Kingdom Hearts: The Lights of the Multiverse Redux [No Longer Full]

Sorry, just can't think of anything I want to do right now. Move on if you'd like.

@Gentlemanvaultboy

Thanks! Will give you something to do next post, then.

Kingdom Hearts: The Lights of the Multiverse Redux [No Longer Full]

Has @Gentlemanvaultboy dropped out?

Alrightie then. Let's see what we have here.<Snipped quote by Masaki Haruna>In the previous system, you classified Kyou's magic as Igyo, hence it was a mutation. This means whatever kitsune attributes she has are permanent, passive, and not deactivatable. Otherwise, it would have classified as Henkei. With the sudden change in system, only the classification was changed and nothing was mentioned about her magic gaining the ability to be turned off or on. So, yeah.

As for speed, I'd say Akasha is the fastest. Kyou an Nihiri would probably be next to her.

@January@Letter Bee Is it fine for Mikhail to conclude that Donovan caused the unnatural calm that he had felt? Sure, nothing wrong with that. Mikhail can believe whatever he wants to. And Banjo also noted that the sigils were giving off enough illumination to reveal their faces and whatnot.

However, Letter Bee on the other hand, as the narrator for that character, shouldn't write in a way that makes it appear that he already knows this information. I'm probably not making sense, so I'll try to come up with an example.

• "Mikhail was certain that it was Donovan that was causing all of this" - This is definitely fine. Right?
• Mikhail's voice lost its bite, due to the fact that he was unable to muster much passion in the unnatural calm given by Donovan - This is probably not okay. Instead of Mikhail just assuming that Don was the cause, the narrator actually confirms it. I mean, I don't think that's part of your job description.

Anyway, I'm well aware that I may be wrong, so call me out if you think so. At least I can explain the reasons behind my decision.

Anyway, off to do some updates.

<Snipped quote by Scio>

To add a bit more to it, while it is not technically meta-gaming (or at least a major game-breaking one) because what was written does not affect the other characters in any way. But luke Scio said, an author's narration should usually be based on the character's point of view, not information given out of character. And this is where exactly we might be having an issue here. When writing a post, you should exclude anything being said OoC (except plans and cooperative ideas) and focus more on the aspect viewed by the character being played.

@Riffus Maximus

So, keep RP narration IC. All right, that works.

Four Winds

@January, All right, let's wait for Scio, but I think that this time, you're splitting hairs.

@January:

Donovan clapped a rough hand on Glasses’, no, Nico’s shoulder to indicate that he wouldn’t accept an objection. Donovan’s rune was almost blinding now, illuminating both their faces to display the steel and excitement in Donovan’s cocky grin. He wasn't sure why Nico chose to buff Donovan of all people, but he didn't care either.

“We stay together now. It’s our best chance to show that Varus prick what we can do.”

Beside him, Fancy Smoke got jumped by Panther Girl. He ignored them and walk past, expecting Nico to follow him. Thanks to his shining rune and the flaring lights of Nico’s sigils, he easily found his way through the dark fog. With this energy, he felt unstoppable. His aura touched pretty much everyone and he could feel its gradual effects already taking its hold on people.

@banjoanjo

Nico and Donovan's runes/sigils were glowing bright enough to illuminate their way through the fog. I think that's enough IC evidence for both Nico having a connection (not necessarily amplification) to Donovan's magic and the aura of calm being sourced from Donovan.

Four Winds

@Letter Bee

Also, Mikhail is suddenly way too sure that the unnatural calm is from Donovan. He can highly suspect, or he can surmise this after Don starts telling everyone to shut up, but to immediately know Don's the cause with all the shit going around?

That's iffy, at best, to me.

@Scio can make the last call on that, but I'm on the fence about it, personally.

@January

Didn't Banjo's post show a rune on Donovan's (Edit: Chest) glowing? I'll bring up the relevant posts.

Four Winds

@Letter Bee

Mikhail does not know that Nico's magic amplifies/diminishes others' magic. Please edit that part of the post.

As for whether Nico cares all that much about what Mikhail does given that Nico defied his own hatred of Donovan to do this, I'll let you know soon.

@January

Ah, this part:

"Don't hurt Nico," Mikhail warned. "Don't do anything bad to him or I will follow through on my own threat." Mikhail's voice lost its bite, due to the fact that he was unable to muster much passion in the unnatural calm given by Donovan and amplified by Nico. And because Mikhail's voice lost its bite, he wasn't able to stop Donovan from shouting to the rest of the class to calm down - then again, that part was agreeable. Then came something that, without passion to blind him, was actually a sound proposition from the bullying redhead.

Will edit.

@banjoanjo@January

Yes, Donovan managed to render Mikhail cooperative. I hope Nico doesn't feel betrayed or anything.

Mikhail Suburov-Tachibana

Mikhail found himself out of his depth. Fog billowing all around him, a girl changing into a panther, and the smoker manifesting arms of darkness and choosing to fight against said panther. And the worst of all is...Nico was rushing towards his position, towards where the bullying redhead was!

"Nico!" Mikhail shouted, rushing to interpose himself between Donovan and Nico, hoping to protect the latter before the former did anything to him. Then, he would notice the other boy's hand, the one with sigils, glowing, and, a sudden feeling of calm overtaking him, a feeling of calm that was obviously unnatural, although he didn't know what the source was until he saw Donovan's rune glowing as well. Hurrying towards the two, Mikhail would have snatched Nico from the bullying redhead, but the calm was taking over now, a calm that allowed him to register what Donovan said:

“We stay together now. It’s our best chance to show that Varus prick what we can do.”

@banjoanjo

"Don't hurt Nico," Mikhail warned. "Don't do anything bad to him or I will follow through on my own threat." Mikhail's voice lost its bite, due to the fact that he was unable to muster much passion in the unnatural calm given by Donovan. And because Mikhail's voice lost its bite, he wasn't able to stop Donovan from shouting to the rest of the class to calm down - then again, that part was agreeable. Then came something that, without passion to blind him, was actually a sound proposition from the bullying redhead.

“You guys are going after Varus, right?” he asked and proudly indicated at the light on his chest, “Can’t say that I’d be much help if you want me to do a sneak attack, but I’d gladly distract him long enough for you to kick his ass.”

@banjoanjo

"I can help," Mikhail offered. "I have an aura that can grant some resistance to Magic. But again, don't hurt Nico, especially after this" A pause.

"Also, my unarmed combat skills are related to grappling and wrestling, what is yours'? Anyway...my name is Mikhail Suburov-Tachibana; tell me your own name whenever you can."

Donovan and Nico actually make a fine team.

Also, Don having leadership qualities...nice.
