Week one

[letsplayamod]

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.

[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!

[cannotunravel]

Did it work?

[Have you reached enlightenment, Ranma? Did you tap into your godly power?]

2/2

[catsgothistongue]

It's a work in progress.

[no. no he did not]

[cannotunravel]

I can't fault you. [She gives broad passes of the rag on the table] I haven't done any progress at all either.

[catsgothistongue]

[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]

[cannotunravel]

We might be missing something. Perhaps we already have all the tools we need to figure out what skills we have, but we haven't used them correctly yet.

But some guidance would be nice.

[Athena, please, heeeeelp]

[catsgothistongue]

[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?

[cannotunravel]

I was labeled the Goddess of Determination. Perhaps it's not the most straightforward title possible.

[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]

[catsgothistongue]

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.]

[cannotunravel]

[Sounds like a plan! Let's see, let's see...]

Perhaps now you're really good at making urban music.

[That's a flow!]

[catsgothistongue]

[...]

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.

[cannotunravel]

[Misane narrows her eyes, trying to tap into some sort of power she hasn't discovered so far.

......]

Three.

[Misane, your power for the time being is giving Inspiration to the allies like Athena can do, this isn't it]

[catsgothistongue]

[He reveals his hand, closed in a fist. Not a single finger raised.]

Wrong.

[:3]

[cannotunravel]

I'm disappointed I wasn't granted omniscience. That might have been nice.

[Damn it, this world is unkind to her, she frowns]
