[yeah he's shocked too, tbh, who just hands out their blood! who know what cursed-ass rituals could happen with that!

he's quiet a few moments, though, taking another couple bites of his chicken sandwich.]

You and Beau are the only ones with my team. She's the only one with my power. I could use it to try to hint at someone who targeted me, but it's going to be useless in trial if something happens to Beau and I on the same week, or if she's afflicted with something that makes her unable to share-- like whatever kept Asch from participating.

[ galo just did it without asking.......... but at least it ended with catching a murderer ]

[ phoenix also takes the opportunity to work at his chicken sandwich, thoughtfully. ]

There are a lot of powers that could distract her from trial, I would think. [ the asch thing was particularly yikes. ] But I'm all ears.

[unanswering]

Mine is-- listen, you really cannot tell anyone, I will never hear the end of it. I don't know that they wouldn't come after me for it.

[with that warning given, he... hesitates a moment... then finally admits:]

I'm the one who can, ah... make someone believe another will betray them.

[slobjection]

I'm pretty good at playing things close to the chest.

[ as he's probably noticed. ]

.... Huh. That's quite a power. What's the title associated with it?

[unanswering]

Clytemnestra. So you can rule the name out for anyone else.

[and, with a sigh-]

If you need to know how it looks- I used it on Akira the first week as a test, to make him think 45 would betray him. I used it this week on Agatsuma, to try to put a little distance between him and Asch. I'm intending to save it now, so-- if anything happens to me, look for someone acting suspiciously paranoid or mistrustful of someone they shouldn't, or someone entirely at random.

If you're willing to share it-- what can you do?

[ teej like: it was me, dio ]

.... Thanks for telling me. Can't say I'm a big fan of the usage, but.... I really didn't like where that Zenitsu and Asch power connection was going.

[ not so much for 45 and akira, but he understands the impulse to try and it makes sense to do it with two people like that.... ]

You can probably guess the name from the context, but my ability is purely informational. I can receive one vision about the result of an action taken by myself or someone else.

...Beau was worried about how Asch would take it. I thought it would be best if he weren't the one feeling the effects. As you can see, Asch did turn out fine, and they... did seem to distance themselves... I was hoping to avoid a rush marriage.

[it was going to be a mess with or without him, but now it's a mess with no wedding! cool.

but he tilts his head, there, contemplating phoenix's answer.]

The result of an action... yours is much more open-ended, isn't it?

[and very interesting, honestly.]

Have you used it already?

[slobjection]

I can understand that. It's been.... messy.

[ so yeah, nhs is right, and he's not mad. he more just wishes it wasn't necessary to do it, because it's just a biiiiit fucked up how people kept unloading their mind-altering curses on asch. ]

I've used it every week to try to get answers.... don't think I'm asking the right kind of questions. If you ever have suggestions, I'm open to them.

[unanswering]

What kind of questions have you already asked, using it? And what answers did you receive?

[he'll need that to work off of. sipp i'm a MOD i am DYING.]

[slobjection]

[ listen i'm not actually trying to torment you he just thinks nhs is smart and would ask this of anyone he told so cries a lot ]

So far, I've asked what would happen if I went into the fog, what would happen if we did manage to tie in the end, and what would happen if Purple's team won.

The fog was an easy one -- I just reappeared after getting lost. Tying means death for all, as we've heard from the directors. And if my team won..... well, from what I could gather, it's the same as what they've been saying. Only some can leave. The only difference was that in the vision, the ones left behind were sleeping, not dead.
