[In theory, Sio was trying to just think this at Hijikata, but she's kind of bad at the focus thing when she's actually freaking out a bit. So. Hi everyone.]


H-Hijikata-sama... I'm in Greengard with Souji-san. Your Souji-san. A-and think we've got a problem...

Something's really really wrong with him. He's acting super weird, um, I mean, more weird than before, and scary, I mean, different-scary... we're here with Fang-san and we're in this spooky forest and I don't know why he wanted us to come here but I think there's zombie unicorns and that's kind of freaking me out.

I know he's an Infiltrator now b-but... do we... do anything?

I-it's not that I want to! But if he dies then, he'll just reappear in Liminal Space, right? But, if he kills someone else here who isn't a Traveller... then they'd really be dead.

[It seems pretty clear to her, really.]

[fuckingibuki]

So what? You'd still kill him!

[Yeah, that all does make a certain amount of sense, but now Ibuki is upset and logic is not at the top of his priority list.]

[moredakka]

It's not killing if he doesn't actually die!

[She is very particular on this point okay. She's a hero. No killing no matter how big the gun is.]

[fuckingibuki]

Except that he would, even if it was just temporary! Besides, if you did do it, who's to say he wouldn't be pissed at you later? Okita's not exactly the forgiving type.

[Dammit dammit dammit just don't shoot him at all.]

[moredakka]

[Okay that is something she hadn't thought of. Yikes.]

Y - you think he'll go after me when the Jaunt is - but, we're a team! I'm only doing this to protect the others!

[fuckingibuki]

[Yes, good, listen to Okita's sometimes successful conscience.]

Well, figure out another option so you won't have to find out first-hand what he'd do.

[moredakka]

[And she was so set on hero-worshipping you guys...]

Does he... uhh... is there anything that always calms him down? Like a... song or... something?

[Look, dude, shooting people is what she does. It is what she is qualified for. And that is the very opposite of not provoking people. So excuse her if she doesn't have the first idea what another option might entail.]
