[Hey there tower- you know this face? She doesn't make it a point to use the network often, but when she does, it's usually for a good reason. Today's reason seems to be making announcements, settled in the library with tea beside her and her sketchbook in hand as ever.]

Strega- we will have breakfast tomorrow. All of us. Please don't make me have to come and bring you down. It would assuredly not be worth the trouble.

[Don't make her do it boys. It'll be ugly. Or at the very least, unpleasant.]

Willow- I have more things ready for you, if you would care to come try them on. I feel I may need to request a few more types of fabric from the tower if I am to continue, however. I would like to get the rest of these done properly or not at all.

[Because so many projects, so little of the necessary fabric to use- but half-assing things isn't her style.]

There is one more matter I'd care to bring up, if I may. Her Imperious Condescension, if I might request your attention a moment.

[She picks up her tea then, fingers curling delicately around the cup. It's not an actual request of course, because she takes another sip and continues on regardless-]

It has come to my attention that you have taken issue with the fact that one of your subjects is in a moirallegiance with me. While I am certain you have nothing but his best interests at heart- [she's absolutely sure of the opposite, actually]- I feel I must implore you to kindly mind your own quadrants. Presuming of course, there are any more of your subjects here loyal or willing enough to enter into them with you. If not, perhaps you should look into finding a quadrant-mate outside of the limited number of your people- it seems to be working out just fine for some of the rest of them, after all.

[She takes another sip of her tea, then sets it aside and reaches forward toward the console.]

Ah- and if you should hurt him again like you did before, I believe you will find that not everyone is quite so willing to let you do as you please, Highness.

[Chidori out, yo.]

... Most, anyway. I have a feeling we're going to have problems with those other Persona users if they find out everything.

[ Therefore!! ]

I think we should be careful about how much of our fighting abilities they see. While it would ultimately be best to have more allies, I really don't trust any of them.

... They probably wouldn't understand, anyway.

Problems?

[If they have a problem, they can take it up with Medea's Agidyne.]

...you're probably right. It is probably unwise to trust anyone outside of Strega.

... They're naïve.

I'm not saying not to talk to anyone, but you'll probably run into a good deal of annoyance with any other Persona users.

You know, I probably don't need to say it, but... I'd prefer less fighting if we can manage it. The last thing we need to do is end up tiring ourselves out in a pointless battle and pay for it later.

[ HINT. HINT. :C ]

... I'm going to go look and see if we have anything in the kitchen for muffins at some point, too. So... good luck, okay?

[ That's all. He'll leave her be now. ]

I understand.

[And she does, sort-of. She doesn't much like dealing with the constant curiosity about why she's the way she is, or reliving memories she doesn't want to because someone wants to know 'how'.]

I did not intend to start a fight- but I will not back down from her. It's as good as letting her win if I do.

[A pause, and-]

There should be enough to make some plain ones, if we're careful.

I will see you soon, Minato.
