mr. kaiyou asked about extra manpower. we can't really grant access to anyone other than we have now unless someone switches out, and i can't unlimit the people the doctor put on probation, but you can all consult with one another so long as you're in network areas although in some locations you may only be able to reach your actual team consultant if you were assigned one. or one another if you were not. i'd advise you to maybe try not to get put on probation on here but i can't really stop you if you do. so i'll just say that this is still being monitored and none of you are actually required to work with us, so. please allow the people who are trying to the time to do so. i did warn mr. kaiyou it's a possibility. Maurice Fitzwilliam Intern Retrspec Incorporated Please be advised monsters from the Bestiary can still be found around town. The convention center is still wrecked as well! Other damage can be found around town such as broken windows, some destroyed buildings, etc. Strangely, the monsters were courteous and left people's homes alone (for the most part.) Please note: this mingle is for Group One and Group Three members. Those of Group Two are still missing and time is still moving normally. This means they have been gone for one week as of today. Group One and Group Three members may continue to create their own posts and logs about the state of affairs, though this post is a good time to link up and discuss what's happening city-side. Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently.

Hitori Togusa Depends on what you're fighting, and who's holding the sword versus the gun. Fynn's put as many hours in on the range as a top-notch martial artist has in the dojo. Not just anybody with a gun can shoot like him. ....me, for example.
Hitori Togusa But I guess I have to ask what you teach, now?

Hitori Togusa Okay, that makes a lot of sense, much more familiar concept. Showing honor to the spirits can't ever steer you wrong. Some people call it superstitious, but paying that extra respect to the spirit, the ghost in everything? It helps.

that's true. I've been taking kendo for a decade but I'm not as good as a friend of mine. he was a pro.
I'm the history student teacher at the high school, mostly grades 10-12. I did it all last year instead of an internship credit and I really liked it, so I'm doing it again for last year of college.

I've always thought that way too. even though I was born here, my mom and grandpa taught me about honoring the spirits. I never really thought about it too hard until I started seeing them though.
it's one thing pray to them. it's another to interact with them and see how they feel about being worshiped firsthand.
and... all the other stuff you do with friends.

seraphim are people just like we are.

Hitori Togusa I hadn't thought about it that way.
Hitori Togusa So, how do they feel about it, then? I always thought that the spirits appreciated being remembered, it was needed to keep them walking in this world.

that's not an easy question to answer. seraphim have a lot to gain from humans and... a lot to lose too. if the people around them have ill will, it can hurt them.

but...

even with what's at stake, some still choose to help humans and live alongside them.

I can't tell you how they feel about it. I think it depends on who you talk to.
