[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~]

[Oh please. Death happens all the time, he thinks bitterly (his father, his soldiers, his friends), and it's better to get used to it.]

Some things are worse than death. [He'd be more worried about the penalties, come to think of it.] If the Malnosso are going to get involved, I'd like to know what they'd do and why. Hell - maybe knowing the alternative will make everyone a little more eager.

Being bonded to the spirits would likely affect their experiments, if their goal is to send people home by them. It also brings us to another - somewhat evolved form on this one. We aren't purely ourselves anymore.

Besides, we're already aware - and they seem to be aware - that death isn't going to solve anything this time. The last time, they jumped to conclusions and organized ten deaths by shifts before the cure could be prepared and distributed. We've been told that it won't work like that this time. We have the opportunity, for once, to sort this all out ourselves.

I would think that you at least would appreciate that, Shikamaru.

This is not making cooperation with our captors sound any more attractive. I've never find their claims that their ridiculous experiments are to our ultimate benefit at all convincing.

So in effect those cooperating with this exorcism plan may be conspiring with them to remove a potential advantage that belongs only to us, and without solid information on the consequences either way.
wise_maiden: (but we give up easily)

Our issues with the Malnosso are neither here nor there at the moment. We didn't enter into this relationship with the spirits willingly - they are using us to quell their own problems, and we must turn to ourselves to solve it. Something we don't ordinarily have the opportunity to do.
complicatedliar: (all according to plan)

We didn't enter into this relationship with the Malnosso willingly either, and are having this discussion at their direction and under threat of their unnamed consequences. And what do you think will happen if a solution is found they don't like?

Whence a desire for more specific information from that quarter being wise.
endgames: (Whatever)

All I'm interested in is knowing the alternative. It's not the Malnosso I'm worried about killing us at this time.

How reliable would you consider the Malnosso as a source for that information?

Though obviously, it's not in the best interest of the spirits to indicate they will cause us harm.

When they bother to answer something, they usually mean it. They're more likely to brush off your question than lie to your face. I'll take honesty over the answer I want to hear.

I concur.
breezing: (= OH WELL.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-04 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
...I still don't want any of you to die, though.
endgames: (Breathe)

[Ikki's probably one of the few people on this post he can believe to genuine.]

Neither do I, kiddo.

[Or at the least, he doesn't want to this soon.]

[ She's unfailingly genuine about wanting everyone to talk it out and get along. Spirits and hosts alike! It's very, very air nomadic of her. ]

So, we should try all the stuff that isn't about dying or hurting one another! That way everyone can be okay and happy, right? Twila, too.
endgames: (Uh-huh)

Wow, DW switched up my icons on me

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-05 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
That's the ideal.

[Try telling everyone else that though. He'll wait to see what they do first, but he thinks he'll just keep to himself for now.]

lol dw...

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-07 02:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Right! That's absolutely the best one!
endgames: (Shrug)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-08 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Ideal rarely works.
breezing: (= OH WELL.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-08 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
It could if people would be less STUBBORN about things.
endgames: (Side)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-10 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
You'd still have the people who don't care enough, even after that.
breezing: (Default)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-11 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
So we have to make them care, is all!
endgames: (Listening)

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-17 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Lemme know how that goes.
breezing: (- YOU'RE WEIRD.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-18 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Do I have to make YOU care, too?
endgames: (Chuunin: fancy word for 'errand boy')

[personal profile] endgames 2013-06-19 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
My life's on the line too. I care plenty.
breezing: (- sulkity sulk. WELL FINE.)

[personal profile] breezing 2013-06-25 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess. You're just being less...Shikamaru about it than normal!
