<X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu chuckles. "We have such cool people at the Union." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Haguro says, "Good afternoon, Miss Amakasu. I'm doing well! And yourself? Have you recovered since the last mission?" <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Heh. I have a huge bruise on my arm from taking that shell, but I'll be fine." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Impressive." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "It wasn't at the time. It took me nearly two hours to be able to get the feeling back." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "How's it going, Tanaka?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Haguro says, "That's good to hear. You performed well, so I'm sure you'll keep improving in no time." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka mm. "Worrisome." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "I need to figure out the right time and place to explain what we discovered in Amarillo." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Oh, right, with the silly aliens." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "At least they're peaceful?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] (Synthesized) Gakupo Kamui says, "Silly? But they're adorable~!" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Yes, they are, but..." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "...well, I only have a suspicion so far." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] (Synthesized) Gakupo Kamui says, "Nothing bad, I hope?" <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Are they? I dunno. Anyway, it seems oddly separate, doesn't it? What do a bunch of silly-looking aliens have to do with the King? Or those weird ladies Ms. Ainsley and Ms. Daidouji talked to." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "That is what I'm trying to figure out. I need to put together all of the seperate pieces of this and figure out how everything intersects. I'd appreciate some input... once Staren or Tomoyo report on what happened yesterday, and provided someone can go and fill in the one blank spot which is to find out what the vehicle gangs are up to." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "I don't mind going, but I think it'd be best if I had backup." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Hmm... Ms. Finna's been acting crazy since two days ago, saying she was bored. Maybe this will get her to calm down." Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu mutters quietly, "And stop howling like a wolf on our band..." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Maybe it's that time of the month." Long distance to Hoshi Amakasu: Ren Tanaka nods. I will see if I can do something tomorrow <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu firmly, "Rude, Tanaka." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "She's a chosen of the Moon goddess or something, right? Maybe the phase of the moon does something." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "... Oh. Oh! I thought--I thought..." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "Yeah. It's okay." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu long-suffering sigh. "Ignore me. I'm an idiot." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "You're not an idiot." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "Also: Ren, you insinuated that /rakshas/ are on Amarillo. I find this /concerning/." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "How sure are you about that?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "...mmmmno. I - hmm." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Wait." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "What's a raksha?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "...Fair folk?" <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Y-yeah, what's a raksha... Fairies?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "To be specific, a variety of 'fairies' which are /not/ the nice kind. But... if you don't know the word raksha, maybe I misunderstood..." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu shivers. "Yeah, tell me about it. I've read all of the Grimm fables." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "What I'm talking about are the Yaoguai." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Frederica says, "Names need not be consistent." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "Yaoguai? That's a new word to me..." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Okay... What's a Yaoguai? That sounds Chinese." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Kimiko Shinobu says, "General word for a demon. More specific in most areas, probably." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Primordial things. Beings that are all wickedness and grace and spite and stories. Born from the song of numbers and the fog of dreams." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Ergh. That sounds way too close to the Shadows for my liking." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "The worst of them all had names like Balor, Theion and Axios." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Okay, so... What makes you believe they're around? Or involved?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Because when we went to... alright, alright, I'm just going to freewheel some ideas here." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "...Sounds like a raksha to me. So, exactly what I feared. *sigh* /Great/. Just great." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "When Staren and Tomoyo went to the place Elvis died, there were things like illusions and brass, and gossamer and essence here and there. Weak and dying, but still." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Staren says, "Brass? I don't recall hearing that having a connection to them..." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "And the aliens said their ship crashed into something that displaced it into Amarillo. I don't have any reason not to trust them, they seem as if they've been caught up in this as much as anyone else." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "What do you get off of murdering one guy, though? It makes no sense. Even if its Elvis." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "I don't know. This is something like what a jigsaw puzzle would be if your sister took a fistful of pieces and ran away and refused to give them back to you." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu giggles. "Is that what having a sibling is like?" <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka says, "Well, I don't know who the sister is in this metaphor. She may be ... allegorical..." <X-Union-Chatter> [7] Hoshi Amakasu says, "Who knows? I'm an only child. Anyway, I guess we'll pick up pieces as we get them." <X-Union-Chatter> [A] Ren Tanaka nods.
