@ nice toy (locked to the non au'd folks)

[fursuit]

so you've all noticed that about half of us are totally fucked in the head right

best I can tell they think they've always lived here? in this world I mean. kinda hard to ask too much more than that without looking like you're the one that's insane but man

apparently they've also got backstories for all of us??? so how the fuck am I supposed to know that shit???

anyways. wanted to toss this out there for discussing and strategizing how to deal with this fuckin mess. I figure once we kill this kaiju they'll all go back to normal but

I dunno. be gentle with them. I know that's ironic coming from me but whatever

lemme know if there's anyone I missed to add to this filter.

(( ooc ; this is a discussion post about the people with au'd memories for those who do not have those memories! ending up on this filter is an icly handwaved process, so feel free to jump in if this applies to your character. threadjacking is very much open and welcome!

there's also a sister post for the au'd characters here, so if you're looking for that, go for it! ))

Process of elimination.

Anyone try to take these guys out of the castle or far away to see if distance from here has any effect? Because that could determine if this is some kind of ranged spell or something else.

[the_fourteenth]

That's a good idea. It's not exactly safe beyond the castle walls from what we're told, but perhaps Kaga-san could help. Her with her aircrafts could potentially fly some people around not only to scout, but to see if it has an effect.

I'm willing to attempt it. There's a ruined city some way out, what's left of London I think, I could fly some of them out that way and see what happens.

"And we can just crash the things if anyone acts up. "

No.

[gavehead]

And if they don't compl nicely, we take them by force.

[harboredfeelings]

That seems ill advised. And unnecessary. Just tell them we need people for a scouting mission on the ground I'm sure we'llget volunteers.

"And then the violence."

I said no.

[gavehead]

So if they say no, we just let them be, and then make no progress.

Got it.

[harboredfeelings]

Look, I have no issue bending the truth to accomplish this. But I refuse to make anyone do it against their will.
Besides you'll just give them even more reason to be on edge if we use force.

Putting all the rest aside you'll just make more enemies for yourself once this is all over. Don't make this worse than it already is.

"Awww, don't be like that. Think of how much fun the bloodshed would be."

I'm ignoring you.

[gavehead]

Trust me, I don't want to hurt anyone. That wasn't the idea, but.. you can definitely tie someone up and take them by force without causing much damage.

[harboredfeelings]

Physically, maybe. The damage to trust won't recover easy though, even when we do bring them back to their senses.

I sure as hell wouldn't trust the thug who's first fall back was rope based kidnapping.

@CURSE

[gimu]

be nice.

[gavehead]

They can be nice by going along with our idea. Otherwise, we may not make any progress.

[gimu]

just be smart about it is all i want
i do not wish for them to be injured if they don't have to be

[gavehead]

What do you take me for?
Some psycho that ambushes people with a sword?

_{[ don't worry about beta dirk this ain't about him ]}

I never said anything about hurting them, just.. doing what I could to take them by force.

[the_fourteenth]

No?

[gavehead]

Yes.

[the_fourteenth]

I sincerely doubt that will be necessary.

Strange memories or not, they are still our teammates and allies.

[gavehead]

Say they refuse, then what? We make no progress? That's what I am saying.

[the_fourteenth]

We'll worry about that if and when it happens. No need to get ahead of ourselves.
