[text] Welcome to Hinoto-Ri...?

[putonagoodshow]

My name is Ideo, I'm one of the first arrivals here. If anyone has any questions that they have not received answers to, feel free to ask here. I will do my best to answer if I am able to, or at least direct you to someone who can.

[Compared to his previous network post, this is much more brief and much less showy- he's probably hard at work trying to see if he can help with the teleportation fiasco.]

Which is more common?

[Translation; which is more expendable?]

[putonagoodshow]

That's an odd enough question that I don't have an answer. Technically speaking, we have no official census on the support-to-combat ratio, though such has been proposed. If I had to guess however, I'd state that combat-oriented personas are the more common variety, speaking from the evidence of my seniors.

Sweet, thanks for the info man.

Anyway, I've got another question about our best friends the Anoli.

How did you guys find out about those dicks? Did they attack? Did they start recruiting like a political party or what?

[putonagoodshow]

They attacked first, actually. They didn't start attempts at recruitment until after that fact. As far as I know, they've basically given up on that front however.

[getoutclaus]

[Hm... Santa was kind of hoping to be recruited, so that sucks. It's not even something he can just ask Ideo about.]

Maybe they're playing it cool for now, or something? Who can really be certain?

So did their first attack happen when you were here or did Butterfly tell you about it?

casually does hella old tags like a boss

[putonagoodshow]

Most likely they are waiting to "feel out" the new Guests to judge if they should even try.

The first attacks occurred in the time that we had arrived, yes. Us seven have fought them many times now. It's a relief to have more people around that are willing and able to help.

You guys dealt with the attacks on your own!? You must be pretty badass, dude!

I guess it must be a worry that the Anoli could start pulling in guests though, right? Unless you know for a fact they can't do the stuff Butterfly can do.

Re: B)

I'm not a Support user, but I wish I was. My Persona is useless on it's own, actually.

[He won't even mince words if it involves talking down about his abilities.]

The Anoli themselves cannot pull in guests...but they have had people show up for their side. We're not quite sure how, I will admit. It's one of the matters we are attempting to uncover.

[getoutclaus]

[Faced with two questions - why was Ideo's persona useless on its own and how true was that last statement - Santa completely ignored the first question not matter how curious he had been]

You seriously don't know?!

he's deadpanning behind the computer right now

[putonagoodshow]

They aren't exactly forthcoming with information on this subject.

ROOD

[getoutclaus]

Your higher ups or the Anoli guys?

sassy z-snap qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrl

[putonagoodshow]

Anoli. As far as I am aware, none of us Seven or the Wise Men know anything about this.

[getoutclaus]

Can't be all that Wise then, can they?

[Apply Bufu to burn.]

just wait till anon-kun nags you forever, santa

[putonagoodshow]

Sadly, we're not omniscient. Only three of us ten are support-focused as it is.
