[ 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. ]

You think too highly of my abilities.

[ and, well - ]

Speak plainly.

[uncourteous]

Do I? My memory tells me otherwise.

[ ... ]

I was just thinking your words sounded curiously like concern.

[undrowned]

Yes. I am concerned.

It shouldn't come as a surprise, after everything.

[uncourteous]

You may have a point.

Are you sure of your decision? I do not mean to question you. Rather, I figure it is not an easy decision for most to make. Will you not have regrets?

[undrowned]

I probably will. Men who are keen to disappoint me are a dime a dozen in this place.

[ ah ... ]

The decision is mine to care. You can relieve yourself of whatever turmoil it might give me in the future.

[uncourteous]

Have I disappointed you yet?

I'm wounded to hear that. It seems despite your choice, you have no desire to be less mean to me. Some would label this as being "petty," you know.

[undrowned]

By some, do you mean just yourself? Because that doesn't count.

[ she actually has to think about that question, even if it's just, well. callisto being callisto. ]

1/10.

You're right. It's a valid question, and I retract my previous ranking of 0/10. [ progress! ]

[uncourteous]

I think it would be considered petty by most.

[ ... ]

And the lessons and me trying your cooking hasn't increased it any further? You are a rather harsh judge.

[undrowned]

If you keep working hard, in a few months, you might be back to 6/10. [ hah! ]

[uncourteous]

Here I thought you quite liked my appearance.

What was it that you said...? Like a sunset? [ now that we have that thread, how can he now use it against her. ]

[undrowned]

[ how dare you ]

What does that have to do with anything?

[uncourteous]

Was I wrong?

Or are you admitting to being the type who just flatters anyone?

[undrowned]

You can't bargain with your looks to raise how you rank with me. That's not how it works.

In any case it's not enough for me to overlook your shortcomings.

[uncourteous]

[ was that not what the original post was about???


as much as he'd love to argue that point, it seems entirely pointless when she just seems to double down like that. more importantly— ] Shortcomings? I'm afraid I do not know what you speak of.

But, let's place that aside for now. We should focus on the task at hand, after all. Once this is through, I am sure I will be a proper 10/10 in your eyes, my lady.
