The mingle only came to life yesterday so... not really. There's a thread where he's going to give Anna back a bit of her glass, and Ryo is asking him how to find Hajime, but everything's in its infancy, so...

(That confirms my worry that everyone would wait until Oct to do anything. Including me, but more because I was low on ideas.)

Keep me updated on the giving Anna back some glass, and how much, that's important and may influence the content of next mingle.

I'm waiting on a mod answer for more specific instructions for you for next week. I suspect they've already answered, but as Plurk's down, I can't get to it yet.

That was kinda a given, yeah. (AC really screws up a lot of things, annoyingly enough...)

Re: Anna: He has two pieces he's going to give back, one at a time (he wants to see what happens. And then to see if it happens the same again) I think the plan is one good memory, one bad one for a variation on reactions, but nothing's threaded yet, so that's up in the air. (I figured he's made friends with the crows and regularly gives them bribes of shinies and snacks so he was able to come up with an agreeable trade for the two. Depending how things go, he may see about bribing them further to get more of them back because this is kinda fascinating for him.)

As the crows have put Anna Monday on their to-kill list, they are reluctant to willingly give up shards. Unlike Fae, their polar opposites, the crows do not take bribes or trades. They only do things because they love someone, i.e. Dream-Eater. If he breaks their trust, they will murder him. That's... how they roll... ANYWAY, he's less likely to get more shards unless he steals them without getting caught.

He's not a trust-breaking type (overlay or not, YGO is a Friendship series, so that is kinda a core thing for him) so looks like no more shards for him. If he asks either them or... whatever it is he gets his info why the crows have it out for Anna, will he gets a response? (and will they be mad at him for giving them back?)

They'll just refuse to give him more shards and give him the cold shoulder if he presses them about it.

The crows don't talk, so he has better luck doing it on his own. After he does the Cornerwitch magical question ritual, the graffiti reveals that the crows think Anna Monday is too dangerous to leave be. Clearly they know something everyone else doesn't. (Its violence and instability will be more properly showcased as the next rescue party obstacle.)

Crows will get an apology pizza afterwards then.

Follow up question of "Why" / what do the crows just giving the info on the violence/being a hot mess thing or anything else in addition?

They would super not want Anna Monday to start bringing parts of its territory into the mundane world, something they foresee happening if Anna Monday continues to be allowed to hang around. A storm of flying shards of glass would really mess up their airspace.

New question!

Is there anyway that Dream-Eater could arrange for Ryo (Hajime's sidekick) to have safe passage to go see him? (I seriously have no idea what he can even do here TBH... )

Does Ryo have a way to track down Hajime, like a Bond?

Ryo is Hajime's spirit animal from Questing Country, so yes.

Crap i deleted my answer for this and forgot what it was. But is this moot now since Anna Monday is facilitating the rescue?

Yes, but Ryo is still asking (since it was before the rescue)...

It’s a tough world out there for a cute animal, and Ryo should take every precaution. Dream-Eater would know after asking the brick and stone: Nila's portals are always safe, and this makes them advantageous. Dream-Eater (or Ryo?) could pay Nila the Sorority Leader to safely take Ryo to the other world in a watertight carrier. It shouldn’t take long, so there should be enough air. After that, he’s on his own, unless he’s brought someone with him.

Next week: When Fennel tells the Involved what is attacking the rescuers, Anna Monday being a magical ghost rather than a Fae seems like a good theory to you too. Tell any Involved what you learned about Anna Monday being on the crows' to-kill list, the shards, etc. Advertise sales of nonharmful anti-ghost Protections, which most other people probably won't have because they specialize in Fae stuff, whoops.

Easteros will send a special agent (Safe Name: Agent Web) to EU to briefly check in with their secret bodyguard, Argentum, and confirm Alayne's well-being at the college. He strolls around campus, poking his Uninvolved nose everywhere. His presence is a nightmare for Involved staff and students alike, exactly the kind of attention Fae and EU don't want.

Offer your shop to students and staff as temporary storage for their obviously Weird items until Agent Web leaves, hopefully soon.

I'm still a bit unsure what he can actually offer people..? Like... Can I say that ~~since he's off brand Bakura and of course he has~~ he and his occult obsession means that he knows how to make wards and charms and all that such?

Also is there something that is student-only accessible, like campus email or something where he can do an advert just to students, rather than something Mr. Nosey could see walking through campus? Possibly some trick he knows to make a sign only noticeable to students and not "adults"?

Yes! those are what I meant. That's what Protections do. He can also consult with Fennel/The Staffperson, who is an expert on the supernatural in general.

Are Involved teachers included? Anyway, I imagine some Involved have made a secret emailing list, sure. But just so players don't HAVE to do it, I'll say that not every Involved has opted in.

It's the equivalent of putting up posters. You're free to ignore/delete the email unread. He just wants to advertise without it being out where Mr. Nosey can see.

Sounds good
