[despite tiger's words, she's frowning, looking down in thouhgt, still piecing it out.]
So, bringing us here... that's part of adjusting—or cleaning up something, like you said. Collecting the nova... is that so it can survive? Is that like... water to a plant? Or air?
[she looks up suddenly, at tiger.] The nova. There was some talk of what draws it. Do we know for sure?
Emotions, usually. So the theory is that people are getting murdered to draw nova from the strong emotions for that.
[ they make a gagging motion. ]
I don't think that's right. Just you guys being here, being yourselves, is enough to draw nova in. And yeah, killing apparently does get nova, but you also get it from doing other, non-murdery shit too. I don't think killing people would get nova any faster than not, so it's not worth it.
Apparently it's some creature that's taking it. Like a monster? We don't know what it looks like, just that it's some kind of life form.
As for losing... you guys are losing memories, but the six of us are shielding you and this place from losing things a lot faster. It's why we traded our memories in the first place--we gave the Realm them so that it could power us up more. So as long as that holds up, we shouldn't lose anything more than what's already happening.
We don't know if it has thoughts, but... I think we should just assume it's possible it does have some, and it knows exactly what it's doing, or that it's just a creature that might be doing this for some other reason.
[ they nod. ]
We have no idea where it is at the moment. But if we find that out...

Are we losing nova, somehow? In any way? Do we--do you know what made it scatter in the first place?

Does the monster have any thoughts? Or is it similarly... uncaring?
If we can find it... remove it... that's our solution.

If it's taking the nova, then we... can't we track the nova? We can follow where it goes.
I want to find it. I don't know what I'll be able to do, then, but... [she looks at Tiger.] What do you think? Where do we start?

You're pretty smart.

I... thank you?

It could mean that we all finally focus on what really matters. [instead? of?? MURDER???]
no subject
Yeah. I'm sure there's people who haven't bothered to ask us anything, so that'll work.

Thank you, Tiger.
I'm not certain if we should be doing well in the ranks, or not, but... I'm glad I'm on your team.
