Not really, no.

I'll survive, though.

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

... lemme know if ya can think of anything.

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

...

As a question... do you think it was fate or chance, that I ended up finding that scythe that caused the possession?

[handofaegis]

... Did something happen?

I think I'm lost.

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

Honestly?

We could debate fate and chance until we're blue in the face. I ascribe to chance, personally. But it's already done. Nothing will come of questioning why it happened just what to do with it now that it's happened.

[ogrewarrior]

Nothing very important.

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

... That's true.

It's just annoying, I suppose. But... At least it's getting investigated into, finally.

[handofaegis]

It looks important to me!

... Oh, wait, I get it. It's about that guy that looks exactly like Scythe that Kai mentioned before!

[ogrewarrior]

His name's Mamoru. It's... a long story as to how we got here.

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

Yeah, you don't strike me as a 'I enjoy being the center of all of this attention' guy. Hopefully this can get resolved with minimum stress on all of us.

[handofaegis]

So that's a yes? I'll take that as a yes.

Do you mind catching me up?

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

I think the "minimum" threshold was already passed.

... Who is that girl that's asking about this? Another of the Barians?

[ogrewarrior]

I don't mind at all.

But I've also figured out how to make synchro sudoku puzzles to make teenagers cry, so I have delivered the information to a third party to catch you up.

[handofaegis]

A third party? Who?

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

Right when this post was made? Could be worse. Could be public.

Yeah. That's Aegis. She's real sweet, real good natured. They're all really good people, just... Kinda not human.

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

I more meant in general, but that too.

I gathered on the "not human" part when possession and strange mechanical weapons became a factor, yes.

... I want to at least make it clear, I have nothing against the Barians. I'm just overwhelmed by the idea that my problem is connected to one of their own. And that I apparently look so much like that one, that they keep staring at me.

[hardcorebestcore]

Hello! I was told to 'tell story' and also to 'liven up the mood of thread this is getting really grim kid but don't tell anyone I told you that' and 'Maybe I shoulda just kept it to detective peeps I may 'ave made a 'uge mistake'

I had prepared story in song form but I could not figure out how to make music in background so will have to settle for boring text. Is this okay? Can add emojis and text colors!

[handofaegis]

Umm...

... okay?

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

Ah, I figured. Ya don't seem like you're weird it's just... We think in days and weeks and maybe years, but sometimes I feel like they might be thinking in decades and centuries...?

I also figure if anyone can help ya, maybe they can. Eventually. When this has all calmed down and you're back to... well.

Normal as ya can be in this town and this situation.

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

I had a perfectly normal life before this. It just involved excavation and research of objects that were possibly dangerous.

[hardcorebestcore]

O K A Y!

A long time ago, in a world that was once known a Domino there was a man who was a researcher and he was very good! Very nice. Definitely let teenage girls in on dangerous tests that could kill them.

༼☯﹏☯༽

And then! He was possessed by a Scythe and no one told me what he did while possessed so I will assume he donated money to people in need and adopted seventeen puppies. （๑♜д♜）

He became Mamoru who is grumpy and unwilling to let girls stare death in the face and laugh at it and is maybe also magic/super powerful psychic and the scythe was also your friend by the same name as what he was! ヽ( ε∀ε )ノ

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

... I'm really sorry man.

[handofaegis]

...

Is he not letting you do something?

Re: [Private Thread]

[thestudyof]

... It's fine. I'm in a better spot than I was after what happened.

... ... And Cardozo is still not allowed to take part in the test again, no matter how much she's begging for it.

Re: [Private Thread]

[ogrewarrior]

Good.

... Yeah, I'm gonna say she gets it from her mother or adoptive parents, 'cause I don't remember. I'M not that stubborn.

... She wants me to smuggle her to you.
