So it's not the Soul Gem corrupting because of the Dark Soul, it's the Dark Soul going nuts because of the Soul Gem. Some might call this a distinction without a difference, but it's actually significant. If I remember my lore right, the natural state of the Dark is calm and gentle. Certain...

... Huh. Okay, this does confirm what Illias said, which Bearen did think, but it's worth having extra confirmation. Also Franciska has causally swims around in the space between realms. That's cool. This might be semantics, but I also don't think she's casting illusions. I think she's...

Shouldn't we leave some of the team to gaurd the machines? We know people are here and playing fuck-fuck games, wouldn't want to leave a bunch of mobile suits around for them to run off with. [X] You can handle this. Cascadia Team has to prove their worth. You have to show that you're more than...

[X] [The Defected Agent] These are all great choices. If Reisen wasn't on the table, it'd still be a tough pick, but I'd probably go with Byakuren. But ultimately I've a soft spot for the butt of the joke bunny. Little bit. But happier still for a soild update.

I'd give this an informative rating, but I don't understand what that means.

Well, they had a good run. Hopefully the aircons are still around and need fixing, Shirou can bargain for his and Ayako's life from there. Oh. I like Circe, so knowing she isn't going to disappear in a puff of logic is good. On the other hand, I doubt Shirou actually had much to do with that...

Real talk though, a great deal of Dark Souls lore shows that basically every form of power in the world is some form of dangerous or corruptive. The most reliable tool Kirika has picked up has been pyromancy, which has left a burn scar on her hand magic doesn't heal. At the high end of playing...

[X] You need a moment to collect yourself -[X] Talk to Beatrice about… whatever that just was -[X] Go thank Oscar I was hoping for attacking with Kirika's accumulated grief. Ah well, at least we now know beyond doubt.

[X] Run out of the warehouse. Get into the open and lead this bastard into M200's range.

Could also have easily been the Ranger character doing a bit of roll-play or doing a funny himself, thinking he probably wouldn't hit the guy running away and unexpectedly rolling high. Would've been a low point of the session, but later an extremely funny story if the play group and campaign...

Can't fault Cidrom for feeling that way. Bearen was keeping a hell of a lot bottled up and even more left unsaid. Not sure if it'd be better to let her emotions cool a bit or to just dive into a conversation head first. I think she's the type to stew in her own emotions. That said, he gained a...

Good setup and beather chapter. It's all coming together, and about to be capped off with what feels like a hellish mulit-boss mega dungeon. So it's probably not going to be that simple. Fortunately, we have some truly insane magicians and magician-likes by our side. [X] [Ayako] I know we've...

[X] [Berserker] Having never read the VN, all I can say is that he still isn't doing great, but he has developed a substantial support network through this mess. If most of them come out of this alive, he'll probably be fine. It's that living thing that's a bit of a sticking point.

It also probably makes going home awkward. She's the eldest by a lot, and what I know about Succubus makes me think they don't have much in common with Miki. That can be very tough in a sibling dynamic. Plus she's a completely different type of Monster Girl. All together, I wouldn't be surprised...

Not a bad thing, no. As you say, we haven't talked to her like, at all. She was never uninteresting, we just had a lot of interesting characters to talk to. Plus she came in just before Gorefiend, so a little late to the party.
