[ a catch??? ]

No, there's nothing I need. [ a laugh. ] Even if there was, I doubt I'd be able to ask for it, in this place. Just let me know when you're coming, and it's fine to share.

[tactic]

That's very generous of you, thanks.

[ You're my new best friend now. ]

I'll be sure to find some way to return your kindness.

[naginota]

[ just dips his head in acknowledgment. you're welcome buddy! ]

Don't trouble yourself too much, Aventurine-dono. Sharing our resources will be important if we're going to find our way home.

[tactic]

[ Everyone is so friendly here... ]

We're of the same mind. Having a common goal certainly has everyone cooperating with each other.

[naginota]

Isn't that how allies are often made in battles across the world? Common goals will always bring people together, no matter what those goals may be.

In our case, survival makes for a very compelling one.

[tactic]

It does. I wonder if our captors considered that when placing us all here like this. They'd have to know we'd start working together.

[naginota]

The overseers said something about removing your abilities, didn't they?

[ "your" because his only power is his strength! that couldn't possibly be nerfed, could it (: ]

It's possible that they expected that would solve the problem on its own. It has already discouraged some of the others.

[tactic]

Strange, then. That we'd be given new powers here.

[naginota]

Death-dono told me that was a side effect of the ritual. Something unexpected, so it wasn't part of their plan.

[tactic]

Wonderful. We'll have to capitalize on this opportunity.

[naginota]

It may be difficult, if we're only allowed to share these powers with three others each week.

[ sounds like a nightmare to coordinate, actually, and iwatooshi absolutely doesn't have the patience for it. someone else can handle that. ]

But if there is a way to use them to help find a way home, I'd like to.

[tactic]

[ Smiles! He likes your spirit, Iwatooshi. ]

As would I. [ Holds out his hand. ] The best of luck to both of us.

[naginota]

[ a handshake! how fun. he shifts the naginata to his left hand to accept! ]

I have the feeling we'll make very good comrades, Aventurine-dono. I look forward to it.

[tactic]

[ SHAKES HANDS

THIS IS A GOOD PLACE TO END WE WILL MEET AGAIN ]
