[Locked to Residents]
Greetings, Luceti. I see you've managed to open the proverbial Pandora's Box. I was wondering when that would happen.
More seriously, however- no doubt most of you have noticed the widespread issue that's resulted from that decision. Some might even recall a similar experience occurring years ago. If you're concerned about the affected residents meeting their unfortunate ends once again, well, that's unlikely. Death wouldn't be a particularly beneficial alternative to what you've unleashed this time.
However, there's still the matter of sorting out the spirits now. I'm interested in hearing what you lot have already tried when it comes to dealing with what you've unlocked, but my advice for getting the black spirit to relinquish control is to let the rest do the work for you. Last time this happened, I was able to fix it, but it's beyond my power now.
Discuss it amongst yourselves, trade your theories; I'm sure you'll come up with something. I'll help with what I can. Sooner would be better, though- I make no promises that my former comrades won't take measures to deal with you if this isn't resolved internally within a few weeks.
[ooc: arright kids, true to John's word, he'll be overseeing the discussion. He won't be telling people how to fix this problem, but he'll answer whatever questions he can and give some advice here and there. see what you can work out amongst yourselves and feel free to ping me if I'm needed and don't show up. if nothing comes up within a week, we'll throw you a more obvious bone or two. tally ho~]

Thanks.
[A pause, and then she adds:] How was Twila locked away? Can it be done again?

Why would they possess people? Does Twila have a reason or is this what it does normally? But this is not what the other spirits do normally if last time was caused by a "worldwide shift." If we are supposed to "let the rest do the work for
youus" are the other spirits doing this because they need to possess people to do it? Is there another reason?[And then more quickly, almost as a scrawl:] I am sorry for asking so many questions.
[written]
- We don't know Twila's reasoning at present, unless those under her influence have gained any insight for it. The only thing I've been able to reason is that she had been locked away for a long time, and this is her way of making her presence known. It's been said that her nature is unbalanced - chaotic. So in a sense, this could just be a natural reaction to gaining freedom and wanting to spread her influence over us and the environment.
- As for last time, we were told that it was a worldwide shift that we should have been protected from, but the barrier had been cracked and we were left vulnerable. What happened to us as a result was described as an "evolution", but we weren't given much more information than that, or why the organization wanted to kill us for it if it was not properly taken care of. So we don't know why they bonded to us last time, though this time we are aware that there are different circumstances.
- We don't know the reasons, which is why we've entered this dialogue to begin with. When ... one spirit is bonded with you, it's impossible to communicate with them - at this point, their will is overlapping ours. And I've found that I can't contact any of the others in the usual way, either.
When I haven't been-- So perhaps ... there is something more they can do by acting through us than they can on their own, because they do not have physical bodies, or even the means to speak.- Which ... I wonder if something would happen were someone to try and communicate with them in the normal way. Someone unaffected by this but has had some experience with contacting the spirits would be my best suggestion. I don't know if they would try to reach out to someone they haven't made any bonds with, but then again, they may be possessing those who haven't communicated with them at all.

I think Chien's unaffected too but I dunno if he knows spirit stuff.

I have never heard the spirits before, but my wings have also grown. So they are also possessing people who have not communicated with them.

I'm not sure if this'll help, but it looks like Twila's also affecting people who aren't really... suited, I guess is the word? Maybe it's something internal, like... I don't know. If they're not really happy, or... depressed. Or something else.
Maybe it's not just darkness and chaos and all that. [Maybe it would've come to him, too, if he hadn't gone home.]
[written]
There's a lot more to the story than what we can see on the surface.
[written]
I'm sorry, I really don't know a lot about any of this. [He'd largely been kept inside, being unaffected, and being warned away from a lot of things by either his original or the people he's living with.]

Maybe? She is possessing people, after all.

Chaos, like light, dark, order, fire, etc. are all part of nature. They are neither by their existence good or evil. They simply are.

[Though when you have chaos and darkness and locked up and possessing people, it's hard for her to suspect otherwise. But she isn't going to argue the point since most of her reasoning is based on fictional stories.]
