What about it?

[aubins]

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.

[liuli]

[ oh ho ho. interesting. ]

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.

[aubins]

I think he did? I'm not sure what happened for them to not get a power though.

[ 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.

[liuli]

Ha! What can I say. I'm a man who abides by the rules.

[

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.

[aubins]

[ he just


















laughs. ] When they suit.

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.

[liuli]

[ 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.

[aubins]

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.

[ hm. ]

Power wise, you mean?

[liuli]

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.

[aubins]

Right. There's no... connecting factor there. Like all the Wraths having a Wrath based ability. This is all just random and unknown.

And there's at least one more Oliver Twist out there, I suspect.

[liuli]

Mm. At least that's a defensive ability - its the others that are more concerning. There was at least one for blindness, and one to make someone with mad with insatiability - things that could be easily used against someone.

[aubins]

And the arrows, which seem.... interesting. Didn't someone say the power was named after a specific kind of goddess?

[liuli]

"Aphrodite", right? I have no idea who that is.

[aubins]

... I wonder if the library would have something. It could give us a clue, but it's still not a descriptor of what the ability does exactly.

[liuli]

[ two fools learn about love arrows. ]

Well, probably. [ ... ] I'm not that worried about it, at the moment. [ gu yun waves his hand lazily ] If it had your book, I'm sure it'll have something on that, too. Maybe they're related.

[ lolol]

[aubins]

[ maybe molly can accidentally stab gu yun with one so they can stop beating around the bu-- i mean ]

My book?

[ what the fuck is an oliver twist, gu yun ]

[liuli]

Your pornography?

[ i have no idea what you're talking about ]

[aubins]

[ sure you don't ]

Oh this? [ when you forget there's a book in this thread. ]

Shows how stand out it is if I'm already forgetting about it. Here-- [ he hands it over ]-- you'll see what I mean.

[liuli]

[ inventory: +1 horrid porn book ]

Thanks. I think. [ he will. peruse that later ig ] I suppose reading bad literature counts as indulging.

[aubins]

Under what category though? Lust? It's not like you're going to get aroused by it.

...

Despair?

[liuli]

[ lol ]

Envy, for the jealousy of the you who lived without reading it, just ten minutes before?

[aubins]

Wrath, for how I'll probably feel when I finish it...? If I finish it, which could count as Sloth.

[liuli]

Pride for recognizing that you're better than any of the characters inside.

[aubins]

That's almost all of them. Lust is a no, they don't deserve the association and it's not sexy. Greed... well. I'm not sure I could be greedy about these books.

Literally take them from me, once I'm done with them I don't want to see them again.

[liuli]

[ oh god he doesn't want them

a beat. ]

... I bet, if we asked Wrath, they would be happy to dispose of them. [ with fire, ]
