Endgame Coordination
Ok, guys. I know it's not my endgame here, but I thought we could use a bit of coordination as we're looking at the final mingle soon.
Information has gotten around about what happened at the end of the last Valence quest, and I know there are two to three groups of people (and some individuals) who are currently out looking for Luci.
So, I thought it would be better to get some coordination going on. I'll post a toplevel of what Naoto's doing/looking for/working on, and others can do the same. Hopefully we can get something worked out, or at least have everyone on the same page going forward!

Naoto Doing Shit
Naoto is planning (or would like to) find an Opportune Moment to use her Truth-powers to prove Zed's innocence by asking him a question and compelling him to tell the truth.
Beyond that, she would likely help in any final confrontation with Luci, because that's just how she is.
Also, if somehow her Spirit Animal gets exploded in the process, that's actually good. I have Plans.

And it really makes Naoto's sense of drama happyno subject

Just Naoto being able to be Naoto, which means discovering and revealing the Truth.

That is a marvelous icon and a trifle frightening. I love it./bows and stands aside

Naoto is a trifle frightening when she's being intense. One of the reasons I love her.no subject
She was already almost ready to finish her experiment by the time Phillip and Zatanna found her, and once people actually found her, she immediately moved to complete her work. I am currently waiting on mod verdict on the results of this, but unless something goes catastrophically wrong with that to prevent her from getting out, she will likely flee the castle immediately after. No one is likely to catch her before she leaves, but people are welcome to arrive and investigate what's left behind - I can tag and provide details on what's actually there if anyone wants to do such a thread (once I have mod results so I actually... know...)
Next mingle I'm totally up for confrontation/endgamey things, wherever people corner Luci. With so many people out looking for her, it's bound to happen.
no subject
Or both. Both is good.

At the very least, he is passing word onto his Bond crew about what the situation as people know it about the exploding spirit animal situation is. After that, it's uncertain whether he'll be joining the search actively, or helping his group with whatever else they're doing, or something else entirely.
However, his ability set under his Thread Archetype includes being able to look at the threads of fate connecting people: if there's anyone searching who has a strong enough connection with her (not sure if it'd have to be a capital-B Bond or just some strong link otherwise), he might be able to point them in her direction via that? Champion not Oracle, he's not the best at that stuff, but still.
no subject
Unless she's had significant interaction with someone that Birdie hasn't brought up, there probably won't be any significant ties, unless you'd count "kidnapped Thorn's spirit animal ages and ages ago" as a "strong link", but they don't even know each other, they've spoken all of once, briefly.

And/or, if Luci doesn't destroy Selene, if Phillip can let us know that Selene is around, it might be possible to trace that way using Thorne?
no subject
Selene via Thorn's a good bet, though, if the bunny stays safe. (Though given he's known her situation since the start of QC I'm going 'why didn't he try this BEFORE'. But I don't think he even knows that he can trace other peoples' threads, he'll need a poke into trying perhaps?)
no subject
Additional note!
no subject
I should add that Minako is mostly just hoping to get through the Jaunt. If anyone needs her, she's available, but she hasn't really been doing all that much this time around.
no subject
Seriously, she hasn't eaten anyone since she became a rock.She doesn't necessarily want death... but she kind of wants to fight Luci with knives and maybe cut her a little at the very least. Actually, the thought in the back of her head is to challenge Luci to some sort of knife fight... LOOK, SHE'S BEEN TRAINED BY JOSCELIN AND HIS WAY OF SOLVING THINGS MAYBE RUBBED OFF ON HER.Lucifer, I challenge you to holmgang!Anyway, she's part of the greater group gunning for Luci which is basically her bond group + Zed's bond group.
no subject
If any of the infiltrators are aware of the Champion of Cycles (she wasn't completely unknown, she's been in Questing Country for while and spends a majority of her time here), they'll be able to expect mostly plant-based stuff from her.
She's going to try not to hurt anybody, but she's also not letting anyone take Luci from her without a fight, so she'll definitely be involved in any confrontations that end up happening.
no subject
Nessa is backing up Thorn, but otherwise feels very over her head with all this. Questing country is not supposed to have murderers in it guyz ;.; Zoe is out for Luci's head, metaphorically or possibly also literally. Somebody who kills spirit animals needs to be stopped, okay. She will gladly go off on her own to do this, but if it's more likely to succeed and it's more likely Zed will be safe if she stays with a group (her bond group + thorn's bond group, atm) she'll stay with them.
no subject
He's the Oracle of Keys, and is thus supposed to be good at unlocking things, finding the key phrase or idea to riddles and puzzles, etc.
He is going to suggest that if Bonded groups have at least one spirit animal with wings, they bind them into a Volksgeist and have them remain airborne, perhaps assisting other Champions or warning them away from the area when they go to confront Luci. They should not touch the ground if at all possible and should stay as far away from her as they can. If one spirit animal is power and can make a blast like the one they saw, more of them will be much worse, and no one wants to lose their critter.
He will also suggest, once they know Mina and Selene are alive, using Kei's Threads to track their location by using it on Thorne and/or Perry or Beyond.
He does not want to kill Luci, but he does want her stopped, her dreamcatcher taken and/or broken, and presented to the community at large for justice to be served. When he finds that Kore was complicit in this, he will wish her captured as well.
He's going to try and be a voice of rationality and calm here, but he knows he's outnumbered and the last time he tried to lead Harrogate happened. So. He's a little tentative about speaking up.
