Things seemed to have quieted down a bit more ... until just recently. I apologize to anyone who is being disturbed by the odd storm outside; I'll see if there's anything I can do about it.

Also, I've yet to find Kamui, which leads me to believe someone found him before I could and took him somewhere, unless he too had been taken by the Malnosso.

This storm is completely unnatural! It's clearly the work of warlocks or spirits or something -- are you claiming to be a god so that you might fix it?

[13th_and_14th]

........

The person who is doing this isn't anything of that sort. And I am no god -- I have power, but not to that extent.

[[OOC: Subaru just dug his own grave, y/y?]]

[god_is_a_dude]

I knew it! So you do have supernatural abilities! My intuition is, once more, completely flawless!

So what powers do you have?

[[ ooc: ...More or less, yes ]]

[13th_and_14th]

The power I have would take too long to explain ... I'm not certain if anyone here knows what an onmyouji is or anything about onmyodo, so it's easier to think of me a medium, I suppose.

[[OOC: Holy crap, missing words, wow.]]

In where Haruki shows he's smrt.

[god_is_a_dude]

Onmyodo is that freaky divination thing which is based on Chinese theories on the five elements, as well as the interactions of yin and yang as well as astronomy and astrology. It relates to the study of the natural world and the supernatural energies that move along with it. Onmyouji are people that follow that religion-thing and just magic following that same pattern.

Right?

In which Subaru is downright shocked

[13th_and_14th]

...

... I admit, I didn't expect anyone to know of it. But yes, that's right. I ... I'm the head of all of Japan's onmyouji, as well as one of the Seven Seals.

[[OOC: Strike-out is crossed out somewhat hurriedly and is still fairly readable -- you surprised him to the point where he went on a little too far :|;]]

In which Haruki is taking advantage of that

[god_is_a_dude]

The head! And that means you're powerful and important and a person of influence! But what'd you mean by a seal?

In which Subaru is starting to act closer to how he used to before all that emo shizz happened :|

[13th_and_14th]

Y-yes, I suppose I am ... but in the end, I'm still just another person in this world.

... it's not something I'm sure I'd feel comfortable explaining openly ... even if I did tell someone unrelated to that situation about it already.

In which Haruki shows his GAR

[god_is_a_dude]

That's what's so awesome about this place! Even the "normal" people are sometimes super-powered heroes or villains in all sorts of strange stories in all sorts of strange worlds.

What?! Come one, I knew what that which you are is, the least you could do the return the favor of showing you that not all people in Luceti are ignorant is explain something when you have pointed out. Once a fact is stated, someone with real manly spirit will not recall information on that fact!

In which Haruki's attitude totally reminds Subaru of his sister -- Also, Filtered

[13th_and_14th]

Well ... I don't think I'm by any real means normal really, but I suppose that's true ...

I-- ... hnn, fine. The Seven Seals are seven espers who were born to protect humanity from the Seven Angels, who wish to destroy it, until the promised day in 1999, when humanity's fate would be decided. I am ... one of those seven.

In which Haruki questions Subaru's masculinity -- also, Filtered

[god_is_a_dude]

ESPERS?! You're an esper?! That's amazing! But why would angels want to destroy the world? I mean I'm familiar with all shorts of judgment stories and all sorts of other things like that, but they never stuck me as making a lot of sense.

Also, if you're not normal, then you're abnormal -- which means you're special, and therefore your previous argument that you're not noteworthy as compared to others here is garbage! Show some spirit and be a man -- stick with one opinion!

In which Subaru would never admit that his masculinity is almost non-existant -- also, Filtered

[13th_and_14th]

They weren't actual angels -- they too were a collection of seven espers that were opposed to us. I'm not certain as to why they're called angels.

I ah ... yeah ... Hokuto-chan would get along with this one almost instantly ...

In which Haruki is finding this man potentially a good find -- also, Filtered

[god_is_a_dude]

That's just weird! Things should be called by what they're called, and if they aren't big human-things with wings and a co-relation to the European God or some other heavenly place, then they shouldn't be called angels. Particularly if they're the villain in the story, that just doesn't make any sense. I mean God is meant to be a nice guy, isn't He? [Oh, the irony.]

Stop agreeing with everything I say! I realize that I, Haruki Suzumiya, the divine leader of the glorious SOS-Brigade exude so many pheromones that it is hard for even men to resist the power of my manly spirit, but this is just ridiculous! You're almost as timid at Mitsuru, and you're an esper, not just a normal human! Jeez...

So what's your name?

In which Subaru is wishing he just kept his mouth shut -- also, Filtered

[13th_and_14th]

I suppose they could be thought of as the Earth's angels, trying to cleanse it of humanity so it could breathe again. That's merely speculation, though ... I suppose my grandmother would know, but there's no way I could possibly ask her at this point.

... you're just acting very much like someone I know. It was always pointless to argue things with that person and I see no point in arguing with you.

... Sumeragi Subaru.

In which Haruki praises Subaru for finding balls -- also, Filtered

[god_is_a_dude]

See, now you're showing spirit! Good job.

But the planet needs angels?! I realize that the Earth is important, but it's just a bland and boring rock without people on it. Even if people are, on the whole, similar and mundane, a place in which nothing exists is even more boring. So I guess it's a good thing that there are people like you to fight pinkocommie freaks like that!

Also... 1999? Jeez, I guess your Earth isn't my Earth. That figures, nothing interesting ever seems to happen on mine... It's a few years past that where I'm from.

In which said praise may be taken away shortly -- also, Filtered

[13th_and_14th]

... right.

[Was going to go into a long winded speech, but decides to avoid that for now] ... ah, yeah.

That could be true. But it's also possible that it's the same. We have always shielded our fights from the public, so no one knows of our actions, except those involved. So it's possible ... but I doubt it.
