[Immediately post-Wonder Quartet]

[Private Message to Reiji:]
I protected your Keystone, like you wanted. You can consider this the end of our arrangement.

[Private Message to Hibiki:]
Hey. I'm gonna do my own thing from here on out. Take care of yourself, okay?

[Event:]
[Alexandra is immediately approaching a few people after the climax of the Wonder Quartet and Yuya's duel with Reiji. Top of that list includes Yuya, Yuma and Labrys. Before, in between or after she's spoken to those people, she's open to be approached by anybody else who was present in the Quartet.]

...hokay. [She looks at Labrys.] Do you think Dragulon can handle that?

[tachyonparticle]

It's likely possible.

If it refuses, I'll force it to.

*she's... had to deal with making Dragluon do a lot of things, huh. She calms down herself though.*



In the case that it can't, however, we can see if the main terminal here is up to the task. It's more powerful, but we haven't exactly worked every kink out, since it's come back into consistent operation.

Mostly because it's powered by the four Legendary Numbers that lack intact facilities, anymore.

[grimgrimwar]

[Alexandra leans away a bit at that expression. She kinda wonders exactly what relationship she and Dragulon have now...]

Um.

...okay. Maybe you and I should go check out Dragulon and see what it can do sometime in the next couple days, then.

[tachyonparticle]

*Given Labrys' feelings, it probably also makes you wonder how the cards' combined AI reflect onto the main terminal, then.*

Of course. I can set it up to start searching at least very soon, but I will need a day or two at a time to handle another situation.

[grimgrimwar]

Okay. Uh. What situation is that?

/2

[tachyonparticle]

Making sure someone doesn't continue making terrible choices.

Re: /2

[all_for_not]

... so I'm guessing you weren't able to fully convince him of the danger he's presenting, using those cards?

[tachyonparticle]

*Labrys shakes her head*

I think he ended up realizing the folly of what he's doing, himself, but I need to be present and make sure that he follows through on that.

[grimgrimwar]

... ... This isn't about me and you're just using male pronouns to throw me off the scent, is it?

[tachyonparticle]

Oh. No, apologies, Alexandra. We're not talking about you.

We're talking about Akaba and those cards he used.

[grimgrimwar]

Oh. [She frowns.] Yeah. Those...felt familiar. In a bad way.

/2

[tachyonparticle]

They should.

He has apparently managed to get data on the demons that attacked before-- the ones that required me to make my presence known when Aegis and Achilles were in the city.

I don't know what possesses anyone to use anything like that... But something did possess him to use them as a basis, which is dangerous given how much human belief influences things of this nature.

[lanceandram]

We personally think that he's probably an idiot. *... who the hell is this woman, Alex, and where did she pop up from.*

[grimgrimwar]

....oh. Hi, Lancea. [....how the hell did she know that.]

[lanceandram]

Awwh, I was hoping to surprise you. *A young man approaches from behind too, looking dismissive at his cohort's behavior.* You shouldn't be looking to try to scare people, Lancea.

/2

[grimgrimwar]

Oh. Uh.

[grimgrimwar]

BWAH!?

[Well, she looks surprised.]

/3

[lanceandram]

You don't need to act surprised just to satisfy her. *Lancea pretends to look offended.*

Re: /3

[tachyonparticle]

Lancea. Chakram.

Is there a reason for making your presences known?

[lanceandram]

Oh. You were all looking so serious over here, I decided to come over and see what was going on. Besides, I wanted to see the one who saved us, before.

[grimgrimwar]

I... [Alexandra looks off to the side.] I didn't do that much. You guys are the ones who saved yourselves.

[lanceandram]

Don't undermine what you did. It was only because you were pushing against her, that we were able to do anything. We were essentially broken, by then.

[grimgrimwar]

... [Alex smiles a little.] I'm just glad you guys were able to come back. You both look good.

[lanceandram]

Heh, thanks and no thanks to Failnaught. He took such a long time to get it over with, but it turned out we needed some "extra work", anyway. *Failnaught meanwhile gets an awkward expression thinking about it.* But... really, we did want to be able to actually thank you in person for helping. So, thank you, Alexandra Grant. *she and Chakram both bow their heads in thanks*

[grimgrimwar]

[It's Alexandra's instinct to deflect, try and diminish what she did, basically do whatever she can to not take credit and not feel any pride right now, but. She was already told not to do that. So...she tries accepting it instead, and nods to them.] ...you're welcome. I'm happy I was able to do it. [She bows back to them.] And I'm happy you two have been able to come back.
