We all have a Rite to Rescue

[damegane]

WHO: Sheep, Weeds
WHERE: The Pasture
WHEN: Day 53, shortly after folks are kidnapped

[After seeing Aides get kidnapped and heading back to the pasture to try to get a handle on the situation, it becomes increasingly clear that there needs to be some kind of organization before people go running off to the mists to die.

So! He'll just start a Crowdsourcing Rite on the spot and call out with a surprisingly loud voice:]

Hey!

If we want to get those guys back, we need Weeds to guide us, right? Well, we aren't going to get anywhere without the help, so - let's figure that part out first, all right?

If there are any Weeds willing to guide groups into the mists, or if any Sheep know of any Weeds who might be willing, get them over here. Sheep, organize your teams around the Weeds, make your negotiations if needed - whatever. Just don't go running out there without one.

[leonheartedly]

Exactly. We might need her ready when we get back.

[that's how their last mist adventure went, he needed ice cream when they returned. Safe to assume that might be a possibility this time too]

[survivaltricks]

[. . . god, yeah. speaking of ice cream, that thought is cross Lupin's mind, too]

We'll have her raid Daisy and Coco's shop while we're gone, just in case Yata needs the sugar when we get back.

[leonheartedly]

[he nods faintly, jaw clenching again]

I'll check our fridge too, in case he had some already.

[survivaltricks]

[MAKES A FACE]

I hope it's not contaminated with blood.

[since our fridge is still bloody. and has horns]

[leonheartedly]

I swear to god if it is—

[he isn't going to do anything he's just being annoyed cuz what else can he do]

[survivaltricks]

[MOOD]

The stupid demon couldn't even clean up its own mess. . .

[leonheartedly]

They never do, lazy-ass bastard.

[survivaltricks]

Someone has got to teach them basic manners.

[leonheartedly]

Not it.

[survivaltricks]

H-- hey.

[DOES THAT MEAN IT'S LUPIN'S RESPONSIBILITY NOW]

[leonheartedly]

[IT SURE DOES Tyr just smiles a little, but it's 100% a shit-eating smile because nothing can completely stop him being a little shit]

[survivaltricks]

[even during a crisis!1]

I'll think about it after we rescue Yata.

[leonheartedly]

[how do you think he stays sane??]

Of course, Yata is our priority.

[survivaltricks]

Yeah. He is.

[. . .]

[trying not to think too hard about Melody also being kidnapped. one thing at a time, Lupin. one thing at a time]

[leonheartedly]

. . . [the edges soften a little]

Same goes for everyone who was taken. I know Melody was too.

[survivaltricks]

[. . . . . .]

[quietly]

I know. . . I need to prioritize Yata. Melody. . . has an entire flock looking after her.

But I--

[he can't not be involved in her rescue, too]

[he just can't]

[leonheartedly]

. . . I know.

[if it was Crois . . . he shakes his head a little]

We'll figure something out. We're going out as soon as we're ready, yeah? Maybe we'll be there and back before Bluebell leaves.

[survivaltricks]

That's my hope.

[because he feels, deep down, that he needs to be a part of her rescue, too]

. . . but at the same time, I won't ask them to wait for me.

[because that's just him being selfish]

[leonheartedly]

Mmm . . .

[Lupin is in a rough position, he doesn't envy it at all]

When we get Yata and as soon as we get out of the mist - do what you have to.

[survivaltricks]

[and for a moment. . . Lupin looks grateful]

Thanks, Tyr.

Let's meet up by the pasture border soon.

[leonheartedly]

[he nods, briefly clasping him on the shoulder]

I'll grab my gear.
