cancry | PLAN TIME

[ 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. ]

Then don't pay attention to them.

[Does Sword care? Not in the slightest. Does his apathy outweigh his desire to sass Wolfsbane? Also no.]

Do not talk to me that way, this doesn't concern you!

And them kissing doesn't concern you. What's your point?

You've got some nerve. I've done nothing to you, and you keep thinking you can treat me like I'm the nuisance here.

That's because you are. No one asked for your opinion, and yet you gave it anyway.

And you think public displays of affection in a meeting are appropriate?

It was a kiss. It's not like Ruin grabbed his ass or anything. Just admit you can't handle adults kissing and leave.

I'm sure he would if left to his own devices. You know him.

No, I really don't, but also, I really don't care. You're being a child. Get out.

I was here first! You think you can order me around?

You're the one throwing a fit over two people kissing. Obviously you're not mature enough to be any use here.

I'll show you. You think you can insult everything I do and say I'm dragging the group down? I'm sure you're not half as strong as I am, that your tactics can barely be qualified to exist, and that your impatience will just lead you to wander off before we manage to get rid of this Authority!

If you're trying to prove me wrong, you're doing a terrible job. Try again.

I won't have to. You'll prove it yourself in due time.

And when I don't? Are you just going to throw another tantrum or say that "this doesn't count" or something equally as childish?

Surely you're just going to keep saying I'm a load or something equally asinine even if you see otherwise, so I don't see why you're pointing that at me.

Because between the two of us, I have actual proof when I call you a nuisance and a danger to the rest of us in a fight. You're just a brat.

I've never so much as hit any of you in a battle!

[Just burying that snort-laugh in Lion's shoulder don't mind him~]

I will set you on fire, you ungrateful pest.

Do you really want to make that much work for Medic? For something so petty?

[You're being an entitled brat again Wolfsbane.]

Chiron will take care of it. You seem to get along well.

[He just... flinches a little at that, looking away from her.

Ah... not so much but it's fine, everything's fine. Memory trauma not withstanding.]

Yeah... sure.

[For as much as she weirded him out at first he would absolutely take heals from Medic over Chiron these days.]

[Cheerfully:] Of course I'll always heal you! Just ask whenever you need.

[He appreciates you so much Medic.]
