[ Soon after LILITH hands the decision to Outsiders, Ratio makes a post on the ocular network. ]

I hope you have all had ample time to rest from the aftermath of the kaiju's attack. However, it is time to turn our attention to the future. We have been given an opportunity to decide our next step.

1: Stay in Seoul and assist the city.
2: Chase after the escaped Imugi.

I imagine opinions may be divided on this front, so I would like to open the forum for discussion. Please state your choice and provide thorough reasoning for your decision. You will not convince anyone with a half-baked argument. You may respond to any comment as you please, but remember to stay civil and do not resort to derogatory or inflammatory comments. Should you break this rule, I will revoke your comment permissions.

Keep in mind that your choice will have a grave effect on the people of this planet. It is not one to be made lightly, so do not treat it with levity.

You may use the form below to keep your comment clear and easy to read.

<b>Decision:</b> State your decision here. <b>Reason:</b> Be concise. Bullet form preferred. <b>Other:</b> If you have any other comment to make, do so here.


[ ooc: This is meant to be a mingle text log! Feel free to comment on each other's posts, yadda yadda go wild! Also the form is only a recommendation, feel free to disregard Ratio's instructions and annoy him. ]

[ he ain't filling no form, sir. ]

if we don't kill it now, it will return to seek sweet vengeance.
we should chop off its head and get it over with.

@clown prince

[uncourteous]

You say the word "vengeance" with such conviction that I can't help but wonder why.

Is there a tale to go along with this suggestion?

[ revenge one of his favorite topics. ]

[nutkick]

well, they seem very territorial.

[ please don't make him explain that part. ]

they will come back for sure.

[uncourteous]

So you are claiming this comes from pure intuition?

I was hoping you had a personal story to tell the world.

[nutkick]

i don't have a story to share, but i will do the same if someone starts throwing hands and taking my space.

wouldn't you do the same, clown? [ for once he's not just throwing jabs. it's your name! ]

[uncourteous]

What a peculiar way to type "your highness, Callisto Regulus, crown prince and sun of the empire." I will pardon your mistake this time, Sir "pochita."

To answer your question, I suppose I would. Perhaps, I would need to murder every single person.

[nutkick]

[ ... well, this is a mad twist that denji did not see coming. this is the cons of being around so many chill men since he came here, he forgot this type is still around and breathing. ]

there is only one person in here that i would call 'your highness' and it's not you.

[uncourteous]

Oh? Do tell. Spare no details on the man who totes around with such a title.

[nutkick]

oh, i can't share his name. it is my duty to protect him at all costs and i don't trust you.

i could tell you that he always has an 'explosive' aura.

[uncourteous]

Protect him? I am wounded to hear that you misunderstand me so.

You act as if I were planning to harm him.

[nutkick]

as his loyal knight, i have to be prepared.

[ okay, he's fooling around now. ]

so you won't come after him?

[uncourteous]

You are a knight?

[ #doubt ]

My good sir knight, do I appear the type?

[nutkick]

a knight with three strong blades!

[ #DoNotDoubtHim. ]

you kinda do.
... i could be wrong, though.

[cranekin]

If it's going to return for us, then why bother chasing it?
Let it come to us.

[nutkick]

we shouldn't give it a chance to recover and return with new tricks.

[cranekin]

And what about our own recovery?
Pursuing while our forces are exhausted will only put us in more danger.

[nutkick]

some of us can recover on the spot.
the others who are exhausted or too weak to put up a decent fight should stay behind.

[cranekin]

How many are you willing to leave behind?

[nutkick]

i don't think about it this way.
i just know i can fight, and i want that kaiju dead.

you'll stay behind, right?

[cranekin]

I'll go where I'm commanded.

[nutkick]

hmm.
okay, let me fix the question.

what do you want to do?

[cranekin]

(The way he doesn't want to answer is this but he can't leave Denji on read...)

I don't want to abandon anyone again.

[nutkick]

[ this is a tough one now. he wants tsuru to stay behind where it's safe, but- ]

aki is coming along, and i don't want him to.
it would help if you were around, too.

[cranekin]

He is?

(Hmmmm. Well, he won't speak about that.)

You think I won't come?

[nutkick]

you will come.

[ smiling behind the screen. he knows you care ... ]
