[ 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. ]

one in each arm and one on my head.

[ when the truth starts to sound like utter lies. ]

okay.
i shall wait to see this 'generosity' in the coming weeks before i decide to share the name of my king.
deal?

[uncourteous]

[ that definitely sounds like dogshit if he's ever heard it.

but, that seems too obvious to call out. ]

On? ... Where?

You would keep royalty waiting? You have an odd way of showing goodwill.

[nutkick]

[ using the word 'dogshit' is very barbaric of you. are you sure you're a prince? fake news. ]

my head.
yes, you shall wait until i trust you enough to introduce you to the prince around here.

[uncourteous]

Where on your head would the blade lie?

[ why is this already giving him a headache...

almost as if he was the one with a blade in his head, jk. ]

Do princes normally hide behind their knights like this? They are beginning to sound more like a coward than a royal. [ step 1 in how to garner trust from those around you. ]

[nutkick]

one day you will find out.

[ why did that come off somewhat threatening? denji figured with all the kaiju attacks, all outsiders were fated to find each other on the battlefield at some point.

anyway- ..... the audacity? ]

yOU TAKE THAT BACK.
don't call him a coward! you clown!

[uncourteous]

Oh? Are you up for casual threats now? What happened to the "trust" you once spoke of?

[ damn, that escalated.

he 100% took it as a threat, yeah. ]

The more up in arms you are about it, the more I believe I am right.

[nutkick]

... that wasn't a threat, though?????

[ a pause. ]

i take it back. it WAS a threat!
apologize for calling him a 'coward' right now!!

[uncourteous]

Was it not? If it wasn't, you would be quite skilled in shaking people down in a dark alley.

[ a natural... at threats. ]

Unfortunately, I have never heard of that word. [ apologize, what is that? ] Also, do you believe people should make invisible amends for speaking their minds?

[nutkick]

are you trying to flatter me?
it's too late. it won't work on me!

[ lowkey did, but shh. ]

don't speak your mind around me, then.

[uncourteous]

It's less flattery and more deeming you a threat to society.

[ lol. ]

And how would you go about ensuring that?

[nutkick]

[ csm spoilers: he is right. so denji will ignore that first line. ]

i don't know.
stuff a sock inside your mouth?

[ he was very careful with this one. very, very careful. ]

[uncourteous]

That would be considered treason I hope you realize.

Unless you want your limbs chopped off, I would suggest another method.

[ he acts like this is a choice... ]

[nutkick]

shoving a sock down your mouth is treason?
a bit dramatic, don't you think?
it's just a tiny sock.

[uncourteous]

Do you think that argument would hold up in the royal court?

Should we see? We can always do a simulation.

[nutkick]

[ this guy. god. ]

in this 'simulation'
can i shove a real sock down your throat first?

i have to commit the crime before facing the judge right.

[uncourteous]

You must be quite attached to that sock.

But, I would think it would begin from you being put on trial for attempting to lay your hands on a royal. But, considering your history of supposedly caring for another imperial, perhaps your sentence could be lighter... ]
