☾ SECHS

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

[Unlike how Hayate typically wears ordinary clothes--such as whatever she could find of her own or make use of from the Necessities--she is now garbed in something very, very different: a black armored dress; in her right hand is a long staff with a cross at the end sharpened into several sword-like blades, in her left is a heavy tome with unreadable runes, and on her back were three pairs of large black wings.]

Right, not that no one saw this coming, but it seems we've got a new problem on our hands. I'm sure a lot of you already stumbled across them what with all the caves and signs popping up, but a bunch of cave entrances seem to have popped up here and there over the last few days. This might or might not have anythin' to do with the Queen talking about dungeons...

...Anyway, as you'd probably guess, they're filled with monsters. So! Please stay out of them. Not that I can stop anyone that wants to ignore me, but it's worth a shot. If you really do want to explore 'em, I suggest we work together. Being in at least pairs together should work, but don't let your guard down and definitely don't split up.

Fate, Nanoha, Vita, Signum, Vivio. Seems like it's time to get back to work. If others want to explore, too, you guys should split up and find others to help out; I know all of you can take care of yourselves, so pairing you guys up would be a waste.

I'll stay back and do my command thing. I'll be in the way otherwise.

Okay. Got it!

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

You take extra care of yourself, 'kay? You're as old as your moms were when they started gettin' into trouble, but that won't stop 'em from freaking out.

[uberlikehermama.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I will!

[thunder-ace.livejournal.com]

I was just going to suggest investigating those caves... we need to scout them out as soon as possible.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

Find someone t'go with you. If no one around here want to, take Signum.

[thunder-ace.livejournal.com]

I'm sure Nanoha won't mind joining me, so I'll take her along.

Since we don't know how big this new area is... how long should we stay down there? [After all, if they get ambushed by whatever's down there and can't call for help, they need to know when to send a rescue party...]

[starlightace]

Roger that. Do we know if they're vulnerable to magic?

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

No idea. I didn't have any way to check myself, but the couple things I saw seemed more normal than the...things that we dealt with during the storm.

[starlightace]

There's really only one way to find out for sure, isn't there.

[peachhat.livejournal.com]

Thanks for telling me about them, will go there at once.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

Don't go by yourself!

[mellifluently.livejournal.com]

Monsters? What sort of monsters? Can they get out?

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

I only caught a glimpse of one or two, but we should be able to figure out more soon. I don't think any have come out, but we can't say it's impossible...

[contemptuous.livejournal.com]

Ah, something to do.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna hope you've got some experience with it...?

[gun-cata.livejournal.com]

How tough are we talking, exactly? Will guns be effective?

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

No idea yet. We'll have to find out.

[heretolookhot.livejournal.com]

"As you'd probably guess"? Who the hell assumes there's monsters behind every corner?

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

When you're in my line of work you do.

[brustriese.livejournal.com]

I'll keep an eye out for civilians wandering in, I suppose...and watch Nanoha and Testarossa's backs.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Signum. You know as well as I do how them two attract trouble.

[breakthroughit.livejournal.com]

Right, good thinkin'. Geez, even a 'paradise' has trouble. Shoulda seen it coming.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

Heh. You'd get bored just hanging out with me in the flowers all the time, anyways. This'll be a change of pace, right?

[hotshot-momma.livejournal.com]

If I can get a firearm, I'd like to accompany you. I'm a decent marksman, even if I don't have the raw technological edge you do.

[hentanuki.livejournal.com]

I'm sure someone else'll need the help more than me. Besides, I'll be busy doin' something else...
