[nihilmancy]

[She is none the wiser.]

I have already sent them.

[sancrimony]

- I said before that I would support you, didn't I? You don't have to bear that alone . . .

[sunflowering]

[ The points come fast. Quickly followed by the text from Lucifel. She doesn't respond in text, merely shoots him a meaningful look, before going to the store on her phone to purchase the ability.]

Just give me a moment to get it...

[nihilmancy]

[She turns to Lucifel] Thank you, but I would like to pay for this. We can discuss other methods of support later, if that's okay.

[And then to Kaguya.]

Thank you, Kaguya. You have no idea how grateful I am to you.

[sancrimony]

[ he knows she's seen, so he doesn't need to acknowledge it - he looks to sekhmet instead, eyebrows knit together ]

. . . Very well. . .

[sunflowering]

[ She lifts her hands, shaking them in protest. ]

No-- you don't have to thank me for anything. This is... already something difficult you've had to think on.

[ Ability, purchased...! ]

Lucky for you both, I've been trying to practice my calligraphy, so I carry around the proper materials in my bag with me.

[nihilmancy]

I will thank you nevertheless. It is a tremendous weight off of my own shoulders as well, in addition to protecting everybody here. I have feared myself since I have gotten here, and now, I can finally be free of that fear.

[she smiles a little, a small smile, but with warmth and affection in her eyes, despite how low she feels right now.]

Shall we start, then?

[sancrimony]

Shall I find a bench . . . ?

[sunflowering]

[ Poor Sekhmet.

Kaguya wasn't there, and so obviously she has no idea of knowing what truly went on between her and the others, but... her relief is palpable.]

Mm. A bench would make writing this out easier.

[nihilmancy]

Very well. I would also like to include another clause, if that is possible.

[sancrimony]

[ finding them a seat ]

[sunflowering]

[ She settles down, pulling out all of the needed materials. ]

Alright, tell me again what you'd like said, and I'll write it out.

[nihilmancy]

"Should Sekhmet of sensitIV attempt to act on the impulse of causing fatal harm to another person unbidden, whether by ability or physical force, whether directly or indirectly, she will be rendered immobile until she is no longer a threat. Her eyes and ears will shut and she will no longer be able to move or speak until the impulse has passed.

Furthermore, in the event that Sekhmet of sensitIV should gain mental compulsion over another individual, she will be forbidden from attempting to harm that individual physically or psychologically, through powers, physical actions, or words, and from ordering that individual to harm another through the same means. Violation of this clause will trigger the aforementioned consequences."

[sancrimony]

[ texting to kaguya, away from sekhmet ]

higanbana: In the corner, please write this:
higanbana: "This clause does not apply in instances where she is in danger of fatal harm herself, or in acting with the intent of preventing fatal harm to another. Nor does it apply to her choice of voting in games produced by Imeeji Idol Productions."
higanbana: If she asks it's a right of Taisho to add whatever clauses and caveats they like

[sunflowering]

[Carefully, she begins to scribble things down, noting Lucifel's own addition, at the bottom. Her handwriting is neat, though quick.

In the end, it reads:

Should Sekhmet of sensitIV attempt to act on the impulse of causing fatal harm to another person unbidden, whether by ability or physical force, whether directly or indirectly, she will be rendered immobile until she is no longer a threat. Her eyes and ears will shut and she will no longer be able to move or speak until the impulse has passed.

Furthermore, in the event that Sekhmet of sensitIV should gain mental compulsion over another individual, she will be forbidden from attempting to harm that individual physically or psychologically, through powers, physical actions, or words, and from ordering that individual to harm another through the same means. Violation of this clause will trigger the aforementioned consequences.

This clause does not apply in instances where she is in danger of fatal harm herself, or in acting with the intent of preventing fatal harm to another. Nor does it apply to her choice of voting in games produced by Imeeji Idol Productions. ]

That should be it...

[ She glances up at Sekhmet. ]

Once you sign your name here, at the bottom, I'll sign my own. And then this paper will be binding.

[nihilmancy]

[She glances at the contract, not expecting the final words, but she simply nods. Yes, that seems like something Lucifel would have wanted to add.

She signs.]

Very well, then. Thank you, truly.

[sancrimony]

[ hey now

just because you're right ]

Thank you, Kaguya-san.

[sunflowering]

No... like I said, this is no trouble at all.

[All she had to do was write something down. And she signs her name now, making the entire thing binding. ]

I'm actually a little honored you thought to ask me.

[She... wants to be useful.]

And I hope this brings you some peace of mind, Sekhmet-chan.

[nihilmancy]

Yes, I won't have to worry as much, now. [She bows deeply.]

And others will be safe from me, too.

[sancrimony]

[ moving to find sekhmet's hand, squeezing it gently ]

Is there anything we can do to repay you, Kaguya-san? You said you didn't need anything but the points for the ability, but . . .

[sunflowering]

[B-Bows back to Sekhmet!! ]

No, really, it's fine.

[ Looking back and forth between the two. . . ]

Just... when Taisho...loses a bad game... please be there to help my unitmates.

[ She's still absolutely terrified of losing and them dying, so... knowing that at least someone will be there after is a small assurance.]

[nihilmancy]

I understand. I will. I'll help them, and I'll help you.

[And despite her distraughtness, she smiles warmly and sweetly at Kaguya, genuine gratitude and affection in her eyes.]

[sancrimony]

Of course.

[ watching sekhmet for a moment, before he looks to kaguya and gives a grateful look himself ]

Until then.

[sunflowering]

Please take care. I hope that things begin to calm down for you both.
