[PHOENIX]

[once you pass through the clocktower door, you find yourself in a closed room complete with a central table, notebooks and pens, and a white board for strategizing]

[a digital clock on the wall counts down to the end of the game. time to get to work, right?]

Oh, I get it. She knows you're strong and capable.
strikingchords: (your bones have been my bedframe.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-04-30 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
It does not mean she would not defend us, should Echidna agree.

We cannot know.
mountanoffensive: (we are all just fragile things)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-04-30 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I still think there's a chance Echidna might want to protect Bugbear because of last time. But they might also assume nobody else would target them because of that.
strikingchords: (549)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-04-30 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
It matters little, unless we intend to target them ourselves.

Without a reason they would target us in return, it seems unwise.

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-04-30 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm just running down our options based on what we know since this basically rules Bugbear out.
strikingchords: (too hot to handle.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-04-30 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
As I said. Little enough to discuss.
mountanoffensive: (this is kind of a lot)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-04-30 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess we basically have an agreed-upon target then.
strikingchords: (entertain the daydream.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-04-30 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Without strong reason otherwise, yes.

If Wei Ying thinks Basilisk likely to target us, I will trust him.
strikingchords: bb (scrawling it forever.)

Master Lunettes did not disagree.

Yeah, and his information about planning the last time basically further supports things.
strikingchords: (inside down and upside out.)

[he'll just nod...?]

[Just going to practice levitating this pen for distraction...]

I hate waiting during these things...

I suggest meditation. Do you know of it?
mountanoffensive: (snort)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-05-01 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Not really.

[Slowly spinning pen]

Close your eyes and quiet your mind.
mountanoffensive: (we are all just fragile things)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-05-01 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Closing her eyes at least]

How do you quiet your mind?
strikingchords: (right before your eyes.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-05-01 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Do not attend to your thoughts. Let them pass from you.
mountanoffensive: (that's something we'll get to later)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-05-01 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
This was a lot easier when I was just a normal horse...
strikingchords: (reach.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-05-01 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
Hm.

[honestly that checks out]
mountanoffensive: (one careful step at a time)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-05-01 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Do you have any tips?
strikingchords: (always been the tower.)

[personal profile] strikingchords 2022-05-01 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Envision yourself as a stone, or lake. A surface across which shadows may pass without effect.
mountanoffensive: (wind on your mane)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-05-01 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Okaaay think of myself as a rock or water. I can do this.

[HOPEFULLY SHE CAN DO IT!]

[She is very bad at clearing her mind...]

Come on, water, splish splash, cold, wet stuff...
