...You've got impeccable timing.

[...Sorry, Souji. 8|;]

How bad can it be? Shadows go away in the dark, its just an issue of light blockage.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

What would you call the physical manifestation of your repressed personal issues? Good news, or bad news?

[electricyousei]

.......I don't have any of those.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Are you sure?

[Nooooot liking the pause there, Ruri.]

[electricyousei]

...........Yes.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

...Then you're probably safe from encountering your own.

That just leaves everyone else... [Siiiiigh. He just got done with one of these, dammit.]

[empiricalpride]

Your partner from the ... other venue ... wishes me to share his frustrations that he once more cannot assist you with this situation. His thoughts are with you, at least.

For myself...
...frankly, I share your sentiments.

[electricyousei]

While Jung did say, "Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is." I'm fairly certain given all my conditioning that I don't actually have one. Still, I can get the phase transposition cannons online if you think that would help.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[Siiiigh.]

Sometimes I wonder if these untimely decisions are deliberate...

[empiricalpride]

It would hardly surprise me. I'm sure I heard a rather undignified noise at the first mention of this ... event.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Mine just laughed at the timing...for reasons my friend can probably tell you about.

[Was that a hint of irritation there? It sure seemed like it. But then, with a stoic expression as firm as that it's hard to tell if he's really strained about the whole situation.

Spoilers: He probably is. His Havens self, not his Hinoto-Ri-ridden self.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Not if it'll undo the work you and the others did fixing the city.

[electricyousei]

To be fair, we haven't done much work. Just panicked getting organized. Firing the phase transposition cannon would simply unmake the city. It has a blast radius that rivals the size of the American state of New Jersey.

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Seriously, how many times will Shadows be popping up in these places?

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

...Er...definitely no.

Let's try to keep the city in one piece...

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

I don't know.

[And he gets the feeling it's not going to end there. :|]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

If it's not one game, it's another.

[Sorry she can't be there for you in Hinoto-Ri.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

You'd think it'd let up, but no...

[It's okay Priestess, he'll manage...somehow... orz

He's got Kanji there. That's something, isn't it?]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

Apparently muns like the idea too much.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Maybe a little too much.

[Hint of frustration? Yes. Unlike with Even up there, he can't even do much to hide it from her.]

[gigglesnortpriestess]

I think curling up in bed seems to be a better idea.

[Because up yours muns.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Or something that isn't even remotely Shadow-related, and isn't dangerous. Whichever comes first.

[gigglesnortpriestess]

That would feel great.

[And make up time for her birthday too. stop mun]
