I have to say that "you have so much power but you keep failing, how dare you make demands of me" is not a very convincing response to "hey why don't you let us use all our power?"

NK doesn't seem too happy about it, either.

He knows he's sending her to become another disaster stone in Cucumber's collection, but he's doing it anyway. Someday we'll probably find out why!

I think it's more the fact that he's realised he's not friends with any of the masters despite 500,000 years of camaraderie.

I interpreted it as regret over the lovely situation he's forced to keep putting all his disaster masters in. Considering he then gives her a significant hint, I don't believe I'm too far off on that.

The nonsensical response from before seemed to be more like a reminder for her to get back into her role.

Yes lets switch away from the decent conversation about characters themes and/or atmosphere to instead bemoan that Gigi doesn't love a website forum consisting of a wide variety of different subforums with their own subcultures.

She did. I'm not really sure what the point of that edit was but I get the same read either way: NK and Rose basically are friends but the demands of their job requires they not act the part. Which is what she is lamenting in a passive aggressive kind of way.

"Your own anniversary" was changed to "your own wedding" - I guess to make it clear which anniversary they're talking about and also that they're being more hypothetical and NK isn't married.

Parfait, Peridot, and now Rosemaster. NK's biggest weakness: girls being sad at him. I bet he keeps being defeated by the ever-present little sister character giving him puppy eyes and threatening to cry and it will be all his fault for being mean.
