Hello! Everyone!! Good news!!! I prayed to Braphine and it looks like she fixed the app, so it should take you straight to the Nekyia dorms where you can arrive safe and sound (˶ˆᗜˆ˵)

She also said she included an extra surprise? (°□°；) I still don't know what she meant by that, but... I think it should probably be fine! Probably!!

As always, please let me know if there is any other way I can assist (≧▽≦)/

[OOC: So the good news is, Mina has prayed to the goddess Braphine to fix the Nekyia app! Characters who use the app to visit the alternate world will find themselves deposited in the Nekyia version of the dorms, a safe zone from which they can venture into other parts of that alternate world.

The bad news is, that's not all the goddess did. Unbeknownst to characters, she has gifted certain characters with a sense of camaraderie - in this case, by lowering the emotional walls people place between themselves and others. This manifests in unfiltered honesty - not compulsively, not even through a feeling one might fight against, but a simple feeling of such ease and comfort around other player characters that allows the honest truth to slip out as naturally as anything else they may normally say to a trusted confidant, no longer having to worry about matters of image or secrecy. This is an optional effect - feel free to play with it in any threads taking place from 8/17 to 8/23! It may also wear off before then if so desired, or take effect on and off during that time period - whatever suits your needs to wring fun details out of your characters.

As a reminder, if you have unlocked them, Level 10 skills are available on all threads taking place today and onward!]

Okay well her understanding of humanity might not be the greatest but she's really doing her best for you! I'm sure of it!!

cw drug mention

Good to know that you think drugging people to behave vulnerably is an alright thing for the goddess and her followers.

[ He thinks these are the same. And it's not like Fuyu would care being accused of this, but this is someone who tries to be nice. ]

Re: cw drug mention

[linkmakers]

...Drugging people? What are you talking about?

[ushirono]

That's how it felt. Magical or whatever, it's still the same.

[linkmakers]

?????????

[ushirono]

The surprise that you mentioned, girl. I assumed you were stupid, but you don't need to prove it to my face.

[linkmakers]

I really have no idea what you're talking about!

[ushirono]

[ Good news, Mina. You are being freed. He has a different target now. ]

[linkmakers]

[help this isn't what she wanted either]

Ohoho, so this is why my cute little peon was so distressed. My, what an ungrateful group this is.

[ushirono]

[ BINCH, IS THIS YOU also i really like the font format it's so pretty ]

Says our kidnapper. Fuck you.

[ He doesn't even bother telling her to send him back where he was. He already got the notion that she can't do that... if this is really the goddess anyway. ]

[linkmakers]

Such hurtful words! My little patsy's prayers make much more sense now, hohoho ♥

You will be returned when the time is right, to the right time! Can it truly be considered a kidnapping if you were never gone?

[ushirono]

Kidnapping is an action. I was right to think you were stupid since you don't even know the basics of cause and effect.

[linkmakers]

Then let us call it "borrowing!" Yes, I like the sound of that much more ♥

Fret not, my dear Fuyu Ushirono. This task is well within your capabilities. And then, once it is complete, you may return to your life just as you left it. As they say, "no harm, no foul!"

As an aside, isn't that such a cute saying? Human language is so full of funny little phrases like that, it's quite charming!

[ushirono]

Disgusting. I'm not your dear anything.

But you must be so easy if you're charmed by small things like that. Why are you even a goddess? Why do you even exist with how stupid you are?

[linkmakers]

Because humanity exists. Because community exists. Because acceptance is hoped and prayed for.

Would you prefer the hearts of men were swayed instead by a god with no interest in their well being? Such is the inescapable nature of this world, my dear.

[ushirono]

Gods are just people with too much power. You don't get to decide what you think is best for my well-being.

[linkmakers]

Oooh, spicy! How delightful.

I would apologize for deciding humans are best alive, but I am not in fact sorry :)

[ushirono]

Well-being and living are two different things. With how your city plunged into what it is today, maybe they do deserve to die.

[linkmakers]

And cede territory to my foe? I think not!

[ushirono]

Isn't it because of your mismanagement that led to this problem in the first place? Repent.

[linkmakers]

Mismanagement? Oh, dear Fuyu, you are sadly mistaken!

I'm sure that degenerate god saw my lovely temple and decided to grow his own influence here in a slight against me. Still, one must be diligent about pulling weeds out from the root before they make themselves into larger pests, ohoho ♪

[ushirono]

Then what is the other one a god of? Apathy?

[linkmakers]

Conflict and discord. Nasty, awful things.

[ushirono]

Humans can't live without conflict, so it sounds like you'll be stuck with him forever then.
