Chen's Day Out - Wriggle Justice Edition

[Chaore]

> (To Aya:) "I just want to warn you that the Maiden's still a kid. Don't ask her too many questions, alright? It might put too much pressure on her."

"Of course, Of course!"

>"And be sure you get her to explicitly say yes to everything you intend to do, while Genjii is there. She's only seven, and while she seems kinda mature for it, that's still seven. And if you make her cry, Suika will probably bury you in the sand."
>"As for the raven, what are your plans? I mean, with traps and stuff?"

Aya blinks. "The turtle? Thats a good idea! I should do a double interview. Don't think I got him before...

As for the Raven. Its simple- How do you think SHE gets through?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Um, she knows where all the traps are and gets around them?"

[Chaore]

>"Um, she knows where all the traps are and gets around them?"

"From that, we can assume two things. One, there is a safe path. Two, that it is capable of being memorized. So, I need to find the safe path."

[Hello Purvis]

>"How're you going to do that?"

[OkashiiKisei]

> "I don't think your body is sturdy enough to survive a 'trial-and-error' run through that place, nor can you regenerate. And good luck getting the info out of Raphael the Raven. She hardly talks apparently."
> "And what's to say a turtle youkai doesn't swoop in and turns the Raven giant?"

[Chaore]

>"How're you going to do that?"

> "I don't think your body is sturdy enough to survive a 'trial-and-error' run through that place, nor can you regenerate. And good luck getting the info out of Raphael the Raven. She hardly talks apparently."
> "And what's to say a turtle youkai doesn't swoop in and turns the Raven giant?"

"Perceptive reasoning! And maybe a few heavy objects to throw to test my path."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Maybe you better get a good long stick, too."
>Pondering following, to help keep her safe. And also curiosity satiation...

[Kasu]

> Are ravens attracted to shiny things as well?  Or is that just crows?

[Chaore]

>"Maybe you better get a good long stick, too."
>Pondering following, to help keep her safe. And also curiosity satiation...

"Ooo! Good Idea..."

You ponder the idea. ...Say, isn't there something odd about this situation?

> Are ravens attracted to shiny things as well?  Or is that just crows?

You know they're both black birds! ...that's about it, really.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Still, you ought to leave that poor woman alone, if she's just not wanting to be disturbed."
>Try not to admit a interested in where she got a magic killer from.
>Sip milk.

[Chaore]

>"Still, you ought to leave that poor woman alone, if she's just not wanting to be disturbed."
>Try not to admit a interested in where she got a magic killer from.
>Sip milk.

"Pah! I've got interviews alone, the will of the shy is not enough to stop me!

You find it hard to not- especially so concentrated and in such a large radius. Complete Anti-Magic is difficult alone...

You sip your milk.

[Hello Purvis]

>Frown. "I guess I'll come with you, then. I'm sorta curious what it's like there. And you'll probably need someone to spring you from the traps anyways."

[Chaore]

>Frown. "I guess I'll come with you, then. I'm sorta curious what it's like there. And you'll probably need someone to spring you from the traps anyways."

Aya pumps her fist. "Very well! Then we shall discover the truth!".

[Hello Purvis]

Aya pumps her fist. "Very well! Then we shall discover the truth!".

>"And we're going to be really nice and respect her privacy or...or...I'll have a dragon sit on you!"
>Yeah.

[Chaore]

>"And we're going to be really nice and respect her privacy or...or...I'll have a dragon sit on you!"
>Yeah.

Aya blinks. "Right, right... Yeesh, You've gotten creative with your threats. Lemme finish my meal and get this thing running. Bloody guards can't take care of a single camera well..."

[Hello Purvis]

>Bitch we'll do it.
>"What's wrong with your camera?"

[Chaore]

>Bitch we'll do it.
>"What's wrong with your camera?"

"Nottt entirely sure. The flash is still working fine, as you saw, but the pictures aren't going through... Normally there is this long 'whirrrr' kind of sound as it processes the picture..."

[OkashiiKisei]

> "...Are you sure the film isn't just full? You can only take so many photo's with one film. You have to replace the film every so often. Or did it run on magic? Can't the kappa's figure it out?"

[Chaore]

> "...Are you sure the film isn't just full? You can only take so many photo's with one film. You have to replace the film every so often. Or did it run on magic? Can't the kappa's figure it out?"

You use your limited knowledge to come up with a solution, Aya face palms. "Ayayayaya! I forgot, they took the film! Man... How am I going to get more..."

[Kasu]

> Facepalm.
> "Are you on leave from the army or something?"

[Chaore]

> Facepalm.
> "Are you on leave from the army or something?"

Aya scratches the back of her head. "Kkkkinnndda..."

Mystia chimes in. "No. She ran away after that trial, took her camera with her."

[OkashiiKisei]

> "Maybe you should head over to Kourindou. They've got to have a film lying around there."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh."
>"Well, I don't blame you. It's kinda oppressive in there."
>"You shouldn't need any pictures, right? Everyone who comes around her sees her. Maybe you could make a sketch if she's alright with it?"

[Kasu]

> "Either way, if you take pictures and what not, its not exactly like you can do anything with them if the Tengu are gonna hunt you down for desertion."

[Chaore]

> "Maybe you should head over to Kourindou. They've got to have a film lying around there."

"It is possible. Should make it my next stop."

>"Oh."
>"Well, I don't blame you. It's kinda oppressive in there."
>"You shouldn't need any pictures, right? Everyone who comes around her sees her. Maybe you could make a sketch if she's alright with it?"

Aya nods. "Yeah. Couldn't even let me continue the Bunbunmaru... And of course not! What about her house? Or if she removes her hood? And I can't really draw well so..."

> "Either way, if you take pictures and what not, its not exactly like you can do anything with them if the Tengu are gonna hunt you down for desertion."

"...i'll deal with that after the paper gets out."

[OkashiiKisei]

> "You're really one of those 'act now, think later' persons, aren't you?"
> "You could just right down her most prominent features and ask someone else to draw her for you. I heard Akyu was good at drawing."
> "Fine, I'll watch your back, but you're going to handle the Tengu yourself, alright?"

[Chaore]

> "You're really one of those 'act now, think later' persons, aren't you?"
> "You could just right down her most prominent features and ask someone else to draw her for you. I heard Akyu was good at drawing."
> "Fine, I'll watch your back, but you're going to handle the Tengu yourself, alright?"

"'Course! You're not the one they want back, after all. And I suppose that is possible, but I'd rather not throw her in the situation of listening to a crazy art perfectionist. The last time I had someone draw for the Bunbunmaru, it took a few months to get the article out."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Okay, fine, yeesh. We'll see if Kourindou has some film."

[Chaore]

>"Okay, fine, yeesh. We'll see if Kourindou has some film."

"Excellent. Trust me, the finished product will be worth the wait!"

[OkashiiKisei]

> Head with Aya to Kourindou. We can check up on new stock ourselves too.
