[ 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. ]

A month. [She knows how it sounds, but there's a good reason why it takes that long. A divine spirit's needs are in a category of their own.] There are multiple ways to make it faster. The most efficient and lasting solution would be for me to find someone to establish a contract with.

[ The problem is that a master-servant relationship could be very taxing on the one providing mana... And if this works as it would in her world, she needs someone she can trust unconditionally. She's not giving three command spells and access to her dreams to just anyone! ]

Temporary solutions exist, but I would never stoop as low as to kill humans for mana. [She bets Tezcatlipoca would, if he even has mana problems to begin with.] There is another way, but it is so disgraceful, so undignified and so unbelievably shameful I refuse to even acknowledge it as a possibility.

[ The old Fate/ special™. Simply mentioning it exists makes her feel dirty! ]

Like a sage that can heal you.

(It sounds similar to how things work back home for him, though, he's not as dependent on the saniwa for power. He can sustain himself fine and doesn't need their power to fight. If anything, he only needs their power to heal or grow stronger.

The more she continues, the more difficult their situation sounds, though. From what he knows about Ereshkigal, he can't imagine her killing a human to steal their mana (power?).

As for the last option,)

Another way? (He's confused. What could it be? It's not his fault for not being able to guess. This doesn't exist in his world!!! If he knew, he wouldn't ask!!!) Is it really worse than killing a human?

[queenofkur]

[ ... He didn't get it? W-Well, she can sympathize, if she was in his position she probably wouldn't get it either. The thought that this is even a possibility should never cross the mind of anyone who is sane. She's proud of you, Tsuru.

But alas, she must curse him with this knowledge. She can't just avoid replying to him, nor can she be vague lest he be left wondering what she meant. ]

Well...

[ There's a delay. H-How is she supposed to say this? How is she supposed to explain it? She's literally the least appropriate person for this! ]

This other way

It involves doing the things that should only ever be done by

By two people deeply and passionately in love

The sort of things that should never be spoken of to anyone ever

[ Please please understand Tsuru, she's not sure she can survive having to say more than that! ]

1/???

[cranekin]

(Well? He's waiting... he's eager to learn.)

[cranekin]

(Okay, so like???)

Do you mean this "true love's kiss?"
Like in the rat king's stories?

(Disney movies. He means Disney movies.)

[cranekin]

(But wait... that last line combined with the first.......)

[cranekin]

(He isn't a fool. He isn't naive.

HE IS VERY AWARE OF WHAT HE JUST ASKED ERESHKIGAL.)

[cranekin]

stop

STOPS TSOTP STOP STOP STOP

end....

[cranekin]

Pretend I never asked!
I didn't mean to ask so forwardly!

(HE IS JUST A HEIAN GUY.)

[queenofkur]

[ P-Poor Tsuru... Poor her! They shouldn't have to deal with the knowledge of such things. He's right, they need to forget! Is there a hole she can crawl in to hide forever? Please? ]

asked?

you did not ask anything

i cant remember you asking anything

flowers

we were talking about flowers

thats all

thats all

[ ereshkigal.exe has encountered a problem and needs to restart ]

[cranekin]

(STOP HE IS HEIAN. FLOWERS ARE METAPHORS. THEY HAVE MEANINGS.)

Just white lilies and roses!
I'll offer a surprising display!

(He'll make the purist and most apologetic arrangement.)

[queenofkur]

[ SHE KNOWS THE MEANING FOR FLOWERS AND COLORS...

... And she's fainted before she can read his message. She needed the sleep anyway. She can't handle that many emotions so quickly! ]

[cranekin]

(Look.... Tsurumaru Kuninaga would 100% take down a god in a Costco parking lot but this is NOT THE GOD HE WANTED TO TAKE OUT.)

Not here

[curingidiocy]

[ He reads every comment on this post







And this is something he never wanted to know ]

NOT HERE? BUTH?H?

[hitokiller]

( mental note: never mention you're a servant to anyone now. )

sorry. again.

[fursuit]

hahahahahahaha

you're such a prude

[queenofkur]

I AM NOT A PRUDE

THIS IS A SERIOUS TOPIC AND I AM ADDRESSING IT WITH PROPER GRAVITY

[fursuit]

sure you're not

proper gravity though? come on. not necessarily anything special about fucking

[queenofkur]

IT IS A BEAUTIFUL THING BORN FROM TRUE AND PURE LOVE BEING TWO PEOPLE

OF COURSE YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND

[fursuit]

you're so mean to me

[ lol, lmao, ]

course I get it. can be that. can also just be for fun

hence: prude

[queenofkur]

NO

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

YOU TWIST WHAT IS MEANT TO BE A BEAUTIFUL ACT OF LOVE

DEVIANT!

PERVERT!!

DEGENERATE!!!

sighs. nsfw

[fursuit]

wow

1) you’re setting yourself up for failure with an attitude like that

2) you’re also just missing out practically speaking. mana top off via sucking dick is convenient. or eating pussy if that’s more your preference

[curingidiocy]

This is a public forum. Explicit comments will not be tolerated. This is your first and final warning.

[queenofkur]

[ There are no replies.

She's fainted. She's now dreaming of cute flowers. She's in her happy place. Happy place. Happy place. ]

im sorry...

[30storieshigh]

It is not constructive to provide false information amongst allies. Dick is to be avoided, as I have been told 🫤.
