TEAM MEETING
Who: Everyone
Where: Butterfly House/common room
When: Night of arrival
What: Team Meeting
Why: There's stuff to say.

Kiriko stood at the head of the room, in front of the unlit fireplace, arms folded across her chest as she waited for the last few people to settle in.

"Before we start," she began, eyes following the last of the kitchen stragglers as they entered the room. "I just wanted to say... I was wrong, that time. Running away wouldn't have gotten us anywhere. But, I don't think that fighting would have helped, either. It was a mess, and I'm sorry for my part in it."

The apology was sincere, but her posture vaguely defensive as she scanned the room, waiting either for someone else to speak up or for enough silence to pass that she could move on.

	Kei sits for a few moments in stunned silence, looking blindsided but genuinely happy to hear his best friend's voice. "He'll never change..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Toru looked dumbfounded, or perhaps flabbergasted.

"H-hey, Tachibana-san, i-isn't that-"

He stared for several seconds at the cat, trying to process what it said. "W-wait, all of that is seriously happening? I saw those posts on the network, but now all of those guys are imprisoned?"

The otaku bounded to his feet a moment later. "W-wait, Neko Shogun, is a guy named Takagi Noboru there? Is he okay?"

	Neko Shogun removes the banner from its back and uses it like a scroll to write on while the others talk. It is, apparently, taking down the message to be relayed back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yoshimi just nods at Toru's question; it's another long moment and a series of deep breaths before she manages to find her voice, and when she finally addresses the cat, it's all she can do not to sound completely hysterical.

"I'd have taught you how, I promise, just... things got in the way." Dying, in particular, had served to complicate matters, but that strikes her as such an awkward thing to reveal via magical text messaging. She doesn't trust herself to explain the parts about alternate timelines or pocket dimensions, either, not with her heart busy pounding a million miles a minute and most of her brain preoccupied with the knowledge that the angels have her boyfriend.

"Mikio-kun is trustworthy, and we'll be there as soon as we can find an opening." She has no idea whether or not she's telling the truth, but she'd rather say it than not. "Just hang in there, okay? Lots of love. Don't die or anything." You know, again.

Disciples of Raphael? Kozue's jaw was agape--I mean, this whole thing was shocking, her life had pretty much been a non-stop barrage of shock since they'd gotten their memories back, since even before then, but on top of all that, to be titled a "disciple" of Seiji? Dumpy, meek Seiji?

Ugh, what was life coming to? Curled up on the couch, it took her a few moments to process all of it, which she did, piece by piece. Starting with the most important details, and working her way down; which was why, after another moment, she asked a crucial question.

"…… all of our faces were seriously on a billboard? Tell me they at least used flattering pictures. Please."

About halfway through the message, Kiriko had taken to her nearby laptop rather than standing there in stunned silence. She had about half of what was said recorded, and certainly all of the important notes, including that Yoshimi's dead boyfriend sounded like a complete and utter idiot. With the document saved, she attended to Kozue's question, taking a guess and heading for the governing offices of Millenium City's website.

Sure enough...

"He's right. Come look at this - we're all here." She turned the screen around, displaying a collage of their pictures - mostly from school, desaturated and deliberately picked to be mostly unfriendly-looking - under a large read header: DANGEROUS.

It was a voice he remembered from class. The familiarity was nice, but the message... well, that was not so nice. It was hard to believe even. His grandparents hadn't been involved with him in quite awhile and his parents weren't even in Japan... The closest person he could think of that they might've taken was his roommate. Isao felt a little bad that he never gave him the money he owed, but maybe any grudge his roommate had for that would spare him from whatever danger awaited. The less association the better, right?

Worse yet were the photos of the team apparently plastered everywhere. Isao really did have to wonder if anyone would think of him as dangerous. At least in comparison with some of the others, his stature was usually far from threatening. He gave an almost pouty look, briefly rustling with his hair and wondering if the color sent any bad signals. It was forgotten quickly enough though.

"How long is a few weeks going to be?" He didn't think he would mind being stuck here for a certain amount of time, but figuring out exactly how long would've been nice. "Will we be able to do anything between now and then?"

Tom ran a hand over his face, then crossed his arms.

"That is what I meant when I said "We are the thing they fear the most in the world"" Then he quirked a brow.

"You guys didn't... realize this would happen? ...Yeah I guess the efforts of insurgency wouldn't be a top reading priority. Like I said, I'm working on a plan, but this is going to take... subtly and effort." He looked at Yoshi.

"Tell him to keep calm, make sure no one tries anything. We'll be handling this eventually, but for right now... Iburi is dangerous for every single person in it."

At the sight of his mug shot, even more unflattering than usual (which was quite a feat, considering the person in question), Toru crossed his arms and sulked.

"This isn't right. This just... really isn't right." He pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration, looking down at the floor. "Are our friends and everyone going to be okay in that prison? I'm guessing they won't throw them into Paradise like they did to us, but I doubt the loved ones of Millenium City's Most Wanted are going to get preferential treatment there or anything."

He thought of Noboru and Isamu in particular, but remembered that they weren't the only ones who would be in the prison. Classmates, family members, Shingo, and even jerks like Kajiko were apparently in there.

"We need to rescue them as soon as this opportunity comes, then. And..." The boy gestured again at the word DANGEROUS on Kiriko's screen. "Did we ever hear why we're the most dangerous fugitives in this city, exactly?"

	Misaki grimaced glancing over Kiriko's shoulder and frowned at the picture muttering, "They could have at least not used the one where I was just getting over that head cold." She shivered at the thought of her mother and father locked up, she did want to rescue them but at the same time something was bothering her. "What if it's a trap?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"It's obvious - they're counting on us wanting to come and save our friends," Kai said in answer to Misaki. "So they'll be ready to fight us when we come."

There was no question what Kai wanted - the angels had his mother, his father, his boyfriend, his classmates. If he could have, he would've bolted for the prison right now, but...

He swallowed. "So there's no point in rushing in without a plan."

He looked to Tom. "What else needs to be done before we can go?"
