You channel her and then you make a sacrifice?

[He may not really comprehend this Kokkuri-san thing well, and at least he's smart enough to realize that maybe he shouldn't be in charge of this.]

Haha, this was a bad idea, I think~! And it's unsafe~! We fell off he roof last time~!

[savingazalie]

[ Yeah, Orphen's starting to realize that comprehension is not exactly a concept that's being fully grasped right now. ]

You fell off the-- you fell off the roof?!

[ Okay no he's grabbing Toki's shoulder now. ]

Alright, just what game are you playing??

[yokeye]

Yeah, like weeks ago! Kano broke his arm~!

[Orphen doesn't seem too interested in the game any longer, and perhaps he's confused about something? Toki's not good at reading people too often.]

I'm not playing any games currently! We hadn't started yet! Did you not understand it was like a board game, only not really like a board board game because there's no board, but you know what I mean! You can't play it in the hallway anyway, you have to be outside! I don't know why, though. I guess Kokkuri-san can't walk through walls like you would image spirits would be able to! Maybe she's weak and that's why you need a sacrifice to make her strong enough so she can talk to people for you!

[ He was trying to give this school the benefit of the doubt, he really was. This was one of the Tower's rivals school, so they had to have some talented students. He wasn't so stupid as to think the students here were completely inept. But right now? He wasn't so sure. ]

Alright. Look. I'm going with you, but I don't trust this. This better be legit, you hear me?

[ Because if not, he will magic the fuck out of this. ]

[yokeye]

[Orphen is giving the school far too much credit. Toki is pretty inept on the whole, and only here because he has a daemon contract and is a Seer.]

I don't know how uh, legit this is really, so we should forget the whole thing~!

[He's also currently trying to get his shit together, and recognize when things are utterly terrible ideas.]

What do you like to do? You've probably got much better ideas~!

[savingazalie]

Oh, you're not getting out of this. Either you show me what the hell this is, or I'm asking around. Either way, I'm gonna find out.

[ He's come too far to not see what the hell this is. ]

[yokeye]

[Well, if he's going to "ask around", Toki might as well explain what happened the first time.]

No, really, it's a bad idea! It's just the first thing that came to mind because it's the first thing I really did when I got here! We were trying to channel Kokkuri-san to talk to my dead sister and help with some paperwork or something and at the time I didn't know Kano had like illusion magic and he scared me and we fell off the roof and that was kind of a big incident, so you shouldn't get involved in something like that! I'm sorry I even mentioned this whole thing or that I let it get even this far!

[Hopefully, it's sufficient enough for Orphen to walk away without incident and forget the whole conversation.]

[savingazalie]

[ Well. That was incredibly disappointing. ]

... So what you're telling me is that this Kano guy tricked you.

[yokeye]

I guess? Maybe? I'm probably not remembering it right anyway~!

[Kano has pretty much been doing that from the moment they met. It's verging on gaslighting territory sometimes, and Toki is very confused about that relationship on the whole.]

I'm sure it wasn't his intention, though~!

[Will he ever be able to successfully change the subject here is the question.]

So, you're new, yes? You got here just in time for midterms, how horrible~!
