In light of recent events...

Do you have any plans to deal with upcoming dissent?

That's not our job. It's Amaterasu's and she said she's gonna handle it. I trust her.

Text - If that's what you want to call it

[cryptaesthesia]

Regardless of Amaterasu, it's irresponsible to be merely reactive.

I get the impression though, you're the type who'd rather be bossed around.

[talkbirdytome]

I think somebirdie really high up is in cahoots with the xerox banditos.

[They've been upgraded from 'flyer idiots.']

So I think if anything is going to get done, we'll have to organize and do it ourselves. That includes investigating. I'm not sure we should trust any of the info coming from upstairs.

[ god she's bored

she can't believe she's so bored that she's replying to this ]

A barricade usually suffices, does it not?

[ so bored ]

[cryptaesthesia]

[Puns.]

Hm...and where will you start? Do you know what you're investigating?

[Text]

[cryptaesthesia]

[The feeling, my dear, is entirely mutual.]

Physical or Psychic?

[slantedcross]

Trying to figure out how original your idea is?

Or how much you can charge before it becomes too expensive?

[priforprince]

Whatever's available.

[ Psychic barriers are possible?

....Do they keep out sentence enders? ]

[cryptaesthesia]

'Available.' You're expecting to stumble upon one?

[Alas, they seem less than effective against language quirks and children.]

[cryptaesthesia]

I wasn't aware I was selling anything here.

You could argue though, that security has no price.

[priforprince]

More that I enjoy exploring my options.

[ She spies on people to figure out whether they're useful and then sorts little dolls of them accordingly into boxes she keeps in her temple.

we have already established she is bored, yes ]

Text

[slantedcross]

That is has no price or that it's priceless? If you're assuming Amaterasu's security benefits us all equally that would make sense. But we still don't know what problem people have with her or why.

Text

[cryptaesthesia]

You should be creating your own opportunities.

Text

[cryptaesthesia]

I'm assuming no such thing. Perhaps you should consider trying to do the same.

"Dissent" in the form of arson and assault or "dissent" in the form of people getting upset about how it's being handled?

private; text

[cryptaesthesia]

Strangely, it seems I've left it open to interpretation.

Unfortunately, we're already at self-forming barricades and bird puns.

private; text

[skepticstarbuck]

Next time you might have more luck if you're specific.

It was a decent try.

private; text

[cryptaesthesia]

I wasn't looking for their plans, Ms. Scully.

Regardless, I can work with whatever I can get.

private; text

[skepticstarbuck]

Bird puns.

[Those are going to be really useful. The problem with being too subtle is that he's not getting their opinions, either.]

[cryptaesthesia]

Children aren't my wheelhouse.

Anon; text - For now

[volksdaemon]

I'm insulted, sir! Amaterasu isn't our boss, she's our benevolent protector. There's a major difference you know!

Besides, you're talking about upcoming dissent as if there hasn't been any since the day the first new god and shinki arrived in the Far Shore. This is nothing new and it's not her fault either.

private; text

[skepticstarbuck]

She might be a child, but she sounds like she might already have a suspect in mind for our arsonist.

I can question her if you're not comfortable with it.

Text - SON

[cryptaesthesia]

Are you always this defensive?

private; text

[cryptaesthesia]

I was hoping you'd say that.

private; text

[skepticstarbuck]

I can handle a few puns if you'd rather price security, Mr. Crawford.

You don't happen to know where Mielikki lives, do you?
