WEEK 6 - LOBELIA

[foundationmods]

Six weeks.

They had been here for that long, and still...the game was continuing.
Yet, it felt like they were finally about to reach the end of it...
Just a little longer. 🗈

Still, things were just the same as they had been the past few weeks.

The goats and servants were still around, and so too were the witches.
Yet, it felt like this week would be the week they would finally get all the pieces to the puzzle.
But...could they solve it?

Only time would tell.

MEETING TIME!!!

[goldenmaniac]

[Takumi gathers everyone up as best he can: can you resist these puppy dog eyes? No, you can not.

Once he does he... climbs up on the table]

Okay so... I know Watanuki-san chose me for moral reasons, but... I'm not great at speeches. But I'll try.

I know we've all been through hell this past month and change. I know a lot of us have people that we lost over that time we would do almost anything to get back. Fuck, I'll be honest! When she made that offer I thought of Syaoran. Of Wheatley and Sherlock too! Hell, even Anon so I could try and understand what was going through his damn head. I'm sure you all thought similar things.

But there's a reason this is being put on the table now: Nirrti needs us to turn on each other to keep this Witch personae intact. How many Peices are left or who they are isn't the point- it's our intent. Our will that's going to make the difference here. And we're so damn close... so please, whoever has already told her a target. Or is going to later... think it through. That's all I can ask you.

[He sits with a huff]

Uhm... we should brainstorm her True Name too. I tried to summon the Witch they went to visit: Lambdadelta. But she only sent me a note and... a lot of candy (please take some by the way). She confirmed that Nirrti and Watanuki both came to see her this weekend, and that we... really messed Nirrti up. And that she's watching, so don't do anything weird.

Anything else people wanna talk about, now's a good time for it.

[excavated]

[ useless comment is useless but Caim is here and looking surprised for a second that he said fuck before going back to looking mostly impassive but he's here to listen maybe with popcorn (he absolutely has popcorn) ]

[keydomhearts]

[ Sora dumps snacks on to a table before climbing up to sit next to Takumi on his table. ]

I have a couple of things. Or maybe a few..?

[ Ticking off his fingers for a moment as he tilts his head. Then he just shrugs before continuing on. ]

First is, I was told we will be getting the final piece of the puzzle soon! And Watanuki confirmed that for everyone earlier.

There may be hints to her true name already, but I'm not really good at that. Maybe if we put our heads together, we can figure it out! I know we can do it.

[ They just need to really think or really look. ]

If all fails, I can still unlock that part of her that remembers! Watanuki said if it'll come down to it, he will unlock my powers to let me do that.

[ He taps his chest to indicate his heart. ]

I also got The Book back. It's safe, don't worry about it!

Just remember all the bonds and friends we have made here. We can solve this! I know we can.

[fullbodied]

Thinking back to the story from before.

Nirrti's name was given to her by her mom, it was dear to her. So it's gotta be meaningful-- and probably not something like a typical colonial name. So no Anne to match my Ann.

[she's joking, but she's tired.]

[respring]

'Nirrti' is the name of a Hindu goddess...and in the book, Nirrti-san's mother looked foreign. Is it possible her true name is from India?

[youkaiwatch]

That's all good news. Did you still want me to hold onto the book, or do you want to take care of it?

[keydomhearts]

Yeah, I think it'll be safest with you. Besides, I told them I'd give it to you.

[ Both Anon and Sherlock ]

[goldenmaniac]

Oh hey, can I borrow the book from you later? I'll be careful with it.

[keydomhearts]

Yeah, that'll be fine. I just have to get it to Emi later on.

[ Since promises to keep. ]

Thinking of trying something?

[fullbodied]

Watanuki told you why he picked you?

[she sounds a little miserable.]

He dodged the question when I asked.

[goldenmaniac]

In a really roundabout way, way back when he was still Bird-san.

Maybe the reason he got you is something embarrassing for him... hmmm...

[fullbodied]

I would have said "he only picked me because he thought I was hot." But he's told me that much before. So, that can't be that embarrassing.

[keydomhearts]

It's probably because you have guts! And you're pretty.

[fullbodied]

The pretty part deeeeefinitely factored into it.

But I'm glad there might have been other things.

[oceanicbutterfly]

I assumed it was for your leadership skills.

[?????]

[fullbodied]

Whaaaaaaat?

[she rubs the back of her head with a nervous bit of laughter]

I've never led anything in my life. If anything, that's why he picked Akira.

[aleph_armed]

Wait, I thought he said he would only discuss the ones that weren't "in the game" anymore.

For the record, I'm assuming he picked you for how good you are at pushing forward.

[fullbodied]

Did he?

And I had no clue you thought that about me, Gebura.

[incrediblystressedout]

You already heard my idea. Which was pretty much all of the above, I'm just bad at explaining it.

[sotoshini]

[ Maybe another useless comment, but Natsuno is here too on the periphery of the meeting. Looking bored, sleepy, or maybe both. ]

[keydomhearts]

[ FRIENDO FRIENDO HI ]

[sotoshini]

[ Blink, blink.

....after a long pause, Sora will get an awkward wave. ]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[To nobody's surprise, Vinea is here. To... possibly some number of people's surprise, I don't know, she gives an audible sigh of relief when Takumi says the name Lambdadelta.]

[aleph_armed]

[...So, what, did everyone know about this second witch but her?]

[oceanicbutterfly]

[It's a demon thing.]
