>Check our pockets

>Pat ourself down

[Neovereign]

Seki:

> Was the not usual thing not present yesterday?
> Inspect the thing visually, moving clothing as needed to be able to see better.

Seki:
>Assuming we're in a place where humans can't see us right now, pop off our head to get a better angle if we must. If not, make our way to somewhere where we can.
>How does our size compare to Wakasagihime and Kagerou's or do we not care?

Aya:
>Between Hatate, us, and Momiji, who is the biggest?

>Check our pockets

>Pat ourself down

Seki:

> You think so?
> Seems like a smooth rock and a ribbon.
> You are in public, unfortunately. This, you move somewhere more secluded.
> It is indeed a smooth rock and a ribbon. Its possible that Kagerou and Hime gave you these? Or at least, just Kagerou.
> You're the smallest of the three. Pretty much in all the visual areas.
> Your pockets are empty, and that rock and ribbon is the only thing in that higher compartment.

Aya:

> You're the biggest, but Hatate comes close. Shes the biggest in some other areas you're fine with losing to.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

Seki:
>If we popped our head off to examine the rock, put it back on. No need to accidentally blow our cover if, by chance, someone else enters this secluded spot.
>Is the ribbon attached to the rock or are they separate?
>Do either have anything identifying that could imply that it came from one or the other?
>Why can't we remember where we got this?
>Have we ever given them anything?

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Begin heading toward Casa de Himekaidou. She's probably our best bet for figuring out what's wrong.

Seki:

> Check the rock and ribbon for writing, or any other sort of message.

[Philosopher]

Seki:

>What knowledge do we have on magic?

>Can we tell if the stone is magical?

[Neovereign]

Seki:

>What knowledge do we have on magic?

>Can we tell if the stone is magical?

Seki:

> They're separate. Though it looks like it was attempted to be wrapped around it.
> There's no initials or anything like that.
> You don't recall if you were handed these or anything. Maybe they just slipped it on you?
> Not really.
> The rock seems pure and undamaged from what you can see. You think there was a name for this kind of rock, but you don't know it. The ribbon is black, again, from what you can see. Though you are in privacy now, so you could check properly.
> You're no magician, but you do know what most should. You can fly, for example. Your heads can fly without magic.

Aya:

> You start for Hatate's home.
>_

[Philosopher]

>Who would we go to to check if it was a magic or cursed rock?

[Kilgamayan]

Seki:

> When we separate our main head from our body, what do the bottom of our head and the top of our neck look like? Are there large holes that lead inside us, are there skin coverings sealing off our insides, or is something else going on?
> Are the rock and ribbon actually inside our clothes, touching our body? If so, who could have possibly put them there without our noticing?
> Since we're not in a private location, pull the ribbon and rock out of our clothes and study them properly.

[Tom]

Aya:
> Keep eyes out for potential scoops

Sekibanki:
> Check if rock interacts at all with said ribbon?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

Sekibanki:
> Check if rock interacts at all with said ribbon?

Seki:

> You don't know anyone well versed in magic and rocks.
> It's a bit like a hole. You know it's capable of keeping things out a well. You probably can't use it as a receptacle and store things in your heads that way. Best get bags for that instead...
> They are. They could have slid down onto you, though. Maybe while sleeping. Being thrown onto you seems unlikely.
> You take the two things out, studying them better.
> The rock is smooth all around. Its almost like it glows, but it doesnt.
> The ribbon still doesn't have any initials or text mow that you're fully examining it. It appears to be folded, with the flip side being red instead of black.
> The rock doesnt seem to do anything to the ribbon, nor vice versa. Maybe its just to keep polishing it?

Aya:

> Tengo society still looks the same. Nothing interesting is going on, even as you arrive at Hatate's home.
> Again, you don't know what time it is, so you're not sure if its too early in the day for her to be awake, or too late for the same.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> How do we not not know what time of day it is? Can we not work backwards comparing now to when we woke up for the day?

Seki:

> Does the ribbon look like it belongs to Kagerou? It seems to fit her color scheme...
> How familiar are we with a Seija Kijin?
> Have we ever actually tried and failed to use our body's neck hole as a receptacle? Or are we simply making an educated guess about our own biology when we think that we can't do that?

[Philosopher]

Seki;
>Replace our bow with the ribbon

[Neovereign]

Aya:

Seki;
>Replace our bow with the ribbon

Aya:

> You feel rested enough, but you don't know if you woke up in the morning, midday, or night. It could be the next day a few minutes ago for all you know...

Seki:

> It might.
> You heard a bit about her and the incident you were caught up in, but not much else.
> You have tried using your body's neck and the part on your head as well.
> You untie your bow and tie the ribbon instead.
> It's... much smaller. You probably look weird like this.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

Seki:
>Re-tie our bow.
>Does the rock look like it might've come from the bottom of a lake or stream?
>Would we choke if something plugged our neck hole or does it not lead to our internals unless our head is attached?
>What time do we estimate it is, roughly?

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> If Himekaidou has a doorbell, ring it. Otherwise, knock on the door.

[Philosopher]

Seki:
>If we see something reflective
->Check our appearance before changing the ribbon

[Neovereign]

Aya:

Seki:
>If we see something reflective
->Check our appearance before changing the ribbon

Seki:

> You put your regular bow back on.
> You don't know how lake rocks would be different.
> No, you wouldn't choke. You don't know if it leads properly when your head is detached.
> You have no clue. Even saying midday looks like it could be wrong.

Aya:

> You knock.
> "Who is it?" Hatate's voice responds after a few moments.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

Seki:
>Consider the merits of seeking out our fellow GYN members
>Do we know of any members aside from us, Waka, and Kage?

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Of course it's me. Surely you feel it too?"

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Of course it's me. Surely you feel it too?"

Seki:
>Consider the merits of seeking out our fellow GYN members
>Do we know of any members aside from us, Waka, and Kage?

Aya:

> "Feel what? Like staying in?" Hatate questions.

Seki:

> There aren't many. You could probably find out if these two things are from them. But then you're stuck dealing with them for the rest of the day, likely...
> Not personally, no. If others did join, you haven't cared enough to know. The information gets shared nonetheless.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

Seki:
>...Would being stuck with them all day necessarily be a bad thing?

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Like something's wrong. Seriously wrong."

[Neovereign]

Seki:
>...Would being stuck with them all day necessarily be a bad thing?

Aya:

> "Like something's wrong. Seriously wrong."

Seki:

> Between having the day to yourself, it's a bit worse in your opinion. Not that the day ends up bad, but one is better than theother.

Aya:

> "I already checked around today. It doesn't seem like much wrong is going on." She speaks, opening the door.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Frown a bit worriedly.
> "But you at least feel it, right?"

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Frown a bit worriedly.
> "But you at least feel it, right?"

Aya:

> "Is this a prank,or are you just not alright?" Hatate crosses her arms.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "It's not me that's not alright, it's..."
> Gesticulate randomly.
> "...everything else! ...Well, okay, maybe it's both. I don't know."
> Look suddenly nervous.
> "Do you really not feel it?"

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "It's not me that's not alright, it's..."
> Gesticulate randomly.
> "...everything else! ...Well, okay, maybe it's both. I don't know."
> Look suddenly nervous.
> "Do you really not feel it?"

Aya:

> "I don't." She frowns slightly. "But I'll help you figure out what's up, if anything is. You've got more field experience, so maybe you're noticing something I haven't yet. I'm not busy anyways. Better safe than sorry, right?"
>_

[Tom]

Aya:
> "Hey, I'm sure we'll find good stories to write about regardless!"

Sekibanki:
> How close are we to the village and how welcome are we there?

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

Sekibanki:
>Do we have any occupation in our human guise?

[Neovereign]

Aya:
> "Hey, I'm sure we'll find good stories to write about regardless!"

Sekibanki:
> How close are we to the village and how welcome are we there?

Sekibanki:
>Do we have any occupation in our human guise?

Aya:

> "Even if it turns out to be nothing?"

Seki:

> You've been in the village already. You don't think many know you're a youkai. Or if they do, they don't know what kind. You know that a few youkai already live in the Human Village. You're treated just like any other human due to blending in so well and not standing out much on top of that.
> No, not really.
