[UUUGH IT'S JUST SOOOOO MUCH TO DEAL WITH]

Was the whole healing thing you did an. . . "Arts?" Because that seems more like magic to me.

And the ARCUS is the conduit? The catalyst?

[chevaliered]

Two different things. I guess this one works more like magic? But it's based off an Art. Arts need an ACRUS and an orbment to work, whereas magics natural, works differently, and limited to a small group of people.

[ he folds his arms. ]

ARCUS is a comms device. It's small and portable, and you can put orbments -- like... little marbles, I guess? -- in it to use different Arts, depending on which orbments you're using. Vio said I can buy it back if I want the feel to be the same, but it'd be a voucher I could use somewhere else, you know?

[supercatty]

[this is not helpful for her in discerning the difference between ARTS and MAGIC, tbh]

. . . okay. . .

[but the ARCUS, at least, mirrors technology she has back home, so. she knows what a comms device is!!!]

And yeah, that makes sense. If you can use the-- Art-- without the conduit, then why waste a voucher on a conduit, you know?

[chevaliered]

[ trails doesn't explain SHIT apart from when it does and it explains so much i forget the explanation and circle back to trails doesn't explain SHIT ]

Exactly my point. Save a voucher, use it on something else. Everyone's happy, especially me with more vouchers.

[supercatty]

[honestly that's super 100% true and valid, as someone who is canon familiar through tocs3. trails be like this!!]

Soooo. . . how much did the "script" and the "healing" thing cost you? That's two pretty big purchases.

[chevaliered]

[ thank you for your knowledge and understanding in these trying times WHERE ARE YOUR VACUUMS EREBONIA, YOU HAVE WAR MECHS ]

The script was three vouchers, and the healing shenanigan was six. If I add a voucher each week I think I can make the healing more potent too, which if people are gonna keep disappearing like you did, might not be a bad thing to have up my sleeve.

[supercatty]

[THE WASHING MACHINES THAT ARE CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY? NEVER SEEN BEFORE? I DIE]

. . .

Wait, so you had nine vouchers?

[KIND OF POUTING ABOUT THIS TBH]

[chevaliered]

Yup. Six and three makes nine.

I didn't buy anything last week, don't sulk.

[supercatty]

[UUUUGH]

I only got three last week, and two this week. How are you all earning so many?!

[chevaliered]

... Are you talking to Vio? Doing your extra credit and tasks?

2/2

[chevaliered]

Wait, two? What did you do last week?

[supercatty]

I did every single task last week.

[grumble grumble grouch]

. . . I haven't done my extra credit, though.

[for REASONS]

[chevaliered]

[ hm ]

Do it then, it gets you a voucher.

Okay hold on, you did … debate and the clone fucking task? [ say it louder for the people on the other side of the dorm, crow ]

[supercatty]

[why does he have to PUT IT LIKE THAT]

[GROANS]

Yes. I did all four. . . clone tasks.

And I took part in the debate, too. I also went on that stupid little adventure.

[so why only two vouchers, seasonality. why!!]

[chevaliered]

Did you vote?

[supercatty]

Yes? Obviously?

. . . but not for the right person.

[chevaliered]

Then how the hell do you only have two vouchers, you should have at least three?

[supercatty]

I don't know. Do we get vouchers just for voting?

[she doesn't]

[know how vouchers work, really]

[chevaliered]

… I mean. I was assuming so, but you’re throwing all my assumptions off? People have been saying you get extra vouchers for voting correctly, and when I think about what I did the first week here — voting for Kaoruko, my task and talking to Vio, it adds up to the four I got that week.

But you did three things and got two vouchers.

[ … ]

Vio confirmed you get vouchers for talking to your dorm leader, extra credit, for taking part in extra-curriculars (although she did say that was “sometimes”?), doing tasks … and for good behaviour, whatever that counts as. She didn’t actually confirm voting gets you vouchers.

[supercatty]

[. . . tail flick. . .]

I'm thinking extra credit probably counts for a lot more than we realize. That's the only thing I haven't done compared to everyone else who has gotten way more vouchers than me.

And here I thought doing all the tasks would get me a ton of vouchers.

[chevaliered]

... Maybe it does? I don't think we're gonna get exact answers out of the dorm heads -- Vio would tell me if we got extra vouchers for correct votes, like I said. You gonna see about doing extra credit this week and see if it changes anything?

[ ... ]

That'd probably make it too easy. I'm just trying to zero in on which one gives winter points now.

[supercatty]

[GROANS]

Yeah. I guess so.

[but she WON'T LIKE IT]

[chevaliered]

[ he sticks out his tongue briefly. ]

Suck it up, buttercup. Complaining about not having enough vouchers and then complaing about having to do the thing to earn vouchers is an amateur move.

[supercatty]

It was more like, I was hoping I could get away with not having to do the extra credit and just compensate for that in other areas.

Obviously, that didn't work.

[she did ALL FOUR TASKS and still only got TWO VOUCHERS]

[chevaliered]

Obviously, or you’d be sitting on a voucher throne.

[ sigh ]

C’mon. Stop running from your extra credit.
