PLAN TIME

[twibeast]

[ Beast waits until the next morning to say anything to the rest of the group, in part because it's a little late when they get home and he doesn't want to gather everyone on short notice and also because he needs some time to collect himself. First thing in the morning though he sends the message through discordia. ]

@ everyone
The Authority has been found.

She's one of the regulars at the Phantasma Fantastique that Sir Lion described. There is no doubt about it, she confirmed it once she realized what I was. I fortunately managed to record the conversation between us and I will upload it as soon as [ he figures out how ] I am able to.

I would like to propose a meeting at the mansion in Invidia this afternoon so we can pool together any other knowledge we have and start to formulate a plan. It should be easier to figure one out in person than over messages. If you know of any new Executors or ones who don't check their phone as often be sure to let them know.

[ He pauses a moment, thinking something over, before quickly adding: ]

On another note, I would like to make a personal request.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could all try calling me Achilles for the next little while.
Lately I have been thinking of picking a new name for myself and am quite fond of this one so I would like to hear how it sounds coming from everyone else before I make up my mind. Don't worry though, I will still respond to Beast if you call me that instead.

Thank you. I shall see you all later today.


[ A few hours later, with some help from Rei, the audio file gets uploaded to the group chat. The irrelevant stuff with the "masked guest" and security has been cut so all it includes is his conversation with Greta from beginning to end, but he still provides a time stamp to when she reveals herself for anyone that wants to get to the point. The audio quality is shockingly well for being in his pocket the whole time, so both he and Greta can be heard clearly. (because that'll just make it easier for all of us) In case anyone misses it or needs a refresher, he plays it again at the meeting, right at the start.

Now, let's hash this out. ]

[Mmmm, fungi. She appreciates Phoenix so much.]

I guess you probably don't become an Authority in the first place if you don't have really strong feelings about something... except maybe Sloth, I guess? Is Sloth still one of the sins?

[Look, she's not Catholic enough for this, okay. She just picked things up being goth.]

[discutio]

[A small shrug. The guy in a suit covered in skulls is probably not Catholic.]

[daughterofthemark]

Sloths are an animal, are they not?

[mementomoritz]

That too! I think the animal was named after the sin... which is kind of mean, now that I think about it.

It's not like they're being lazy, that's just their metabolism! They need to move slowly! [JUSTICE FOR THE TREE SLOTH.]

[daughterofthemark]

Are they truly so slow? I had the impression they were dangerous.

[.........etrian odyssey.]

[mementomoritz]

The average unaltered sloth is only capable of a maximum speed of fifteen feet per minute, at most! ...Altered sloths can move significantly faster, and are also much more aggressive.

[For once, not her fault. This is just the kind of thing that happens when your society rebuilt itself in the aftermath of an alien terraforming apocalypse.]

[daughterofthemark]

I see! I must have been thinking of the altered sloths.

[It turns out you also get those when the aliens, terraforming, and apocalypse are separate.]

[mementomoritz]

The standard kind also grows algae in their fur for camouflage purposes, which serves as the main food source of the sloth moth! ...That isn't a combat advantage either, it's just really fun to say.

[daughterofthemark]

Sloth moth...

Sloth moth!
