I wouldn't try to channel new colours unless it's under controlled conditions, not just to escape a social situation.
 
[] Try to channel White. If White-you is as boring as her color, she won't have the slightest interest in your emotions. Just what you need right now.
White is... fine? White is community and order, but I'm not very sure what exactly that would look like on a date (which this is).
So why not do it? I don't expect a better time to come up.
[] Try to channel Black. Black-you won't possibly be interested in a relationship, right?
No. Channelling death, decay and economics is a horrible idea.
Channeling the color of economics seems like a great idea when shopping.

ummm ... weren't we in the middle of something political before the disease/devoid detour?

You opted to let Agneyastra handle that unless it would be better for you to participate in or say something (with her guidance).


If it's misleading then it's an error? Because then it's an issue for the SV Staff to fix it.

It's such a well-rooted one that it would gum up coloration for countless posts, so please leave it.
 
Well, if we want to guilt Sidhe into following we can probably command her to but... I wouldn't, and I suspect mom is allowed to countermand our orders as our guardian.
She can:
"As Jade's adoptive mother, I will also be able to negate her orders, Sidhe. I could not issue new ones outside of an emergency."

Fifteen minutes after your original argument with Omri, you find yourself staring at a massive room full of the sick and dying. With the exceptions of Nanoha and Agneyastra's real form, all your friends opted to follow Omri to the rest of the board instead of staying with you. You're honestly not 100% certain why Nanoha stayed; you don't really think there's anything she can do to help.

Jade would veto that anyway. The oath was given (in part) as a gesture of trust and Jade is still pretty uncomfortable with it; ordering Sidhe like that would be a perfect example of why.



The cancer treatment has been taken care of by Neph's Chain Cleansing, albeit with healers still working on all the internal damage and one or two (mass) jumps left to go.

Go shopping with Nanoha and try not to spaz out.
 
[X] Burst-channel Blue for a moment to get your emotions under control.

Let's regain our equilibrium first. A quick channel will clear the after-effects of Neph's influence and help us stay calm.



[] Ask Mom to please bring her avatar back so it isn't just a two-girl outing.
A chaperone doesn't solve the problem, and Agneyastra shouldn't reveal her multitasking by going shopping and talking with the council at once.

Also, no default option for pendant amplify, though I'm not sure what emotion would be helpful here.
Resolve? Anticipation? Curiosity? :p


BTW, White is also social and Black is selfishness, so both aren't great options.



Edit: I reduced my vote to its core points to keep the tally clean. I stii think we should look for a birthday present first, though.

I have been informed that shoujo ai as a genre name has some especially negative connotations in the original language — and, more importantly (since Japan's ongoing condescension-esque issues with homosexuality persist in Ignition-MGLN's Japan), it was a purely western name for the genre. That part of the joke has been changed to girls' love as a result. Thanks!

"You did, Daughter. It is worth noting that the patient is known as a 'Fanalis,' a human variant I would be interested in studying further. This may not be overly difficult; he was neither a willing immigrant nor a volunteer. I will act to rescue him."
Ah, so he is a Fanalis. Cool.

Yeah...I'm just going to stay out of this vote entirely. Asking me for my opinion stuff like this is like asking a penguin for advice on flying: technically, I'm in the right category to know something, but I'm not really a good person to ask about any facet of this situation. And my instincts are likely to lead me wrong.

I think that "let yourself be pulled along" will just get us pulled in deeper:
you turn back just in time to spot a literal sparkle of mischief. It vanishes at one edge of her eye and reappears at the other, possibly hidden behind some sort of contact lenses. That, you decide, is cheating.

"So it looks like future-you is still going to be just as nice as present-you, right?" Nanoha asks with false innocence.
The younger girl shrugs, but is unable to conceal the malicious gleams in her eyes.

"Oh, well. Are we starting anywhere in particular or just wandering?"

@curiosity: I absolutely agree.

Neph pushing a little I can understand, observing us is her only form of entertainment, and she didn't go overboard. Nanoha should know better.



"just wandering" as Nanoha suggested would be especially awkward for Jade, which is why I'm pushing for getting the birthday present first.
A goal-oriented outing with Nanoha is fine, a date will bring back the anxiety from early Ignition we worked hard to stamp out.

Keep in mind what we started as:
"Subject #1: Jade Agni. Suffers from depression, mild paranoia, demophobia, iophobia, mild atychiphobia, and the phenomenon known as 'loneliness.'
Some people handle rejection really badly.

Jade recalls three incidents prior to the start o' this quest. Two of them were easily dissuaded (in the sense that they didn't come back later) and lost interest in Jade after she turned them down, making her assume (correctly) that they just wanted to get under her skirt. The third unleashed a string of insults and soon joined Jade's bullies.
Jade just isn't ready to deal with this yet.
