[OPEN] super secret meeting time!

Who: Sorey, Flynn and everyone!
Where: A (Secret!!) Palai Meeting House
When: Day 71
Open/Closed: COVEN MEMBERS ONLY!!1 No Qri Allowed (Open to All)

[Qri's call to collect as many Elto magic structures as possible did not go unnoticed--mostly because it was really, really hard to miss, with the aftereffects of the call leaving some quite shaken. A whisper of concern and suspicion has slowly been spreading since, with some coven members indifferent and others wary of complying with the request. The chatter has been quiet, but a decision should be made by the group as a whole. They're all in this together, after all.

So sometime after all the celebrations and good times, you were pulled aside and told about a meeting to figure out exactly what the coven wants to do, and given a super secret location. Or maybe you weren't told at all, but just so happened to follow the curious group of people trickling into a Palai meeting hall that the Palai had kindly allowed them the use to hold this little gathering.

The hall itself is pretty plain, and no particular person has the stage, so to speak. But Sorey and Flynn are standing in the center of the room gathering people in, and once there are enough people present then Flynn clears his throat and speaks.]


Thank you, everyone, for being able to come here today. My name is Flynn Scifo.

And I'm Sorey! Thanks for coming on such short notice.

Now, as you are all likely aware, this meeting lacked any formal announcement on the network and all of you present here today have heard of it through word of mouth. The reason for this is due to the nature of the topic we wish to discuss today: Qri. Sorey, myself and some other individuals all have our own concerns regarding her and the duty which she has given us. Today, we wish to hear your own opinions on the matter.

Maybe giving Qri the Elto bones isn't the wrong thing to do, but she hasn't given us enough information or even much of a reason to comply with her request. In my opinion it's up to the Palai people to decide what should be done with the magic structures, not us. But if we need them for a purpose and want to ask, I think they'd listen to us. So...the question is whether or not we want them for a reason, or if we should just give them back to the Palai. Or, if there's another option, we're open to hearing it.

Also, we'd like to hear your opinions on Qri herself. Do you find her trustworthy? Do you have reservations over swearing loyalty to her? The floor is open for discussion so please feel free to share any and all thoughts you have. Let us use this opportunity to ensure our next course of action ends up the correct one.

[that's all that they have to say. the floor is anyone's who wants it so come and speak your mind.]

(ooc: please feel free to tag around as you please for the discussion!)

[That makes his mouth quirk up into a little smile.]

Is that what matters to you? Getting something out of it?

[ That catches Sora a liiiittle off guard. ]

Er, that's not all I care about. [ Crossing his arms. ] But we don't know what she wants 'em for, right? If it's something bad and she ends up getting 'em, then we'll be outta luck.

[ With everything. They won't be able to use them for the barrier or anything else. At least if they use them for the barrier and then figure out what to do with them, they won't have lost as badly. He thinks.

Normally he'll give people more of a benefit of the doubt, but she did kind of kidnap them here and take things from them and stuff. And his friends are involved here so he has more to worry about than just himself. ]
rebells: inset smirk (nobelium)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-09-20 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
If we think she wants them for something 'bad', whatever that is, we should try to keep them away from her even apart from the barrier, shouldn't we?

Or are you not willing to go that far yet?

[His tone's light, but--well, he tilts his head and studies Sora with some interest.]

[personal profile] heartkey 2017-09-20 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... Okay, here comes the benefit of the doubt thing that he just can't help but apply to everyone. ]

It's not like we know it's something bad. We don't know what she wants 'em for. Maybe she can even send us home with them.

[ There's ... his tiny hopeful light shining through there. Maybe they'll get best case scenario and she'll use the power for something good. Still ... as a just in case, he still likes the idea of doing the barrier thing before they take the risk. ]

Why not ask her first, before handing them over?
heartkey: (218)

[personal profile] heartkey 2017-09-20 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
You think she'd tell us?

[ That's the new problem then. ]
rebells: side view, incredulous (disbelieving)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-09-20 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He sighs.]

So you're going to hand over some incredibly powerful magic to someone who won't even tell you what she plans to do with it, under the hope that it might be something good. Is that correct?

[It comes out a bit irritable--he's been biting this back for a bit, not just with Sora.]
heartkey: (210)

[personal profile] heartkey 2017-09-26 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Wha — Hey, that's not what I said! [ He just ... implied that it was an option, okay. He didn't say he'd actually do it! ]
rebells: exasperated, shrug (bellend)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-09-26 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[He rolls his shoulders back.]

What did you mean, then?
heartkey: (o42)

[personal profile] heartkey 2017-09-27 11:49 am (UTC)(link)
Just that we can't be sure what she wants yet, that's all.

[ Could be bad! And that'd be bad! But it could be good too?! ... Maybe?

Regardless, he's not quite dumb enough to just up and give someone something so powerful without knowing any of their motives. ]

[personal profile] rebells 2017-09-27 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shrugs; he's a little calmer now.]

That's still a reason not to give them to her, don't you think?
heartkey: (o30)

[personal profile] heartkey 2017-09-28 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sora puts a finger to his chin, before nodding. ]

Yeah. We gotta make sure it's safe first.

[ If they ... end up giving them to her at all. ]
