[network][locked from warped_ken_amada and any character under 10] anti-evil baby task force
[ The following initial paragraph is added on December 19th, following Zenkichi's arrival. ]
NOTICE TO ALL NEWCOMERS: SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT AMADA, THE PLANNING, AND THE SITUATION EXCEPT IN THIS POST. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, ASK THEM HERE AND SOMEONE WILL ANSWER THEM. FOR FUCK'S SAKE *DON'T ASK PUBLICLY WHAT WE'RE ALL TALKING ABOUT IN LOCKED POSTS*
hey everyone (except amada and kiddos)
in case any of you aren't aware of the situation, one of the ken amadas killed falcon a couple days ago, then made a network post threatening the rest of us. so obv we need to neutralize him
i made my own post to collect ideas abt how to do that. this is part 2, and i'm gonna update this one with new info so pls save it and come back to it
THINGS WE KNOW
the most important new info is that if amada is killed, igor won't bring him back. he'll be dead forever. so killing him is back on the table in theory, though how to do that/whether we can do that is a question mark
i sent frog to ask igor & co some questions. they were p forthcoming by their standards. if anyone didn't know, they've said they didn't bring amada in. frog learned some interesting new stuff, too, such as the death thing. also: igor has less control over amada than he does over the rest of us, which we kinda already knew. when frog asked who brought amada to the velvet room if not igor, he said "he brought himself (|||❛︵❛.)" and then he didn't answer any followup questions such as, so how many other people can sense this place from the outside, and can they get in too
igor also confirmed that he would be willing to temporarily lift the restrictions on sagiri's powers to deal with amada
amada caused non-fatal harm to someone who went after him, so murder is not his *only* weapon. he can also do broken bones (* ^ ω ^) he also made it so that bone couldn't be healed, so it's a more serious issue than a lot of us are used to. that said, he's still threatened to kill any and all of us, and after falcon we should be taking that seriously
another amada wrote up this info for combat. READ THIS if you think you're likely to see combat with the psycho amada, and maybe even if you don't think so. DO NOT VOLUNTEER TO FIGHT until you've read it
IDEAS
lotus has said that he may be able to exert control over amada by receiving his name. he can't guarantee that it'll work tho
lotus also has another possible trick up his sleeve, more dangerous to everyone including him. frog and i know abt it tho so we can be thinking abt it, and if all else fails, we can all discuss it then
like i said above, sagiri is willing to use his god-level powers, though he hasn't explained what he would be doing w them
if igor agrees to unleash kira as well, kira might be able to possess amada and lower his defenses, and help get the rest of us out of danger
aragaki has brought up using amada's mother as a weak spot
we may be able to create rumors in sumaru that work to our advantage if we fight him there
shrike may be able to use psychic abilities to affect amadas state of mind. this is unpredictable and risky, probably best used if things are already looking grim
PREV IDEAS THAT NOW LOOK LESS GOOD
phoenix and renée have brought up swords that block regeneration. but they would have to strike a killing blow with the sword. to start with, other amada thought that might be impossible, and we also know now that a killing blow will be fatal no matter what weapon
maruki's actualization probably wouldn't work, and if it did it wouldn't stick, according to phoenix who has been actualized
FIGHTING
we're fucked if we don't at least get ready for a fight. it's gonna be rough (READ OTHER AMADA'S WRITEUP) but we've heard some thoughts
other amada is willing to train with us, starting in a few days
crow believes that bonds will be important in making wild cards stronger for upcoming battles
rose is going to look into items that pierce elemental resistance, including growing new plants w noir. the plants might or might not be ready in time
given the new info, i've cut some people from the fight list. i can vouch for the strength of most people who were in my palace. anyone else, i don't know as well. really think abt whether you're up to standard before volunteering. the current list of people who're up for a fight is as follows
-me
-frog
-glitch
-phoenix
-spades
-crow
-joker
-magpie
-falcon
-vampire ren
-briar
-renée
-hasegawa
-suou
-raven
-wild
-karasu
-amada
as well as the other amada, who is on another level than the rest of us
to stay on the list, train with not-psycho amada and work on defensively-oriented strats. once amada is ready to train, we'll set up a schedule
WHAT WE NEED RN (besides training + collecting items)
input on the ideas. we have a lot of "maybe it'll work"s and no "this will definitely work"s, so we need to decide on which maybes to try first and which to hold off on as a plan B, plan C, etc
to add/correct/remove ideas or volunteer/unvolunteer, reply to this post. if u wanna talk to me in person, i'll be taking care of leblanc for the next several days while frog goes on a research binge. after that, go to leblanc anyway and if i'm not already there, frog will summon me
the situation is shitty, but i don't think anyone here wants to sit around and let someone threaten our lives. if nothing else, amada seems like the kind of guy who would fuck up a little kid if they got in his way, and we have little akira and little goro wandering around. we've come together for less, some of us have killed gods, so we can come together and get rid of this threat now

reacting on 1st week of january
Rumors become reality... a cognitive world where perception shapes truth. Even the most outlandish notions can be made real, given enough belief...
The cigarette between his fingers smoldered, a faint ember glowing against the backdrop of his dimly lit quarters. His gaze flicked to the glowing screen, the words practically etched into his mind. Sumaru City... the power of rumors... weaponizing collective cognition. It was an academic quandary on the surface, yet beneath it lay something far more primal. An opportunity.
His hand trembled ever so slightly as he brought the cigarette to his lips, inhaling deeply. The smoke filled his lungs, the acrid burn grounding him even as his thoughts strayed to places he tried so desperately to keep buried.
Rumi...
His vision blurred, and for a fleeting instant, he was back in that suffocating room. The echo of his fist slamming onto Igor’s desk reverberated in his ears, the words “She’s not real” cutting through him like glass. The crumpled papers, the glow of denial, the mocking smile that had haunted him ever since—it all came rushing back, raw and vivid.
The memory twisted in his mind as his gaze returned to the thread. A plan began to take shape, half-formed yet persistent. Maruki leaned back in his chair, exhaling a stream of smoke that curled upward, dissolving into the shadows above. His lips curved into a small, almost imperceptible smile—not one of mirth, but something colder. Calculated.
His thoughts coiled inward, circling around the possibilities. If rumors could shape reality, if the collective will of others could manifest truths... then perhaps this cursed place had given him a tool he never anticipated. A way to level the playing field. A way to finally grasp what had always been out of reach.
The cigarette burned lower as the room filled with a faint haze. Maruki’s eyes remained fixed on the screen, his expression unreadable. He didn’t move, didn’t speak. He simply sat there, his mind a roiling storm behind that calm exterior.
Outside the room, the soft hum of the facility continued unabated, oblivious to the gears now turning in the doctor's head.
