//Yukari was willing to threaten Marisa and give an unfaithful bargain when she came to close our out of control tear and find us. Not to mention her expressing how dangerous it was... If we open another larger and probably more unstable one in here, it could possibly attract her attention. Hopefully.

Serela · « **Reply #708 on:** July 30, 2016, 01:59:53 AM »

That's a last resort. Sariel twitched. Let's try a less super dangerous thing first. We aren't in gensokyo, so we can't guarantee Yukari will notice before it's Really Bad News. Maybe we'd just end up destroying this space, but who knows what repercussions there could be if Yukari didn't come fast enough?

>Move through the gap. Immediately begin shaking Sariel. "Wake up Sariel, emergency!"

>"She's possessed!" Say it in a sort of panic. This should get their attention in the proper manner. We simply don't have time to explain.

I don't have any ideas other than panic tears. We don't have any real fighting ability. We're in a featureless void so we can't dump something on her. SumiMagan, on the other hand, can probably beat us to a pulp effortlessly. Yukari is god knows where. If the situation doesn't immediately improve we might need to just start ripping holes. I HIGHLY doubt we can try to boundary Yuugen out of Sumireko, not whilst she's fully able to resist... violently.

Serela · « **Reply #712 on:** July 30, 2016, 02:30:48 AM »

There's not really gravity here... we might be able to surprise-shove her into a gap, maybe, but SumiMagan can just make new rifts here. We'd need some sort of real plan.

Ahahahhaaaaa actually you know what we could try to gap her into the garden of the sun and let yuuka murder her

except we don't want to accidentally get sumireko killed. yuuka wouldn't literally murder people who weren't fairies, right? >.> ...right? <.<

We could gap to the SDM and then try to dump a boatload of books ontop of her?

EDIT:Actually, wait. We just need SumiMagan to not kill the other archangels. If we gap everyone other than her out... than we can buy some time. We can go to the Hakurei Shrine and alert Ran. This is a -good- plan. I won't make it in this post since it may be missed because edit shenanigans, though.

Oh our previous encounter and almost loss of Renko begs to differ...
That dagger we threw should still be in here, maybe...

Serela · « **Reply #714 on:** July 30, 2016, 02:47:12 AM »

Maybe... that's not a bad idea. Stealth-stabbing Sumireko through a gap could work without literally killing her. But -locating- it is questionable... we have precious little time to waste. It may have even been destroyed.

>Open a gap to the Hakurei Shrine near us/uriel/sariel. Keep the other open so Renko can still get through.
>Throw a haphazard spread of pellet danmaku towards SumiMagan. It just has to be spread enough to make her move so that she's distracted, the aim and specifics don't matter. "Get in or she'll kill you!"
