Week one
You've all met Athena, and she's made her point quite clear. She's fully committed to making this world better, and you're the ones who agreed to lend a hand. Something she's obviously quite thankful for.
It's really not so bad around here. Despite the sky, and the state of the land, things are fairly calm. You've got plenty of time to get used to it, and each other. Maybe this'll be easier than it seems.

I could.
[... He doesn't move. The table's large enough for twenty-odd people to use, he isn't taking up that much space!]
no subject
I can't clean and contribute to the upkeep like you asked me to if you're there. This is the only object I have yet to clean.
[Total lie -- but she really would get started with cleaning this long table if she had to, to keep up the deceit]
no subject
[Oh right. They did make that agreement, didn't they? It slipped Ranma's mind, since he didn't think she would take it that seriously (missing that she's messing(?) with him). He certainly hadn't! And while the stubborn, asshole side wants to double down and stay glued to this table or move a tiny inch, technically speaking, a deal's a deal. Gotta honor it.
Congrats Misane, you got him to actually acquiesce. Ranma stands up with his hands and maneuvers over to one of the chairs. Yes while holding that stupid fucking pose.]
Go nuts.
no subject
Thank you.
[And she hurries to the kitchen to get a rag, and comes back to start cleaning from one end of the table. This is going to take ages. This is one long table...!]
What's this contorted pose you have going on?
[It's not that twisty, Misane]
no subject
Ranma decides to finally sit upright like a civilized person since sitting in a chair like this is more cumbersome than on the table Misane rudely kicked him off of.]
What, you've never seen a guy meditate before?
no subject
Also you were doing it on top of the table. That's also unusual.
no subject
[Leaning back in his seat, keeping balanced enough to not fall flat]
It helps with focusing. The better you can stand the pressure clouding in your mind [and the blood traveling to your brain], the better you can concentrate on the world around you, your inner strength and your goal.
[Pointedly not responding to the second comment about why he did it on the table and not the floor like a- okay not a normal person but still.]
I'm tryin' to figure out what these god powers Athena mentioned. Meditating like that helped with my ki training, so I figured it could help here!
no subject
[Have you reached enlightenment, Ranma? Did you tap into your godly power?]

[............................................]

It's a work in progress.
[no. no he did not]

[Likewise, he can't blame her for not bothering.]
Hard to when we don't have any guides or manuals to go off of. You'd think Athena would give us a hint what they are, or train us like a proper instructor.
[That wasn't a complaint, just a mild observation. It isn't too big of an issue for him, that's just how training do be. There's nothing satisfying or rewarding if the result's given to you in full. But he can see where others'll trip and stumble over this.
He needs something to keep himself busy, and it feels wrong to have Misane clean this behemoth of a table all by herself. Brb girl, he's fetching his own rag from the kitchen]
no subject
But some guidance would be nice.
[Athena, please, heeeeelp]
no subject
[Goddess of wisdom, master of war, do your job and impart some wisdom on these dumb kids!!!
Returning with rag in tow, he gets right on wiping the table]
That's what I'm thinkin'! Doesn't help that not all of our titles give us specifics. Like...
[Pause, before looking over at Misane.] What's yours again?
no subject
[If it's not about determining, like, answers and the such, then she's not sure what it could be, because she's not infailingly determined]
no subject
It isn't. Determination can mean a lot of things, like resilience or deduction. Flow isn't any clearer either.
[He won't deny being prolific when dealing with things off the cuff. But that can't be his power since that's something he's innately great at already! Hmm...]
If Athena won't help us with these, maybe we can put our heads together and help each other?
[Two or more heads are better than one, they say.]
no subject
Perhaps now you're really good at making urban music.
[That's a flow!]
no subject
[...]
Might be jumpin' the gun here, but somehow, I doubt that's it. Plus, my singing chops are impeccable already.
[Are they Ranma???
Hmmm... An idea pops into his noggin! He puts his arm behind his back.]
Guess how many fingers I'm holdin' up.
no subject
......]
Three.
[Misane, your power for the time being is giving Inspiration to the allies like Athena can do, this isn't it]
no subject
[He reveals his hand, closed in a fist. Not a single finger raised.]
Wrong.
[:3]
no subject
[Damn it, this world is unkind to her, she frowns]
