[In the background of this voice broadcast is some soothing guzheng music being played from a secondary speaker, like this. This is not for you, this is for him to destress, but you’re welcome to enjoy it nonetheless.]

Hello everyone. Has anyone else set up safe… safe-ish… safer? -well, so-called “safe spots” outside faction headquarters?

I’ve been doing what I can to fortify my apartment building, and I’ve seen yokai take shelter here when they’re caught out by something. Perhaps it would help all of us to know the locations of potential shelters around the city? Or a sign that one’s nearby, like colored lights or a flag.

[A pause.]

I hope everyone’s doing okay. If anyone has something they can’t get off their mind… you could go on an anonymous account and say it. It might help. We’re here to listen.

That's true. How unfortunate.

[Sigh. He doesn’t disagree, though.]

private

That's a headache for tomorrow. For now, let's just get through this mess.

[ Privately, he'll message Yizhi a select few addresses in Sutoku territory that stretch into Tamamo. ]

In case your quarters fill up, you can redirect them to our shelters.

[baofeng]

Thank you. Truth to be told, I’m not in the loop for the logistics on Tamamo’s end, but if you find yourself in need of extra space, you can ask this person for addresses or supplies.

[He sends Jin Guangyao’s network contact in return.]

[playfoul]

Noted. Let's hope this crisis doesn't drag on to the point where it's necessary.

[ But if so, it's good to have options. If only securing cooperation from other clans could be this easy normally. ]

shall we wrap after these tags? yuri is one comment off from this thread qualifying for rewards btw!

[baofeng]

We'll pray for clear skies, for what good that'll do.

[Praying to Heaven kind of loses its sacredness after you witness the Celestials act all touristy about your culturally important war machines... but it still has spiritual value, you know? He doesn't have a more productive thing to do anyway.]

Stay safe, sir.

yes sounds good!

[playfoul]

If the heavens could do anything about this, I expect they would have rescued their investment properties by now.

[ He chuckles dryly. Meeting the Celestials has caused him no small crisis of faith, but he's also benefited from their very deep pockets, so it's not like he can complain? He has a prayer or two in him for a time like this. ]

But yeah, you too.
