[X] Onmur

I prefer phrasing the "introduce as Kures" as a little more... casual? Not joking necessarily, we want them to blush with the truth of it more than laugh it off, but this seems toooo formal for what it is. But thats a small nitpick I suppose.
I actually thought about it yesterday, and... if we introduce them as 'the Kures', isn't there a chance the Pleiades will think they're sisters?

(Even if they look nothing alike, this is animeland after all).

Well, up until Kirika makes a decent impression of a tomato, so maybe for a second or two.
 
[X] Introduce everyone; introduce Oriko and Kirika as 'Kirika Kure' and 'Oriko Kure née Mikuni' (translation convention).

Two things: One, I'm not sure about introducing O&K with a joke line, though I'm throwing it in my vote for now.

Two... this is so perfect, though. We were the ringbearer, and Mami was witness when Kirika put the gold ring on Oriko's finger.

[X] Flying speed: Maximum (Give warning).
[X] Heal Oriko fully. Remind her that lasers are on her skill tree, since she's worried about combat worth.

[X] Discuss:
-[X] Oriko's not a precog anymore, though she's had visions about Asunaro.
-[X] Possible threats (respect Niko's privacy). Disclaim accuracy of information; note discrepancies in timing.
-[X] Thief Hunting:
--[X] Tracking: Following physical or magical traces; share your skills; ask Mami about using her Ribbons to cover wide areas, for example in combination with our Sensing Constructs?
--[X] Searching: Search groups, base of operations, regrouping; ask Sayaka and Kazumi to copy the Mobile Oppression Fortress to bring mobility to each hunting party.
--[X] Fighting: Setting up magical detection and magical defenses, specially against mental/'intangible' attacks?

[X] On arrival: Introduce everyone, offer help to sort Niko's lab, and gather information.
-[X] Proceed with agreed upon plans.

Mmm... I feel there's more that could be said here, better. Ideas?

Some adjustments to Onmur's vote.

[X] Introduce everyone; introduce Oriko and Kirika as 'Kirika and Oriko Kure.'

//Thoughts here: Way I see it, this joke works better when it's just delivered in a flat and offhand way. So Kirika and Oriko Kure (or Kure Oriko and Kirika once translated) without reference that anything was ever different keeps it properly low key and only noticeable by people's reactions to the joke.

//I would have a "hand" joke here but I think the seriousness of situation really requires limiting ourselves. (alas)

[X] Flying speed: Ludicrous (Give proper warning.)
[X] Offer to heal Oriko fully

//Cut off "remind oriko that lasers are part of her skill tree" since I feel it ties far too deeply to our metaknowledge. It may be worth talking to her about her having unknown skills since, by my reading, she didn't know about healing or enchantment from her precognition.

//It might be possible to talk about her attaining lasers without giving the game away about our metaknowlege, but I cant see a proper way to do so.

//I think this does a better job at going through what we want to look for on reaching Niko's place. That should not be left as an afterthought.

I had a cute idea for an omake but I don't know how to write it the way I want it to come out. So have the outline.

so everyone is eating lunch, and Mami's like "Slow down a bit, Sabrina, you'll hurt your stomach if you eat that fast"
and Sabrina's like "Well, um. We're Magical Girls, we totally work off the pounds, it's fine" and Mami is like "But you really shouldn't get into that habit."
and Sabrina's like "....Would you still love me even if I was fat?" "O-f course. Um.... You would too, right?" >//>
"Oh Mami. Mami Mami Mami. You can look any way you want. It'd just be more Mami to hug." Cuteness happens. Everyone is watching. The two realize and get a bit embarassed.
Kirika and Kazumi are both glitter-eyed, as Kirika pushes some of her food onto Sabrina's plate with a "do it" stare.
Kazumi, meanwhile, piles onto Mami's plate. Then grabs Umika's plate to pile on to it some more. "Don't involve me in this." "But Mami needs to grow big and strong!!! I'll give you some of my food to make up for it!" "Then you should've just taken from your plate to begin with!" "But but!" Cute Pleiades romantic bickering
Sayaka just watches everyone being gay and looks at her sandwich as her chewing slows down. Then she swallows. And she just says "It's too early for you all to be this gay."
Sabrina's like "Yea you're right let's go grab Kyouko." "WHY?"
Omake end.

My Collective Metafictional Self-Insert And Her Girlfriend Can't Be This Cute!
 
//It might be possible to talk about her attaining lasers without giving the game away about our metaknowlege, but I cant see a proper way to do so.
Point.

@Onmur, did you actually decide to remove the introductions, as per Phoenixian, or did you just forget to put them in:

[ ] Introduce everyone; introduce Oriko and Kirika as 'Kirika and Oriko Kure.'
 
Sayaka is explicitly unable to copy Sabrina's grief-manipulation powers. Why would she be able to copy a grief construct? Why would Kazumi?
Kazumi's magic creates effects which duplicate the apparent effects of magic used by other magical girls. You'll note that she hasn't tried copying the way we cleanse people, and that her first action on seeing the chibi was asking if the effect had a name - you can think of her power as being able to emulate moves rather than to copy powers. It does not do the same kind of metaphysical "I am now using your power" that Sayaka apparently does that doesn't work on Sabrina's power.

Sayaka copied Kazumi's power and would be using it to do the same thing that Kazumi does.



[x] Introduce the Pleiades to the Kures.
[X] Flying speed: Maximum (warning).
[X] Give Oriko a hand. Remind her she's stronger than she thinks.

I will not be denied.

-[X] Thief Hunting:
--[X] Tracking: Following physical or magical traces. Share your abilities and promote brainstorming.
---[x] Suggestions: utility fog for traces, Grief CSI constructs, collab with Niko and Umika, Mami's connection sense?

--[X] Searching: Search groups, base of operations, regrouping.
---[x] Sayaka and Kazumi copy the MOF and anything else you do. Mami Ribbons for expanded search construct range. Sayaka eagle eyes and clones.
--[X] Fighting: Magical detection and defenses, especially against mental/'intangible' attacks.

Expand, generalize, and make open-ended. Instead of suggesting one thing and closing, quickly suggest several things, imply continuation, and explicitly encourage brainstorming. Our votes right now don't decide what we'll be doing or offering, they provide guidance that will help the brinapilot make appropriate suggestions and proposals to foster creativity among the rest of the group. Other people are some of our biggest resources, and we (at least I) don't have a good grasp of what the other four Pleiades can do; our proposals need to be sufficiently general to capture what they can do once we learn about it.

[X] On arrival:
-[X] Introduce everyone.
-[x] Continue discussion with everyone there.
-[X] Offer help to sort Niko's lab and gather information.

Moved suggestions to middle block.

Are we going to be doing the infosharing or planning under a privacy bubble, or not worrying about it this time?
 
The only way I could see it being safe to share metaknowledge in the open like that is if we claimed it was actually from Oriko's precog.

Throwing all the voters onto the other wagon.

EDIT: Acceptable collateral damage.
Onmur threw 1 81-faced dice. Reason: safe throwing of voters Total: 58

Also, we should give our Alliance a name.

Like, Super O-Fucking-P meguca Murderball.

We've got twelve meguca.

Twelve.

Including an OP protagonist, Mami Motherfucking Tomoe Goddess of War and Cakes, A Sweet Cinammon Roll, a Main Antagonist and her Dragon...

Hijiri won't know what hit her. Or Yuuri. Or the Soujus, or Feathers, or whomever.
