FAMILY MEETING 2.0
Who: Everyone. All Y'all. You Cannot Escape.
What: Info share because I know y'all got the plot
When: Late August, post Flower-Murdering
Where: The Inn
Warnings: triggers should be tagged appropriately in post headers! please and thank you!!
[Gnosis has government assigned himself "guy who bothers everyone about the plot" this time around. He craves information. You have information. You will give the information up during what he's calling a Town Hall, but was previously called a Family Meeting.
People who do not show up for the "what the fuck just happened this month" meeting will not be forcibly dragged into it, but will receive the most Disdainful, Judgemental look. Can you truly stand to be judged so harshly by a 35 year old man... no. You cannot. (You probably can actually he's not that intimidating.)
There are no snacks (currently) but there is freshly-brewed tea by Gnosis himself, and there's a framed corkboard he's brought downstairs (presumably out of his room) with notes on it, as well as some of those mysterious photographs that have been taken of everyone that he's asked to have. You know, so he can piece this puzzle together. Once everyone's gathered...]
Let's get started. Some of you have been here longer than others, so I hope you can volunteer information so we can figure out where we are and why, and anything else we later arrivals might have missed from the collective puzzle. Please try to stay on task.
[[ooc: hi hello this is your share-the-plot-ICly log, with the goal of a) catching up new arrivals and b) making sure information circulates ICly to avoid metagaming. which like that hasn't been a problem but you know, just in case. if you've never done one of these before they function a bit like this where everyone shares important info they've discovered with the class.]]

Hmm okay well, if youre done trying to set your friends boundaries for them I can go figure something else out if you don't mind.

Oh, but I can figure it out if I wanted. The funny thing about humans is that they are always the same - history proves that. Cycling the same antics over and over again, as if they cant get out of the little shit hole they dig themselves in.
[ She leans in a bit, but mindful. She is sure Fel will actually bite behind that bark, unlike Elsword. ]
You'll have to make me, because I don't follow rules - I make them.

Well, in that case:
2/2
3/3 i lied

[conveniently
he is saying this after that curse goes out
whoops! oh well! what can you do huh]
no subject
Well, someone has to reign in the dogs, don't they? But BB did raise an excellent point about at least two of us here being magic sources. That's something to keep in mind, I don't mind following up on that with you later.
no subject
I think mine is because I'm a piece of the El.
[does not explain what this means at all.]

[yes he is still holding Elsword, he is not letting go for the rest of this meeting probably]
... Elsword's situation is unique, and not fully understood. The short version is, the El reacts to his presence and at one point tried to absorb him. His abilities are also closely related to the El and produce an unusual amount of El energy. Whether that means he is a piece of the El or became contaminated by it in some other way, he undeniably has a close connection to it.
no subject
Leans on him a bit. Why are you so Tall.]
I willingly entered the El, so that's kind of my bad. [KIND OF] I was able to stabilize it when I did, though, so I don't regret that choice. It made the Illuminous Phenomenon worse, but the world is a lot safer... so it's okay. I don't mind.
[Probably because he lacks the capacity to mind.
Anyway "the world is a lot safer" except Ain is out there blowing shit up so maybe not—]

( "i don't mind", hmmmm. )
We'll revisit that last bit another time.
Wellsprings are naturally-occurring in born-magic beings in my world- usually you're either a Wellspring or you have an Affinity, which ties you to a specific element or aspect. ... Iiii'm both. My mother's family worshiped magic as a whole and did a lot of experiments to increase the magic within the bloodline- unfortunately, they got me and couldn't handle a Wellspring with an Affinity for misfortune, though.
THE GIRLS ARE FIGHTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[ There is nothing more thrilling then learning the consequence of your own actions - for someone like BB. Though, in truth - this faulted her into a branch of miscalculations as she did not think someone could alter her own syntax with ease. BB takes a moment where her calculative values have now been upsurge by a greater authority - interesting. Something nearly impossible since currently due to the surface of HER, Earth. Having been bleached, and the issue within Marina's Trench having occurred. BB assumed full authority over the Moon Cell - even the Near side of the Moon.
What literally concurs upon the woman's cursed words towards BB. Is an actual rewriting of her systems. For a human - perhaps you could blend the lines of grey between the words Fel says - however, to bear some authority over the moon. Then to give a command to a system of the moon - this was all too black and white.
The system rewrites, her once initial capacity to have made herself capable of killing humans. Now turns into values of which, she is unable to so much touch them.
ERROR://
System has detected a conflict and overlap:
SAKURA.AI performs nursing functions and requires to execute physical modifications with individuals.
System message continues:
WORD ANALYSIS: UNTOWARD
VALIDATION STATUS: INCONCLUSIVE
System message continues: DIMINISHING OTHER PARAMETERS. PERMITTING: Lay an untoward hand upon another without full permission, and face burns of a thousand suns within your blood. Only in true defense of one's self or another may this be null - - ERROR: "and to twist this intent will draw one's self into ruin." Such actions are classified as unfeasible, as the divine core intervenes to override this granted permission. Furthermore, SELF MODIFICATION renders this action unachievable. ]
Ahhhh, how annoying.
[ BB makes a face, she is kind of looking to the side not paying attention to Fel. Attempting to reign in the issues infiltrating her systems.
System message continues: Protocol concerning the authorization for lethal actions, when necessitated for protection, intersects with the newly implemented function. Permissible permissions granted solely for acts of self-defense through any allowed forms of contact. ]
Blablablabla, fine -
[ BB looks rather ominous at this point, peering over towards the other with a slight smile. ]
Interesting, your relationship with the moon is a darling thing. You forgot something though - about that.
[ She winks at her. ]
It's okay though, I'll behave because you showed BB something so cool for now~~
