text; locked from bernkastel & ange; fail-locked from battler & eva-beatrice

[tenminutes]

Does anyone know any magic that can make it so that someone's bored no matter what they do, even things that they used to get a good laugh out of? Is there a way that someone without magic could do that to someone with magic?

I've been trying to think of the worst possible punishment game I can for someone and the kind of person this would be for. It took a while to decide on, but I think something like this might be it.

[ You know, now that she knows Ange is alive and she doesn't have to worry about respecting any wishes like Ange always getting mad at her for doing stupid shit or putting herself in danger. ]

[S-SIGHING WEARILY YURI...]

[ifbymyhands]

I knew you'd say that.

The old cat just likes dragging up dead things. Just send her some catnip or tie a bell to her. That's how you annoy a cat, right...? I don't know.

[yeah and he'll never get through to her about this he knows.]

The best way to bore a witch is to be repetitive, for everything to be a trap in a maze and there's just no escape and they have to repeat the exact same events over and over.

At least, I know Bern hates something along the lines of that. That's a start.

[tenminutes]

Well, if I'm going to judge someone it's going to be from my experience with them, not because of what someone says about them.

[tenminutes]

I guess "boredom" covers both for witches.

[tenminutes]

She'd hate to be bored, right? I'd rather focus on something I know she'll hate than little harassment.

[ That's the kind of thing she'd do to Eva-Beatrice, the little harassing stuff. ]

So maybe some kind of timeloop or something instead of just asking for a potion to take away her feelings of anything but boredom?

[ You're a bro for helping Battler.. ]

[shinjaeba]

I'm sure she'd hate having a bell filled with catnip tied to her tail.

[She really doesn't have any good suggestions or she would have done it herself.]

[tenminutes]

Great, then you can distract her while I sneak the potion I'm going to try to get from Gellert into her tea. She did say she didn't like it watery, after all, might as well make it extra potent!

[fortheworld]

There's a difference between rumour and warnings; the latter are made because people are concerned for you.

[ifbymyhands]

Depends on the witch.

[chestboard]

Yeah, that's it exactly, a timeloop where she's powerless of the events, where they happen over and over exactly the same.

The gameboards here are relatively the same but changes here and there just to keep people guessing, so of course she's not entirely bored with that.

[no problem yuri!!!]

I thought you were going to get all pissy with me for trying to do anything related to her.

[ She's not going to tell him that she tried to lock it, but she'll admit that at least. ]

Thanks.

[tenminutes]

I tend to be pretty forgiving when it comes to violence if the person can improve.

[ Like that time Naoi completely slaughtered the SSS and then tried to wipe her memories out, so she let him into the SSS the day after since he stopped. ]

[tenminutes]

These kinds of witches, I mean. Not witches from other worlds.

[ifbymyhands]

Yeah, true.

[shinjaeba]

--eh?! You want me to do what?!

[fortheworld]

Even so; is it not better to prevent said violence before it can come to pass? Prior warnings being the simplest foreknowledge.

Speaking of violence in general terms. [before you use your 'I'm dead anyway' clause]

[tenminutes]

It was your idea, so you get to try to tie the catnip bell to her tail. You're a witch too, right? So you'll stand a better chance at succeeding.

[tenminutes]

A lot of people are violent because they're scared. [ A pause. ] Bernkastel's not one of them, but there are a lot of people who are.

[fortheworld]

[...Oriko falls silent.]


...True enough.

[tenminutes]

[ Yuri smiles, not wanting to ask Oriko about her silence. Whatever it's about, it's not her business unless Oriko brings it up. ]

Just so we're clear, I'm not violent because I'm scared either, I just find it fun sometimes.

[fortheworld]

Truly reassuring.

[she says before she can stop herself oops-]

[chestboard]

[he just shrugs at that, actually.]

Even I get tired of being the big bad sorcerer all the time.
