[Event Post]

[ogrewarrior]

A not needed to understand this post short story, but maybe to understand other character's actions. Quarter recent events, three fourths flashback. A Kazback.

Kaz has standing business! Thankfully, this is because he is very busy and has a tendency to drag his feet and not because the person writing him disappears for half a week at a time.

He's either:

1.) Hanging out on the Barian island. More books, more relaxation. Make sure he doesn't get that in.

2.) On LDS' campus, waiting for some of his 'special classes' to start. And maybe congratulate some people in person, since they've done so well.

3.) Maybe he's at your house after some agonizing soul searching, dressed in a suit, trying really hard to look professional. ... it's very hard for him.

Essentially, the only things that can truly destroy them are our Weapons, or specific abilities, like Tsukumo's overlaid form.

That's because, at the root, it's the Astrals' power that counteracts them.

... Of course, relatedly, things like "Rank-Up-Magic" also were the Astrals' power, at it's root conception. But I don't know how far that goes.

"Hrmph. Of all the times that stupid number would've come in handy...

Ah, well. I'll figure out something. Maybe a good dark pact or three'll turn this out right."

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

I'd recommend against making any "dark pacts".

Re: [1]

[ogrewarrior]

"It's working out for some people."

He chuckles.

"... honestly, I'll figure something out. Maybe not that, but something."

[tachyonparticle]

Just as long as you don't get the idea to make any deals with those creatures. Or use them as tools.

It never goes well.

"Oh, hell no. Not THOSE. Like, normal dark pacts with normal fiends."

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

... What classifies as a "normal fiend" to you.

Re: [1]

[ogrewarrior]

"Oh, you know.

... The Fabled, I guess? My little buddies."

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

... I guess that's technically not the same. The fiend-types are their own different hierarchy, correct?

"Yeah, from what I'm getting from these demons and what I know of my adventures in the twelve dimensions."

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

At least they can be reasoned with. They're a species who has built up their own worlds, who rule over their own people and have their own agreements.

*swing, swing*

Of course, personally, I still wouldn't make pacts with anything, but we've communed with many different groups in our time.

Re: [1]

[ogrewarrior]

"Maybe a commune is what I need then.

... and these demons have... none of that?"

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

The demons are generally only concerned with two things: Territory, and a food source.

That's about it.

Re: [1]

[ogrewarrior]

"... Jeez. What pieces of work."

He hooms.

"You guys have access to huge fonts of knowledge, yeah?"

Re: [1]

[tachyonparticle]

Yes. Not only do we have our own experiences-- though Failnaught's would be the most complete of us... We also have the facilities, where the Legendary Numbers are housed.

However, some of the facilities are... defunct.
