[ 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.

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.

Choso... aren't you trying to eat the dragon too?

[gimu]

yes.
but i am also full of toxins.
you are full of elf.
there is a difference.

[picky]

[ FULL OF ELF ]

Toxins???

[gimu]

my blood is toxic. it will poison anything that it infects.

[picky]

Oh

Well, that's very sweet, but please don't poison Laios with your blood...

[gimu]

that is ok. i won’t. he will not survive it.

[picky]

[ HELP ]

It's that strong??
Well um
Please don't poison him in general...

[gimu]

truth be told i have never tried it out on normal humans so i’m uncertain about its efficacy, but i have no doubts it will destroy him in particular immediately on contact.

[picky]

What makes him so different??

[gimu]

the sun cooked him like a crab in okinawa. his flesh was not meant to withstand great forces.

[picky]

Yeah, it really did.
I want to say Laios isn't weak, but he did get taken out by a stomachache after eating a small parasite when he shouldn't have...

[gimu]

he what

[picky]

He ate a parasite
He didn't wait until it was cooked first
There was a smaller parasite inside... It ate at his stomach for a while

[gimu]

wh
why
how is he still alive???

[picky]

I had to keep healing him overnight until the parasite finally died

[gimu]

!
if i had not come to shade him, he would have burnt to a crisp!

[ this big pale man!!! how are they not extinct!? ]

[picky]

You're definitely right about that
Thanks for taking care of him, by the way

hER FACE

[gimu]

as an outsider his well-being is now my obligation to maintain. i will continue to do my best.

but he seems good at cooking, so it isn’t all terrible.

[picky]

You don't have to take care of him just because we're on the same team!

[gimu]

shouldn’t i? his culinary knowledge is expansive. it is my duty to defend everyone unfortunate enough to get the LILITH treatment.

[picky]

I do think we should help each other out, but I'm not sure if I'd call it a duty...
You're learning how to cook from him?

[gimu]

not yet but he offered to grill eels for me. when it happens, i intend on watching how he does it.

[picky]

Sounds fair
I didn't know you wanted to learn how to cook!

[gimu]

i do, i think.

i want to make delicious things for our companions to enjoy. is this strange?

[picky]

[ A twisty, warm feeling rises in her chest. She smiles without thinking. ]

No, it isn't
It's very good of you!
Can I try some? I've been baking recently, so maybe we can trade.
