[Mostly Open] So we'll press, and press 'til you can't take it anymore!

[groupiedrifter]

CHARACTERS: Precursors and you. And Eventually Newton. Hopefully!
LOCATION: A holding room in Ximilia Station.
DATE: Est. two days post-mission, after the kaiju is defeated and the orb is retrieved.
CONTENT: The precursors are revealed — and are finally removed from Newt's mind.
WARNINGS: Possession and the bodily autonomy issues that come with that. More will be added if necessary!

Closed and opened starters will be added as I go, which will be announced on plurk! But if you don't use plurk or would rather keep an eye out by email/tracking, feel free to use the tracking option and mark to receive notifs any new top level comments posted to this log! The log will involve an open starter to visit the precursors where they're cuffed/contained in the room, so stay tuned.

Also no rush once the open starters are posted!

Feel free to focus on the player plot log first and come back to this later.

CLOSED STARTER | THE DOCTOR
DARKLING'S TOP LEVEL | WHILE NEWT WAS SLEEPING...
OPEN STARTER | THE PRECURSORS, REVEALED
CLOSED FINAL CONCLUSION | THE PRECURSORS, REMOVED

What more would you have me say?

（ he raises an eyebrow at newt's... strange enthusiasm. the impact of the ōtsutsuki on his world cannot be understated, but he knows precious little — their influence seems largely to have passed from public consciousness, and only relics like the stone tablet in the nakano shrine remain. ）

Literally anything. I love hearing about this kind of stuff! Besides, it's good to know for whatever we try to do with this chakra business. I've never interacted with it, so it pays to be as educated as possible! Right?

['Because he's a nerd' is the answer, Itachi.

... Ugh, he's eating his veggies now. Damn healthy foods.

(... it's good though, he's just bitter about healthy food, who isn't????)]

（ newt receives an attachment file. it's ... long, academically dry, and details various types of chakra (the various elements, as well as yin and yang forms) and their applications.

look, itachi is also a fucking nerd, of course he just has this on hand. ）

Check your earpiece.

[He lights up like a kid/bull in a toy/china shop, thank you, Itachi.]

Hell yeah...! There's so much here; I see we've got ourselves a real academic kinda mind here. Could use a little flare to the wording, but y'know, we can't all be storytellers around here. [He takes a big bite of food, stores it in his cheek to add:] Pulling my old professor job card, I give you a passing grade on this one.

（ newt just gets... a long, exasperated look.

nothing else.

no other reaction.

just a Look.

please return to your veggies, newt. ）
