Um...guys? Just a heads-up that All Passions will be temporarily closed for a little while. I'll still take orders and make things, but I won't physically be at the shop for a long time, not until I can be mobile again anyway. Sorry for that.

Buffy, looks like we're going to have to postpone the lake-date for a while, but how about you drop by House #10 for dinner sometime this week to make up for it?

...actually I think it might be okay if anybody who needed something made or just wanted to talk to me can drop by House #10 during the day, so there's that too. Such an inconvenience, sorry again.

Yeah for the most part. Haruki's kind of an...eccentric kid.

How do you want to try this?

[Action]

[so_shik]

[she'll fish out a pin and hold it out to him] Pin this to your jacket first.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

[> You take the pin and attach it. It looks ordinary.]

Okay.

[Action]

[so_shik]

Now...focus and try to make Mr. Mew jump.

Re: [Action]

[emp3thy]

...Okay.

[focusing...]

[Action]

[so_shik]

[and waiting...anything?]

Re: [Action]

[emp3thy]

[you'll have to tell me. If Shiki is right it should, but I don't know what your reasoning is.]

[Action]

[so_shik]

...it's not working.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

It must be some other problem.

[Action]

[so_shik]

This is so stupid. But...thanks for trying anyway.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

[> You nod, somewhat surprised but glad Shiki didn't look too hard at the logic behind your test...]

There must be something we can do.

[Action]

[so_shik]

[unfortunately, Shiki's not thinking too clear due to a number of things from the night before]

Maybe...like what though?

Re: [Action]

[emp3thy]

[understandable, the poor thing.]

[> ...You can't think of another solution to her problem at the moment.]

We could focus on stopping him.

[Action]

[so_shik]

[...at least I think it'd be considered the night before, something like that]

It's going to be hard though because somehow he can even teleport still. He's fast.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

Does he use a pin for that?

[Action]

[so_shik]

...I'm not sure. I didn't play the game he was GM for, and I haven't really got close enough to look.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

Maybe a status ailment could block him from using it.

[Action]

[so_shik]

...I guess that's possible?

Re: [Action]

[emp3thy]

[a shrug]

You could let more people try the pin, too.

[Action]

[so_shik]

I could. I'll check with other people who know about it.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

[looking around at Haruki's mess collection again]

Do you think he'll come after you here?

[Action]

[so_shik]

I doubt it. He doesn't actively seek out people really.

[Action]

[emp3thy]

But he has twice.

[so_shik]

Second time was more my fault than anything, and the first time I left myself open as an easy target. You could see Mr. Mew from across town, it wasn't hard.
