Daiyousei Quest - Greater Fairy: Part 20

//By the way, who's in favor of going back in time in case neither of the two other miracles work for at least Prime?

[Monarda]

Dai-chan Prime:

>After trying every one of those ideas, warp to that bathroom that Rikako was in before, on a clear spot that we remember, then proceed to head to Rikako's room to search for them and the invisible assailant.
>Ponder how did they find Alterdai-chan 2 even though Koishidai-chan was completely unaware of her being there.

//Any objections ?

//Let's all throw in our thoughts for the time thing.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Yes, objection

//Create a temp clone instead, or unfreeze time an have another clone re-freeze at the exact same moment ,we can't risk losing Prime.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//I also would like to say that once this is over, we should use a miracle to lock Koishi out of ever using fusion again, since she has proven to be very irresponsible with it, even after getting the ability to think for herself.

//Also, I think we might have an alternative to reversing time. If we can somehow trick Koishi into using Rikako's power, then she will de-power herself and lose all the power she gained from us. Of course, that is much riskier and harder to pull off than just killing past KoishiDai before she convinces Koishi to re-open. (Killing her would be better than just leaving with her, since we don't want Koishi to think we left her outta the blue.)

Prime:
>Well skip that one and try everything else.

Prime:
>If that used a tiny amount of faith, use faith to permanently prevent anyone (excluding ourselves) from warping us unless we allow it.
>If that used a tiny amount of faith, use faith to make it impossible for others to forcibly fuse us without our consent.
>If all three of those permanent miracles used a tiny amount of faith, use faith to update RuuDai with the same properties as Prime. Note the amount of faith this uses.
>If this used a small enough amount of faith such that we can update the entire hive mind with these properties and still have faith leftover, do so.
>Otherwise, update until we have roughly 50% faith remaining, priority being: Secunde, Dai 2, Sendai, MoriDai, Tendai, Troublemakerbugs, everyone else.
>Once all the above are parsed, resume time.

> You attempt to use faith to prevent anyone aside from you, Prime, from warping you unless you allow it. Some faith seems to be used up for this.
> You attempt to use faith to make it impossible for others to forcibly fuse us without our consent. You feel a bit of tingling over your body, and a massive amount of your faith is used up.
> You suddenly feel as if you can't breathe. No air is entering your body, and none is leaving it. This doesn't usually happen in stopped time.

[Kilgamayan]

> Do we feel as if we're being forcibly choked, perhaps?

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//Well... I guess we're a god now... What a great time for that switch-over to happen with no warning...  :V

//Also, please correct the wording parser, I worded it so that Others can't fuse us into THEM without consent. We can still fuse people with US regardless of consent.

Prime:
>Resume time.
>Quickly use Sanae magic to stabilize us if our life energy is fading.

[Neovereign]

> Do we feel as if we're being forcibly choked, perhaps?

> You do not.
> You're starting to run low on breathe. You didn't expect, nor were you prepared for this...

//Well... I guess we're a god now... What a great time for that switch-over to happen with no warning...  :V

//Also, please correct the wording parser, I worded it so that Others can't fuse us into THEM without consent. We can still fuse people with US regardless of consent.

Prime:

//Worded as read.
> You resume time and try to use Sanae magic to do so. Except, your life energy isn't fading. You're only running low on breath.

//Laptop is dying, will have to turn it off. I'm switching to mobile now, and I'm slow when typing on mobile. Please allow me more time than normal to get a response in between parsings. Starting from this post.

MoriDai:
>"Miss Kanako, does using up too much faith as a goddess make you short on breath?"
>Think this if we're also winded and can't get the words out.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//Worded as read.

If that used a tiny amount of faith, use faith to make it impossible for others to forcibly fuse us without our consent.

> You attempt to use faith to prevent others from fusing with you without your consent. You feel a bit of tingling over your body, and a massive amount of your faith is used up.

//Those wordings mean completely different things...

[Kilgamayan]

Prime:

> Don't panic. There are plenty of other us'es that can figure this out and save us.

2 (T):

> Gesture at our own leg within the thoughtscape and smile at thoughtscape Hamiya.
> "Go ahead and find out, if you want!"

[Monarda]

Rikadai-chan:

>We there yet ?
>If so: "So where do you store them ?"

Koadai-chan:

>We okay ?

Sumidai-chan:

>We okay ?

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//By the way nobody answered me about the time stop plan and locking koishi out of fusions permanently... (the latter is going to be difficult to do thanks to the unexpected faith loss... especially since we still need to survive the ripple effect too with the miracles we have left...)

//Also if we weren't a good fairy we could totally use koishi as our scapegoat for Tenshi

[Monarda]

>Well with the time travel plan, wouldn't we retrieve that same faith again ? Since Time Travel Mechanics.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//Also if these miracles on just Prime are taking so much, then why did all that faith shit Kilga pulled on Youmu even go through? Since I would argue that permanent indigestion, among other things done to her with our faith, is practically on par with all those miracles.

//Is Kilga the FO out of all of us? Since that would explain why all his recent questionable things were even allowed to begin with. Next time we should have him do the miracle commands just to get them to succeed *shot*

[Kilgamayan]

//Sorry about not responding to the time travel thing, I've been phone browsing for the last four hours or so and will be phone-only and heavily distracted until tomorrow night.

//I have reservations about time traveling to change something that would be noticeably different in the present. Everything else we've done has been done properly so that the present wasn't actually meaningfully affected.

//What I might be more interested in is going back in time and watching AlterDai 2 from a safe, hidden location, to see if we can catch the responsible party in the act. That would help solve the puzzle without altering the present.

//(Also what is an FO .-.

[Monarda]

//(Also what is an FO .-.

//I think he means an First Officer, he basically complained that no matter what you try to pull off we always let you do it, and it also always works.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//FO = Favored One
//Literally a person the GM allows to stretch the rules and get away with more things than the other players because of personal favoritism, so pretty much what raf said.

//I mostly meant it in jest, though I do admit it does feel that way sometimes.

//Well Sakuya managed to do something that noticeably affected the present, so we might be able to as well.

//Also, if we go with your plan Kilga I say we should also take both the missing clones and abduct them from the past and to the future, since that would save both clones and produce an identical effect in the past. Of course this will require use of two clones, one to catch koishi and one to abduct the other clones

[Kilgamayan]

//That's fine by me, though it's worth remembering that technically, we don't actually know in-game that KoishiDai is gone, since the connection was severed.

//Also my shenanigans always succeed because everything I do is good and right and the best.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//I was talking about RikakoBug and her host as well as AlterDai 2.

//Also KoishiDai reconnected to the hivemind shortly before she disappeared. So we do know

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//Also if we do the abduction idea, we might need one clone per clone, since all of them went missing at different times.

[Kilgamayan]

//I thought she disconnected again afterward? If not, then that's good, though I'm still not quite ready to investigate her, in the event the Komeijis are indeed behind this (they're my current top suspect but I'm hardly set on them definitely being the culprits after thinking about it some). If we catch someone else in the act, then we can save KoishiDai.

[Monarda]

//No she didn't, after informing Prime, she was to sever the connection again as seen here:

Koishidai-chan:

>Why did we lie down ?
>Attempt to temporarily recontact Prime by the hivemind to inform her of our weird feeling and of the date scheduled for tomorrow, then sever our connection afterwards.

Dai-chan Prime:

>After Koishidai-chan severs her connection, stop time and warp to a clear spot on the room, then examine both her and Koishi.

[Neovereign]

//@Naz. Fix'd the issue for you.  BV
Post processing...

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

//noticed another possible misreading.

//the miracle to prevent warping meant "nobody can use their warp on US". Not "nobody can warp in general aside from us" again I worded it specifically to mean the former.

//just bringing it up in case the misreading is the sole reason why that miracle failed.

//of course if the net result is the same, then I'm fine with just the last miracle succeeding, unless we can end up with both while having roughly the same amount of leftover faith.


//I'd quote and boldline but quoting on a phone is annoying.

> You try keep your calm for now. It's just someone who knows your memories and might have your abilities, as well as being able to act without you knowing and read minds, as far as you know.
