[X]Plan Infernal Necessities
-[X][School x1] Attend School: you have friends at school and you would like the memories of senior year and graduation even if they won't be teaching you anything worthwhile (If neither School nor getting your GED is chosen Molly will systematically skip class)
-[X][Finance x1] Starting Up: you have an assistant and an idea, not to help actually set this thing in motion, not just the paperwork but actually getting (or making) some machines that look like they could make diamonds. Also includes making more diamonds.
-[X][Investigations x1] Spirit Speaker: Mortimer Lindquist is apparently a real medium who also does fake seances, he is also quite a talented writer. It would be cool to meet him, but you also have a more serious reason to seek his company. Rosie is still mentally fragile and she is in a hospital and you have it on good and... er diverse authority that places like that are gathering places for dark and predatory spirits
-[X][Investigations x1] A friend in need: You promised Rosie that you would help and so you will, with problems material and ethereal
--[X]Dreaming True: Rosie is doing great so far, but she still needs more training before she can get a proper hold of her powers (3/10 progress)
-[X][Personal Training x1] Trading in Lore: you have started down the path of learning alchemy from Bob... and revealing some of the deepest secrets of Yomi Wan, both very good things as far as you are concerned. (15/25 and 9/20)
-[X][Arcane Allies x1] Restoring the Last Station: Restoration efforts have been going well and according to Adam some more of the people down in the tunnels have shown interest in their newfound wealth and comfort (2/8)
Total: 6AP
RATIONALE
School because Molly needs the social with her mortal friends, and it keeps her options open with regards to university.
Starting Up finishes establishing our diamond production and cash flow; the Jade Dogs have to be fed and supplied, and they might be seeing additional recruits as well.
Plus, cash flow gives us additional options with regards to Rosie and the Ordo.
Dreaming True is getting Rosie trained up to basic safety standards so that she doesnt stumble into trouble by mistake.
Its time sensitive; we probably need to get this done before Halloween. Once that is done, we can look at introducing her to the Ordo Lebetis and talking to her mother. We might introduce her to Lydia now.
Training in Lore unlocks Alchemy 1 for purchase.
Its almost finished; just needs 1 AP.
Restoring the Last Station is a slow and steady option.
No need to rush; at the rate we did it last turn, we'd be finished in three more months.
Also, it gives us time to see if the Jade Dogs are drawing additional interest.

It was a tough decision between Family Time and Spirit Speaker.
Ultimately, my decision was this: Lydia the daughter of the death god needs an introduction to the local ghost whisperer.
It will also be useful to get his input about precautions against dark and predatory spirits for sensitives like Rosie and the Ordo as well, before Halloween. There's a synergy there to be exploited.
Also, ghost activity is always a good indicator for necromancer activity, and Chicago has had the interest of too many necromancers in the last five years.
We MUST take Family Time next turn though.
Spend some onscreen time with Leech and the rest of the family. Also, October is spooky season when a lot more spirit stuff has access to the mortal world, so it makes sense that Molly spend extra time with her family then.

We can take a 1-month break from training with Brother Divsimar.
Tell him that with school starting again, we need to take a break to rearrange our schedule, see to some other affairs, and see to a friend (Rosie).Start again in October.

Odin can wait.
We have Mab in October/November, and Gard was there when Mab made that appointment. She would have told him about that.
He isnt going to take offense that we prioritized the Queen of Air and Darkness. One Immortal at a time.

I have NO interest in accosting Charity about her past before maxing out Empathy 5.
And there is no immediate hurry. As long as we do it by January/February Im good.
