I wonder why that would be? Even if your teasing can be a little embarrassing sometimes, it's not as though you mean it maliciously or anything. Gu-xiong isn't that kind of person.
[...well, she does actually think that, but it also just kind of slips out.]
It reminds me of what happened to Aoi and I after we started fighting.
[she's, uh, more than a little concerned about that.]
...if it's anything like the power I have, it should wear off at... um, the end of the week. [...] But I sent Lust a message, and they said that maybe they would be able to intervene with it if it gets too bad.
[ and three actually because he knows at least one other one. ]
That makes me wonder who it could have been. Lust did it to you all, right? Not someone among our group? They said they 'fixed it' when I asked, when it came to you.
Molly has it. You have it. That's at least one if not two others. And why now, I wonder.
Mmhm, they said they did it so that we wouldn't try to hurt each other anymore. [which, uh, fair. cola and i were so ready to just let them bash their heads in on that table.]
But there shouldn't have been any need for them to do that again - and not to the two of them, of all people. Why now and why them, is what I want to know.
On the tactical side of things - the powers are wearing off this week.
It could just be someone wanting to play a prank. White's easily embarrassed. On the other hand, Molly was involved in helping to set that trap that caught Law - so it could be someone trying to keep him from doing anything helpful this week.
[ :T ] They're sorely underestimating the number of people capable of setting traps, if that's the case.
Mn, I don't think so. If it's not a prank, and it lasts for a week, it leaves Molly distracted for the entire week. Harrow is extremely clever, but sometimes she...
... is not that personable. [ he could've like insulted her or something but he didnt because harrow is like one of his favorites ] And Molly is. Not to mention, he might just tell White things, because he's been cursed. It's not that I think White is doing anything malicious or bad - I don't - but the more people that know things, the worse it is.
[ and molly is a good person who tells people things if he trusts them. it's so shitty that someone would mess with him like this, and gu yun really hates it. ] Plus, the power wears off on Friday, rendered unusable - meaning it wouldn't affect them for the trial. Why not get the full effect of the week?
[honestly he's valid. harrow is so good. shi qingxuan would probably have been annoyed if he'd insulted her (but wouldn't have been able to tell him so).]
There has to be something we can do about this...
[using her own power to try and redirect molly's affections would probably just go poorly, though. the idea occurs to her, but she doesn't suggest it - that's got the potential to get messy fast.
it's going to be bad enough when this wears off on its own.]
...are you sure the effect will wear off on Friday? I know we stop being able to use them then - but, from what I understand about it, the arrows are meant to last the entire week once they've been used.

[ at least he's usually nice to qingxuan so it's not that weird. he sighs.]
Try to insult me. Like you really mean it. Just imagine that I was the one who replaced all of the rice wine.

[ they just want them to be passive aggressive this week. ] Didn't know you felt that way about Gluttony.
[ ...
just. while they're going. he takes another drink. ] White's an idiot who nearly died from trying to eat evidence.
no subject
...ah, well...
[haha! haha. she looks away and takes a drink.]
...wait, he did?
[that was
when she was cursed too i think. it's all a blur.]

Very heroic of me. [ is he starting to regret it now? (no) (ok maybe a little) ]

Even if it is just a prank, that's just - they shouldn't play with people's feelings like that.
[...]
And it seems shortsighted to use it so early. What if they need it later on for something?
