Sssssso, uh, good news, bad news.

Bad news, didn't find Kiko on the trip with Gina.

Good news, definitely needed the vacation. Feel a LOT better. Better than I have in a while.

Bad news, found a weird obviously-experimented-on-monster in the ocean. Possibly something to look into later. Definitely warp-tainted.

Good news, no one was severely hurt, we all made it back safe and sound.

Badgood news: We know what not to do next time!

Goodbad news: Gina uhhhh. Transformed? And I think she hit her 'Monster Puberty', so to speak.

I think I'm gonna have to kill you.

...

Okay, but you're super sturdy, right? You can take a real beating and all that?

[personal profile] remarkablerain 2023-07-08 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. Meet me outside.

You'll survive.

YOU FORGOT THE PART WHERE YOU AND GIGI HUMILATED ME.

I am so going to kick your ass.

[personal profile] danse_etoile 2023-07-08 06:17 pm (UTC)(link)


I'll stomp on the remains.

If you don't die, I'll make sure you wish you did!

I'm glad you found your vacation relaxing. You and miss Briar are quite a team, and I do hope now the incredibly obvious thing that would happen if she was pushed has happened she can be a more robust member of the field team.

Well, when you're through being thrashed I have updates. In the likely case of your demise, I'll prepare my reports for Miss Samasu, who terrifies me enough that I cannot and will not intervene and will respect her claiming OOPARTS in ritual combat.

It wasn't meant to be an official operation, as far as I can tell, drinking with your best friend and fishing up Kiko, should in fact, have been mostly relaxing. Unfortunate that you encountered something out there.

I am glad that her body was still able to transform. Very heartening to hear actually. It was my first working of that kind, and being the child of who she was, the transformation was going to be inevitable. It's wonderful to hear my reshaping of her form did nothing to stop that. I was mildly concerned I had done a poor job.

If Diana kills you, do I report to her seeing as she claimed the mantle?

Oh, excellent.

[Private Message, all OOPARTS staff can see it]
Your German girl has come unglued, but she isn't a danger. And gave express permission if she goes further down the rabbithole of Illusion Magic that she can be put stopped and glued back together as best as we can.

I technically signed NDAs about what she's working on and as far as I can tell her projects have no relevance to the cases at hand. And I would like to not have to fend off LeoCorp lawyers to prove that they do in a court of law in a country that's crumbling, so judges could easily be bought off.

I got access to their labs under a vaguely similar NDA and am fascinated... but that's neither here nor there. While going to 'retrieve' only 'three' of the stones that have been making monsters, I encountered a Tengu named Karasumaru and who was crow themed, because fate loves cruel irony. He was attempting to steal all that LDS had. I hated him. I didn't think I could feel hate anymore.

This clouded my judgement and so he and one crony technically escaped my attempt to rot them all into nothing but fine goop. He is still likely dead for fae tax purposes, I believe. Officially, he managed to make it off with most of the stones and I only have three for my studies into them.

They also don't make myself or my homunculi into monsters, further testing is required and I am accepting volunteers, I have e-mailed the staff with waivers and can reward you with a 'pizza party.'

[Further filtered, Onni's Eyes Only]

Unofficially, the tengu only have one stone. We have everything else that LDS gathered. I plan on returning the three that I am on paper 'borrowing' but the rest are yours to decide what to do with after my rounds of testing are done.

I'm terrible with names. Frankenstein? Fran-kin-steen? Franny?

It's VERY fascinating but I think it has also given me a mild existential crisis, because it may mean I have lost all traces of being human. Oh, and the Tengu rapped some of his boss's overarching plans at me. Vanilla Ice seemed to be a big inspiration for him.

Of course. It's been fun to be out and about in the wide world again, making people scream when they meet my eyes or wildly uncomfortable in general.

[Private-er]
Absolutely. Some seem... Hm, I'll have a better assessment in the coming days, I hope. Since it seems this body can be held in reserve until the Illusion Witches truly get more active. So further fieldwork and all but the most important communications will be testing one of my homunculi. I'll have a list of the six other bodies with my other notes sent up so you can pick one out.

Hello.

Some discussion might need to be had, once your glorious displays of combat have completed.

lanceandram: (Lancea - Affirmative)

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, so you have returned. I hope your battles were marvelous.

You mentioned a Warp-tainted creature in the ocean. The entire ocean is starting to stink of that. Chakram and I have begun seeing those creatures on our regular searches.

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed. The problem has gradually been ramping up, enough that we have been having to speak with the others about the problem, since our land is nestled right in the middle of this.

The ocean is vast, however, and our tactical skills are more geared towards...

"Come at us, first." Which, given our numbers... we can't exactly mount a grand crusade.
lanceandram: (Lancea - Surprise)

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
We can attempt such an endeavor on our next search of the ocean's floor.

Though our MO is generally to decimate all traces of these vile creatures.
lanceandram: (Lancea - Curious)

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
We already search the ocean in the chance that any of our fellows may still be down there, like Scythe was.

We will inevitably cross blades with whatever lurks below. This is simply an additional thought for us to keep in mind.
lanceandram: (Lancea - Overwhelmed)

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Failnaught will inevitably be upset. It's a universal constant until we can find a way to help his mental processes.

But yes, we will try to keep it in mind, at least.
lanceandram: (Lancea - Shy)

[personal profile] lanceandram 2023-07-08 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, we appreciate the concern.
