(ooc notes: I will state any possible content warnings in the subject line of the mod response when it comes up. If anything makes you uncomfortable, please tell me so I can back off and refocus the thread.

There will be no tag order, and a mod response will come after at least 6 player responses OR the next day, whichever is earlier. Please note this means that if you're absent for a day or more, the thread will move on, but I will pace things so that people aren't missing large plot beats.

For this mission, characters will icly split into two groups, and there may be an opportunity to remix groups later in the mission.)

[A tether? Hmm.]

... I wonder if he's trapped here the same as we are. [and it reminds Clamor of something Nene brought up once, about how empty this place is... there are barely any spirits around, so why is the gardener here?

but anyway, spirit magic is his specialty, so he's damn well gonna try to take the pacifist route first... please try to reel your murder instincts the fuck in, he's lookin at you hanako & lucifer.]

[He will not reel in his murder instincts dammit, he wants to be the alpha demon and that guy is encroaching on his territory or something.]

A tether would be an interesting theory, yes. Have we any means of testing it or locating said anchors, however?

[sisters]

If he's bound to it, or it's giving him strength, he would probably be pretty attached to it. The first thing that comes to mind for me is the wisteria tree.

( he's a gardener, right? keeping the grounds? what would he be more attached to in this school, literally and figuratively, than that? )

Yashiro said burning down the tree wouldn't be a good idea... I kinda promised her we wouldn't try it if there were other options.

[ Hanako was an advocate, but, you know. This is also an option, I'm just saying. ]

[carpevinum]

[Well if Nene doesn't want the tree to be harmed they're not fucking hurting the tree, Nene is Lucifer's daughter, he found her in the hallway??? His now.]

Let's exhaust all other options first, in that case.

[Can you say "biased"?]
