100. Centripetal [action/voice]

[corrinesbell]

[Life's funny sometimes.]

[Sheena's moving through the forest using the trees. She remembers that wolf giving her warnings and all that, but it was a long time ago and someone made a good point about the people who got returned - and about New Feathers, but there hadn't been any - being at the mercy of whatever was going on in there. ...So she may not have stopped patrolling for more than a day or two. Particularly after she remembered she could defend herself much better from a distance now.

It's not her fault when one of the branches cracks under her feet as she stops to gauge her next move. She reaches almost calmly for another branch or two to catch herself on, but they're all thin and twiggy. One of them snags her glove and it slips off as the branch and Sheena take a gravity ride to the dirt and leaves below.

And if it stopped there everything would be mostly okay.

When her back strikes the ground, it goes through it and continues on, into the bottom of a pitfall. Winded, she takes a minute or two to catch her breath.]

Not again.

[In the fall, the journal ended up nearby, half-buried but open. ...Why not?]

[[ooc: ...What else is there to do with Sheena's 100th post?]]

I don't think one side can exist without the other.

[Action]

[fortunefail]

Even so, Ratatosk is a threat who needs to be controlled. If there's a chance to seal him away, I'll take it.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

[can't let you do that, Star Fox Yuan]

And everyone else'll try to stop you.

[Action]

[fortunefail]

You do understand I'm talking about sealing away his vicious side, don't you?

[Who cares about that side of Ratatosk anyway? So long as it doesn't affect the Ginnungagap, nobody will miss him. Yuan has no problems with Emil.]

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

But you basically just said you don't care if it kills him as a side effect.

[Action]

[fortunefail]

I also said that if it were to kill Emil, we wouldn't be turning to that method in the future. If it kills Ratatosk... [Uh. Hm. What happens if you kill one side of a personality here? Interesting question.] ... Well, this is Luceti. I doubt he'll be gone for too long.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

You got proof that it works in the future?

[Action]

[fortunefail]

That's why I intend to learn more about it.

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

Then you're gonna wanna talk to...Raine or Zelos.

[Action]

[fortunefail]

[He'd rather not talk to Zelos unless it's absolutely necessary, but the other option surprises him a little. Wasn't Raine taken from even earlier than he was?]

... Raine knows more about Ratatosk?

[Action]

[corrinesbell]

She knows about all that ancient stuff. [and we are pretty sure we talked with her about it before]

[Action]

[fortunefail]

Then, I'll ask her about it.
