[[ half passed 4 am and can’t sleep woo
[[hey Seren, quick question for you... Your power said it prevents marks and cures marks? Or at least some kind of good/protective thing when it comes to marks. And it's not related to dread... Do you think your diamond mark could prevent the person who leaves marks from marking folks? Or is it not that kind of power?]]
[[Okay, that's one ability out of three then. Can the diamond do anything else?]]
This is no time to panic, she told herself..
Just focus. Talk it out. Freaking out won't solve anything. We haven't lost yet!"Okay so... might as well just come out with it. According to my card, my marks of light can cure something called the “Void Shadow status”. No ones said anything so far to suggest anything relating to this so I’ve hesitated to mention it. But... right now I’m at a loss and I fear I’ve
actually been meant to be targeting the strings all along? Because like. sans could have been lying
completely about me countering him at all. Mechanical evidence that my patron existed here doesn't necessarily mean I countered his, only that
he couldn't mark
my targets. "
"As I've stated a few times prior, I planned to test this string theory tonight by targeting two people with strings and seeing what happens (because Aster motivated me last night, hence the lack of a mark on anyone today). But now, uh... if I'm understanding correctly, it looks like we lose tonight?? Or do we still have time? Darkwhite's clarification post doesn't really answer whether or not there's still more people to recruit."
"I... I just don't know anymore. All I can hope for is we don’t insta-lose when the night phase starts and pray my ability works to start countering this."
She shifted her weight from foot to foot, weighing whether or not to continue. Eventually, she added, "With all of that said, my marks
do have a secondary effect that I’ve been alluding to all game and I have no idea how to utilize it. My role card says they “cancel invisibility modifiers”. Which makes sense from a lore standpoint since they’re marks of light I guess but... I don't see how this helps us at this point."
"I'll also mention that, should I die overnight, my passive ability grants anyone who interacts with me one of my light marks, too. I mention this not because I fear I'm a target, but... rather to suggest a course of action. I have no idea whether or not I can cure the strings, so it would be a gamble, but... honestly, it might be better if as many stringed people as possible target me, and let the mafia take me out overnight? That way, if I can actually cure the strings, I'll affect as many people as possible."
"It's... a gamble, really. I don't know if this is the right course of action, because like... I'm definitely town, and I know that losing me would put town one step closer to losing but... if it works, we'd only lose one. If it doesn't, we could lose... what, five? How many have strings now? I dunno. If anyone has any better ideas that don't involve me dying, believe me, I'm listening."
'Last night made no sense?' And everyone here likes to poke me for being slow! Or, rather," she looked distastefully at her guardian stone, "that one has a real tendency to mess with things. But anyway, I think we learned a number of things from the previous night phase. Do you have anything to contribute?"
"...I'll refrain from being insulting and just explain it in simple terms for you; when I said "last night made no sense", I meant in terms of using the
night skipping ability. The general consensus was that using it last night would have made no sense. There was no benefit to it. But I suggested that using it tonight might be a better idea. Get it now?"
"Frankly, between my long catch-up posts and being transparent about what my ability does, I feel I've
contributed quite a lot... at least, I've attempted to. Can you say the same?" she added with disdain.
