Our current system could use improvements.

For that reason, I'm looking into two prospective methods:
— An ayakashi detection network
— An emergency contact system

I think it's worthwhile to see if those with mechanical and programming skill could create a network of monitoring devices that specifically respond to an ayakashi's darkness. This would enable us to detect them sooner and dispatch them more efficiently.

And this system would be used in conjunction with an automatic forwarding system. A message concerning detected ayakashi and location(s) would be sent out to any volunteers on a mailing list.

In addition to this, the emergency contact system could be used by gods or shinki to notify others when they're in need of assistance. Anyone who volunteers to be respondents on that system will have messages automatically forwarded to them, so they can assist in handling threats.

If anyone is interested in making this work, respond with relevant skills and what aspect you want to participate in. In my case, I can Hold the Fort but I can't Kill Ayakashi. I have knowledge of Coding, but not Mechanics.

[ooc: In response to a whole mess that resulted in needing to name a shinki to save him from being consumed and the blightstorm that followed, he's of the impression that certain provisions should be made to avoid the necessity of such last-ditch options.

Also! Please feel free to thread hop/jack! By all means coordinate efforts with folks of similar skills/abilities or heckle each other. Hoping this gives people something to play with]

I'm not interested in becoming a bludgeoning tool, so don't waste your time.

[scrap_metal]

How about becoming a cutting tool?

[subtract]

Even less interested.

[He's still not over the possibility of his form being fragile enough to break in the heat of battle, but even if he was, being in a fight like that would be so... s-so messy...]

Stop trying to help. He can use Ludger or that butler if he wants to.

[scrap_metal]

I'm not trying to help you, so you have nothing to say about this.

[ he's discussing this with your god, Add. Until he tells him to stop, he won't ]

[subtract]

If it's my body I think I have a right to have my say in it.

[scrap_metal]

But you have also duties towards your god.

[subtract]

I only do the work that I agree to do. I'm not a slave, this is a mutually beneficial relationship so I'm not going to do something dangerous if I don't have to.

[scrap_metal]

Of course it's mutually beneficial. Your god takes care of you, and support him in battle.

Battles tend to get dangerous.

[subtract]

I'm not going to support him in a way that's more dangerous to myself and doesn't guarantee any more safety for him either. That's just stupidity. What goes on between me and my god is none of your business.

Go ahead and ask him yourself. He won't use me like that without my permission, so making suggestions is a waste of time.

[scrap_metal]

Seems to me you're more concerned with your safety then responsibilities. But you're right on that, it's not my business.

[ Add, you're a disgrace to shinki as a whole ]

[subtract]

Would you willingly kill yourself for your god? Honestly, have a sense of self-preservation. There are limits to what should be expected of someone.

[Definitely not aiming for any Best Shinki awards, yeah.]

[scrap_metal]

It's not expected of a shinki to die for their god. But yes, if that was necessary, I would follow.

[ self-preservation? what is self-preservation? ]

[subtract]

How pointlessly noble of you. [don't worry, Genos, Add wouldn't let his beautiful cyborg research subject sacrifice himself so easy...]
