Callisto is the one that's hard to get along with... He's pushy and condescending to Gebura, and takes her words his own way. Gebura isn't the sort of person that speaks in doubles, so finding meaning where there isn't any annoys her. I guess he does it a lot. And he told me he likes to make her mad, since it's interesting. Not a lot of people push back against him, maybe.
Elysium... also doesn't get along with him, because they got off on the wrong foot, and it's turned into Callisto wanting to pluck Elysium's feathers. From what I can really tell there, Elysium pushed too much against him, and apparently being in the royal court is... like... if you were against Callisto, you wanted him dead. Even if it was just a disagreement.
He hasn't really acted either way to me, even though I've opposed him. I'm... going to get him to apologize to Elysium, and... I want to figure something out for Gebura, too, but...

Do you... think that it's possible? For all of them to get along.
Yes yes, the man who behaves as if the Universe revolves around him! Even though you've opposed him, perhaps it's because you are at such a lower stature than him it's akin to a kitten hissing. So pathetically cute.
Say that you do manage to get him to apologize, how are you sure it's going to be genuine and real? And not something simply to please you? I highly doubt your feathery companion is going to accept an empty apology.
Unless royalty wants to change, which I highly doubt he's going to for you, I see little to no chance of it being possible. It'd be a different story if he wants to be on good terms with the other two, but it's just you, isn't it? That wants this.
It's too bad Loop can't see the flinch they get. It's good for Siffrin, of course, but Loop would've surely delighted in it. There's a lot to address here, but--
No. Siffrin's hanging up with a clench of his fist. Nevermind, this isn't a ten minute conversation, this is a leaving break early conversation.
(... It's selfish, of course it is, none of them want to get on with each other -- being civil is different, Elyisum had said, but asking them to get along just because you want them to...
... You really wish they would, though. This calling thing really is handy, if only not to see Loop's stupid face.) ]
[ Awww, boo. The hang up isn't surprising. How convenient it is to be able to do that when they aren't face to face. Loop can already imagine what kind of face he's likely making. Reality hurts, doesn't it?
It is a bit satisfying, even with that mingling bitterness. Hmmm... no, they'll leave it at that. Give it time to mull it over. ]

[ How very, very selfish of you. ]
