Well,two of the three following options potentially involve sneaking around. But in my opinion his scan with Hunting Spirit is just as likely to yield results.

We can always do all of the above, with Hunting Spirit too. Although Burst usage would take possibly away from the inevitable execution.

We'll likely have one chance to rest before things get too outta hand

Anyone who isn't decided yet can say they took the same bus as Bonham, giving them a chance to plan a bit before arrival.

As I've said it's probably a good idea to go in with at least a bit of a plan.

As an answer to chloe's question, C091 meant either CAT 1 or CAT 2, the idea of 2 ogres in the same place at the same time is unheard of.

Though hypothetically possible!

I'm personally interested in talking to this orderly.

@TheHumbug let's get this out of the way: I'm going to assume that generally everyone in the hospital is affected by Black Suit? Also,would it apply to uses of Negotiation for questioning or does it have to specifically involve "I order you to do this" or "do this or something bad will happen"?

And I also think it might help if we made our character sheets visible via the character library,so that we can reference what each of us can do at a given time and form plans.

Just a suggestion though,I'm not insisting on it.

I agree. My sheet should be visible now.

Do we have an idea of where this orderly is at?

Orders imply a degree of preestablished authority. If you insert yourself as some form of authority figure you will be able to take advantage of Black Suit, but just questioning them without that will require some sort of intimidation. You could also straight up just order them to do stuff and if you roll well enough, they'll probably assume you have the authority to do so.

Everyone in the hospital is probably human. Probably.

Sounds useful with the orderly at minimum, given that he thinks we are with the government!

Just to make it clear, has the party decided to split? I got the idea that everyone was generally heading to the hospital at least. If that's the case, you're probably on the same bus, since you'd have to wait 15-30 minutes for the next bus heading towards that area.

Guess I made an assumption about how extensive Erasmus' search is. If he is taking off, I'd like to make sure he isn't alone. If not, then I'll wait while he finishes his search and then move forward to the next lead.

Oh, I see that we are talking about heading to the hospital. Then yeah I'm on the first bus.

Are we still on the bus or have we arrived? Since details were posted about the hospital, I had assumed we'd arrived. I can retcon if not.
Jul 30, 2025 9:24 pm
You've both arrived and not arrived. If you want to do anything before arriving like talking with your fellow exorcists, you can do so, but you can also begin the investigation and leave the bus. Part of the intention of the SEER timestamps is to create a sort of log of events so you can stage your posts either before or after those events. If you'd like, you can even give your own timestamps to fit them into things. I plan on creating a megadoc at the end of every investigation so you can see your achievements and the events of the investigation all laid out.

I just find that when it comes to PBP it's best to keep things moving as forward as players want, and then take steps back in time if necessary. As long as an event hasn't happened in narrative that would prevent you from saying "I want to do this before we arrive" or something of the like, you can jump around a bit temporally.

Neat!

For example, we know that erasmus is going to be occupied from between 07:43:04 and 07:50:37, but everyone else is allowed to do whatever during that time. If you don't post that you're doing something, though, I'm going to automatically assume that you're waiting, so that we don't get stuck with nothing happening, which is what kills PBP in my experience.
Jul 30, 2025 9:33 pm
I'll wait a day to give others a chance to put in what they want, or until everyone's replied. Don't want to get too far ahead and have Erasmus trying to solo a Sin xP
