[X][MissingWhen] I want us to not go missing

I don't think Kei will go, and I don't want to go without Kei.

I also don't trust that even Naruto could protect the Gōketsu second stringers and civvies from the social (and religious) backlash of us "abandoning"/"betraying" Leaf

[X][OrochimaruProcess] Have Orochimaru do the bioseal process that will break Hidan's current tracking lock on Hazō


Given combinatorial explosion, voting for missing ninja on a name basis (rather than a squad basis) might give more illuminating results. e.g. 80% want Mari, 70% want Noburi, 10% want Yuno, etc. I don't have strong opinions about who comes, under this format.


Unrelated, I had a half-sentence in the post box that just says: "I think a directed energy weapon is" <- talk about aspirational :V

I want to go missing within days, because every day that passes is a day Naruto might realize FOOM's implications and so pay us a visit and go "I've changed my mind: if you go missing, I'm going to do everything in my power to drag you back". That said, there's a bunch of things to take care of first (e. g., set up the dissolution of the clan to not fuck over everyone else in it); that said, I think we could get all of this done in the next day or two.

(But do it while Naruto is sleeping, so he can't realize what's happening and try to arrest us until it's too late.)

[x][MissingWho] Modern Team Uplift + Reo (TH) (Hazō, Kagome, Mari, Kei, Noburi, Yuno Reo the Gōketsu TH teacher)

IMO, there are only two tolerable options: only Hazou and Kagome, or the whole team (Yuno included, not including her seems, like, comically monstrous). If we take a large chunk of the Gouketsu but leave anyone in Leaf, it's going to be hellish for them: both due to the reaction of the rest of the Leaf society, and the possibility of the Akatsuki rolling by to take them hostage.

That said, I'd like to fill Kei in on what we're planning before we leave (like, hours before), and give her a chance to stay if she really prefers this, given that she has the most connections and feels that she has a responsibility to KEI. Plus, it would let us set up the Gouketsu Clan dissolution dead-man switch + let Kei set up something similar for her own political roles (obviously without blowing up our cover; timed letters, etc.).

Haven't considered the Reo option before, I'm skeptical, but that seems interesting and worth discussing, especially if Dogs/Toads can't teach us TH.

[x][OrochimaruProcess] Have Orochimaru do the bioseal process that will break Hidan's current tracking lock on Hazō

I think it's plausible to suspect that Hidan's bloodline tracking and Jashin's ability to guide him to his targets interact in some manner that lets him better track people whose blood he has. Non-chakra based sympathetic magic that lets the entity somehow piggyback off of his chakra-based blood sense in order to more easily bend probability when it's related to tracking people, I dunno.

Also, this leads to more Snuncle interactions, and Snuncle interactions are great.

[x][OrochimaruProcess] Do not have Orochimaru do the bioseal process that will break Hidan's current tracking lock on Hazō

Actually I've changed my mind, I think I'd currently be really wary that he would realize we're about to go missing if we approach him with this now (since we leaked that the Akatsuki are after us, to the point that he's trying to forbid us from doing rune research anywhere outside his Basement). So I'd be concerned about him approaching Naruto immediately afterwards, or installing some tracking mechanisms of his own, etc.

Oh boy, even one of the entities implementing MfD's world doesn't think of Snowflake as anything except an extension of Kei, easily dismissed. She's going to be heartbroken.

The reason I didn't suggest this during drafting is that it gets unwieldy once you start thinking about whom you don't want to bring, so you also have to vote for "not Yuno", "not Orochimaru", "not Zabuza", etc.

Edit: It also simplifies cases like "I want to bring both or neither of Noburi and Yuno, but not just one of the two", which are lost in individual name voting.

If it helps- In this scenario, we went on a mission and didn't come back. This is a regular occurrence in the ninja world and it means we died. In particular, we're trying to imitate the Sannin's track to power and Konoha has a history of people trying to adventure in dangerous locations to become Sannin 2.0 and dying about it. Given that we can spend our time hiding far away from anywhere in skytowers and the 7th Path the odds are good we're just going to be assumed KIA.

Eh, this isn't supposed to be a fun vacation.

Naruto having an excuse to clamp down on the Clans for investigation is going to be good for him. (Or terrible, can go either way)

This is a Hokage "approved" mission anyway, and my selection would leave him Kei and Mari.

Can the cute military children really deny to fight the people that killed their parents and are assholes anyway? Don't care, it's an order by their Boss.

I want to talk to Sasuke, finish pumping Orochimaru for information, and try to feel Kei out beforehand. I also want to make sure the Seventh Path is stable enough that we aren't going to be necessary.

This is self-explanatory IMO.

I want Kei to come. I don't know that it's feasible. For one, it might simply kill Snowflake - or at least put her in a coma. Without the koi and on the run, we need to conserve chakra. For another, she's a political lynchpin in Leaf. Her staying might be hugely important.

I'd like to ask Snowflake if we can ask her without Kei finding out, and then see how it goes. You can't torture a Shadow Clone for information and I'm not sure you can mind-dive a clone, either.

[X][OrochimaruProcess] Do not have Orochimaru do the bioseal process that will break Hidan's current tracking lock on Hazō

I don't want to find out what happens when we reject the bloodline. We can just ask Jashin where to go.

If we do undergo the procedure, let's go hard, though. Sleep seal and whatever other kit he's willing to give us.

Frankly I'm a little split on asking Snuncle about going missing - not with us, but for advice in general.

Should be fine most days, we should be on the 7th Path most days, training with the Toads and researching. No biggie for Kei to summon a Snowflake in the morning

For another, she's a political lynchpin in Leaf. Her staying might be hugely important.
On the other hand we may fail without her and that political linchpin stuff matters a lot less when Pain is back.

We need to get Noburi out NOW.

No reason not to give ourselves a big head start. Hopefully we can pretend we got killed for bonus time.

Leaving uplift behind is a death sentence, as is leaving Yuno if Noburi joins. Clan heads Shika and Ino will have to deal, but they can stay in leaf, and it's less obvious that we care about them(Hazou/Kei's public lack of monogamy, and public perception that Kei is "cucking" Shika in a purely political marriage both work in our favour)
Reo means we can finish our TH lessons. If Mareo can teach TH, then don't bring Reo.

The blood tracking is strategically irrelevant, it's the unrelated "hunches" power that we need to worry about.

[X] Treasonous Meetings
  • Sanity check with Mari
  • Meet with Cannai.
    • Explain the necromancy situation.
    • This is as big a deal, on par with the dragons, and it's all relying on us.
    • We can't solve this problem while in Leaf, and staying in leaf endangers our family and clan.
    • We feel we need to go missing until we can win the necromancy race. Will you support us in this?
      • This initially means pretending that we died in the field.
      • Latter, this may mean turning Akatsuki away from your borders
      • Aditionaly, any expert training you or your best teachers can provide would help enormously.
      • Please encourage an EJounin combat doggy to contract with us - our survival is vital to both our paths.
  • Meet with Maero
    • Bring luxuries and drinks
    • Does he know TH? Will he teach us? Pretty pretty please?
    • Confirm that our Orgy-assassination attempt is still in process, we're getting Mari a scroll, and she can't wait to meet him.(tone: playfull/mock-serious)
  • Max-security meeting with Family(uplift +Yuno)
    • Explain Necromancy, Runes, ect.
    • Going missing(temporarily!) seems like the only way forward.
      • Give everyone a chance to discuss alternate options, we'd love a better alternative, but don't think one exists.
    • If no one has a better plan, we'll leave on a "scroll hunt" or other long-term mission tomorrow, and want everyone here to join us.
      • We need to leave now, before WHOOSH fully leaks and Noburi is confined to leaf.
      • We'll send false reports, then fake our deaths after a month or two(if we can get our summon bosses to cooperate.)
        • Longer-term options include making a research fortress over a random patch of ocean, but we're open to suggestions
      • Kei, Snowflake, should we hire Tenten to join us?
        • Would she be willing to join us as missing nin? What would be best for her?
    • Pre-mission prep
      • Be really careful not to act strangely, and try to minimise contact with people who might see through you(Tsunade, Shika, etc.)
      • Kagome needs to stay in his room and not talk to anyone until we go, a Mari clone can do shopping and other prep for him.
      • Mari: learn all the tower lighting jutsu.
      • Kei/Snowflake/Mari: use what intelligence reports you can access to put together a list of useful targets. Especially get current bingo books, known jashin temples, known users of A/S-Rank earth element buffs, and leads on a TH instructor.(we should also ask if Mareo can teach TH)
      • Stockpile goods on the 7th path. Include luxuries for Maero, sealing supplies, and anything we can't get in the field.
Updated to ask Maero to be our TH teacher.
