greetings citizens.

behold: the city speaks! it is a raven that appears in my mind's eye, without a voice and yet with speech all the same. cool cryptid shit. im a superstar prophet now.

do you have any questions you want to ask the city? i'll ask them for you. no lame questions and only one a person! cant waste my new friends time with TRIVIAL mortal concerns.

[ ooc: this is related to harry's new power and questions will be relegated to the mods for answers. there might be a response delay while I wait for the mods to respond so just keep that in mind! ]

[retroductions]

You are able to speak to the city itself, yet you are limiting us to one question apiece? Unreasonable!

[everblooms]

the flowers
do you hear them, too?

[horrifictie]

the city is a busy entity!
i don't want to waste its time

[horrifictie]

no i cannot hear the flowers.
the flowers are not the city.
they are IN the city but not PART of it.

[everblooms]

[ she almost regrets somehow finding someone who might Understand right now. oh no. actually, yes she does. ]

the flowers come from the dirt in the city though dont they?
well in any case
you shouldnt just post this

[horrifictie]

why not?

[everblooms]

[ how do you say "sephiroth is in your faction, harry" without saying that. ]

why DID you post this anyway

[horrifictie]

i want to be helpful to people.

[retroductions]

I am nigh offended by the implication, Mr Sunset. My questions are both important and time-efficient.

[everblooms]

alright.

[ ugh. she only half believes this, but it does get to her. ]

it's complicated... even if i don't quite understand it
but people get scared when they don't understand it, or they want it for themselves

[no_kyouken]

Soundin' kinda drunk.

( a cryptid mind raven? sounds legit. )

Just one question, is it?

Then - Does the city wish for change? Or is it contented to remain like this?

Ah, that is two questions, isn't it! Forgive me!

[horrifictie]

and yet here you are wasting time without a single question offered.

[horrifictie]

im not!!!!!

[ so ok, he is in fact *a little* tipsy. but he knows what majima is implying here- ]

you dont believe me.
figures.
all great men are doubted by their contemparies.

[ Honestly, as weird as this all sounds, she has nothing to lose by taking it as face value. So... ]

Does the city know how long this "Stardust" has been falling, this time of year?

[horrifictie]

people dont want to listen to cities, aerith.
they want to rule them.
or destroy them entirely, either through war or economic deterioration.

[no_kyouken]

Ok. Then explain it t'me.

[horrifictie]

ok so run with me on this:
i have a theory that all cities have a spirit.
a genius loci collectively born through culture formed by its denizens.
this city's spirit is a three-legged raven!
and we are now connected thanks to toraguma's help.

[retroductions]

Only because you are forcing me to whittle down my particularly impressive range of very important questions to one. It is not an easy task. You should take responsibility for the wasted minutes between us.

[horrifictie]

dont worry!
i'll count it as a two for one deal.
