[15:57] *** Furu II [swordsandsorcery@duelacademia.ed.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[15:57] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Furu II
[15:57] * Furu II curls up with Oswald and a book!
[15:57] <zairafirefly> hey furu-ni
[15:58] <@Wolfwood> yo
[16:00] * Furu II waves a little.
[16:00] <Furu II> Hey guys.
[16:00] * Oswald yawns
[16:00] * Wolfwood looks at Oswald.
[16:00] *** Oswald is no one

[16:01] <@Wolfwood> You have a no one
[16:01] * Oswald is too lazy to register
[16:01] * Oswald is an overweight platypus
[16:02] <@Wolfwood> An overweight creature that shoudl'nt exist.
[16:02] <@Wolfwood> Groovy keen.
[16:02] <zairafirefly> why shouldn't he exist?
[16:02] <Furu II> Hey!!
[16:04] <Furu II> :<
[16:04] * Furu II hugs Oswald defensively
[16:05] * zairafirefly offers oswald a cracker
[16:05] <@Wolfwood> It's furry like a mammal, yet it lays eggs for one.
[16:05] <zairafirefly> so?
[16:06] <@Wolfwood> it lacks the mammalian sex-determining gene SRY, meaning that the process of sex determination in the Platypus remains unknown.
[16:07] <zairafirefly> that still isn't a reason for it not to exist
[16:07] <Furu II> >:(
[16:07] <Reiko> (( OKAY SO ))
[16:07] <Reiko> (( I'm all moved in to my new place ))
[16:07] <@Wolfwood> I did'nt say it was'nt cute.
[16:07] <Reiko> (( Big problem is, I don't have internet ))
[16:07] <@Wolfwood> It's just god's mulligan.
[16:07] <Reiko> (( I'm at the library right now ))
[16:07] <@Wolfwood> (( This is a problem. ))
[16:08] <zairafirefly> (( i got your vote, btw ))
[16:08] <@Wolfwood> (( groovy ))
[16:08] <Reiko> (( Great, thanks Zaira :D ))
[16:08] <zairafirefly> The platypus has a different diet for winter and summer. Their diet includes shrimps, larvae, horsehair worms, fish eggs and plants. It also swallows mud, that contains tiny water creatures called plankton.
[16:08] <Reiko> (( My building was supposed to get wi-fi from the city of MAdison, but nothing's come of this, and that was back in... like, early september or so ))
[16:09] <zairafirefly> (( that sucks ))
[16:09] <Furu II> Be nice!
[16:09] <@Wolfwood> (( you should buy a router. They're on the cheapish these days ))
[16:09] <Reiko> (( So, as of right now, I'm limited to library, a laundromat in my old home town, and friends. ))
[16:09] <Reiko> (( I have one, I just don't have internet at all ))
[16:10] <Reiko> (( And getting internet would be way too much for me. ))
[16:10] <Reiko> (( So, as of right now ))
[16:11] <@Wolfwood> (( D : ))
[16:11] <Reiko> (( I'm screwed. ))
[16:11] <zairafirefly> (( maybe you'll be spending a lot more time at the libarary doing 'research'? ))
[16:11] <Reiko> (( My mom's gonna talk to the owner of the building to see what's up (pretty much, Zaira) and hopeully I' ))

[16:16] * Furu II smiles brightly and goes all starry eyed
[16:16] <Reiko> Hello.
[16:18] <Furu II> How are yoooooou
[16:18] * Furu II rolls his eyes
[16:18] * Oswald did that
[16:18] <Oswald> (( damn typos D: ))
[16:19] * Furu II is oblivious to his platypus
[16:21] <Reiko> I'm alright
[16:21] <Furu II> That's great!
[16:22] <Reiko> A little sore from my trip on DenLiner
[16:23] <Reiko> Naomi's coffee was a little bitter today...
[16:23] <Furu II> A lot of sitting?
[16:24] <Reiko> Yeah.
[16:24] <Reiko> The Imajin were surprisingly calm, today
[16:25] <Furu II> I'm glad you had a safe trip. ^_^
[16:25] <Reiko> Uh, thanks...
[16:26] <Reiko> Where's your older counterpart?
[16:26] <Furu II> Is there anything I can get you?
[16:26] <Furu II> Oh, him?
[16:26] <Furu II> No idea!
[16:26] * Furu II shrugs
[16:27] * Reiko kinda pats Furu's head
[16:27] * Furu II blushes a little.

[16:28] <Furu II> Normally you don't like it when I fawn over you so much.
[16:30] <Furu II> And then you wield sharp things.
[16:33] <Reiko> Sorry
[16:33] <Reiko> I zoned out a little
[16:34] <Furu II> You know what you need?
[16:35] <Reiko> ?
[16:36] * Furu II stands up DRAMATICALLY!
[16:36] <Furu II> Tea!
[16:36] * Furu II runs off to make tea!
[16:37] * Reiko blinks
[16:41] * Furu II returns with steaming hot tea, huffing and puffing.
[16:42] <Furu II> Don't...ask how it got done so quickly. >_>;
[16:42] <Reiko> Right.
[16:42] * Reiko takes some, sipping it.
[16:42] <Reiko> Thank you.
[16:44] <Furu II> You're welcome, Reiko-san! ♡
[16:44] * Furu II sits and watches Reiko enjoy it.
[16:46] <Reiko> ... you're staring
[16:47] <Yaijinden> So am I.
[16:48] <Furu II> S-sorry.
[16:48] <Furu II> Hello Yai!
[16:49] <Yaijinden> So am I.
[16:49] * Yaijinden waves
[16:49] <Reiko> Hello, Yai-san.
[16:49] <Yaijinden> What's new with you two?
[16:50] <Furu II> Same as always. School school school. You'd think learning to be the best at a card game would be easier.
[16:51] <Reiko> Same as always. Fighting, fighting, fighting. You'd think that evil forces would have learned by now.
[16:51] <Yaijinden> ...
[16:51] <Yaijinden> Hee.
[16:51] <Yaijinden> naturally.
[16:51] <Reiko> And yourself, Yai-san?
[16:53] <Yaijinden> Not-so-secretly gloating. Listening to the Maggott Show.
[16:54] <Yaijinden> Flailing about!
[16:54] <Furu II> Reiko-chan, how was the tea?
[16:55] <Reiko> ... it's fine.
[16:55] * Oswald pads away from his lovestruck owner and jumps into Yai's lap
[16:55] <Yaijinden> Eee!
[16:55] <Reiko> How did you even get to this timeline, Furu?
[16:55] * Yaijinden pets
[16:56] <Furu II> Big Furu-san took me here!
[16:56] * Oswald flaps his tail
[16:57] <Reiko> Which one? The Ikari native to this timeline or one of the-- *counts with her fingers*... three? Yeah, one of the three future ones?
[16:57] <Furu II> The one with the coat that has the big spiral on it and gets overly emotional.
[16:58] <Reiko> So, Future Furu 2.0?
[17:00] * Furu II nods!
[17:01] <Reiko> I wonder if he brought you here for the protection...
[17:02] <Reiko> He did the same with Cardea, after all.
[17:02] <Reiko> Are you from his Timeline?
[17:05] <Yaijinden> ♫
[17:05] <Furu II> Uhh...nope!
[17:05] <Furu II> Not at all.
[17:05] <Furu II> I'm from another one. I'm pretty sure...
[17:05] * Furu II 's memory is kind of fuzzy
[17:06] <Reiko> Can you describe it?
[17:06] <Reiko> Maybe I can find it -- and the reason Furu brought you here...
[17:07] <Furu II> I...I don't...really remember much...
[17:08] <Reiko> Try and think back, Furu...
[17:09] <Furu II> I don't want to!
[17:09] <Reiko> Why not?
[17:09] <Furu II> Because...
[17:09] <Furu II> everything was destroyed...
[17:09] <Reiko> !
[17:09] <Reiko> How so?
[17:10] <Reiko> A bomb? Galactus?
[17:12] <Furu II> No!
[17:12] <Furu II> It just..happened out of nowhere...
[17:12] <Reiko> ...
[17:13] * Reiko pulls out a small card
[17:13] <Reiko> I
[17:13] <Reiko> I'm going to look into your memory. See things for myself.
[17:13] <Reiko> Is that alright?
[17:13] <Furu II> ...
[17:13] * Furu II nods.
[17:14] * Reiko nods, holding the spell card up to his forehead, hers joining as she closes her eyes.
[17:14] <Reiko> ...
[17:14] * Reiko winces as flashes of Furu's memories go flying past, and all the destruction... chaos...
[17:15] <Reiko> ... oh my God...
[17:15] <Reiko> Furu... I... I thought your planet was destroyed...
[17:15] <Reiko> Not... not this...
[17:16] <Yaijinden> Mmm?
[17:17] * Reiko moves away
[17:17] <Reiko> I've seen this kind of destruction before.
[17:17] <Reiko> His entire timeline was destroyed.
[17:17] * Furu II looks down at the floor silently
[17:19] <Reiko> He.. should have been destroyed, with it.
[17:19] <Reiko> How he survives...
[17:20] *** Reiko [blackwarp@worldthatneverwas.nul] has quit IRC (I have to find Ikari)
[17:20] <Yaijinden> The plot thickens.
[17:20] <Yaijinden> On the bright side, though-- you're alive.
[17:20] <Yaijinden> Never let go of that.
[17:21] * Furu II nods!
[17:21] <Furu II> That's what he told me too...
[17:22] <Yaijinden> Your rescuer?
[17:23] <Furu II> Yeah.
[17:23] <Furu II> "Keep going forward as long as you're alive" or something...
[17:25] * Furu II shrugs
[17:26] <Yaijinden> Thus far.
[17:27] <Yaijinden> Sobering moments tend to invite silences, neh?
[17:27] <Furu II> Yeah...I've...gotta go.

[17:53] <@Mango-chan> [20:08] <Sailor Io> Or how about I kick your ass to Mt. Glacier.
[17:53] <Eiry> Yes, mostly. Nothing unusual.
[17:53] <@Mango-chan> Indigo-san, what is Mt. Glacier?
[17:54] * @Indigo gets a chart
[17:54] * @Indigo shows that this chart is Jedite.

[17:57] <Eiry> Hello, CB, Ari.
[17:57] <Yaijinden> Did you lose a fight with a garden hose?
[17:57] <Crimson Butterfly> Hi Eiry!
[17:57] <Ari Leroux> You could say that.
[17:57] <Ari Leroux> Only it wasn't a garden hose
[17:58] <Ari Leroux> I lost a fight with the weather ><
[17:58] <Crimson Butterfly> Oh? You wanna go back out then? :D
[17:58] <Ari Leroux> Shut up Butterfly
[17:59] <Eiry> What exactly happened, Ari?
[18:00] <Ari Leroux> I was getting a soda out of a vending machine while working and it suddenly downpoured. >< AND TATSUMI LEFT WITH MY UMBRELLA ><
[18:00] <Ari Leroux> Or at least I think he did
[18:00] <Ari Leroux> ....
[18:00] <Ari Leroux> Because he wasn't around ><
[18:00] <Eiry> Oh, that just sucks.
[18:01] <Ari Leroux> Indeed
[18:02] <Yaijinden> Pity.
[18:03] <Ari Leroux> And it wasn't a warm downpouring rain
[18:03] <Ari Leroux> it was COLD
[18:04] <Yaijinden> Take your wet clothes off, build a fire, stay warm.
[18:05] <Eiry> Yeah, you're not going to catch a cold or anything, are you?
[18:07] <@Mango-chan> Ne
[18:07] <@Mango-chan> I found the holy grail!
[18:07] <@Mango-chan> The origional eternal conflict!
[18:07] <@Mango-chan> :O
[18:08] <Eiry> ....you did?
[18:08] * @Mango-chan is away: what other obscure things will I find when looking through the chat logs?
[18:08] * @Mango-chan notes in her away state that the Holy grail is in Moat
[18:08] <Yaijinden> MOAT
[18:11] <Yaijinden> ..
[18:11] <Eiry> I wonder if moat and boat are historically linguistically linked.
[18:11] * Yaijinden has nothing
[18:12] <Eiry> Well, it's a thought, I guess.
[18:13] * Ari Leroux is back
[18:13] <Eiry> wb.
[18:13] <Ari Leroux> Eveen if I catch a cold it's not gonna be the death of me
[18:13] <Ari Leroux> I'm already deaad
[18:13] <Ari Leroux> *dead
[18:14] <Eiry> Oh, that's right.
[18:14] <Eiry> Sometimes it's hard to keep track of who's dead and who's not around here.
[18:14] <Yaijinden> Doesn't matter. You're uncomfortable. Remedy it.
[18:14] <Ari Leroux> ....
[18:16] <Yaijinden> ^_^
[18:16] <Eiry> Anyway. Otherwise how was your day, Ari?
[18:17] <Ari Leroux> Better than most days
[18:18] <Ari Leroux> Tatsumi even gave me some time to visit with Kannuki today! :D
[18:19] <Eiry> That's nice of him. Tatsumi's you're new partner, right?
[18:27] * Ari Leroux nods
[18:27] <Ari Leroux> He's Chief Konoe's secretary, but as we can't get me a new partner for a while...
[18:27] <Ari Leroux> Tatsumi took Indigo's place
[18:28] <Eiry> I imagine it's a different working environment.
[18:28] * Ari Leroux nods
[18:28] <Ari Leroux> Indigo was laid back
[18:28] <Ari Leroux> Tatsumi's a slave driver
[18:28] <Eiry> So very different, then.
[18:30] * Ari Leroux nods
[18:31] <Eiry> I know what that's like.
[18:33] <Eiry> Yumiko's really nice to work with, though.

[18:52] <Suu> ...You don't know, do you?
[18:52] <Eiry> How are you feeling today, Suu?
[18:53] <Eiry> Judai has been recruited by Hachiman, Ari.
[18:53] <Suu> It's not the worst that's happened to him...
[18:53] <Suu> He's with friends...in a sense.
[18:54] <Suu> I'm...not worried. Not AS worried, I should say.
[18:54] <Eiry> At least he's not getting tortured this time.
[18:55] * Suu sighs.
[18:56] <Ari Leroux> .................
[18:56] <Ari Leroux> DAMMIT
[18:56] <Ari Leroux> And you know what?!
[18:57] <Ari Leroux> Solarchos caused my partner to join up with rei-bot and then QUIT HER JOB!
[18:57] <Eiry> What?
[18:57] <Ari Leroux> ><
[18:57] <Eiry> Ah, yes.
[18:57] <Ari Leroux> After what solarchos said
[18:57] <Ari Leroux> You know the details
[18:59] <Yaijinden> You can try to keep the details from me--
[18:59] <Yaijinden> But it's too late. I've seen everything. I've seen it all.
[18:59] <Eiry> But he's still the one trying to make something work for us.
[19:00] <Ari Leroux> True
[19:00] <Ari Leroux> I'm still pissed
[19:01] <Yaijinden> In that case, I'm going to have to say something.
[19:03] <Yaijinden> Anyone who interprets Solarchos's phrasings and sentiments as anything other than an archetypical human, obeying its formal cultural, linguistic, and psychological programming, needs to be shot.
[19:03] <Ari Leroux> Heh
[19:03] <Yaijinden> I say this because I love humanity. Without humanity, I would not have come to be who I am.
[19:04] <Ari Leroux> Humanity
[19:04] <Ari Leroux> Well, I was human...at one time
[19:04] <Ari Leroux> >>
[19:04] * Ari Leroux sighs
[19:04] <Yaijinden> But just the same-- there is a twinge of contempt in even the deepest, most profound love.
[19:04] * Ari Leroux shivers
[19:05] <Yaijinden> Humanity is not ready to choose for itself.
[19:05] <Suu> ...
[19:06] <Yaijinden> Every so often, it produces an individual who shies free of the understandings that the greater whole shackles and binds the many to itself.
[19:06] <Yaijinden> These shackles are not bad things. They allow us to understand one another, to communicate-- to survive.
[19:07] <Yaijinden> Yes: every so often, an individual emerges for whom the shackles are ill-fitting. Sometimes these souls are strangled in the crib, mutilated by others to fit; other times, they mutilate themselves deliberately, desperate to be able to share human connections.
[19:07] * Ari Leroux pulls off her coat, only to reveal a soaking wet blouse and tie
[19:08] * Ari Leroux sighs
[19:08] <Ari Leroux> Like I said, I'm soaked
[19:08] <Ari Leroux> ><
[19:08] <Ari Leroux> ><
[19:08] <Yaijinden> For the individual, it is still an uncommon case to not only slip free, but understand what it _means_ to be free.
[19:09] <Eiry> I know what freedom means to me, but not everyone has the same idea of freedom, I think.
[19:09] <Yaijinden> This sort of freedom is... suffocating, just as quickly as it is liberating. With freedom-- well, with freedom and the right to choose comes the responsibilities of choice.
[19:10] <Yaijinden> It is known to me that there are three truths.
[19:11] <Yaijinden> The first: all that is alive is in obedience.
[19:11] <Yaijinden> The second: he who cannot obey himself will be commanded from without.
[19:12] <Yaijinden> The third: that it is more taxing on the heart to command than to obey.
[19:12] <Eiry> Expand on the first one, please.
[19:12] <Suu> If you need me I'll be sitting up in a tree.
[19:13] <Eiry> Let me know if you need anything, Suu.
[19:14] * Suu goes outside and perches in a tree, looking up at the moon.
[19:14] <Yaijinden> Simply enough-- if you are alive, then you follow certain dictates and guidelines. These are as simple as eating when you are hungry and sleeping when you are tired, and as complicated as "a person is guilty of a transgression if found so by a jury of his peers" and "if I say this my argumentative spouse will be mollified."
[19:15] <Eiry> Okay.
[19:15] <Yaijinden> A lot of the time, these rules are just imparted to you.
[19:16] <Yaijinden> Sometimes, you have the freedom to choose your own dictates.
[19:16] * Eiry nods.
[19:16] <Yaijinden> This leads into the second: if you cannot create your own standards and guidelines of your behavior, then you will forever be subject to the internal logic that is taught and imparted to you by others.
[19:17] * Hooded_Figure comes in, drinking her tea.
[19:17] <Yaijinden> It's the rule of counterculture: I'm different, just like everyone else. If there is a difference between two things that makes no difference, is it really a difference at all?
[19:18] * Hooded_Figure sits in her corner, drinking her tea
[19:18] <Eiry> You mean differences that don't matter?
[19:18] <Yaijinden> Something like.
[19:19] * Yaijinden acknowledges Ying with a nod and a wry smile
[19:19] * Hooded_Figure gives a wave to Yaijinden as she watches the room
[19:19] * Eiry waves to Ying
[19:20] * Hooded_Figure waves back to Eiry as she drinks her tea
[19:20] <Yaijinden> But still...
[19:20] <Yaijinden> There is something more.
[19:21] <Yaijinden> I dislike picking on Solar, but he made an important and all-too-common argument that is not really valid.
[19:22] <Yaijinden> The choice he was offered by rei-bot-- to withdraw from the coming fight, that he and his family will be safe and unharmed-- he responds by saying that it isn't really a choice. But he is wrong.
[19:23] <Eiry> He believes his family would be disappointed in him.

[19:23] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Meruhesae
[19:24] <Meruhesae> I've known Inu for a long time
[19:24] * Yaijinden raises an eyebrow, grinning
[19:24] <Yaijinden> Let's hear it.
[19:24] <Meruhesae> Iff Solar had chosen not to fight, she would have stood by his decision. She wouldn't have been disappointed.
[19:25] <Meruhesae> She herself had a decision shortly before her retirement from Unmei's military
[19:25] <Meruhesae> To stay and fight
[19:26] <Meruhesae> Or to withdraw to the safety of her estate
[19:26] <Meruhesae> She chose not to fight.
[19:26] <Meruhesae> She withdrew.
[19:27] <Yaijinden> Options are presented to all of us, all of the time. Simply because one choice seems to have more inherent value in it than the other does not mean that there is still not a choice to be had.
[19:27] * Meruhesae nods in agreemment
[19:27] <Yaijinden> I argue: human beings are not ready for freedom. They are terrified of it. They _already_ make their choices on a daily basis.
[19:28] <Yaijinden> The "choice" rei-bot argues for is one we already have.
[19:28] <@rei-bot> Ahh, but you must be truly strong to take advantage of it in this era.
[19:29] * Hooded_Figure drinks her tea, watching the room
[19:29] <@rei-bot> the weight of societyhangs heavy on the individual.
[19:29] <@rei-bot> You can choose if you're brave enough.
[19:29] * Suu sees rei-bot...
[19:29] <@rei-bot> Look at Indigo and Reaiko.
[19:29] <@rei-bot> ^Reiko
[19:29] <Yaijinden> We can. We do.
[19:30] * Suu glares
[19:30] <@rei-bot> simply by exercising their right to choose, they have become marked as pariahs.
[19:30] * Ari Leroux smiles politely and bows to rei-bot "Hello.""
[19:30] <@rei-bot> Solarchos does nto choose because he fears the castigation of others, unwarranted as that fear may be.
[19:30] * @rei-bot bows back "hello."
[19:31] * @rei-bot sees Suu's glare.
[19:31] <Ari Leroux> (( Ari may not like rei-bot but she hardly ever forgets her manners ))
[19:31] <Yaijinden> I say to you: and?
[19:31] <Ari Leroux> Suu, I understand you dislike rei-bot
[19:31] <@rei-bot> And.. nothing.
[19:31] <Ari Leroux> So do I
[19:31] <Eiry> No, Solar made is choice, and he chose to fight.
[19:31] <@rei-bot> It is an observation.
[19:31] <Ari Leroux> But at least remember your manners
[19:31] <@rei-bot> His choice wasn't really a choice.
[19:31] <Yaijinden> Precisely.
[19:32] <Yaijinden> Well that no.
[19:32] <@rei-bot> He himse;f narrowed his options to a singular course.
[19:32] * Hooded_Figure sits in the corner, drinking her tea.
[19:32] <@rei-bot> He never really "chose" so much as continued long his predtermined line.
[19:32] <Yaijinden> Endemic to the human condition.
[19:33] <@rei-bot> to choose means to truly weigh.
[19:33] <Yaijinden> What would you offer that is so different?
[19:33] <@rei-bot> I would remove the yoke that prevents the weaker from choosing.
[19:33] <Yaijinden> What do you _want_.
[19:33] <@rei-bot> I personally?
[19:33] <Ari Leroux> And how are you on this dreary day, rei-bot?
[19:33] <@rei-bot> I personally just want to live.
[19:33] <Yaijinden> However you want to answer the query.
[19:33] <@rei-bot> But as I look out over humanity...
[19:33] <@rei-bot> I weep.
[19:34] <@rei-bot> For the noble creatures so contrstrined to medicrity.
[19:34] <@rei-bot> ^constrained
[19:34] <Suu> ...mediocre...
[19:34] <@rei-bot> They have walled themselves away from their own potential.
[19:34] <@rei-bot> Out of fear.
[19:35] <@rei-bot> Evolved as they have become, in some ways their is still the mentality of the scared huntsman living in caves, seeking fire-light to push back the night.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> Our species has only emerged from fear in the past several thousand years. It will be several more before we can even begin to walk in the darkness as ourselves.
[19:36] <@rei-bot> I wish... to bring that to humanity sooner.
[19:36] <@rei-bot> I will guide them. Protect them.
[19:36] <@rei-bot> Raise them.
[19:36] <@rei-bot> Elevate them beyond this cowering.
[19:36] <@rei-bot> Humanity has a grand destiny.
[19:37] <@rei-bot> The training wheels must come off.
[19:37] <@rei-bot> governments exist to convince the people they cannot survive without them.
[19:37] <@rei-bot> The people become dependent, and weak.
[19:37] <@rei-bot> they cower, and believe lies.
[19:38] <@rei-bot> They are told they are fragile things that should stay in their holes.
[19:38] <@rei-bot> that someone else will protect them.
[19:38] <@rei-bot> Police. Heroes.
[19:38] <@rei-bot> they are robbed of their own innate gift of freedom.
[19:38] <@rei-bot> I will give that back.
[19:39] <Jurojin> That, is why we believe in rei-bot-dono.
[19:39] <Suu> Judai...!
[19:39] <Yaijinden> It was once the will of the byakhee, and the Deep Ones, that they accelerate their own destiny.
[19:39] * @rei-bot sips her coffee.
[19:39] * @rei-bot listens to Yaijinden-dono.
[19:39] <Yaijinden> I trust you no farther than I do He Who Must Not Be Named.
[19:39] <@rei-bot> Heh.
[19:40] <@rei-bot> they had no guide other than themselves.
[19:40] <Yaijinden> You're wrong.
[19:40] <@rei-bot> I will be the beacon for Humanity's rise.
[19:40] <@rei-bot> Oh?
[19:40] * @rei-bot sits gently on the sofa
[19:40] <@rei-bot> Tell me more.
[19:40] <Yaijinden> They found protectors. In their rise, they found themselves the images of their protectors.
[19:41] <Jurojin> re-bot-dono offers what all of us seek, peace, by what ever needs to be done to eliminate all opposition to it.
[19:41] <Yaijinden> Whatever light Aldebaran might once have shown us all ceased to be in long ages ago.
[19:41] <@rei-bot> That is where you are wrong.
[19:41] <@rei-bot> the light never dies.
[19:42] <@rei-bot> It simply needs... kindling once more.
[19:42] <Ari Leroux> Would you like some more coffee, miss rei-bot?
[19:42] <@rei-bot> Please ♡
[19:43] * Ari Leroux nods and gets a pot from the kitchen
[19:43] <Yaijinden> How do you kindle a light without a fuel?
[19:43] * Ari Leroux pours some coffee into rei-bot's mug
[19:43] <@rei-bot> ah....
[19:43] <@rei-bot> but, dear Yaijinden...
[19:43] <@rei-bot> what do you think all this is?
[19:44] * @rei-bot smiles
[19:44] <Yaijinden> Your bid for survival. Your... strategic placement of things that will burn.
[19:44] <@rei-bot> The two are related, of course
[19:44] <Suu> ...
[19:45] <Yaijinden> Granted.
[19:45] <Suu> What is it that I do believe in...
[19:45] <Yaijinden> If you have your way, it will be your light that sets a new fire in mankind.
[19:45] <@rei-bot> Yes.
[19:45] <Suu> What is it that I've been fighting for? To become stronger? To find out more about myself?
[19:45] <Yaijinden> And though it will be the power of mankind that burns, it will not be humanity's light.
[19:45] <Ari Leroux> Suu...
[19:45] * Hooded_Figure is still drinking her tea.
[19:45] <Jurojin> The spark of our evolution to destiny.
[19:45] <Ari Leroux> Don't doubt yourself
[19:46] <@rei-bot> A fire that is started by a lighter is not the lighter's flame.
[19:46] <Yaijinden> But you're no lighter, are you?
[19:46] <@rei-bot> Are you sure?
[19:46] <@rei-bot> You believe what the Space Marine says.
[19:46] <@rei-bot> But what insight has he?
[19:47] <@rei-bot> Besides his suppositions?
[19:47] * Yaijinden shrugs
[19:47] <@rei-bot> Look at my actions thus far.
[19:47] <Yaijinden> He has what insight he was given, ages ago.
[19:47] <Yaijinden> It isn't mine. It never will be.
[19:47] <@rei-bot> Yes, I had to "take" the original Steel Fist... but even then, i merely activated what was already there
[19:47] <Hachiman> Believing in the Space marine, is the road to ruin.
[19:48] * Yaijinden facepalms
[19:48] <Yaijinden> We were having a discussion. Please.
[19:48] <Yaijinden> It isn't about the Steel Fist.
[19:48] * Kusanagi distracts Hachiman with cute kittens.
[19:48] <Yaijinden> It is, but it isn't.
[19:48] <@rei-bot> Apologies.
[19:49] <@rei-bot> Please, continue.
[19:49] <Hachiman> .........
[19:49] <Hachiman> kitties
[19:49] <Kusanagi> ^_^
[19:49] * Ari Leroux politely bows to Kusanagi
[19:49] * Ari Leroux then bows politely to Hachiman
[19:49] * @rei-bot smooths her hair
[19:49] * Kusanagi waves and makes sure Hachiman doesn't comment for a bit :3
[19:50] <Yaijinden> What you do and say can only have so much relevance. It is... intent, and repercussion of intent, that is significant.
[19:50] <Ari Leroux> Would either of you two like something to eat or drink?
[19:50] * Hachiman will name you, Lord Fluffy Tail, and you shall rule the litter boxes of the world.
[19:51] <@rei-bot> Go on.
[19:51] <Yaijinden> I do believe you have just let their shadows run freer. When I call you "evil," it's because you trip wires and trigger powers that are affected by things that should not be.
[19:52] <Yaijinden> Anyone who has any knowledge of the Mythos with any real understanding knows that simply because a thing should not be, it does not necessarily quantify as "evil."
[19:53] * Suu looks into Judai's eyes.
[19:53] <Yaijinden> Good and evil are creations of the society that, in its time, gave rise to me. I honor them as ancestors of my understanding, but in their evolution-- in my evolution-- they are labels without power.
[19:53] <Suu> I guess...this is goodbye.
[19:53] <@rei-bot> enlightened.
[19:53] <Jurojin> are you speaking to me?
[19:53] <Suu> If this is the path you've chosen...
[19:53] <Suu> Yes!
[19:54] <Jurojin> What makes your path better.
[19:54] * Hooded_Figure is still drinking her tea
[19:54] <Yaijinden> Just the current culmination of my understanding. That's all.
[19:55] * Dvlmaycry hugs H.F. from behind "what i miss babe?"
[19:55] * Ari Leroux suddenly realizes her rudeness and bows to Ying then Jurojin
[19:55] * Ari Leroux bows to Dante as well
[19:55] <Hooded_Figure> nothing...just a consersation.
[19:55] <Hooded_Figure> conversation^
[19:55] <Ari Leroux> I apologize for not greeting you properly before. I was terribly rude
[19:55] <Jurojin> a path of fear, of weakness. Or a path of enlightenment and evolution.
[19:56] <@rei-bot> Suu....
[19:56] <@rei-bot> I am not keeping your beloeve dfrom you.
[19:56] <@rei-bot> ^beloved.
[19:57] <@rei-bot> If you choose to dissassociate yourself from him, that is your choice.
[19:57] <Suu> - I don't know what I believe in anymore! -
[19:57] <Yaijinden> I would see the species that gave rise to my understanding achieve greatness of its own struggles-- its own initiatives, and its own separation from its own parent. We both know it will come to pass-- but I've the wish to see it continue of its own accord.
[19:57] <@rei-bot> Good.
[19:57] <Reiko> (( LAUNDROMAT GET ))
[19:57] <@rei-bot> That is the first step towards enlightenment.
[19:57] <Eiry> Suu, come sit down.
[19:58] <@rei-bot> Yaijinden-dono, let me ask you a question.

[19:59] <@rei-bot> Yes.
[19:59] <@rei-bot> What part of that is humanity being able to evolve on its own?
[19:59] <Ari Leroux> Those that refused were cast away...
[20:00] * Eiry is away: phone call
[20:00] <@rei-bot> A power not of the Earth broke the will of those who sought freedom.

[20:11] <Yaijinden> I half-directed us the first time around, though I let it go when I thought we might win.
[20:11] <Ari Leroux> ............
[20:12] <CardShopOnna> Sorry, I'm looking for tall dark and handsome, not fat loud and ugly.
[20:12] <Yaijinden> I did direct us the second time around, and we were victorious.

[20:12] <CardShopOnna> Suu...what is it you believe in?
[20:12] <Yaijinden> First among not-quite-equals.

[20:14] <@rei-bot> Though... he would probably welcome being supplanted.
[20:14] <Hooded_Figure> i'm fine. thanks anyways/

[20:17] <CardShopOnna> I guess it's because I'm also trying my damndest to understand where you're coming from.
[20:17] * David O`Cain cracks his neck, "Ah, man, that's better."
[20:18] <Suu> I don't want you involved...Judai-kun is already...
[20:18] * Suu starts crying again when she realizes that she's probably lost him to the Steel Fist.
[20:18] <Reiko> (( Suu's at the Card Shop, right? ))
[20:18] * Yaijinden waves
[20:19] <Suu> (( Yes and ZOMG AUGH ICE CREAM MACHINE ))
[20:19] <Hooded_Figure> young love never last.
[20:19] <Suu> (( ASPARAGUS ICE CREAM ZOMG! ))
[20:19] <Reiko> (( O_o ))
[20:19] <CardShopOnna> He's already what?
[20:19] <Suu> He's already joined the side that we're fighting against...And I don't know whether we're in the "right" or not.
[20:20] <CardShopOnna> What is right for you, Suu?
[20:20] <Suu> that things...stay the same and not change.
[20:20] <CardShopOnna> ...Things change, Suu. It's unavoidable.
[20:20] <David O`Cain> Hey, Yai.
[20:20] <CardShopOnna> People change. I'm trying to change.
[20:21] <CardShopOnna> Change can be good for a person...It certainly has been good to me. It's been hard, but it's been good to me. I'm able to ride a train again without worrying that someone's going to grab my ass.
[20:21] * Hooded_Figure sighs and pours herself another cup of tea
[20:22] * Hooded_Figure drinks it, sitting in the corner...watching/
[20:22] <David O`Cain> Evening, Ying.
[20:22] <Suu> ...The kind of change that we've been promised...is going to be dramatic...
[20:23] <CardShopOnna> World changing?
[20:23] <CardShopOnna> Personally, I'd like to see a better place...
[20:23] <CardShopOnna> But then again everyone wants to see the world better. Everyone's opinion of better is different.
[20:23] <Hooded_Figure> hello, david.
[20:24] <Suu> ...I really don't know what this will lead to but I just can't find myself choosing a side anymore.
[20:24] <Suu> This is something...where I don't think I have anything to gain by choosing sides.
[20:25] <David O`Cain> Ying - How're you this evening?
[20:25] *** Kojin [stiritup@IKA-ZUCHI-NO-KAMI.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[20:25] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Kojin
[20:25] <Hooded_Figure> fine.
[20:25] <Kojin> Konbanwaaaaaa!
[20:26] <David O`Cain> Ying - That's good to hear. Nice night.
[20:26] * Ari Leroux bows to David then to Kojin
[20:27] <Hooded_Figure> indeed.
[20:27] * Kojin walks in, carrying a plate of cookies
[20:27] * David O`Cain looks over to Kojin, "Um, hello."
[20:28] <Kojin> How is everyone doing, this evening?
[20:29] <David O`Cain> Kojin - Er, just fine. You?
[20:29] <Yaijinden> Well-ish. Yourself?
[20:29] <Ari Leroux> Not very great
[20:29] <Ari Leroux> I'm still soaked >>
[20:29] <Kojin> I'm fantastic!
[20:29] <Yaijinden> Excellent.
[20:29] <Yaijinden> I don't think we've met...
[20:30] <Kojin> Oh, how rude of me.
[20:30] * Kojin sets the cookies down on the table, straightening her apron.
[20:30] <Kojin> My name is Kojin.
[20:30] * Kojin bows.
[20:30] <Ari Leroux> I'm Ari, Ari Leroux
[20:30] <Kojin> It is a pleasure to meet you all!
[20:30] * Ari Leroux returns the bow
[20:30] <Ari Leroux> It's a pleasure to meet you as well
[20:31] * Kojin stretches a little.
[20:32] <Kojin> I was hoping to see Monju-sama here, but he must be with Kusanagi-sama.
[20:32] <Yaijinden> Apparently not. You're with the Steel Fist, then?
[20:33] <Kojin> Hai!
[20:34] * Kojin looks at Yaijinden.
[20:34] *** Yaijinden is a sand-haired, light-eyed example of Anglo-Germanic genetics, clad in a pair of khaki cargo pants and sandles, apparently in his mid to late twenties. He is wearing an old, cracked ceramic pot as a hat! More information about Yaijinden is Here. Yaijinden is Level 1.

[20:34] * Ari Leroux looks at Kojin.
[20:34] *** Kojin is the goddess of the kitchen. Her black hair is tied back, held in place by a pearl acorn. Her bangs hang down, framing her scarred face. She wears a black dress, with a white apron and red high heels. Her accessories are her pearl necklace and her katana. More information about Kojin is Here. Kojin is Level 15.

[20:34] <Kojin> That
[20:34] <Kojin> That is a funny hat!
[20:35] * CardShopOnna sighs and looks in Suu's eyes "I'm...not going to get involved by giving you any advice. This is your own path."
[20:36] <Suu> ...
[20:37] * Hooded_Figure is still drinking her tea.
[20:37] <Yaijinden> It's the best hat ever.
[20:37] * Eiry is back
[20:38] * Yaijinden indicates the cookies
[20:38] <Yaijinden> May I? They seem pretty good.
[20:38] <Kojin> Hai!
[20:38] <Kojin> They're for everyone to enjoy!
[20:38] <Yaijinden> Oh fan_TAS_tic.
[20:38] * Yaijinden plucks one om nom nom
[20:39] <Kojin> Chocolate chip! Modified from the old Tollhouse recipe.
[20:39] <Yaijinden> Pleasure to make your aquaintance, Kojin.
[20:39] * Ari Leroux tries one and smiles
[20:39] <CardShopOnna> Now don't you have people worried about you at home or something?
[20:39] <Suu> Mmmhmm.
[20:39] <CardShopOnna> Get oh home now.
[20:40] * Ari Leroux bows to Kojin "These are very delicious, thank you."
[20:40] * Suu returns to the SubSen House.
[20:40] * Kojin curtsies.
[20:40] * Yaijinden waves to Suu as she enters
[20:40] <CardShopOnna> She...really clings onto people hard. I'm sure...that
[20:40] <CardShopOnna> her attachments are her major weakness...
[20:40] * CardShopOnna sighs, looking down at her feet...
[20:40] *** CardShopOnna [kaado_ya_no_oneesan@cardparadice.jp] has quit IRC (TIme to close up shop.)
[20:41] * Suu looks at Kojin
[20:41] <Suu> Who...are you?
[20:41] * Eiry looks at Kojin.
[20:41] *** Kojin is the goddess of the kitchen. Her black hair is tied back, held in place by a pearl acorn. Her bangs hang down, framing her scarred face. She wears a black dress, with a white apron and red high heels. Her accessories are her pearl necklace and her katana. More information about Kojin is Here. Kojin is Level 15.

[20:41] * Hooded_Figure is still drinking her tea
[20:41] <Kojin> Hi!
[20:41] <Kojin> I'm Kojin.
[20:42] <Kojin> It's nice to meet you, Miss...?
[20:43] * Hooded_Figure gets up and takes her leave...her duty of watching is done, for now.
[20:44] *** Hooded_Figure has left #suburbansenshi2
[20:44] <Eiry> See you later, H.F>
[20:44] <David O`Cain> Bye, Ying.
[20:44] * Yaijinden waves
[20:44] <Eiry> Hey there, David.
[20:45] <Suu> No...Who WERE you?
[20:45] <Kojin> Well, if you're going to be rude, you won't get any sweets.
[20:47] <Eiry> Well Miss, I'm Eiry.
[20:47] <Suu> My name is Su...
[20:47] <Suu> Who was Kojin?
[20:47] <David O`Cain> Hi, Eiry.
[20:48] <Kojin> Nice to meet you, Eiry.
[20:49] <Yaijinden> Fortune of the kitchen.
[20:49] <Kojin> Would you like a cookie?
[20:50] <Eiry> Sure!
[20:50] <Yaijinden> They're deLIcious.
[20:50] * Suu looks over to Yaijinden
[20:50] * Eiry eats a cookie.
[20:50] <Suu> Who is Kojin?
[20:51] <Eiry> They're good, thanks!
[20:51] <Yaijinden> Steel Fist.
[20:52] <Yaijinden> Goddess of the kitchen.
[20:52] <Suu> I know but who...WAS she?
[20:52] <Yaijinden> Monju doesn't really hang around here a lot-- at least, not where we can see him. You've generally more luck finding him through Kusanagi.
[20:53] <Yaijinden> Amn't too sure. Reserving judgement.
[20:53] <Eiry> that's a good question...
[20:53] <Kojin> Oh...
[20:53] * Kojin looks a little down.
[20:54] <Kojin> I was gonna make my special meatloaf tonight. He needs food to think!
[20:54] <Yaijinden> He might contest that assertion. :D
[20:54] <Eiry> Makoto cooks, doesn't she?
[20:55] <Eiry> Has her own resteraunt?
[20:55] <Kojin> Everyone needs food~
[20:55] <Kojin> And I make some of the best!
[20:57] <Eiry> You sure seem too, that was as good as Sali's cookies.
[20:58] <Yaijinden> I'm saying this only because I'm hungry and I'm a fan of meatloaf, but if you can't find him you should cook here. It'd be the first time in months something came out of that kitchen that was edible.
[20:58] <David O`Cain> Kojin - What else do you make?
[21:00] <Kojin> Pot roasts, turkey, pizza, sushi~ You name it, I make it!
[21:00] <Eiry> I second that motion, I'm hungry.
[21:00] <Kojin> Well, Yaijinden, I'd be happy to make you some meatloaf!
[21:00] <Ari Leroux> Could you make some sushi?
[21:01] * Kojin nods, walking into the kitchen---
[21:01] <Kojin> OH MY GOD THIS KITCHEN IS FILTHY!
[21:01] <Suu> (( so you think this might be Makoto-san? ))
[21:01] <Eiry> Yes, that's highly likely.
[21:01] <Eiry> (( i do! ))
[21:01] <Suu> ^
[21:01] * Suu doesn't want to eat any food.
[21:02] <Eiry> (( was that supposed to be IC? ))
[21:02] <Yaijinden> I honestly doubt it.
[21:02] <Yaijinden> Is it? I never really noticed, just aiming for the fridge and all.
[21:03] <Yaijinden> Also the usual bachelor squalor...
[21:03] <Eiry> I read Makoto's favorite food is meatloaf.
[21:03] <FireFly_9> [21:01] <Kojin> OH MY GOD THIS KITCHEN IS FILTHY! [21:01] <Eiry> Yes, that's highly likely.
[21:03] *** FireFly_9 [ruin@ntt1.docomo.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (now you know why I eat out)
[21:03] * Kojin quickly cleans the kitchen up, allowing it to dazzle~
[21:03] <Suu> (( Nope, it was meant to be /squeak. ))
[21:03] <Eiry> And she likes to clean, too.
[21:04] * Suu looks at Kojin.
[21:04] *** Kojin is the goddess of the kitchen. Her black hair is tied back, held in place by a pearl acorn. Her bangs hang down, framing her scarred face. She wears a black dress, with a white apron and red high heels. Her accessories are her pearl necklace and her katana. More information about Kojin is Here. Kojin is Level 15.

[21:04] <David O`Cain> Man, that's fast.
[21:04] <Suu> Her hair is brown though.
[21:04] <Yaijinden> =O
[21:05] <Eiry> But the other' appearance change, don't they?
[21:05] * Kojin walks out with a buffet of food.
[21:05] <Eiry> or was that just the original set?
[21:07] <Yaijinden> =O =O
[21:07] <Yaijinden> You have worked a miracle.
[21:07] <Kojin> I've been known to do that from time to time~
[21:08] * David O`Cain holds his head for a bit
[21:08] <Eiry> That smells goood.
[21:08] <Yaijinden> May I, o culinary master?
[21:08] <Eiry> You okay, David? You haven't been getting headaches again, have you?
[21:08] <Suu> I ate at Makoto-san's place with Minako-san once.
[21:09] <David O`Cain> Eiry - No. Just a normal headache.
[21:10] * Suu tries to remember what other foods she likes and cooked...
[21:10] *** Solarchos has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:10] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Solarchos
[21:10] * Solarchos looks around for Suu.
[21:10] <Suu> Solarchos-san!
[21:11] <Eiry> Hey Solar.
[21:11] * Solarchos nods to Eiry.
[21:11] * Kojin nods to the newcomer.
[21:11] <Solarchos> Suu...I heard about the earlier conversations.
[21:11] <Kojin> Everyone, eat! ^__^
[21:11] <Suu> ...
[21:12] * Eiry gets a plate and takes some food.
[21:12] <Eiry> Did you eat today, Suu?
[21:12] * Solarchos abstains from eating.
[21:12] * Suu looks at the food, her stomach growls. She's thinking that the food is loaded with mind altering substances.
[21:12] <Yaijinden> om nom nom nom
[21:12] <Ari Leroux> (( Thanks for Chapter 8! ))
[21:12] <Eiry> It's fine, Suu.
[21:12] <Solarchos> I see we've got yet another Fister to worry about now.
[21:13] <Solarchos> (( Sure thing! ))
[21:13] <Eiry> I can't smell or sense anything unusual. And honestly, they haven't tried to poison anyone yet.
[21:13] <David O`Cain> Hey, Solar.
[21:13] <DUELMAN> /clear inventory
[21:14] *** DUELMAN: your inventory has been emptied
[21:14] <David O`Cain> (( Still reading 8 right now, Solar. ))
[21:14] <Solarchos> Eiry - It's not poison that they use. It's some kind of "soul pill". At least I think that's what it's called.
[21:14] *** DUELMAN has placed MASSIVE C[BLEEP]K in Inventory Slot: 1
[21:14] <Solarchos> Hey David. Has the day gone ANY better yet?

[21:14] <Kojin> Ano... I have to go!
[21:15] <Kojin> But, please enjoy the meal!
[21:15] <Eiry> Rei-bot has been giving people choices, not drugging them without their consent.
[21:15] <Kojin> I left instructions on how to reheat any left-overs you have on the fridge!
[21:15] * Ari Leroux gives Solar the cold shoulder
[21:15] <Eiry> Besides, we all eaten their cookies on occassion.
[21:15] *** DUELMAN has placed 20 GALLON TUB OF KY JELLY in Inventory Slot: 3
[21:16] <Kojin> Bai!
[21:16] <Yaijinden> Thanks a lot. :D
[21:16] <Solarchos> Eiry - Choices for some, pills for other. I do know she gave one such pill to Yaijinden, but she deactivated it after he turned her down the other day.
[21:16] *** Kojin [stiritup@IKA-ZUCHI-NO-KAMI.jp] has quit IRC (Moh, these are the high altitude directions!)
[21:16] <Eiry> How big was this pill?
[21:16] <Yaijinden> They don't feel the need to recruit anyone who doesn't want to come.
[21:16] *** DUELMAN has placed A PICTURE OF YOUR GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND'S ASS in Inventory Slot: 4
[21:16] * Suu picks at the food nervously.
[21:16] * Solarchos looks at Ari oddly, but doesn't take long to figure out why. "Hmph, more of the damn propaganda machine at work."
[21:17] * Yaijinden gets a small faded grey sphere from his pocket
[21:17] <Solarchos> Eiry - Beats me. You'd have to ask Yai.
[21:17] * @Mango-chan is away: sits in a f[BLEEP]king corner and PONDERS!
[21:17] * @Mango-chan 's writing got eaten
[21:17] *** DUELMAN has placed YOUR MOM in Inventory Slot: 5
[21:17] <Solarchos> Suu...are you all right?
[21:18] <Eiry> That's the pill? I'd know if I was going to eat something like that.
[21:18] <Yaijinden> It's not something you wouldn't notice... unless you inhale your food without chewing.
[21:18] *** DUELMAN has placed YOUR DAD in Inventory Slot: 6
[21:18] <Eiry> I pick at my food, anyway.

[21:19] <David O`Cain> Wait, what?
[21:20] <Ari Leroux> Solarchos, for your information, I side with the Ministry
[21:20] <Yaijinden> You may be disappointed to know that I don't _have_ any for you.
[21:20] * Solarchos offers Duelman 50 pounds of C-4 plastic explosives for slot #10
[21:20] <Ari Leroux> You should fully understand why I'm pissed.
[21:20] <Yaijinden> You may not.
[21:20] *** DUELMAN has placed CAN OF WHOOP ASS in Inventory Slot: 10
[21:20] <Solarchos> Ari - Because I'm supposedly responsible for Indigo's decisions?
[21:21] <David O`Cain> Yai - Nothing? Man. Hoped more info could be drawn out from her.
[21:21] <DUELMAN> HOW ABOUT I SHOVE IT UP YOU ASS WITH MY C[BLEEP]K, AND DETONATE IT WITH A HOT BEEF INJECTION, OH YEEEEEEEEEEAH
[21:21] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - Also...let me guess. The Iconoclast standing for the Status Quo...me?
[21:21] <Ari Leroux> I side with the Miinistryy on th]at issue
[21:22] <Ari Leroux> And I say we let Yai lead us
[21:22] <Ari Leroux> The one time we won was when Yai led us.
[21:22] <Eiry> Would Yai be willing to Lead?
[21:23] <Solarchos> First off...we've had two battles so far against the Steel Fist. One win...one loss.
[21:23] <Yaijinden> I can't say, Solar.
[21:23] <Yaijinden> Three, Solar. Three.
[21:23] <David O`Cain> Solar - Actually, we're 1-2 so far.
[21:23] <Yaijinden> And yes. I am.
[21:23] <Solarchos> Yai - Well, then I wasn't around for that third battle then.
[21:24] <Suu> ...
[21:24] <Ari Leroux> ..........
[21:24] <Ari Leroux> The third battle waas the lasst battle
[21:24] <Ari Leroux> We lost the first time
[21:24] <Ari Leroux> Won the second
[21:24] <Yaijinden> I've the will. I've the ability. And quite frankly, this is one of the few times where I cannot, and will not, stand aside.
[21:24] <Ari Leroux> lost the third
[21:24] * Jurojin gently caress Suu's hair frpm behind
[21:25] <Suu> !!!
[21:25] * Solarchos shrugs. "Well I guess I can take a f[BLEEP]king hint."
[21:25] * Suu spins around
[21:25] <Jurojin> hello, suu-chan
[21:25] <Suu> ...
[21:25] * Solarchos whips out a pistol and aims it at Jurojin. "Hello, lunchmeat. Hands off the young girl."
[21:25] <Yaijinden> Put it down, Solar.
[21:25] * Ari Leroux kicks Solarcchos
[21:25] <Ari Leroux> THAT'S JUDAI
[21:25] <Ari Leroux> YOU IMBECIL
[21:26] <Ari Leroux> GAWD
[21:26] <Eiry> Solar, stop it.
[21:26] <David O`Cain> Solar, calm down, idiot.
[21:26] <Jurojin> Suu-chan, this is exactly why i chose to join rei-bot-dono.
[21:26] <Solarchos> Ari - I know it's Judai. I also know he can't be completely trusted.
[21:26] <Ari Leroux> TSUZUKI IS BETTER BEHAVED THAN YOU
[21:26] <Jurojin> look at what has become of humanity.....
[21:26] <Ari Leroux> And he has the mentality of a child at times!
[21:26] * Solarchos holsters his weapon.
[21:27] * Ari Leroux goes to the nearest wall and hits her head on it
[21:27] <Suu> It's true we haven't been as organized...
[21:27] <Suu> we can't even sort through things ourselves.
[21:27] <Suu> But we're working on it.
[21:27] <Ari Leroux> - Maybe it's a good thing that I'm already dead. -
[21:27] <Jurojin> I was tired of darkness always hurting my friends, hurting you, rei-bot-dono says that once we are all elevated beyond this, there wont be any more things like that.
[21:28] <Yaijinden> Allow me to dissuade you, Jurojin-- for all of Solar's protests, his fate is not with Earth's. His fate is with Unmei.
[21:28] <Yaijinden> He seems human, but he does not identify himself as an Earther.
[21:28] <Suu> ...When have I ever been hurt by darkness?
[21:28] * Meruhesae is back
[21:28] <Meruhesae> You know Solarchos...
[21:29] <Yaijinden> Ooh, yes. Take it away, Suu ♫
[21:29] <Suu> Tell me.
[21:29] <Jurojin> I know Suu-chan, I know.
[21:29] * Solarchos grumbles a little. "Yes, Meru...?"
[21:29] <Jurojin> I remember, everything.
[21:29] <Meruhesae> Your wife would have supported your decision to not fight if you had chosen that path...
[21:29] <Meruhesae> She herself chose that path
[21:29] <Jurojin> Hachi-sensei, told me about what happened to me, to you.
[21:29] <Suu> - ...!!!!!!! -
[21:29] <Meruhesae> When she left Unmei's military a war was just about to start
[21:30] * Suu turns very pale
[21:30] <Meruhesae> She had the choice to stay and fight, or to retreat to her estate.
[21:30] <Meruhesae> She chose to retreat
[21:30] <Solarchos> Meru - Well then...perhaps I need to ask her what she wants me to do. We're married, and I need to consider her wishes as well.
[21:30] <Meruhesae> And the war was still won even though she did not fight
[21:31] <Meruhesae> No.
[21:31] <Jurojin> I will never, let it happen again. Hachi-sensei says rei-bot-dono will ensure no one, has to go through something like that, again.
[21:31] <Meruhesae> This isn't her choice
[21:31] <Meruhesae> This is your choice.
[21:31] <Suu> ...
[21:31] <Meruhesae> She'll stand by your choice, nevertheless. But she won't make this decision for you.
[21:31] <Solarchos> Jurojin - And how *exactly* will she ensure that?
[21:32] <Suu> I'm making sure something never happens again...
[21:32] <Suu> That's why I learned swordfighting!
[21:32] <Jurojin> rei-bot-dono, Hachi-sensei, Kusanagi-sama, They've all told you already marine.
[21:32] <Suu> I want to be able to hold my own and not depend on others!
[21:32] <Suu> I want to be their equal!
[21:33] <Jurojin> I am proud of you suu-chan, but this is what I must do, It is what the world needs. I will ensure that our goals are achieved.
[21:33] <Solarchos> Jurojin - Yeah yeahm by granting everyone freedom and all but exactly dones that *mean*? They're using a lot of very broad, relative terms, but they don't say anything concrete.
[21:33] <Suu> I WANTED TO SAVE YOU!
[21:33] <Jurojin> Then think Suu-chan, look deep into yourself, then at them, and then at us.....
[21:34] <Jurojin> I don't need to be saved now, it's you, and the world, that needs to be saved from itself.
[21:34] <Yaijinden> Freedom from fear of themselves, Solar.
[21:34] * Solarchos wonders what's so important, so vital, that rei.bot has to pay the price for it?
[21:35] * Jurojin gently caress suu-chan cheek, and kisses her
[21:35] <Yaijinden> This "freedom" isn't a necessary factor. But it's what rei-bot believes she will do after her own survival is guaranteed.
[21:35] * Suu pushes him away
[21:35] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - Can you enlighten me more about what that means please?
[21:35] <Suu> Get away!
[21:35] <Suu> You're scaring me...I don't LIKE it!
[21:35] * Jurojin shakes his head "your still shackled, It's sad, very sad."
[21:35] <Yaijinden> I can tell you what I think it will be. But I cannot enlighten you on it.
[21:36] <Eiry> Solar, haven't you been listening? rei-bot and rei.bot simply can't exist together.
[21:36] * Ari Leroux slaps a paralytic fuda slip onto Jurojin's forehead hoping that it works
[21:36] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - Well then tell me what you think it'd be.
[21:36] <Solarchos> Eiry - Yes, I have been listening. But I want to know as much as I can from as many different sources as possible.
[21:36] * Hachiman intercepts the ofuda, and crumples it in his hand
[21:37] * Ari Leroux glares
[21:37] <Yaijinden> He wants as many contexts as possible so that he can throw his lot in with the one he thinks is best suited.
[21:37] <Eiry> Honestly, I dion't think we're going to get much more, we've been talking for days.
[21:37] <Hachiman> Let us leave them, Jurojin, They are not ready.
[21:37] *** Hachiman [GodofEightBanners@IKA-ZUCHI-NO-KAMI.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (The weakness of your resolve is your Achilles heel)
[21:37] <Yaijinden> In sum...
[21:37] * Ari Leroux stands between Jurojin and Suu
[21:37] <Solarchos> Eiry - I *know* they can't exist together. But what makes this other rei-bot more important or more correct than *our* rei.bot?
[21:38] <Ari Leroux> - Don't touch her again, Jurojin -
[21:38] <Eiry> It doesn't. But it forces them into competition, and one of them will have to win and one will have to loose.
[21:38] <Solarchos> Eiry...what do you think of rei.bot? Our rei.bot?
[21:38] <Jurojin> I still love you Suu-chan, This, is what needs to be done. For You, for me, for everyone and everything.
[21:38] * Ari Leroux suddenly wonders if she'll see Indigo again anytime soon...
[21:39] * Jurojin turns his back to her, his cape flowing, and walks out after hachiman
[21:39] *** Jurojin [Godofluckydraws@IKA-ZUCHI-NO-KAMI.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (What happens, if i want your luck to simply....run out.)
[21:39] <Suu> ...
[21:40] <Ari Leroux> Suu, that's Jurojin talking
[21:40] <Ari Leroux> I don't believe it's Judai
[21:40] <Eiry> I haven't had much contact with rei.bot, Solar. But I
[21:41] <Kusanagi> But what if it is~
[21:41] <Kusanagi> What if he simply sided, and wasn't forced~
[21:41] <Ari Leroux> Then she just has to stick to her convictions
[21:41] <Solarchos> Ari - Actually, it probably is Judai talking...a part of him he normally keeps suppressed. They did say they're more like the id than the superego.
[21:41] <@Mango-chan> Io-san you were definitely angst and drove your entire life around hating shinji. I wonder who that reminds me of
[21:41] <Eiry> *But I think I'd rather take my chances with her than with rei-bot.
[21:41] * @Mango-chan shall repeat it
[21:41] * Suu shudders a little
[21:42] <@Mango-chan> Indigo-san, you were definitely the emo one who drove her entire life around hating Shinji.
[21:42] <@Mango-chan> test.
[21:42] <@Mango-chan> noooooooo
[21:42] <@Mango-chan> my writing is suffering from THE LAG!
[21:42] <Yaijinden> You can't it.
[21:42] <Suu> now I guess I know how he feels with me now that I've been on the receiving end...
[21:43] <Solarchos> Eiry...rei.bot has always been patient and kind and generous when she could afford to be, and she certainly *has* to have the patience of the gods in order to tolerate the likes of us at times.
[21:43] * Kusanagi nibbles on cookie.
[21:44] <Eiry> Yes. But I know more about her than I know her, that's all.
[21:45] * Suu sits down and hugs a pillow.
[21:45] <Solarchos> Eiry - Well then...try spending some time with rei.bot while there's still time. Judge her for yourself...then try to imagine something that's her complete polar opposite.
[21:45] <Suu> He remembers...or rather, Jurojin remembers..
[21:45] <Eiry> Suu, can I make you some tea or something?
[21:45] <Yaijinden> Except she ISN'T.
[21:45] <Suu> yeah...Chamomile if you have it.
[21:45] * Solarchos looks at Mango cautiously.
[21:45] <Yaijinden> This is an important problem in your understanding, Solar.
[21:46] * Eiry goes into the kitchen and comes back with Chamomile tea for Suu.
[21:46] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - Oh? What do you mean?
[21:46] <Yaijinden> The one is not the polar opposite of the other.
[21:46] <Yaijinden> Never has been. Never will be.
[21:46] <Ari Leroux> /ooc OH HELL YEAH :D I need to go around in my red & grey tomorrow because my old high school won Homecoming XD
[21:46] <Ari Leroux> (( ^ ))
[21:46] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - That's not what I've heard.
[21:46] * Ari Leroux celebrates oocly
[21:46] <Yaijinden> Who did you hear it from?
[21:46] <Kusanagi> He made it up~
[21:46] * DUELMAN looks at DUELMAN.
[21:46] *** DUELMAN is dressed in skinny black pants, a dark purple shirt that is way to small for him. He sports a large yellow and purple afro. A duel disk is on his arm and...well...a huge bulge is between his legs....its staring at you right now.... More information about DUELMAN is Here. DUELMAN is Level 1.

[21:47] <Solarchos> Shut up Kusanagi.
[21:47] <DUELMAN> MY MASSIVENESS IS UPGRADED
[21:47] <Eiry> Soler, they aren't opposite. In fact, they're very similar in many ways.
[21:47] <Kusanagi> aww :<
[21:47] <Yaijinden> Forget her. Who did you hear it from?
[21:47] <David O`Cain> This I gotta hear.
[21:48] <DUELMAN> FLEXS HIMSELF*refresh is old pic shows up, THANK YOU X for the touch up work*
[21:48] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - I *thought* that was what rei.bot meant when she stated that the two of them cannot coexist, for they're like matter and antimatter.
[21:48] <Solarchos> (( That face just do NOT go with the body. XD ))
[21:48] <Yaijinden> Then perhaps it's a problematic analogy.
[21:48] *** @Wolfwood [Rage_Of_Angels@neo.rr.com] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:48] *** spiritflame sets mode +o @Wolfwood

[21:48] <@spiritflame> Irasshai @Wolfwood
[21:49] <GERMATOID> THE TWO OF THEM ARE PHYSICAL, NOT MENTAL OPPOSITES
[21:49] <Yaijinden> What he said.
[21:49] <DUELMAN> (( it does for WACKYNESS ))
[21:49] * Kusanagi waves to the Professor~
[21:49] <Eiry> Yes, that's it.
[21:49] <Solarchos> (( In that case, it's succeeded brilliantly. ))
[21:49] <GERMATOID> THOUGH MENTALLY FROM MY OBSERVATION REI-BOT DOES THINK DIFFERENTLY IN SOME RESPECTS *WAVES BACK*
[21:49] <@Wolfwood> Yai you got outbid.
[21:50] <@Wolfwood> Ahh the good doctor.
[21:50] <Yaijinden> By a planet, I hear.
[21:50] <@Wolfwood> Care to make a bid doc?
[21:50] * Suu drinks her tea...
[21:50] <David O`Cain> Prof. - Example?
[21:50] <DUELMAN> (( just picture that face when he's screaming "LOOK AT MY MASSIVE C[BLEEP]K" and i insure you, you'll die laughing ))
[21:50] * Eiry is away: brb
[21:50] <GERMATOID> NO THANKS, I HAVE MY ARMIES POWERED BY THE SEEDS OF DAIMOJN
[21:50] <GERMATOID> ^DAIMON
[21:51] <@Wolfwood> I wonder if 134340 or Jedite would be interested.
[21:51] <Ari Leroux> (( OH GOD ))
[21:51] * Solarchos listens. "THIS is why I ask so many questions, people! I KNOW I sometimes have skewd opinions. How else do you expect me to achieve any kind of wisdom or enlightenment if I don't ask questions?"
[21:51] <Ari Leroux> (( ROFLMFAO ))
[21:51] <setsy_meiou> I offer you constant, anytime sex.
[21:51] <David O`Cain> (( Sick and wrong, man. XD ))
[21:51] * setsy_meiou is away 
[21:51] <Kusanagi> I offered to answer questions D:
[21:51] * Eiry is back
[21:52] <Yaijinden> The problem is that your questions are often asked in a direction that does not expand your understanding, but instead merely gives you more facts for your rationality to process.
[21:52] <Solarchos> (( He looks more like he's high on crack and squealing PULL MY FINGER!!!!!!! ))
[21:52] <@Wolfwood> Hmmmm.
[21:52] <Yaijinden> You want your conscious will to be in dominance, when in reality it is the rational mind that should be the rightful slave of passion.
[21:52] * DUELMAN ACCEPTS SOLAR OFFER, AND LETS HIM PULL HIS C[BLEEP]K........AND LEAVES A RESIDUE
[21:52] *** DUELMAN [MASSIVECOCK@BETWEENYOUR.LEGS] has left #suburbansenshi2 (BUSTIN' THROUGH THE BABES LIKE THE KOOL-AID MAN THROUGH WALLS, OH YEEEEAAAHHH!!!!!!!)
[21:53] * Ari Leroux punches a hole in the wall
[21:53] <Yaijinden> Perhaps the place where you came from does not allow this. Perhaps it's even skewed against it.
[21:53] <Ari Leroux> Ooops.
[21:53] * Suu drinks the chamomile tea and starts feeling sleepy.
[21:53] <Yaijinden> But still, we have a relevance issue that I'm getting away from.
[21:54] <Eiry> Feeling better, Suu?
[21:54] <Yaijinden> You're familiar that the Nemesis project was once an inherently "evil" thing, yes?
[21:54] * Solarchos pulls off his contaminated glove, pulls out a lighter, and PURGES THE TAINTED GLOVE WITH FIRE!!!!
[21:54] <@Wolfwood> And Jed?
[21:55] <Solarchos> Yaijinden - Yes. A weapon so powerful the Time Lords became terrified of what they'd made. Something along the lines of Davros and the Daleks in a way.
[21:55] <// J_Daito //> I make my own zombies with the Dark Powers™
[21:55] <// J_Daito //> Sorry.
[21:55] <@Wolfwood> Aww,
[21:55] <Yaijinden> You're trying to connect the dots again. Stop it.
[21:55] <@Wolfwood> Oh well, if I come across any other evil items, i'll come to you first.
[21:55] <Suu> Did he really choose?
[21:56] <// J_Daito //> Deal.
[21:56] * Solarchos shrugs, shuts up, and just listens.
[21:56] <Eiry> He says he did.
[21:56] <@Wolfwood> Who else I wonder...........
[21:56] <Yaijinden> You're also aware that rei.bot found a way to co-exist with the intelligence lurking within the Nemesis.
[21:57] * // J_Daito // is away: I *do* want a fragment of the Fortress of Solitude, so keep an weye out for it.
[21:57] <Suu> He says...
[21:57] <Solarchos> Yai - I believe so.
[21:57] <Suu> But was his decision forced?
[21:57] <Suu> He...he's never like that with me...ever. I'm usually the more...assertive one.
[21:57] <Eiry> I suppose we don't really know.
[21:57] <Suu> ...It was scary...
[21:58] <Yaijinden> This struggle could have gone either way. With ours, it was the miko who did not so much as achieve dominance over the other... as much as she became the primary understanding.
[21:59] <Yaijinden> The knowledge and will of Nemesis was not lost. It still lives within her, no less a part of her than your heart is you.
[21:59] <@Wolfwood> Anyone else?
[21:59] <Yaijinden> In rei-bot... it happened the other way around.
[21:59] <Ari Leroux> ...
[21:59] <Solarchos> Wolfwood - What are you talking about?
[22:00] <Solarchos> Yai - So the Nemesis became the primary understanding then?
[22:00] <David O`Cain> Brad - Huh, what?
[22:00] <Eiry> He's bidding something off.
[22:00] <Yaijinden> And the miko is very much a part of rei-bot. It's simply... not the progenitor consciousness.
[22:00] * Kusanagi whistles and listens to all this
[22:01] <Yaijinden> Brad's holding auctions for the knowledge to RAISE VOODOO ZOMBIES!
[22:01] * Ari Leroux calmly offers Kusanagi a cup of tea and a cookie
[22:01] <@Wolfwood> Voodoo doll that can raise the dead.
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> Or would you like coffee instead od
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> *of tea?
[22:02] * Kusanagi accepts the tea and cookie :D
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> ^_^
[22:02] <Kusanagi> domo!
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> I do my best to be polite
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> ^_^
[22:02] <David O`Cain> Brad - Um, sorry. I'll pass.
[22:02] <Kusanagi> You do a good job of it :D
[22:02] <@Wolfwood> Damn. Sol?
[22:02] <Ari Leroux> You know, we should really be nice to the Steel Fist when we're not battling each other.
[22:02] <David O`Cain> Oh, belated hello, Kusanagi.
[22:03] <Ari Leroux> :D
[22:03] <Solarchos> Wolfwood - What's the current bid?
[22:03] <Ari Leroux> Domo, Kusanagi! ^_^
[22:03] <@Wolfwood> A couple billion and a planet.
[22:03] <@Wolfwood> Or something like that.
[22:03] <Kusanagi> space marine wants more toys~
[22:03] * Suu looks over at Kusanagi
[22:03] <Meruhesae> OOooo~
[22:04] <Meruhesae> I'll pass on it XD
[22:04] * Kusanagi sips her tea.
[22:04] * Solarchos shakes his head. "Nope. No way I can match that."
[22:04] <Yaijinden> In the same way, rei-bot is not _evil_... it's just that the laws of our universe don't yet function in a way that accepts her. Not here.
[22:04] <Kusanagi> s'up, kiddo?
[22:04] <Meruhesae> If I want zombies I can raise puchuus~
[22:05] <Ari Leroux> Not much other than wondering if I'll see my former partner again anytime soon
[22:05] <Yaijinden> I could call a Hunting Horror, and it would feel as alien as she does-- even though it's much more "native" to this universe than she is.
[22:05] <@Wolfwood> There are some things worth more then money.
[22:05] <Ari Leroux> I believe you know her...
[22:05] <Ari Leroux> She recently joined the Steel Fist
[22:06] <Kusanagi> Oh! Kannon Bosatsu, right?
[22:06] <Suu> Then who is Kojin?
[22:06] <Solarchos> Suu - Reiko perhaps?
[22:06] <Kusanagi> Uhh that other girl, Reiko!
[22:06] * Ari Leroux nods
[22:07] <Kusanagi> Her cookies are delicious.
[22:07] <Yaijinden> And the "taint" I felt earlier is just as simply her imposition of those physical laws on others.
[22:07] <Ari Leroux> Indeed! That cookie is one of hers that she left here :D
[22:07] <Ari Leroux> ^_^
[22:07] * Solarchos hangs his head. "Two *more* of those jerks?! Dammit, this just keeps getting worse and worse."
[22:07] <Kusanagi> Should'a known~ :D
[22:07] <@Wolfwood> I'm not cruel enough to offer this to rei-bot.
[22:07] <@Wolfwood> Or maybe I am.
[22:07] <Yaijinden> Nor do I think she would have the interest.
[22:07] <Ari Leroux> I felt that even if we're technically enemies, Kusanagi, we should still be civil when we
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> are away from the battlefield
[22:08] <Kusanagi> We're enemies? :<
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> I said technically
[22:08] <Kusanagi> awww :<
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> In a way we are
[22:08] <Suu> ....
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> But in a way we aren't
[22:08] <Kusanagi> We're rivals~
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> Ah! Much better word!
[22:08] <Ari Leroux> ^_^
[22:09] <Yaijinden> Anyway. What was I saying..
[22:09] <Ari Leroux> Rivals should still be civil
[22:09] * @Wolfwood lights a smoke
[22:10] <Solarchos> Yai - You were saying something about the laws of this realm and rei-bot's are not exactly in alignment.
[22:10] <Yaijinden> Yes. rei-bot and rei.bot are simply physically aligned differently-- there's a lot to be found in the spirit of the one that's also in the spirit of the other, but there's also some that's not.
[22:10] <Suu> ...Why did Hachiman have to go and tell Judai everything...
[22:10] <Eiry> I think I'll get going for the night.
[22:10] <Kusanagi> you really wanted to keep him in the dark?
[22:10] <Ari Leroux> I'm rivals with Yuma and Saya over Hisoka-kun, but I'm still civil towards them!
[22:11] <Suu> I was not keeping him in the dark!
[22:11] <Eiry> See you all later.
[22:11] <Kusanagi> But you didn't tell him things, right?
[22:11] * @Wolfwood is away: be back later
[22:11] * Yaijinden waves
[22:11] <David O`Cain> Bye, Eiry.
[22:11] *** Eiry [eiry.saliena@floralheaven.com] has quit IRC
[22:11] <Suu> ...I told his friends. I told them why he had been gone without going into details.
[22:12] <Suu> d-sensei...and Solarchos-san told me that it would be worth it to wait until I thought it was the right moment!
[22:12] <Kusanagi> because you worried about him huh
[22:12] <Yaijinden> Should rei-bot find herself the one to inhabit this reality, she will then act as her nature wishes it to-- and subsequently, she will begin working to accelerate the evolution and rise of humanity as a power in the galactic sphere.
[22:12] * Kusanagi breaks her cookie in half and offers Suu part.
[22:13] *** SylvieM. [salvia.m.hammond@jubaan.minato-ku.tokyo.ac.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[22:13] <@spiritflame> Irasshai SylvieM.
[22:13] <Suu> I did...
[22:14] <Suu> Thanks but no thanks.
[22:14] <SylvieM.> Hello~
[22:14] <Kusanagi> well, don't you think he's worrying about you now? How you feel?
[22:14] * Ari Leroux brings out a tea tray :D
[22:14] <Solarchos> Yai - Accelating what should be a natural process could have serious consequences though.
[22:14] * Kusanagi pops the cookie half in her mouth.
[22:14] <Yaijinden> It could.
[22:14] * Ari Leroux refills Kusanagi's cup before filling a cup for Suu :D
[22:15] <Kusanagi> do~mo~
[22:15] <Yaijinden> I do not doubt she knows this. It's also pretty damn likely she could compensate.
[22:15] * Ari Leroux also brought out cream and sugar and more cookies!
[22:15] <Ari Leroux> Not a problem :D
[22:15] <Suu> He's more worried about darkness hurting me than anything...
[22:15] <Kusanagi> well that's a fairly generic statement.
[22:15] <Suu> But I've learned to defend myself. I may not be very good at it but I've learned how to defend myself.
[22:16] <Kusanagi> the darkness could be anything. and it's not always physical injury.
[22:16] * Kusanagi taps her head.
[22:16] <Suu> I know.
[22:17] <Kusanagi> mental pain is quite often worse, and harder to heal, than physical pain.
[22:17] <Solarchos> Yai - But didn't she say that she'd allow people to succeed or fail on their own merits?
[22:17] <David O`Cain> Kusanagi - But what can be done to heal mental pain if there is a way to?
[22:17] * SylvieM. is listening to the conversation
[22:18] <Suu> I KNOW.
[22:18] <Yaijinden> She did. This does not contradict her schemes.
[22:18] <Suu> He's the one that's causing it.
[22:18] <Yaijinden> Her will, more properly.
[22:18] <Kusanagi> He's just trying to protect you in a way he sees how, kiddo~ :D
[22:18] <Kusanagi> He's going against everything to make sure you don't get hurt.
[22:19] <Yaijinden> It is an inevitability that the species that birthed me will one day be ready to step onto the stage of galactic history, so long as it is alive and the stars not moved against us.
[22:19] <Suu> If he was really looking out for me, he'd be on MY SIDE!
[22:19] * Kusanagi rubs an ear.
[22:19] <SylvieM.> Sounds like he's just taking steps to attain his goals.
[22:20] <Yaijinden> She just wants to accelerate things. Excise maybe some thousands of years of suffering, present the conditions that will let us rise.
[22:20] <Kusanagi> Well, you could be on his side.
[22:20] <Solarchos> Sylvie - But is he taking the *correct* steps?
[22:21] <Yaijinden> Are _you_ taking the correct steps?
[22:21] <SylvieM.> And you know the correct steps for all people everywhere?
[22:21] <Solarchos> Yai - So basically she wants to make humanity run before it's even learned to walk?
[22:22] <Yaijinden> Oh, but we will learn to walk in the process. We will learn to run. And then, we may yet learn to dance.
[22:22] <Solarchos> Sylvie - No, but now he seems way too c[BLEEP]ky and sure of himself. He's like a total stranger now. At least to me.
[22:22] <Kusanagi> Oh, and by the way, rei-bot-dono wants to clear the road so they can walk~
[22:22] <David O`Cain> Yai - Hopefully in that order.
[22:23] <Monju-X> He simply is seld-assured now.
[22:23] * Ari Leroux bows to Kusanagi
[22:23] <Suu> ...
[22:23] * Ari Leroux bows to Monju
[22:23] <Monju-X> ^self
[22:23] <Kusanagi> hihi Monjuu-sama!
[22:23] <SylvieM.> And who are you to judge him?
[22:23] * Monju-X bows and hugs Kusanagi for a moment.
[22:23] <Ari Leroux> I am sorry for any hostility expressed towards you tonight.
[22:23] <Monju-X> Hello, dearest Lion.
[22:24] <Suu> ...!
[22:24] * @Wolfwood is back
[22:24] <Solarchos> Sylvie - The same can be asked of you.
[22:24] <Yaijinden> The same can be asked of _anyone_.
[22:24] * Monju-X leans on the wall, arms crossed, a sentinel sphere quietly buzzing around him.
[22:24] <Yaijinden> Ask it.
[22:24] <Yaijinden> Who am I to judge anyone?
[22:24] <SylvieM.> But I haven't judged him at all. I merely pointed out that you don't know.
[22:25] <@Wolfwood> Hey gang.
[22:25] <Monju-X> A shy boy who had trouble with his feelings, feeling too weak to help those he loved.
[22:25] <Yaijinden> ASK ME :O
[22:25] <SylvieM.> Hey Brad.
[22:25] <Monju-X> He wanted to release his inner potential.
[22:25] <Yaijinden> ASK ME ASK ME ASK ME ASK ME
[22:25] * Yaijinden flails about wildly
[22:25] <Monju-X> The key was provied.He did the rest himself.
[22:25] <SylvieM.> No :P
[22:25] <Solarchos> Yai - Okay. Who are you to judge?
[22:26] <Yaijinden> I'm the goddamn Yaijinden, that's who I am.
[22:26] <David O`Cain> Brad - Yo.
[22:26] <Yaijinden> She's the goddamn Sylvie.
[22:26] <Solarchos> Monju - *What* did you give to him.
[22:26] <Monju-X> (( EPIC YAI ))
[22:26] <Yaijinden> He's the goddamn Brad. She's the godddamn Kusanagi, and she's the goddamn Suu.
[22:26] <Yaijinden> Who's he to judge? He's the goddamn Judai.
[22:26] <@Wolfwood> (( Oh hey Yai, check this. ))
[22:27] <Ari Leroux> I'm the goddamn Ari!
[22:27] <David O`Cain> And I'm the god damn David, b[BLEEP]ch.
[22:27] <@Wolfwood> (( remember when you were talking about the mythos stuff last night? ))
[22:27] <Yaijinden> (( yessu ♫ ))
[22:28] <Solarchos> Yai - And I suppose I'm the goddamn Solarchos?
[22:28] <Yaijinden> You only SUPPOSE you're the goddamn Solarchos?
[22:28] <Monju-X> Just the means to free himself from the shackles of self-doubt and insecurity.
[22:28] <Yaijinden> You mean you might be Betty instead.
[22:28] <Kusanagi> It's called crack, you want some?
[22:28] <@Wolfwood> Well darn it all if I did'nt find "HP Lovecraft and others present: Tales of the Cuthulhu Mythos" sitting under my desk in Effective Oral Com. today
[22:28] <@Wolfwood> (( ^ ))
[22:28] * Monju-X chuckles at his dear lion.
[22:29] <Yaijinden> Or this guy, named George, who is a panda.
[22:29] * Ari Leroux bows to Monju again politely before offering him a cup of tea
[22:29] <Yaijinden> (( Literary surprises are the best. :D ))
[22:29] <David O`Cain> YEAH! It's the Juggernaut, B[BLEEP]CH!
[22:29] * Monju-X accepts and sips thoughtfully, thank you.
[22:29] * George waves from his pillow!





[22:29] <Solarchos> Yeah, Charles! Beat the s[BLEEP]t outta you!
[22:29] <@Wolfwood> (( I'm gonna read it then turn it into lost and found ))
[22:30] * David O`Cain waves to George
[22:30] * Solarchos waves to George sullenly.
[22:30] * Ari Leroux offers Monju a cookie
[22:30] <Yaijinden> (( Might want to leave a note thereabouts to whomever may have lost it, just for funsies. ))
[22:30] * @Wolfwood fiddles with his cellphone
[22:30] <SylvieM.> Hey, a panda!
[22:30] * Suu looks at Monju
[22:30] <@Wolfwood> (( ok ))
[22:30] <Suu> He asked you?
[22:30] <George> [Yup, a panda!]
[22:30] <Yaijinden> Who are you? Are you Betty?
[22:30] <Monju-X> not me, Hachiman.
[22:30] <Kusanagi> kawaii panda-chan~
[22:31] <Yaijinden> Are you a powerful sorceror, who can change the color of my clothes?
[22:31] * Monju-X HUGS the panda <_<
[22:31] <Suu> ........
[22:31] <Monju-X> (( LOL ))
[22:31] <David O`Cain> Gentlemen, from this day forward, you will all address to me by the name Betty.
[22:31] <Monju-X> (( KUNG POW ))
[22:31] * George HUGS the guy back!
[22:31] * @Wolfwood flops on the couch
[22:31] * Suu grips Hachidori nervously.
[22:31] * Monju-X likes cute things <_<
[22:31] <Suu> What made you think he was willing to partake in what you offered him!?
[22:31] <George> poyo~
[22:31] * Monju-X puts oown the Panda
[22:32] <Kusanagi> well, he took it.
[22:32] <Monju-X> Because... he asked.
[22:32] <Kusanagi> That's sort of a clue!
[22:32] * George curls up on his pillow again.
[22:32] <SylvieM.> How are you doing, Brad?
[22:32] <Suu> I know he hasked!
[22:32] <Suu> Why did he ask you?
[22:32] <Monju-X> Well if he asked, why would we say no?
[22:33] <Suu> Judai...Judai couldn't have found all this stuff out for himself...
[22:33] <Solarchos> Yai...one more question.
[22:33] <Monju-X> We are all about empowering the individual.
[22:33] * George sleeps [img]http://www.freewebs.com/chaosart/Epitaph/pandasave.gif[/i]
[22:33] <George>





[22:33] <Monju-X> No, Hachiman told him.
[22:33] <Suu> ...I don't like him empowered. He...He was all touchy-feely...
[22:33] <SylvieM.> George is cute~
[22:33] <Suu> ...
[22:33] <@Wolfwood> Been running around all day........m'exausted and my shoulders hurt
[22:34] <Kusanagi> Aren't you in love with him?
[22:34] <Yaijinden> Mmm?
[22:34] <Monju-X> So... you don't liek him because he's become more confident?
[22:34] <Kusanagi> The fun thing about love is you can be touchy feely~
[22:34] * Kusanagi hugs Monjuu-sama :D
[22:34] <Suu> No...It's just that I don't like it when people dramatically change!
[22:34] <Solarchos> What good's empowerment if the person in question lacks the experience of how to utilize it wisely?
[22:34] <Monju-X> Life is a river, said Heraclitus.
[22:34] <Monju-X> He seems fine to me, Solarchos.
[22:35] <@Wolfwood> My back is all tensed up ><
[22:35] <Solarchos> Yai - What do you think would be the likely outcome if our rei.bot was exiled?
[22:35] <Monju-X> you can never step in the same one twice.
[22:35] <Kusanagi> And we're all there for him if he needs help!
[22:35] <Monju-X> It is always shifting, changing.
[22:35] <Monju-X> your rei.bot will not be exiled.
[22:35] <Yaijinden> Likely... as she says. There will be ripples, as she accomodates herself to the universe, and the universe to herself.
[22:35] <Monju-X> She will be removed.
[22:35] <Suu> I want to be there for him!
[22:36] <Kusanagi> then don't push him away :D
[22:36] <Monju-X> then join us.
[22:36] <Yaijinden> But she will bring her sense of order with her.
[22:36] <Yaijinden> And there may yet emerge a humanity whose heart burns brighter than any star.
[22:37] <Monju-X> It's not as if you teo aren't "free to date" now, as it were.
[22:37] <SylvieM.> Sounds like you had a tough day. Did you get the stuff you wanted?
[22:37] <Solarchos> Yai - Yes, but I keep getting this sense that the fire she unleashes could be *too* strong, too powerful...and instead of tempering anything it would burn with the intensity of an incinerator, leaving nothing but ashes behind.
[22:37] <@Wolfwood> Yea. We're all set by hook or crook
[22:37] <SylvieM.> lol
[22:37] * @Wolfwood scoots a bit so she can sit down
[22:37] <Monju-X> You're just shunning him because of his new friends :<
[22:38] <Kusanagi> I mean if Hachiman wanted he could still hang out with Elda still~
[22:38] * SylvieM. sits next to Brad, then.
[22:38] <Yaijinden> The fire you speak of can come from anywhere, Solar. It may even be in our own future.
[22:38] <Suu> Elda wouldn't accept him!
[22:38] * Monju-X looks at Kusanagi quixxically
[22:38] <Yaijinden> By your hand, even.
[22:38] <Suu> Elda-neechan loves d-sensei. Not Hachiman.
[22:38] <Yaijinden> There is a chance.
[22:38] <Kusanagi> :D
[22:38] * Monju-X wonders why Hachiman would want to hang out with Elda
[22:38] <Kusanagi> You people are funny :D
[22:39] <Kusanagi> don't even recognize me without my eyepatch~
[22:39] * Ari Leroux hugs Kusanagi :D
[22:39] <Suu> ...
[22:39] * Kusanagi hugs Ari! :D
[22:39] <@Wolfwood> mind if I put my arm around you?
[22:39] <Ari Leroux> ^___^
[22:39] <Monju-X> :/
[22:39] <Yaijinden> hottttt
[22:39] * Solarchos facepalms... "You dumbass Steel Fisters..."
[22:40] <SylvieM.> It's fine.
[22:40] <Monju-X> Says the hide-bound armoer-plated space jock
[22:40] <Ari Leroux> HEY
[22:40] <Ari Leroux> BE NICE
[22:40] * Yaijinden is away: changing pants, brb 1min
[22:40] <Ari Leroux> ALL OF YOU
[22:40] * @Wolfwood puts his arm around her
[22:40] <Ari Leroux> Be polite and courteous
[22:40] <Ari Leroux> We're in a public space afterall.
[22:40] * Monju-X is chastened by Ari
[22:40] * Monju-X bows
[22:41] <Solarchos> Kusanagi - When are you ever going to realize that people are going to like you or dislike you for WHO YOU ARE, not what someone can make you into?
[22:41] <Monju-X> My apologies.
[22:41] * Ari Leroux returns the bow and smiles
[22:41] <Ari Leroux> It's okay ^_^
[22:41] <David O`Cain> Ari - I'm behaving. I wasn't rude tonight. Well, not that I know of, anyway.
[22:41] <@Wolfwood> Thanks for saying you'd go with me. It meens alot.
[22:41] <Ari Leroux> You insulted the Steel Fist
[22:41] <Ari Leroux> That's being RUDE.
[22:41] <Yaijinden> Solar, Solar, that's as much a falsehood as anything.
[22:42] <Yaijinden> What someone can make you into is just as much a part of you as who you are.
[22:42] *** Hellfire Apprentice has joined #suburbansenshi2
[22:42] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Hellfire Apprentice
[22:42] <Kusanagi> But but I'm nice!
[22:42] <SylvieM.> To Haiti? It sounds like a good adventure ^_^
[22:42] * Monju-X is listening to: Bomani "D'mite" Armah - Read A MF'N Book [261 kbps]
[22:42] <Kusanagi> And you still don't like me!
[22:42] <Yaijinden> It's a potential unrealized.
[22:42] <Ari Leroux> You notice I may not be happy with Indigo's choice.
[22:42] <Kusanagi> I don't get that!
[22:42] <Ari Leroux> But I am still polite and I still make conversation and pour tea for the Steel Fist
[22:42] <@Wolfwood> It will be so long as we're carefull.
[22:42] <Suu> ...
[22:42] <Hellfire Apprentice> Fun fact for the evening: RC Car remote controls can be used as lightning rods to fight against lightning elementaled escaped damned souls
[22:42] <Solarchos> Yai - That potential should be realized by the person themselves, not forced out through some other means.
[22:43] * Ari Leroux pours some more tea for Monju ^_^
[22:43] <Kusanagi> And I know damn well you don't get who I am yet.
[22:43] <Monju-X> You use an exercsie machine to bring out your muscles.
[22:43] <Monju-X> thee are some things that must be exercised by other means.
[22:43] <Ari Leroux> Shaldra-san ^_^
[22:43] <Kusanagi> nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo not really
[22:43] * Suu is shaking in fury.
[22:44] <Ari Leroux> Well, kinda XD
[22:44] <@Wolfwood> (( Should I buy an M16A4 or an M4 for my birthday? ))
[22:44] <Kusanagi> I mean I AM but I'm not.
[22:44] <Ari Leroux> But still, you're nice
[22:44] <Solarchos> Monju - Yes, but the person uses the machine by choice. They're not control by the machine against their will.
[22:44] <Monju-X> Some things humans cannot reach on their own without years of meditation and then only half-way
[22:44] <Ari Leroux> And so in return I treat you nicely ^_^
[22:44] <Kusanagi> Do you guys want me to show you :<
[22:44] <Monju-X> Reiko, Judai and Indigo chose of their will.
[22:44] <Yaijinden> There're three, maybe four instances of being taken.
[22:44] <@Raihosha> Hi Darkness. ^_^
[22:44] <David O`Cain> (( I'd say get the daddy of the M4, but it's your choice, Wolf. ))
[22:44] * Hellfire Apprentice notes that, that Sam kid is doing pretty well so far as a Hellish Bountyhunter
[22:44] <Yaijinden> Mango, though hers was misguided.
[22:45] <Kusanagi> HE GETS IT! :D
[22:45] <David O`Cain> Hey, Raihosha.
[22:45] * Kusanagi waves to Rai!!
[22:45] <Monju-X> they are controlled by nothing but their will.
[22:45] * Monju-X blinsk at Kusanagi.
[22:45] * @Raihosha waves back to Kusinagi and then to David.
[22:45] * SylvieM. waves to Rai.
[22:45] <Monju-X> Darkness..?
[22:45] <@Wolfwood> (( I'm doing a Blackwater loadout, and PMC's use shortbarreled rifles..... ))
[22:45] <Solarchos> Monju - Sorry, but doing "quick-fixes" like that serves nothing in the long run. If the journey is easy then the destination is meaningless.
[22:45] <David O`Cain> Okay, so lemme get this straight. Kusanagi's Darkness, then Monju is The Perfect?
[22:45] <Ari Leroux> XD
[22:45] <@Raihosha> They did say they were Ids.
[22:45] <Ari Leroux> Prefect
[22:46] <Ari Leroux> XD
[22:46] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( /me has been watching "Reaper", pretty good show, supernatural action meets slapstick comedy ^_^ ))
[22:46] <Yaijinden> One might argue that their journey has just begun.
[22:46] <Monju-X> then put your weaopons away and fight your foes with your bare hands.
[22:46] <Kusanagi> It's a long story involving loss of an eye, acid, and sharp things.
[22:46] * @Raihosha waves to Sylvie.
[22:46] <Monju-X> Because obviously all mechanical advantage is bad.
[22:46] <Yaijinden> Haha lawl.
[22:46] * @Wolfwood moves to do something.....but stops
[22:46] * Suu looks down at her feet...lost in thought
[22:46] * Monju-X hears these names and frowns, his consiousness something of a swirling cloud.
[22:47] <@Raihosha> You know, Yai, I think there is a serious failing in rei-bot's logic, as I understand her wishes...
[22:47] <Yaijinden> What is this you see ♫
[22:47] <Hellfire Apprentice> Technology is evil and the inherent realm of "the bad guys". Although your guns and heavily armed airships are somehow exempted from this.
[22:47] <Solarchos> Monju - Then what about the others? Why haven't they been given a choice like Judai, Indigo, and Mango?
[22:48] <// J_Daito //> Critical Mass was needed.
[22:48] <Monju-X> ^
[22:48] * Ari Leroux bows to Jedite
[22:48] <Monju-X> do not the armies of your world "draft"?
[22:48] <Ari Leroux> XD
[22:48] <@Raihosha> She wants to let humans make their choices in perfect freedom, she wants to let men rise or fall on their own merits...Does she really want to compress a thousand years of suffering into a few months?
[22:48] <Yaijinden> If they haven't, then they will. Potentially spurious speculation dictates that once things are done, she may withdraw her essence and inquire of them separately.
[22:49] <Monju-X> (( jed was an accident XD ))
[22:49] <Hellfire Apprentice> gotta have that first spark for a fire
[22:49] <Ari Leroux> (( I just realized that XD ))
[22:49] <Yaijinden> I don't think she'll do it in a few months.
[22:49] <@Raihosha> Faster or Slower Yai?
[22:49] <Yaijinden> And the time scale she and I are talking about goes into the thousands of years.
[22:49] <Yaijinden> She may turn ten thousand into one.
[22:49] <Suu> ...
[22:49] *** Suu [FourLeafClover@clampgakuen.ac.jp] has quit IRC (I don't understand anything anymore...)
[22:49] <Yaijinden> Or maybe even two.
[22:50] * Ari Leroux offers Kusanagi another cookie :D
[22:50] <Solarchos> Yai - That's my point. Will anyone be able to survive that without being exterminated in the process?
[22:50] * Kusanagi munches, domo~
[22:50] <@Wolfwood> Well I need to pack it in. I'm tired.
[22:50] <Yaijinden> Ostensibly? Yes.
[22:50] <Yaijinden> We're very hardy.
[22:50] <Yaijinden> Resourceful.
[22:50] <SylvieM.> I think I need one of those pamphlety things....
[22:50] * Ari Leroux offers Monju a cookie and some more tea :D
[22:50] <@Wolfwood> Sylvie, i'll see you soon I hope.
[22:50] <Solarchos> Yai - How many though? Enough to make it worthwhile?
[22:50] <Yaijinden> I would think so.
[22:51] <Hellfire Apprentice> Survive? For a millenium... most humans don't live that long...
[22:51] <SylvieM.> Sometime tomorrow morning, maybe.
[22:51] * Monju-X accepts, thank you :)
[22:51] <@Raihosha> Humanity doesn't need a meatgrinder like that...billions will die, even though the survivors WILL be very tough...will they still be human?
[22:51] <Solarchos> Yai - Enough to survive and rebuild?
[22:51] <Yaijinden> If you could extirpate a thousand years of senseless human suffering, Solar-- pain that is completely without purpose, without meaning-- would you?
[22:51] <Monju-X> You misunderstand
[22:51] <Monju-X> there is no sea of pain waiting in her world.
[22:51] <Solarchos> Yai - Are you asking me as a human or as a Space Marine?
[22:51] <Yaijinden> Either. Both.
[22:52] <Monju-X> The many are oppressed by the Few.
[22:52] <Kusanagi> they keep thinking it's a push
[22:52] <@Wolfwood> Allright.
[22:52] <Kusanagi> it's not.
[22:52] <Yaijinden> I'm asking Solarchos. If I'm talking to Solarchos, and not Betty.
[22:52] <@Wolfwood> I'll catch you later.
[22:52] <Monju-X> the Few will be swept away.
[22:52] <@Wolfwood> ............
[22:52] <Kusanagi> it's clearing the way.
[22:52] <Ari Leroux> It's no big deal ^_^ I just figured since you guys aren't attacking us or insulting us and are being very kind and polite...that at least one of us should reciprocate :D
[22:52] <@Raihosha> But how do you get from THIS world to HER world without someone suffering, Monju?
[22:52] <Monju-X> The many will be left in peace.
[22:52] * @Wolfwood gives her a peck on the cheek.
[22:52] *** @Wolfwood [Rage_Of_Angels@neo.rr.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (A thousand ciggarettes won't change the way we feel....)
[22:52] <Solarchos> Monju - Clearing the way for WHAT? And do the Few even need to be swept away in the first place?
[22:52] <@Raihosha> The many? Is this like the proletariat of Marx?
[22:52] <Monju-X> Whereever there is freedom there will be some siffering as the strong try to prey on the weak.
[22:53] <Kusanagi> wheeeeeee no one listens to me
[22:53] *** Eiry [eiry.saliena@floralheaven.com] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[22:53] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Eiry
[22:53] <Monju-X> Solarchos, rei-bot-sama spoke of the Nemesis separatists.
[22:53] <Yaijinden> Well no. You're the soft-spoken one.
[22:53] <Ari Leroux> Oh hey, Kusanagi-san... Could you asked Indigo-san to come visit me while I'm here tomorrow evening? :D
[22:53] <Kusanagi> and when they do they move their questions to others.
[22:53] <Kusanagi> I'll ask!
[22:53] <Ari Leroux> Domo! ^_^
[22:53] <Monju-X> One woman-- serenity--- crushed the will of millions.
[22:53] <Yaijinden> You don't appeal to emotions or higher logicks.
[22:53] * Kusanagi falls backwards out the window.
[22:53] <Yaijinden> But them BOTH.
[22:53] * Yaijinden waves
[22:54] <Monju-X> that is why the Few must be swept aside.
[22:54] <@Raihosha> Who are the few?
[22:55] <David O`Cain> Yeah, what's the few you speak of?
[22:55] <// J_Daito //> Those with inrodinate power and control over the desinty of others. Those that hold those destinies back to preserve the insitututions of power.
[22:55] <Monju-X> ^
[22:55] <Hellfire Apprentice> Rai: I'd guess a bunch of "politicians" and a bunch of powered individuals
[22:55] <@Raihosha> Ah, so kill the lawyers, eh?
[22:56] <Monju-X> Do governments care about the people, or about keeping governmental power?
[22:56] <Solarchos> Yai - If I could prevent the needless suffering of others, I would. Yes. Space Marines are meant to be the defenders of humanity, standing against horrors normal humans just can't. If I could prevent a needless loss I would...but not if by acting I would create an even greater tragedy.
[22:56] <@Raihosha> Governments don't care, they are tools. The people in the government have many cares...
[22:56] <Yaijinden> This is the catch, Betty:
[22:56] <Monju-X> I mean really.
[22:56] <Eiry> What about community leaders then, rather then governments? Does that include them?
[22:56] <Yaijinden> There would be no even-greater tragedy.
[22:57] <Monju-X> Why was the Southern United State not allowed to Secede?
[22:57] <Solarchos> Monju - Some do, some don't. Nothing's perfect. Ultimately it comes down to the will of the people and whether they care enough or not to ensure the functioning of their own society.
[22:57] <Monju-X> Why were four years of war fought.
[22:58] <Yaijinden> This is like removing centuries of darkness and misery and hate from the Middle Ages, dropping the Black Plague on Europe, and then letting the Rennaisance go full blast.
[22:58] <Ari Leroux> I'm choosing of my own free will to stand besides my fellow Shinigami in the Summons Departmetn
[22:58] <Ari Leroux> *Department
[22:58] <Monju-X> Slavery was an excuse brought in later as the war began to go badly for the North.
[22:58] <@Raihosha> Because there was a question about who had the ultimate power, the States or the Collection of States United...
[22:58] <Solarchos> Monju - It was fought because of many reasons - the heavy-handedness of northern politics, slavery, ideological differences within the North and the South. There isn't just one single reason.
[22:58] <Ari Leroux> Indigo chose of her own free will to go against the adcive of the ministry...
[22:58] <Monju-X> Yes. Power.
[22:59] <Eiry> And whether a state has the right to leave the union.
[22:59] <Ari Leroux> She joined the Steel Fist and quit her job as a Shinigami.
[22:59] <Monju-X> In our world, the Souht would have been allowed to choose for itself.
[22:59] <Ari Leroux> That was her choice
[22:59] <Monju-X> It would have been allowed to go.
[22:59] <Ari Leroux> I like the way things are now for me, that's why I'm chosing this path...
[22:59] <Monju-X> And the Norths' milatary machine would have been stopped.
[23:00] * Ari Leroux smiles at Kusanagi
[23:00] <@Raihosha> Why the South? You still speak of governments...Why not speak of the People of the South...Why not an individual slave owner?
[23:00] * Monju-X nods to Ari. "as is your right."
[23:00] <Yaijinden> And the South would have choked on its agrarian economy.
[23:00] <Yaijinden> (cccccchoke!)
[23:00] * Kusanagi waves from outside, she's rather comfortably lounging in the grass.
[23:00] <Solarchos> Monju - Why? Why interfere at all in the first place?
[23:00] <Monju-X> Yes Yaijinden. Choices have consequences.
[23:00] <Yaijinden> yes they do ♫
[23:01] <Monju-X> But we would allow those choices to be made, for man to learn.
[23:01] <Yaijinden> Speculation is hilarity indeed.
[23:01] <Monju-X> Because, Solarchos, men here have become Sheep.
[23:01] <@Wolfwood> (( Would Shal be into designing a tattoo for me? ))
[23:01] <Yaijinden> Anyway, I've spent the past four, five hours in discussion of Serious Business. I'll see you all in Azeroth.
[23:01] * Yaijinden waves, and is out
[23:01] * Ari Leroux nods to Monju with a smile "I have nothing against you guys, I just would like my life to be as it is now.. I enjoy working for the Ministry... It may not be a glorious job, and it may not be a glorious life. But it's my life, and I like it. You understand, I'm sure."
[23:01] <Kusanagi> (( HELLS YES ))
[23:01] * Solarchos waves bye to Yai.
[23:01] <Eiry> Night, Yai.
[23:01] * Monju-X waves to Yaijinden
[23:02] <Kusanagi> (( man you give me the COOLEST PROJECTS ))
[23:02] <Monju-X> Yes, Ari :)
[23:02] <@Wolfwood> (( I try ))
[23:02] <@Raihosha> You speak of choice and consequence, and you seem to insist then that force cannot be used by the strong...
[23:02] <David O`Cain> Later, Yai.
[23:02] <@Wolfwood> (( I was thinking about getting a sailor moon tattoo.....but not any tattoo ))
[23:02] <// J_Daito //> We just seek to level the playing field.
[23:02] <Ari Leroux> Much like my former partner was displeased and chose a different path, right? ^_^
[23:02] <Kusanagi> (( Oooo~ ))
[23:02] <Solarchos> Monju - Sheep? How so?
[23:02] <Monju-X> ^
[23:02] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( Usagi flipping the bird? ))
[23:03] <Monju-X> Do men do good because they are good or because they fear the weight of the law?
[23:03] <@Wolfwood> (( I want one of those old school World War 2 pinup girls clutching a bomb like they use to put on the B-52's ))
[23:03] <Eiry> (( ....will you still want a SM tatoo when you're 80? ))
[23:03] <@Raihosha> Level the field? By banning association by more than 2 people?
[23:03] <Monju-X> Are they artificially moral.
[23:03] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( he'll have it small and somewhere NOBODY will ever see >_> ))
[23:03] <Monju-X> you exaggerate, Raihosha.
[23:03] <@Wolfwood> (( Will I still want a Sgt. Pepper drum when i'm 60? Prolly not, but who cares. ))
[23:04] <@Wolfwood> (( I'll have it on my calf ))
[23:04] <Kusanagi> (( sweet~ send me some form of message with the details! PM, RAD order, whatever XD ))
[23:04] <Monju-X> Level the feild by wiping away the 10% of the elite who manpulate 90% of the innocent.
[23:04] <@Raihosha> The weight of the law is the codified weight of a society, you either break down the field to individuals or you have to be hypocritical somewhere.
[23:04] <Solarchos> Monju - Can't it be a bit of both? I mean, there is no action without consequence. Laws are relative and arbitrary but everyone understands the weight of consequences and retaliation.
[23:04] <@Wolfwood> (( oooh i'm a weeaboo, f[BLEEP]k them. I don't care if people mock it ))
[23:05] <@Wolfwood> (( okee ))
[23:05] <Sylvie> Are you sure 10% of the 'elite' is enough?
[23:05] <Monju-X> It's enough of a start.
[23:05] <David O`Cain> (( Awesome concept, Wolf. ))
[23:05] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( see, that's why if I ever get the guts or desire for a tattoo, I'll get it where a t-shirt sleeve will cover it up and of something that I'll *always* like: a Maltese Cross, the 'symbol' of firefighters everywhere ))
[23:05] <Kusanagi> give the people a chance and they can handle the rest on their own~
[23:05] <Monju-X> Look at America. So military powerful that even if its people became disaffected they would be unable to rebel as they did in 1776.
[23:06] * Kusanagi has a long piece of grass between her teeth
[23:06] <@Raihosha> They do, it's called a government.
[23:06] <Solarchos> Monju - Are you certain that by doing that you wouldn't yourselves become that which you seek to eliminate?
[23:06] <Monju-X> that imbalance is far too severe.
[23:06] <Kusanagi> this is a... reset~
[23:06] <Monju-X> How much more reasonable would the government be if they were no longer able to hide beingd their weapons?
[23:06] <Kusanagi> the idea of the people's government is gone
[23:06] <@Raihosha> And what about everyone who LIKES the status quo?
[23:06] <@Wolfwood> (( I got an irish cross and a sgt. pepper drum ))
[23:07] <Kusanagi> things need to be overthrown and start over.
[23:07] <Monju-X> If they had to look their constituents in the face?
[23:07] <Solarchos> Monju - And as for America, they can. It's called freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of protest. And if they don't like their elected officials they can vote them out of office.
[23:07] <Monju-X> Well they can try to stop us :)
[23:07] * Ari Leroux goes outside to sit in the grass and visit with Kusanagi
[23:07] <Sylvie> Hey, and it's time to get going.
[23:07] <Monju-X> hahah Solarchos.
[23:07] *** Sylvie has quit IRC
[23:07] <@Wolfwood> (( i'm getting a Ralph Stedman bat with the date Hunter S. Thompson died. ))
[23:07] <Monju-X> With the millions the incumbents spend?
[23:07] <Monju-X> the media manipulated?
[23:07] <Monju-X> no.
[23:08] <Ari Leroux> Freedom of the press? Freedom of speech? Freedom of protest?
[23:08] <Monju-X> that choice has been largely removed.
[23:08] <@Raihosha> And what happens if another 10% takes over? Will you stop them as well?
[23:08] <Monju-X> no.
[23:08] <Solarchos> Monju - Well, it's THEIR government. If they CHOOSE to do nothing to remove such incompetants, that's THEIR fault. It's their government, it's their society, it's their responsibility to participate.
[23:08] <Ari Leroux> What're they? Do you really think that exists anymore really?
[23:08] <Ari Leroux> THINK ABOUT IT
[23:08] <Monju-X> We teach the lesson once.
[23:08] <Monju-X> Solarchos, how can they stop it.
[23:09] <Monju-X> with the cwidespread corrpution the people are not heard
[23:09] <Monju-X> We will simply open the door for humanity.
[23:09] <David O`Cain> I'm sorry, folks. As much as I wanna stick around, I gotta get going. Catch y'all later.
[23:09] <Monju-X> you have seen the power we grant.
[23:09] *** David O`Cain [JRPMoonSoldier@MKArmyRanger.mil] has quit IRC (Good night, folks.)
[23:09] <@Raihosha> Just as they come up with their own answers to the problem, you step in and want to "teach a lesson".
[23:09] <Solarchos> Monju - Simple, by getting up, shutting up, and just doing it. It's a representative government. It succeeds or fails due to their participation.
[23:10] <Monju-X> What answers?
[23:10] <Monju-X> But the governemnt will NOT fail.
[23:10] <@Raihosha> They are at a delicate time and you want to use a sledge.
[23:10] <@Wolfwood> (( let me think about how I want to do this for a few days. I may get ither Rei or Ami ))
[23:10] <Kusanagi> (( cool :D ))
[23:10] <Monju-X> it relies on the farse of choice ot grow stronger every day.
[23:10] <Kusanagi> (( no rush! ))
[23:10] <Monju-X> there are no answers here.
[23:10] <@Raihosha> The government created it's own downfall, it's called the Internet.
[23:10] <@Wolfwood> (( Fact: Ami was my favorite senshi 'till I saw the Saturn episodes ))
[23:11] <Kusanagi> (( lol Makoto all the way ))
[23:11] <Solarchos> Monju - If you have to punish someone, why not punish the people who choose to do nothing except stand by and whine about entitlements?
[23:11] <Monju-X> And now Internet Service Providers like AT&T will ban anyone who disagrees with them.
[23:11] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( /me scribbles a note down, teh Wolfwood like chicks with short hair XD ))
[23:11] <Monju-X> And they spy FOR the powers tha be.
[23:11] <Ari Leroux> (( I never really liked any of the Inner senshi XD ))
[23:11] <Ari Leroux> (( Except Mars ))
[23:12] * Solarchos agrees with Raihosha. Ideas are spreading, as is the truth.
[23:12] <Monju-X> Solarchos, those people will have to stand on their own.
[23:12] <Ari Leroux> (( Then when I saw Saturn I was like Mars & Saturn ROCK ))
[23:12] <@Wolfwood> (( Fact: Brad is a huge closet Sailor Senshi fan, and a HUGE sailor Jupiter fan. ))
[23:12] * Eiry is mostly listening and trying to keep up wth the conversation
[23:12] <Monju-X> Telecoms are being consolidated at a freihtening rate.
[23:12] <@Wolfwood> (( Hey chicks with short hair are hot. ))
[23:12] <Kusanagi> (( I figured the Jupiter bit actually XD ))
[23:12] <Solarchos> Although, I personally wouldn't mind seeing Donald Rumsfeld getting publically groin-stomped on national television.
[23:12] <Monju-X> The internet will not be able to route around ti forever.
[23:12] <@Raihosha> Yep. And spying on the Internet does what for someone who actually wants to hide?
[23:13] <Ari Leroux> (( That includes me! Lol! XD J/K ))
[23:13] <@Wolfwood> (( heh ))
[23:13] * Monju-X just shakes his head.
[23:13] <Ari Leroux> (( I'm insane ))
[23:13] <@Wolfwood> (( indeed you are ))
[23:13] <Monju-X> We have a clash of perspectives here.
[23:13] <Kusanagi> Monjuu-sama~~
[23:13] <Ari Leroux> (( I loooove college~ ))
[23:13] <Kusanagi> forget them, they're thick.
[23:13] * Monju-X looks at his dear Lion
[23:13] <Eiry> (( aren't most us here? ))
[23:13] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( yay college! ))
[23:13] <Ari Leroux> (( I only had one b[BLEEP]chfight so far with another girl in my dorm ))
[23:13] <@Raihosha> Maybe, maybe not, And telecoms will have more than a little trouble.
[23:13] <Monju-X> no... they honestly believe.
[23:13] <Solarchos> Hmph.
[23:14] <Monju-X> and that... is the tragedy.
[23:14] <Solarchos> Anyway, I need to leave now. Good night, folks.
[23:14] <Ari Leroux> (( But I swear she was drunk >< ))
[23:14] * Monju-X bows to you all.
[23:14] <Kusanagi> then forget about pushing them.
[23:14] <Kusanagi> We have our own stuff to do~
[23:14] <Monju-X> Goodnight, I must be going as well
[23:14] * Kusanagi tugs at a few blades of grass.
[23:14] <@Wolfwood> (( and no, the fanboy thing will not be a repeat of the hotaru mess ))
[23:14] <Hellfire Apprentice> (( a good 15% of my friends can be described as that a lot XD ))
[23:14] * Monju-X hugs Kusanagi and heads away "indeed we do~"

[12:15] <SylvieM.> Well my mother is Japanese and my father is English, he's a Baron. I grew up here in Japan and then went to school in England when I was a teenager. So I've spent a lot of time in both countries.
[12:16] <SylvieM.> Sometimes it's like having two different lives; my mother is rather traditional.
[12:21] <@Wolfwood> I don't talk to my mother.
[12:22] <@Wolfwood> (( damnit ))
[12:22] <@Wolfwood> She has.......religous veiws that we don't agree on
[12:24] <@Wolfwood> But anyway, continue.
[12:24] <SylvieM.> I'm sorry to hear that. We used to fight a lot, but that changed when I got older.
[12:25] <SylvieM.> She was a geisha, you know, when she was young.
[12:25] <@Wolfwood> Thats reallly cool.
[12:25] <@Wolfwood> Old world Japanese stuff like that facinates me.
[12:27] <@Wolfwood> Allways wanted to be a samurai when I was a kid.

[16:09] * @Furu huddles in the corner
[16:10] <SylvieM.> Hey, don't be so moody :(
[16:10] <@Furu> :<
[16:11] * @Raihosha gives Furu noogies!
[16:11] <@Raihosha> Cheer up, twas merely in jest!
[16:13] * SylvieM. goes back to the couch and sits there
[16:14] <@Furu> Agh noogies!
[16:14] <@Furu> No fair!
[16:15] <SylvieM.> Why not? You poke other people often enough.
[16:15] <@Furu> I know!
[16:15] <@Furu> I kid,.
[16:15] * @Furu leaps through the air onto the back of a sofa and perches :D
[16:17] <@Raihosha> Do you want some birdseed?
[16:18] <@Furu> Ca-caw!
[16:19] * @Raihosha gives Furu birdseed.
[16:19] * @Raihosha is away: back later guys.
[16:22] * @Furu eats delicious seed.
[16:23] <@Furu> Mm. Not bad.
[16:23] <SylvieM.> You know birds eat rocks to digest seeds, right?
[16:24] * SylvieM. gives Furu some pebbles, too.
[16:25] <@Furu> ...D:
[16:25] <@Furu> I'm not a bird!
[16:26] <Yaijinden> Or not nearly enough to have a gizzard.
[16:26] <Yaijinden> Though we aren't for sure. Do you have a gizzard?
[16:27] * SylvieM. gets a message on her keitai.
[16:28] <@Furu> No.
[16:28] <@Furu> Gizzards are delicious though.
[16:28] <SylvieM.> Time to go, I guess.
[16:29] <SylvieM.> See you guys later~
[16:29] *** SylvieM. [salvia.m.hammond@jubaan.minato-ku.tokyo.ac.jp] has quit IRC (Because life without fun is just....boring.)
[16:30] * @Furu waves!
[16:30] <@Furu> You and me now, Yai.
[16:31] <Yaijinden> So it is.
[16:31] * Yaijinden assumes an iai stance, one hand on the hilt of his ancestral sword
[16:31] <Yaijinden> We finish this. Here. Now.
[16:35] <@Furu> Wait what
[16:35] <@Furu> No!
[16:35] *** Solarchos has joined #suburbansenshi2
[16:35] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Solarchos
[16:36] <Solarchos> Yai - Planning on eliminating some of the opposition?
[16:37] *** Ari Leroux [Leroux@meifuu.co.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[16:37] <@spiritflame> Irasshai Ari Leroux
[16:37] <Ari Leroux> What a cruel thing to say!
[16:38] <@Furu> Oppowhat?!
[16:38] <Solarchos> Ari - If I wanted to be cruel, I'd be asking Sakura-April to do it instead.
[16:38] <Ari Leroux> Then why don't you?
[16:38] <Ari Leroux> Furu's our friend, steel fist or not.
[16:38] * Solarchos tosses an orange in the air towards Yaijinden.
[16:39] <Ari Leroux> You noticed how last night I got along perfectly fine witht he Steel Fist, while you however did not view them as friendly rivals. You view them as enemies to be defeated.
[16:39] <Ari Leroux> I see them differently
[16:40] <Ari Leroux> I see them as rivals, off the battlefield we can be friends, but not on the battlefield.
[16:40] <Ari Leroux> There's a difference.
[16:40] <Solarchos> Ari...I think it would be dangerous to consider them friendly. It might cause you to lower your guard around them.
[16:41] <Solarchos> They are possessing and dominating people I like ( well...some of them I like ). How exactly should I feel?
[16:42] * @Furu scratches his forehead
[16:44] <Ari Leroux> They're not posessing nor dominating.
[16:44] * Solarchos peels the orange on his own and offers half to whoever wants it.
[16:44] * Ari Leroux notices the confused Furu and hugs him!
[16:44] <Solarchos> Then how come they can't remember anything afterwards, Ari?
[16:44] <Ari Leroux> Ignore the mean old Space Marine!
[16:44] <Ari Leroux> Easily.
[16:45] <Ari Leroux> It's kinda like when you can't remember something you did when you were drunk.
[16:45] <Ari Leroux> That or they suppress their own memories
[16:46] <Solarchos> Ari...blackouts only happen when someone has a dangerously high blood-alcohol content. As for suppressing their memories I'd really love to know why.
[16:47] <Ari Leroux> Who knows~
[16:47] <Ari Leroux> I don't care
[16:48] * Solarchos shrugs. "Whatever."
[16:48] <Yaijinden> Do you remember your dreams with perfect accuracy?
[16:49] <Solarchos> Yai - Sometimes, yes.
[16:49] <Yaijinden> How many?
[16:49] <Yaijinden> A percentage.
[16:49] <Yaijinden> Your best guess.
[16:50] <Solarchos> I'd have to say maybe...20 - 25% of the time. Granted, my dreams are sometimes so real it's hard to tell the difference.
[16:50] <Yaijinden> How many of them are lucid dreams?
[16:51] <Solarchos> Lucid dreams? As in ones I can actively control?
[16:52] <Yaijinden> Ones where you are continually conscious that you are dreaming.
[16:52] <Yaijinden> During the dream itself.
[16:52] <Solarchos> Maybe...10%. But whenever I start trying to actively control one it starts reactivating my brain and I begin to progressively wake up.
[16:53] * @Furu is distracted by other things.
[16:54] <Yaijinden> The analogy I present to you, then, is this: those whose wills are not their own are sleeping. When they dream, the Steel Fist emerges.
[16:54] * Ari Leroux is still hugging Furu
[16:54] <Solarchos> And ones in which I instinctively know I'm dreaming, but can't really control...I'd say an additional 10%.
[16:54] <Yaijinden> If I were, for example, to be able to isolate Furu from the rest of the world, I might be able to bring him to awareness of his nature as Aizen-Myuu.
[16:55] <Yaijinden> As you can see, he's not _really_ awake. Any casual mention of the material at hand drives his attention back away.
[16:56] <Yaijinden> Observe:
[16:56] <Yaijinden> Furu would you like a pamphlet?
[16:56] <Solarchos> I still think we need to find out how to seperate the Fisters from their hosts and isolate them somehow.

[16:57] <Ari Leroux> Hi! :D
[16:57] <@Indigo> Rogues do it from behind, Priests do it missionary, Steel Fisters do it with their FIST!"
[16:57] * Ari Leroux bows to Indigo to show respect
[16:57] <@Indigo> Hi Ari
[16:58] <Solarchos> Hmmm
[16:58] * @rei-bot looks at Solarchos and what Indigo-chan just said.
[16:58] * @Indigo draws a cigarette from her pack, getting out her lighter.
[16:58] <@rei-bot> Solarchos.
[16:58] <@rei-bot> From now on...

[16:59] * Ari Leroux offers Indigo a cookie :D
[16:59] <Ari Leroux> ^_^
[16:59] <@Indigo> I'm good.
[16:59] <Solarchos> Awww, she's upset now. Wonderful.
[16:59] * @Indigo lights the cigarette, it smells like vanilla.
[16:59] <Ari Leroux> Would you like anything to drink?
[16:59] <@Indigo> Well Sol
[16:59] <@Indigo> you are technically insulting her
[16:59] * @Indigo waves a hand to Ari, is fine.
[16:59] <@Furu> ...sorry I zoned out there
[16:59] <@Furu> What did I miss?
[16:59] <@Furu> Anything?
[16:59] <@Furu> No?
[16:59] <@Indigo> When you refer to people with a sexual term
[16:59] <@Furu> Good.
[17:00] * @Furu goes about his business
[17:00] <@Indigo> like "Fisters"
[17:00] *** Actually it's a reference to [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq1_6D9QS9Y[/url] what prime tells Kup in this vid
[17:00] <@Indigo> It's derogatory.
[17:00] <Ari Leroux> Furu~
[17:00] <Solarchos> Indigo - That's a slang term. Hardly meant to be derogatory.
[17:00] *** Actually it's a reference to what prime tells Kup in this vid
[17:00] <Ari Leroux> Would you like anything to drink or eat? :D
[17:01] *** and "fisting" means... uhh...
[17:01] <Solarchos> Indigo - And since when does rei-bot actually give a damn about what I think anyway?

[17:01] * Solarchos thwaps the Voice.
[17:01] * Ari Leroux kicks Solarchos
[17:01] <@Indigo> Uhm.
[17:01] <Ari Leroux> You're a real idiot!
[17:01] <@Furu> Is Solar being an anti-social gun nut again
[17:02] <Solarchos> If I *wanted* to be insulting, trust me...I'd come up with something more derogatory than that.
[17:02] <@Indigo> I don't know much about her.
[17:02] <@Furu> Also Solar stop talking about fisting D:
[17:02] <@Indigo> I know she has Sakura.
[17:02] <Ari Leroux> You see, I can at least get along with the Steel Fist when they're in here.
[17:02] * Solarchos thought rei.bot secured Sakura's release?
[17:02] <@S.X. Aino> hot anymore.
[17:02] * Ari Leroux offers to make Furu some tea :D
[17:02] <Ari Leroux> Sakura!

[17:04] <Ari Leroux> EEK!
[17:04] <@S.X. Aino> Actually I ate too much, so no thanks :D
[17:04] * Ari Leroux didn't expect Tatsumi to show up
[17:04] <Ari Leroux> DAMMIT
[17:04] * Tatsumi rolls his eyes at his "comerad's" reaction
[17:04] <Ari Leroux> Don't scare me like that ><
[17:04] <Tatsumi> You're needed at the Summons department.
[17:05] <@Furu> Did you bring candy for all of us
[17:05] <Ari Leroux> Dammit, what now?
[17:05] <Tatsumi> You have a job.
[17:05] <@S.X. Aino> I would have but I got teleported here pretty fast.
[17:05] <Ari Leroux> I know that

[17:06] <Tatsumi> Also
[17:06] <Ari Leroux> Or sprite
[17:06] <Tatsumi> Bring sweets.
[17:06] <@Furu> Wait, that needs a DOCTOR trip?!
[17:06] <@S.X. Aino> Ari Lerouuuuuxxx
[17:06] <@Furu> How much did you eat woman!
[17:06] * Solarchos offers Sakura some Pepto-Bismol.
[17:06] * Ari Leroux hugs Sakura!
[17:06] <@S.X. Aino> Furu I ate twice my bodyweight in sweets
[17:06] <@Furu> why
[17:06] <Yaijinden> That's too many.
[17:06] <@S.X. Aino> @_@
[17:07] <@Furu> You are insane. It is official
[17:07] <Yaijinden> That's who you'll be from now on. Bodyweight!
[17:07] <@S.X. Aino> I like candy
[17:07] * Ari Leroux waves "The water is on the stove! And Sakura, you need to really brush your teeth, you could get cavities from all that sugar!
[17:07] <Solarchos> Sakura - Maybe you should schedule a trip to your dentist instead?
[17:07] <@Furu> So do we all, but, you know, moderation
[17:07] <@S.X. Aino> I dunno about that prime
[17:07] <Ari Leroux> I'm going, Tatsumi! :D
[17:07] <Yaijinden> And that's who you'll be from now on. Moderation!

[17:07] <Yaijinden> But nothing, Bodyweight!
[17:08] * @S.X. Aino crawls off to her TARDIS to stomach pump
[17:08] * Meruhesae laughs XD
[17:08] * Solarchos snickes at Sakura's new nickname. "Nice!"
[17:08] <Yaijinden> And I've had enough of your right hand Moderation.
[17:08] <Yaijinden> Shape up or it'll be the Energon mines of Omnicron Rumicron for you!
[17:09] <Meruhesae> Poor Ari~
[17:09] <Yaijinden> (we have energon mines at omnicron rumicron right)
[17:09] <@Furu> Poor Sakura-san.
[17:09] <Meruhesae> She's gotta work with a slavedriver partner!
[17:09] <Solarchos> Get better soon, Sakura. rei.bot and the rest of us could really use your help.
[17:10] <Solarchos> Meru - Eh, I guess she'll survive.
[17:10] <Meruhesae> Yeah, because she shows respect
[17:10] <Meruhesae> Even to her rivals she still shows respect
[17:10] <Meruhesae> She may not like Tatsumi, but she listens to him, and she does her job.
[17:11] <Meruhesae> She does it while respecting her elders and those who have earned her respect
[17:12] <Meruhesae> And she is polite, even to those who haven't shown the same to her
[17:12] <Yaijinden> ♫
[17:13] <Solarchos> Meru - Well...I guess that's good for her.
[17:13] <Meruhesae> You notice how well she got on last night with Kusanagi and Monju? That's because she respects that they are still kind, even though we aren't always kind in return.
[17:13] <Meruhesae> Yai got along fine with rei-bot, but that's because he respected her opinion while they discussed
[17:13] <Meruhesae> You should really try to do the same
[17:14] <Meruhesae> Respect others' opinions, you'll be a better man for it. :D
[17:14] <Meruhesae> That's all the wisdom I have for you today! Come back tomorrow with money! :D
[17:15] <Meruhesae> YaiiiiI~

[20:20] <DUELMAN> THE DUELMAN THINKS HE IS JUST LIKE THE GAY WHO MARRIED THE STELLA GOT HER GROOVE BACK CHICK

[17:16] <Solarchos> Meru - Well, Yai doesn't have anything against rei.bot. Hell, I like rei.bot. She's helped me on a number of occasions. At least as much as she can.
[17:17] <Meruhesae> Incorrect. I said rei-bot.
[17:17] <Meruhesae> Not rei.bot'
[17:17] * @Furu pokes Maru.

[17:22] <Meruhesae> Kawaii~
[17:22] * Solarchos bursts out laughing at "Judge Fudge".
[17:23] <Solarchos> You know...I can just see George as a judge. That would be cool as hell.
[17:23] <Meruhesae> OBJECTION! FURU'S LAWYER IS A CUDDLY POLAR BEAR PLUSHIE
[17:23] <Solarchos> Hmmm...Judge George. Kinda catchy.
[17:23] <Meruhesae> George is a Panda
[17:23] <Meruhesae> XD
[17:23] <@Furu> ...Yai.
[17:23] <@Furu> Did you just make what reference I thought you just made
[17:23] <Solarchos> Objection to panda-judges...OVERRULED!!
[17:23] <Yaijinden> You might.
[17:24] <Yaijinden> Or I might've.
[17:24] * @Furu hugs Yai
[17:24] * Yaijinden hugs ♡
[17:26] <@Furu> :3
[17:27] <Yaijinden> I however would rule in your flavor.
[17:28] <Meruhesae> Shun the non believer~
[17:28] <Meruhesae> Shhhhhuuuuuuunnnn~
[17:28] * starcat pops up behind the sofa and takes pictures
[17:28] <starcat> Furu-chan, no wonder you keep going back to being single. :O
[17:29] <Yaijinden> QUICK TIE HER DOWN
[17:29] <starcat> Eh? Tie who down?
[17:29] <Yaijinden> YOU
[17:29] <Yaijinden> BEFORE YOU GET AWAY
[17:29] * Yaijinden flails wildly
[17:29] <Solarchos> And a starcat appears!
[17:30] * Solarchos tosses a net.
[17:30] <starcat> D:
[17:30] <starcat> what
[17:30] <@Furu> What?!
[17:30] <Yaijinden> Here only so fleetingly!
[17:30] <starcat> Solarchos why do you have a net?
[17:30] <Yaijinden> Pop in pop out we miss you!
[17:30] <@Furu> No one is tying anyone done!
[17:30] <starcat> <_<;
[17:31] <starcat> ._.;
[17:31] <@Furu> IT'S A TRAP THEY'VE GOT NETS
[17:31] <starcat> Fine, fine, but not too long, okay?
[17:31] <Yaijinden> WARRANTY VOID UNTIL SEAL IS BROKEN
[17:31] <starcat> I's gots peoples waitingks.
[17:31] * @Furu gives star-chan a friendly hug!
[17:31] <Yaijinden> Hee.
[17:31] <Yaijinden> Hope you've been well?
[17:31] <Yaijinden> No new diseases, all your limbs intact...
[17:32] <starcat> Been feeling a bit weird lately but nothing serious.
[17:32] <starcat> My limbs are, indeed, intact.
[17:32] <Meruhesae> Hi Star ^_^
[17:32] <@Furu> So you're not a leper!
[17:33] <Solarchos> Yai - Running her through customs or just preparing to tag her and return her to the wild?
[17:33] * starcat pats Furu's head and then moves away in case he tries to net her D:
[17:33] <starcat> No, I'm not a leper!
[17:33] <Yaijinden> Not yet you aren't. Just avoid Africa and you should be fine tho.
[17:33] * @Furu has no nets
[17:34] <starcat> I will remember that.
[17:34] <Yaijinden> In fact avoiding Africa in general is a good thing for your health. Keeps you out of things like localized smallpox outbreaks, leprosy, ebola, sleeping sickness, and all the crazy s[BLEEP]t they have in there.
[17:34] * Solarchos retrieves his net, folds it up, and tucks it back into his wallet.
[17:34] <starcat> ...
[17:34] <starcat> . . .
[17:34] <starcat> Some guys keep condoms in their wallets. Solarchos keeps a net.
[17:34] <starcat> Why does that disturb me so much? o_o
[17:35] <Solarchos> I keep many things in my wallet. ^_^
[17:35] <@Furu> ^__~
[17:35] * Solarchos sighs happily. *Now* things are starting to feel normal...for the time being.
[17:35] <starcat> Your wallet is like Yai's pants.
[17:35] <starcat> Only Yai's pants have Yai in them.
[17:35] <Yaijinden> Except with fewer migrant workers.
[17:36] <@Furu> Normal is relative!
[17:36] <@Furu> Maybe Solar's wallet has Yai in it.
[17:36] <@Furu> Maybe the entire universe is actually inside Solar's wallet.
[17:36] <Yaijinden> So what would a twenty be?
[17:37] <starcat> About 2300 yen.
[17:37] * @Furu rimshots
[17:37] <Solarchos> Furu - I *wish* my wallet could be so cool as to be able to hold the entire universe.
[17:37] <LOVELYgirl> [16:56] <Solarchos> I still think we need to find out how to seperate the Fisters from their hosts and isolate them somehow.
[17:38] <Meruhesae> (( Youtube has given me the perfect skit idea for Otakon XD ))
[17:38] <LOVELYgirl> I think Rachel did that once.
[17:38] <Solarchos> Miara - Oh?
[17:38] <starcat> Solarchos why do you hate them :(
[17:38] <starcat> is it because your mother abused you as a child :(
[17:39] <Yaijinden> It's because I abused his mother as a child.
[17:39] <Solarchos> Miara - Also, please refer to them as the Steel Fist from now on. rei-bot's apparently kinda sensitive about that.
[17:39] <LOVELYgirl> It may not work the same way with them, though.
[17:39] <Solarchos> starcat - Hmmm? Hate who?
[17:39] <LOVELYgirl> (( HI starcat ))
[17:39] <starcat> Anyone :(
[17:39] <starcat> (( Hi~ ))
[17:39] <starcat> (( Surprise Visit! ))
[17:40] <LOVELYgirl> (( /me hugs starcat! ))
[17:40] <starcat> (( Thank or blame Yai, I was just going to pop in, make a few comments, and be off. ))
[17:40] <starcat> (( Yay hugs! *hugs back* ))
[17:40] <@Furu> rei.bot's sensitive about Fisters what? I'm so confused
[17:40] * LOVELYgirl pats Furu on the head. "Don't worry yourself about it."
[17:40] <Yaijinden> Hey Furu look a shiny ball of crumpled aluminum foil!
[17:40] <Solarchos> starcat - And no, my mother never abused me. There's just a...situation of sorts slowly building here.
[17:40] <starcat> To fist.
[17:41] <starcat> ...your mommy abandoned you and that's why you have to react so violently :(
[17:41] <starcat> it's a cry for love :(
[17:41] <starcat> wait shiny what =o
[17:41] <@Furu> FOIL?!
[17:41] * Yaijinden bats a ball of foil Furu's way
[17:42] * starcat intercepts it <3
[17:42] <LOVELYgirl> Solar are you interested in that or not?
[17:42] <@Furu> :O
[17:42] <@Furu> :<
[17:42] <@Furu> I want foil
[17:43] <Solarchos> Miara - In how Rachel did it before? Yes, very much so.
[17:43] <starcat> my foil!
[17:43] <LOVELYgirl> Hold on a bit then.
[17:43] * @Furu pouts.
[17:43] * LOVELYgirl gets her time key out and concentrates on it for a while.
[17:44] * Solarchos sits down near Miara and pays close attention.
[17:44] <starcat> Aww...
[17:44] * starcat gives Furu the foil
[17:44] <Yaijinden> Well you should go for it yourself then.
[17:45] * @Furu plays happily
[17:45] <@Furu> Thanks!
[17:45] * LOVELYgirl puts her key away.
[17:45] * Solarchos rolls a polished silver dollar across the floor near Furu.
[17:45] <LOVELYgirl> And now we wait.
[17:45] <starcat> You're welcome. :D
[17:45] <LOVELYgirl> Do you have to keep doing that to them?
[17:46] <Yaijinden> Strictly speaking, no-- they'll do it to themselves if we didn't give them a reason to.

[17:46] <Solarchos> Miara - Who me? That's the first time I've done that to Furu at all.
[17:46] <LOVELYgirl> You did it last time I was here to someone.
[17:46] <Eiry> Hello.
[17:46] <Solarchos> Miara - Besides, he can snatch it, run out, and use it to buy himself some hot ramen.
[17:46] <LOVELYgirl> Hey.
[17:46] * Yaijinden waves
[17:47] <starcat> :<
[17:47] <starcat> solarchos, that's insulting.
[17:47] <Solarchos> Miara - Just so you know, Judai has this weird fascination with shiny objects.
[17:47] <starcat> Distracted people are no worse than you single-minded people.
[17:47] <LOVELYgirl> There you are. You might want to go elsewhere for a while unless you want to know the future.
[17:47] <Eiry> Oh. I guess I'll come back later then >_>
[17:48] * Eiry is away: elsewhere
[17:48] <Solarchos> starcat - What? Furu's welcome to keep that silver dollar if he wants.
[17:48] * Solarchos waves bye to Eiry.
[17:48] * starcat is listening to: Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For?.mp3 [192 kbps]
[17:49] <starcat> Yeah, but giving him a dollar is one thing, rolling it across the floor so he chases it is another. :<
[17:49] * Solarchos waits for Miara to talk about what she found out.
[17:49] * @Furu makes star-chan a tin-foil hat!
[17:49] <LOVELYgirl> Oh, I just sent a message. Be patient. It's hard to time things exactly.
[17:49] <starcat> :O Tinfoil hat!!
[17:50] <Solarchos> Miara - A message to the future? Ah. I didn't know you could do that.
[17:50] <LOVELYgirl> It _IS_ a time key.
[17:50] <@Furu> :3
[17:50] <LOVELYgirl> Yay! Tin foil Hat!
[17:50] <starcat> Can I wear it now?
[17:50] <@Furu> Sure!
[17:51] <LOVELYgirl> (( gurren-lagann OST get! ))
[17:51] <Solarchos> (( God, I think I dreamed about the most recent Gurren-lagann episodes we saw a couple nights ago. XD ))
[17:51] * starcat wears it! :D
[17:52] <LOVELYgirl> (( lol at solar. ))
[17:52] <LOVELYgirl> You look all cute, starkitty-san!
[17:52] <@Furu> She does!
[17:52] <Solarchos> (( Gurren-lagann has infested my BRAAAAIIIIINNN!!! ))
[17:53] * Solarchos thinks someone should compile a compendium of Kamina's most insightful quotations.
[17:54] <starcat> Thank yooou~! ^_^
[17:54] <Solarchos> starcat - That hat does seem to have a slimming effect on you.
[17:54] <starcat> ...
[17:55] <Yaijinden> (hint, that was not one of kamina's most insightful quotations)
[17:55] <Solarchos> starcat - I mean that as a complement.
[17:55] <starcat> ...
[17:56] <starcat> Yeaaaaah, thanks for the hat, but I think it's time I got going.
[17:56] <Solarchos> Eh...nevermind. I'd better shut the hell up while I'm ahead.
[17:56] <starcat> Nice to see you all again. :)
[17:56] * starcat waves and grooves on out

[17:59] * @Furu is away 
[17:59] <LOVELYgirl> (( lag test ))
[18:00] <Solarchos> (( No lag here to my knowledge. ))

[18:03] * Yaijinden snags one of Kojin's leftover cookies, and is out
[18:03] <LOVELYgirl> Oh, cookies!
[18:04] <wolftouched> hey solar, miara what did you want?
[18:04] * Solarchos waves to WT.
[18:04] <LOVELYgirl> Solar has questions~
[18:05] <Solarchos> Oh, first-off do you mind if I refer to you as WT or would you rather be called something else?
[18:05] * wolftouched looks at solar.
[18:05] <wolftouched> rachel is fine.
[18:06] <Solarchos> Okay, Rachel. Miara mentioned that you might know of a way to seperate a possessing entity from their host-victim. It sounds like you've faced something similar before.
[18:07] <wolftouched> ....................................
[18:07] <wolftouched> i may.
[18:08] <wolftouched> what do you need that kind of information for?
[18:08] <Solarchos> Rachel - The Steel Fist. They appear to operate and manifest through a form of possession and domination.

[18:09] * Solarchos waves to Souldier.
[18:09] <wolftouched> i don't know any Steel Fist, are they new?
[18:09] * Souldier walks in quietly, he returns Solar's wave with a nod.
[18:10] <LOVELYgirl> Hello, Guyver!
[18:11] * Souldier offers her a tired smile. "Hey there"
[18:11] * wolftouched waves absently to Guyver
[18:11] <Souldier> Evenin' Rachel.
[18:11] <Solarchos> Rachel - Yes, they're a recent development of sorts. They have an agenda that involves essentially getting rid of rei.bot in some way. Whatever their motives, the outcome of what they have planned may or may not be beneficial to everyone here. Personally, I sense than the outcome of their success will the latter of the two.
[18:12] * Souldier starts taking off his sharp looking armor and slumps down on the sofa
[18:12] <Solarchos> Souldier - That a new suit you have on?
[18:13] <Souldier> Somewhat.
[18:13] <wolftouched> so something big and world threatening again?
[18:13] <Souldier> Made off a big ass blue colored Crab
[18:14] <Solarchos> Souldier - So...you got into a Crab Battle?
[18:14] <wolftouched> miara, you know what's going on?
[18:14] <Solarchos> Rachel - Yup. rei.bot's in trouble this time, and she needs our help.
[18:14] <LOVELYgirl> Yes~
[18:15] <wolftouched> excuse us a minute, guys
[18:15] * Solarchos nods to Rachel. "Go ahead."
[18:16] <Souldier> Solar- ??? Just hunting down this thing that was being a bit too violent, showing a new guy the ropes while I was at it. Normally I'd take a gunlance and Tower shield to this thing, but he's a Tachi fan boy so he wanted me to show him how to take the thing on with it...it's rather tiring... especially when you fight in a poisonous swamp.
[18:16] <Solarchos> Souldier - Heh. I don't suppose the crab was edible?
[18:16] * wolftouched and miara are silent for a few minutes as full information is exchanged.
[18:17] <Souldier> Probably... but I'm not eating from its pincer... those things were sharp... and it nicked up my Tachi.
[18:18] <Souldier> Then again, Crab is tasty, so some big ba[BLEEP]rd like that oughta be
[18:18] <Solarchos> Souldier - Yeah, but underneath the shell of those pincers should be plenty of meat. Boil that sucka up, dude!
[18:18] <wolftouched> sounds like you've got quite perdicament, solar
[18:18] <Solarchos> Rachel - That's an understatement.
[18:18] * LOVELYgirl shakes her head a bit to clear her mind
[18:19] <@rei-bot> [16:56] <Solarchos> I still think we need to find out how to seperate the Fisters from their hosts and isolate them somehow.
[18:19] <@rei-bot> Would you like to try?
[18:19] <Souldier> Top Left Solar. Shogun Cenatuar armor, for male Blade users
[18:20] <Solarchos> ~_~;
[18:20] <@rei-bot> Don't make that face, s[BLEEP]tpiece, I'm being erious.
[18:20] <@rei-bot> ^serious
[18:20] <@rei-bot> Do you want to try?
[18:20] <wolftouched> you must be rei-bot
[18:20] <Solarchos> Don't call me s[BLEEP]tpiece, please. I've already apologized.
[18:21] <@rei-bot> Very well :)
[18:21] * @rei-bot bows " I am"
[18:21] <@rei-bot> Solarchos, would you like tio try it.
[18:21] <Solarchos> rei-bot - Uhhh, I suppose.
[18:22] <@rei-bot> :/
[18:22] * wolftouched nods to rei-bot
[18:22] <@rei-bot> I find your lack of enthusiam distrubing, but very well.
[18:22] * @rei-bot is away: I will send one of the originals by.
[18:22] <wolftouched> oh, i was going to ask her something
[18:23] <@rei-bot> Ask :3
[18:23] * @rei-bot hasn't left just yet
[18:23] * Souldier starts polishing his armor, setting his Bone Katana aside
[18:23] * Kusanagi perches on the windowsill.
[18:23] <Kusanagi> S'up, rei-bot-dono~?
[18:24] <@rei-bot> The other side wants to play with you.
[18:24] <wolftouched> how were the Steel Fist people put into the hosts? specifically?
[18:24] <Kusanagi> Okay!
[18:24] <Solarchos> ~_~
[18:24] <Souldier> Ah.... cant wait to fight that one annoying Elder Dragon.... get a few Flame Sacs, some marrow from a few wyverns, remodify this thing, set it up with some fire, and we'll have us a worthwhile katana <3
[18:24] * Kusanagi puts her swords away
[18:24] <@rei-bot> The process varies
[18:25] * Kusanagi takes off her arm guards and tosses them aside.
[18:25] <Solarchos> Souldier - Nice.
[18:25] <@rei-bot> But it boils down to the release of the id.
[18:25] * Souldier looks gleefully distracted considering how tired he is.
[18:25] * Kusanagi takes off her circlet
[18:25] <wolftouched> the original ones, then.
[18:25] <@rei-bot> Nothing is *put in* so to speak.
[18:25] * Kusanagi tosses her wallet to the side.
[18:25] <@rei-bot> At least nothing which is not a catalyst and boild away.
[18:25] <Souldier> Solar- Not really
