[and, as he's taken to doing occasionally, he sets a guiding hand on taka's shoulder along the way. he'll let it go if it doesn't seem like he wants the contact, but-- well.
at times like this, ishi leans toward the thought that he may need it.]
Would you like to discuss things further, or would a distraction be better?
[we're going to handwave travel time bc nobody has the effort for that, game room it is.]
We'll evaluate more quickly, choose a location, and decide on a plan from there. Beyond that-- there's something else I think I may look into, to see if we can't get a little extra assistance.
I've wondered if the gods can only allow their followers to use their abilities, or if they may be able to allow someone else to, if only temporarily...
It seems unlikely, considering we can find out whose ability was involved in these deaths, but it also seems worth confirming for certain. Even a single use of certain ones could do a lot of good.
No, I think that's a good idea. It's best not to make too many plans since we have no idea what next week is gonna look like. He might even be a host for all we know.
Should we try to gather some you haven't spoken with, then? I'm willing to bet that if I asked Luke, he would be able to help... and that might let you get some of it over with at one time.
[as opposed to spending all week finding people he hasn't talked with.]

[hello taka, have one exhausted sword, doing his best not to look or sound too much like it. he still sounds somewhat tired, though.]
We truly do get worse at this each time, don't we.
no subject
[ it's
definitely an understatement. ]
no subject
[a sigh, and-]
Though I'm uncertain that is something we can do much to change. So for now-
--where would you like to go?
[they can head someplace more comfortable than this.]
no subject
[ both of them are kind of painful. ]
Game room?

Especially when there's things like favors.

[losing 2 followers has to suck, and it's not like ishi dislikes the guy.]
But I think I may wait to see how the standings sit at the beginning of the week before I ask that in particular, even if we meet before then.

[most people, he assumes, would be in a Mood, and he's not insensitive.]
Mm, speaking of that, though. Do you have any you'll be able to call in, if it comes to it?
no subject
[ some are harder than others. ]

[they're both in this, of course he'll help if he can.]
no subject
[ the gods think he is too antisocial. ]

[ he is a little embarrassed by having to do this. ]
no subject
Provide me with a list of people you have spoken with, then, since I assume that will be the shorter one. We can go from there.
no subject
Ray, Sasuke, Senri, you, Madoka, Yu, Ludger, Zoe, Nonon, Majima.
[ some of these were infinitely more times than others. ]
no subject
[he has Plans for next week and fuck me running why is he this way.]
no subject
Thanks.
[ he is giving ishi way too much work. ]
