I...actually agree with that reasoning. I think the rationale for that line by NSMS was to cleanse gems directly to prevent misuse of our seed cleansing?

Yeah.

"Why travel 600 miles every week when we can get as many grief seeds as we can and do it once every two months?" Or the like.

Argument being that it creates demand for grief seeds, not reduces, and rocks the boat with Tokyo, plus makes our group more likely to be lied about to keep as private resource so others don't go seed-hunting.

Frankly, I have no problem offering gems now and seeds later, when we've talked with them more and decided on what exactly we're planning to attach as strings.

I make that 7/11 CG/NSMS.
 
I'm getting kind of lost. What's wrong with "Hey, we'll clean your gems and seeds when you need it, under the condition that we can be friends and you don't abuse the priviledge" and then smiling and flaring Witch senses with the most innocent face?

It's not devious enough. Clearly if your solution is that simple, you haven't done enough shadowrunning yet.

We could put a limit on how many seeds we cleanse per week. Maybe twice the number of people in their group or something. This gives them abit of a safety net and a benefit to making that journey every week, but it doesn't give them enough to let them just spam magic with impunity.

Frankly, I'm mainly opposed to cleaning the soul gems because that makes them overtly depenedant on us an encourages them to either ignore our services completely or move into Mitakihara to get easier access to soul gem cleansing. Neither of them are paritcularly ideal outcomes.

I considered 'leper colony' instead, but there was something a little more hilariously tragic about a third-degree burn clinic having a beauty pageant. But yes, Cripple Feels Simulator did occur to me.

We're just starting with the soul gems. Once we've established relations with them, we'll offer the grief seeds.
 
It would probably be better to limit the number of seeds we will cleanse. Enough to never have fear of running out, but no more. Eliminate the problem of escalating hoarding.
 
Funny thought

Sabrina (thinking): what is this...feeling? Is this....respect? I finally get some goddam respect? Oh Em Gee! What do what do? Gotta stay cool, cool like a senpai. Gotta channel the Mami.

Sabrina: Cough cough, ah yes. My dear, would you like to come over and talk this over with some cake and tea?

also:

Sabrina: When you say "Kuvira's down" do you mean she agrees with us?
Chouko: No I mean she is knocked out.
Sabrina: No, no, wait, you mean she is break dancing in the middle of the street?
Chouko: No, she is kissing the pavement. Cracking it even.
Sabrina: You mean she is a hipster?
Chouko: What? Are you brain damaged? NO!
Sabrina: She's depressed?
Chouko: NO! SHE IS UNCONSCIOUS, SLEEPING, IN A COMA.
Sabrina: She ded?
Chouko: NO! BUT SHE WILL BE! ARRRGGGGG

To be completely fair to Umika, that particular incident happened after her editor basically took her book, rewrote large sections of it (screwing up a major running theme in the process), and refused to get it published under her name (instead crediting it to an idol singer).

But fuck fairness, she's a fourteen-to-fifteen year old girl and the fact that an editor was willing to look her shit over at all is farther than about 99% of aspiring authors get.

I'd like to see the editing that was apparently bad enough that this girl saw no recourse other than to sell her soul to escape it.

Edit after seeing explanation: Oh, ok. That makes more sense. I was just picturing Enoby Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way being her beta or something.

To be even more fair, Kyubey doesn't tell these girls the fine print at all. So instead of going 'hrrm what wish would be meaningful and important enough that I'd sell my soul for it?' they go 'Free wish, no consequences? Fuck yeah!'
