The Network: May, An Inauspicious Arrival

The Watches Everyone who arrives in an unorthodox way and eventually shows up at the Coven for 'orientation', will receive a strange, watch-like device compliments of the Coven and Parliament. Miss Nessie or one of the welcome wagon crew will give characters a run-down of how to use the various functions and they are encouraged to test them out for themselves. It would be good for them to get in touch with their fellow Mirrorbound, of course! Fourth wall characters will not be able to make their own posts in the communities, so they may use this post to make "network posts" of their own by top-leveling. The log post is right over here.

that's...really rough. i don't know how i'd take if it i found that out about my home.

[ A basement, huh... ]

you're not going to take that kind of treatment from the rest of the world, are you?

[trost]

Of course not, but we're just a small island. We had plans to build better economic relations.

[ Her talk of 'not going to take that kind of treatment' reminds him of someone else, though. Someone whose tenacity can be lethal. It makes him frown when he thinks about that person. ]

What would you do, in our situation?

[confectionerie]

oh, me?

[ Even after what she said, she isn't expecting that question, and it takes her a moment to consider her answer. What would she do? ]

i guess i'd do whatever it would take to keep my home safe. it shouldn't really matter what they think of you.

[trost]

Yeah? Would you go as far as killing others?

[confectionerie]

[ Hm...that's a fair question, but still not an easy one to answer. ]

If there was no other way to keep the people I care about safe...

Sorry, I didn't mean for the conversation to get all heavy.

[trost]

Guess that's the reasonable response after all. You're like someone I know.

[ Someone who is off destroying the rest of the world -- at least, back home. Sorry, Ann, but this is where his mind is going. ]

... Nah, it's my fault it got heavy. [ Because his life is so fucked!!! ]

[confectionerie]

[ It's okay, she's a bit more ruthless than some of her fellow Phantom Thieves, so it's not entirely unfair... ]

Don't worry about it. It's probably not an easy thing to talk about, either. By the way, I'm Ann! Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself before.

[ ann savage queen ]

It's alright. My name's Jean.

I've talked a lot about myself already. Do you... come from a peaceful land then?

[confectionerie]

Not exactly. It depends on where in the world you're asking about. My country's pretty peaceful, though. At least, from a war perspective. There's been a lot of other shady things happening lately, though.
