No objections here.

I believe we should at least try to extend an olive branch. To intrude on her Palace while she's on high alert would likely only fan the flames.

[aknightnotaprincess]

That would be for the best to try to talk with her. We should make it clear to her that we only want to help her, and not just "fix" her. And hopefully not make it easier for either of the Marukis to maniplate/brainwash her further.

[willowandoak]

yeah i want in

[shakenit]

More than a couple of people and she'll likely feel ganged up on.

More than she does already, I mean.

I'm worried she'll try to go in there alone, which would be


bad. For multiple reasons.

[unfoggedlotus]

oh god ur so right (°□°;) should someone stake out her palacr to make sure she can't get in???? does she even know her own keywords???

[shakenit]

I can't rule out the idea that she'd work them out. Or that someone well-intentioned might just give them to her.

Staking it out would only upset her more, though, if we were caught at it.

[unit_8910_wolf]

IF we get caught.

[willowandoak]

if we dont think we might get caught then we dont think shell make it in
so we might as well not do it

[unit_8910_wolf]

I don't mind waiting, given we have waited for longer.

Regarding staking her out while I am not thrilled, I am used to it. Not to mention I visit Maruki's palace regularly.

[unfoggedlotus]

violet also has a good point abt not sending too many ppl after her........do we have any volunteers to stay behind? I can stay back. 3 ppl at most I think. Violet, Drake, and Knight, maybe?

[shakenit]

I

If you think I'd be a good person for the job, then I don't mind. I feel like I'm flying blind here, but we all are, aren't we?

[And she does have a pretty good idea of what it's like to be in Midnight's shoes.]

[unfoggedlotus]

your expertise is invaluable in this moment, as crow would say!

[shakenit]

He would, wouldn't he... [She's thinking of a different Crow entirely, but.]

I'm hoping 'going in there will directly confront you with everything you're repressing' is enough to keep her from going in alone. But all I can do is hope.

[aknightnotaprincess]

I've never met her before, but I'm willing to do the job if you think I'm up for it.

[Granted she's a blunt person and doesn't have the best patience, as seen with the last conversation with Dove.]

[unfoggedlotus]

i think one, more-neutral party could help but B/c if u rlly want you can step down??? the lineup isnt hard n fast, just a thought ( >﹏<。)

[aknightnotaprincess]

Well I know I can be really blunt sometimes. It's how Ann and I met after all. But I can step down if someone else would be a better fit for this.

I still intend to help with the palace no matter what. Regardless if I go with you to talk with Midnight or not.

[unfoggedlotus]

OH WITH ME??? nonono I was thinking yall would go on your own. like without me

[aknightnotaprincess]

[Okay now she's confused.]

You're not? Am I misunderstanding the plan?

[He might wanna break it down for her. She's not stupid, but she's not a genius either.]

[unfoggedlotus]

you three talk to her together w/o me

[aknightnotaprincess]

Oh I see. Fine by me then.

[She had assumed he was going with, but maybe it's for the best. Given that this is kind of his fault. At least a little.]

[willowandoak]

sounds good
lmk what the plan is and ill be there

[unfoggedlotus]

thank u senpai (*_ _)人

[unfoggedlotus]

I think she's finally ok to be talked to!! So...your turn, team! work your magic o7

[shakenit]

You're not coming?

[herewardbound]

Whatever my personal feelings on the matter, it'd be best if I didn't show up for the outreach party. I feel like that'd send the wrong message.
