Well, no matter. [ this comes with a rather dramatic sprawl backwards against the actual couch itself. ] I’m here now, aren’t I? My apologies for not further gracing you with my presence.
[ yuri gives up on marking his place in his terrible book and sets it down so he can grab gu yun's hand and turn it over so he can look at gu yun's cactus needle-less palm, and also waggle his fingers for him. ]
I wondered if the pods could fix an injury like that, but somehow seeing it in action is almost more surprising. [ ... ] Harrow's that into bones she's upset you have flesh again? [ grrrrin. ]
Well, we had grand plans where she offered to have it encased in iron. I told her that I was beginning to think she liked me, and she threatened to crush it to powder, though, so.
[ wehehehe. his gremlin energy is as present as ever - he lets yuri do whatever he wants with his hand, wiggling his fingers appropriately. ]
Please. I have a sentinel breathing down my neck about that one. I have no intent to use it to kill -- but it is helpful to have someone to confirm what it was in the event something happened to me.
Otherwise people would get confused, and the last thing we need is more distractions.
[ he laughs, at that, reaching up to pat yuri's hand. ] With an ability like that, you ought to be able to defend yourself just fine. I'll keep your secret.
Whether the powers are doubled up, or every power is distributed in even groups of three. Because four people claimed to share your power, and the Unholy Hunger power.
Either a couple of people were lying, or a lot of people chose to keep their powers quiet. Grace, Medb, Mahito, Yuel, Sheila, Endorsi, Eleanor, Megara, Ming Yi, and Vira, who was the one who wanted to know the powers in the first place.
-- also, Luca, Gojou and Primrose said they didn't receive a power.
Did Luca participate in the events of last week? [ he honestly doesn't remember. the powers being kept quiet is interesting, though, and he hums. ] I'll tell you, I didn't lie about mine. It doesn't exactly leave any lasting effects on anyone, and I don't have any plan of really using it, except if it's funny.
But that leaves quite the group of tricksters, doesn't it? I wonder.
I don't think so either. But it does make me wonder what other powers are out there now. Especially when they aren't as easy to track as the sin based powers were.
[ that gets him to snicker, too. yea. yuri gets it. purple bastard solidarity. ]
That is so very true. I imagine it won't be so obvious as last week. [ considering luca and his cacti. ] I've taken what just about anyone says with a grain of salt, up until this point. There are very few people here who I believe would just honestly admit to their power, particularly if it was something useful.
Not to mention, if what was said at trial was true, the Avatars have been rather generous with gift giving with some lucky participants.
I don't see any reason to disbelieve the people who spoke up first. Mineo... doesn't see like the sort who'd like in the middle of a trial, given how determined he is every week to do things right.
... And I'd believe Shi Qingxuan, but I haven't asked her, as I can't really offer her anything in return.
I highly doubt Shi Qingxuan would lie - especially when Ming Yi was in hot water for a bit, there. It doesn't seem likely.
That does put everyone else under scrutiny, though. [ and, to the avatar thing, he hums. ] Yes. They expire, just like any other, but those will be much trickier to find.

Public disturbance, usually. And I'm not sure, but my cryptic little informant was insistent regardless.

Ah, yes. As usual, a blessing upon our little room. [ he will nudge gu yun's previously handless arm with his foot. ] How's the limb doing?

Like it never even happened. Much to Harrow’s dismay, I’m no longer exposed to the bone, and I can pick things up again.

That is usually how it goes, I think! [ wehehe ]

[ he will hold the gremlin fingies. will they warm up if he makes an effort to help them? ]
my purples 8(
gu yun hums, to that. ] Mm. She reminds me of Chang Geng, in a lot of ways. He's the same.
.... GASP our purples pc. maybe tomorrow as alli is feeling no bueno :(
Ah, your detail oriented ward. [ ... ] I can see it.
Oh.
That reminds me. I told you about my ability on Friday -- can you promise me you'll keep it quiet?
yes aaaaa
ah. to that, though, he glances up, lolling his head. ] I wasn't planning on telling anyone, no. Planning on using it to off someone?
[ HE'S JOKING what a horrible joke. (unless,) ]

[ wow. he pats the hand patting his hand. patception. ] It'd be one that could confuse things though, so if people are aware it helps.

[ hmmm. ] You told me before the trial, and it matched with something someone else said. Mineo cleared you.
[ haha, well. ] I suppose I'm one of them. Or half of one. I'll wear my badge with pride.

[
a. are you?
anyway. he waves a hand. ] I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I imagine others who had your power felt exactly the same.
