[ SWEET NIMOOONNNAAA. ]

Aww, she looks really cool. And you're taking really good care of her, huh?

[hanaban]

Mmhm! If anything happens to her, I'm going to destroy the person who did it.

[ballies]

... Card her, real her, or both?

[hanaban]

Both.

[ballies]

[ hmmm. that's fair. ish. ]

Don't do something that would get you hurt though. She'd be mad at you if you did.

[hanaban]

Yeah, she already beat that into me. And Reigen, and everybody else...

[ ugh!!!! everybody treating him like the kid he is /: ]

[ballies]

I think she'd say that to everyone important to her. No one wants to see someone they care about hurt. Whether they're younger or older.

[hanaban]

I guess. But you can't help that, when the world is out to hurt people.

[ballies]

[ … sigh. ]

Well. You’re not wrong here. But getting involved with the problem and ending up in that execution arena would make a lot of people sad, you know?

[hanaban]

On which side?

[ballies]

On which side…?

[hanaban]

[ ... ]

I've sorta been thinking about it. People don't want to fight their friends, or teammates, but I... would have been willing to do that, so they don't have to. Is that why I haven't been picked yet?

[ballies]

Picked… to wake up on a Thursday, you mean?

[hanaban]

Sunday! In the arena!

[ the gladiator battles, Tama!! Hanako's all about striking down villains, he'd be so good at it! ]

[ballies]

It does seem to be totally random, doesn’t it?

[ hmmm. ] I don’t know how it works — I’ve never been up there, but I’ve not thought much about going up there in the first place. Do you just wish really hard, or is it looking for whoever will hurt the “villain” the most?

[hanaban]

I don't know. I've wished really hard every week.

[ Ever since Mika. Ever since he failed to save Mika. ]

Hey, Tama. What would you do if it were you and Ryuki up there? You'd refuse to do anything, wouldn't you? I thought it would've gone like that.

[ballies]

... I don't really know.

Maybe it's something I'd have to think of if it ever happens. I don't think I'd know until I was up there in the moment. [ she knows what the outcome would be, she wouldn't let it be any other way. it's just -- what would be the kindest way to achieve it? ]

[hanaban]

[ There's no kindness in murder. ]

... I hope that never happens.

[ballies]

[ no kidding. ]

Yeah. Me too. Wouldn't it be nice if it just stopped?

[hanaban]

Yeah...

[ It'd be nice if the world were good and just, too ]

So! We've gotta get on with destroying the moon! Do you know a lot about explosives, Tama?

[ballies]

I thought the moon was humanoid sometimes? Could we capture him-- maybe extract some information first?

[hanaban]

Huh?

[ HELLO?? THAT'S NEWS TO HIM ]

What do you mean the moon's humanoid sometimes?

[ballies]

I talked to Phoenix -- I asked them how the moon attacked this city, and they told me "It did fall, and it did attack us - the latter just happened to be in a different form." There's a lot of talk about a man in white as well?

It could be they're not one and the same, but they're definitely connected. The man was seen only when the moon fell. When the leaders were done fighting him, the moon returned to the sky.

[ me going back through my threads like damn gmail spam filter got so many of these audience threads and killed them. ]

[hanaban]

Oh... I heard about the man in white too. He wears a fancy top hat, and could shoot lasers.

[ He was thinking maybe the moon was the man's ???space station??? or something, the idea of him being able to transform into it never crossed his mind ]

Hah... I really want to draw him out so I can beat him up.

[ballies]

Yeah, that's the description I've heard too.

[ the moon.... space station.... could you beliiieeevvve they put a man on the moon (man on the mooOOOoOOOoOOn) ]

It sounds like he caused a LOT of descruction, and death, last time he was here.
