Oh yeah, I don't care either. I assume that they do care though. That's what actual businesses do in cases of intellectual property yoinking like this. Pay for it.
This seems like a good plan. I'm on board with this.

This is what she told us directly. No mention of Hazō or the rest of the team.
This was the 15th of October and when we paused Akane's FOOMing. The rest of us continued to FOOM till the 22nd when we got this as a follow up
It's been 9 days since then. So at most we should pause for another few days.I'd be comfortable pulling the trigger now or doing the it on the 7th path

How is that an "at most"? At least a few days, and then re-evaluation, seems more accurate.
You very much like to upsell our power level. This is the golden ticket to us actually getting enough power to do the things you want to do. It is absolutely worth a bit of delay if it ensures we don't lose it before we're strong enough to just keep it by fiat. 7th path, sure, but that does have the non -trivial cost of requiring a common summon location in the plane, and meaning that Hazou and/or Kei are just not around for most of the day whenever they want to train. Which is not advisable in the middle of moving the entire clan, when we have the "change the earth to make housing and infrastructure" jutsu. And, y'know, clan head.

Def my bad, I meant to say/imply that absent of new evidence I would stop in a few days. Since we already FOOMed early and will be over a month since all of this kicked of
Sigh your mostly right
It's just we're so close to being able to do cool shit so I'm getting antsy. It's been literal years since we started FOOM and can see the horizon. Waiting another couple years just sounds like so much agony

mist social spec want lasting relationships. asuma said mari good at seduction but not at building lasting relationships. i think leaf clan heads have socials for lasting relationships. maybe mari/ami can learn from them. their socials should also allow them to spot any of mari's manipulation, which should help.

We're still using one SC for notes since Mari thought it was fine, so:
Hazou notes XP
3 * 2 * 5 = 30 Sealing XP
- Orochimaru's Sealing notes #4: S:0 B: 63 R:87
3 * 5 = 15 MedNin XP, 15 MedKnow XP
- Orochimaru's MedKnow notes #3: S: 65, B: 10, R: 0
- Orochimaru's MedKnow notes #4: S: 0, B: 15, R: 60
- Orochimaru's MedNin notes #3: S: 0, B: 27, R: 48
- note: MedKnow 3 totals have been wrong for the last few postings. It totaled to 100 when it should've totaled to 75. However, MedKnow 3 and 4 notes are the same rate, so I've subtracted 25 from 3's total and added it to 4's. Hopefully this is more accurate now.
3 * 2 * 5 = 30 MedNin XP, 30 MedKnow XP

This plan needs more stuff (it's one, maybe two, maaaybe three if the custard is anything other than, like...custard?) so let me know what else you want to do.
I'd like to knock the telescope thing on the head and potentially kick off a relationship with the Aburame. They're all about mutually beneficial relationships and I think we can sell them on the idea. I'd also like some sensory-type friends in town and potential necronaut recruits.
I've included some quotes below which justify various plan sections: I figure this is easier for the QMs than hyperlinks in the plan as it actually references the text.

- In private, examine the telescope.
- Notice that it's two aligned lenses. Earthshape and assemble a copy - quartz lenses, stone tube.
- Prioritize the clarity, internal consistency, and surface smoothness of the lenses, and the concentricity of the tube/fittings.
- Compare its performance (range/clarity/etc.) to the original.
- Destroy the results if they suck.
- Notice that it's two aligned lenses. Earthshape and assemble a copy - quartz lenses, stone tube.
- If the above goes well, optimize the below with Kei/Mari.
- Speak with Aburame lensmakers or Shino as appropriate.
- Give them your telescope (replacing the granite tube with a mundane one) and any other lenses you made.
- First and foremost: they hold the only lenses you've ever created. You'll neither make more nor take actions allowing others to make more except at their explicit direction. You have no desire to infringe upon their status as Leaf's sole lensmakers.
- Explain that you can copy - not create - lenses without significant labour.
- Don't tell them how you copied the lenses; claim clan secrets (and imply it's related to your bloodline).
- You think Leaf would be well-served by telescope-equipped ninja. The Goketsu would like to work with the Aburame to make this reality.
- Your primary goals are the betterment of Leaf and closer ties to the Aburame. You admire them and hope that a closer relationship would help Goketsu integrate more fully into Leaf. (Tone: young clan seeks assistance of respected elder.)
- Goketsu and Aburame have worked together to mutual benefit before (voting for Jiraiya, instructing Harumitsu). You want to continue that.
- Emphasize throughout that what you've done was only possible because of the skill and diligence of Aburame craftspeople, and the goodwill they extended you. You would never knowingly dishonour that.
- If it seems safe/interesting, make Orochimaru's egg custard. Try it. Save some for Ami.
- Continue working on the estate and begin chakrascope research.

Can we just have this at the top, instead of optimizing only the Aburame conversation with them? A paranoid part of me imagines a scenario wherein the Aburame become aware of us making a telescope copy using theirs as the blueprint, and coming to the conclusion that we intend to make more for sale/personal use without consulting them.
Another paranoid part of me imagines the custard containing a subtly poisonous combination of ingredients, and us suffering horribly after trying it.
I would rather Hazō state that this is what he intends to do rather than explicitly promise to do this, but otherwise I like the plan.

Is the lack of response here due to forgetfulness or internal QM discussion (or some other thing I'm not privy to)?

No, but I've added to do that in private. The timelines on this are short, we have good defenses if they catch wind ("this wasn't a clan secret and we're here being ultra-reasonable, also why were you spying on me?") and honestly I'd like to know we can make a telescope if need arises.
Can you put this in other words, or suggest alternate phrasing for the plan?
Also @eaglejarl @Velorien @Paperclipped are Aburame lenscrafters all civilians and/or is it immediately obvious to Hazo that his creating lenses with ninja techniques is going to be a Merchant Council issue?
Sure. I'd replace this
with this
What do the ❄️ reacts mean? I have no idea what is going on.
We couldn't aim the 5sf wires either, and that got us dragon sashimi

@FaintlySorcerous would you be willing to cut the Custard part? Something tells me that Ami won't find it as humorous as we-the-hivemind do.
We might find the juxtaposition of "Deadly Orochimaru, cruel and callous in the extreme" and "custard recipe" amusing, but Hazou-the-character and Ami might feel differently.
I feel like this has the potential to be another Youthsuit incident.

- Test using all SC hours for

- More time with friends and family.
- Maintaining political bonds.
- Keep outward facing SC use to normal levels. Can mask small overuse as reason for the sealing headaches.
- Compare results to switching SCs back to training.
