The most I can do is ask. The system allows us to reach out to you guys at certain times, so I can ask who's willing and who's taking cover and working covertly. We lost a lot of people that could have helped but that's only going to be a detriment if we let it be. If we have a ground team that's waiting for the entrance to the base to open, we can have a blitz team that strikes and earns us the access we need.
[There's a charming grin.] So yeah. That's exactly right. [But he hums to himself.] I almost wish I could put you in two places. Togusa, too. And maybe Matt and Li-Na. It would give us enough coverage otherwise.
The main thing I'm stuck on is stripping him of his abilities and how we're going to do that. If he's not using a staff, there's gotta be something else he's using. If it's his own body, well...murder wasn't exactly on the table. But siphoning out his abilities is a thought. I've been reading old files to get an idea of what the company was trying to do.

[it's a joke, but, like. is it? she's grinning until it hits her as an actual possibility, and she puts a hand to her chin, then points with her other hand.]
Hold onto that one. I like the idea of sucking away his abilities, and we'll do "reinforcements from the future" if we run out of anything else. Can you fuck with his soul like you were trying to do when I came back from the sixth layer? Just draw the magic powers part out of who he is? Or, like, there's the brain, too. If that microchip was data for the damn thing then you could probably reconstruct it.
[not that she's. keen on the idea. the more she thinks about it, the more she likes the idea of future Anna.]
no subject
And you're not worried about two of you running around simultaneously? [It's not the worst idea, even if it's risky.]
I think if I can get him to sit still long enough and get a sample I might? He's one of the originals so I'm not sure how much soul theory applies to him. That only happens, you know, when your world's destroyed and you're reincarnated for the most part. But I could probably temper with his abilities if we can "unhook" his genetic make-up, if you will.
So you think rewriting the chip could do it? [...it's a lot.] It has to be you guys. So let's go down the rabbit hole of doubles running around and future yous. You think that's good enough? If we bring back copies of you guys with your full memories and full powers and memories of Recollé.

[god. all of this has been leading back here, huh. the Gordian knots, the alternate timeline bullshit. draining memories, people leaving the app and falling back down the layers. these clues were here the whole time and she managed to blow past every single one of them. she's almost impressed with herself.]
I think it'll work if we can guarantee that they're all willing to work for the same cause. Which we definitely can't. I can only speak for myself. Plus, don't I already look like what everyone thinks of when they think grimdark future bullshit? [see, she can joke about her eye. sort of.] My own timeline's fucked enough by now anyway. Why not give it a try?

...it might be an idea I float with everybody else. There's so few of you now that it may not even make a huge difference if only some of you are upgraded versions of yourself. And you've all experienced timetravel now that a paradox might not happen if you go in knowing it's happening.
The most important things are the eye, dismantling the reach of power, and dismantling the power itself. The rest is all set-dressing we can try a handful of methods with. [He peers out from between his fingers.] ...what's the worst that could happen anymore? If it means "finishing" this world so Togusa's objective kicks in...I'll take it.
no subject
[all of this really is over her head. she doesn't really know what's gonna happen next or how they're gonna enact... everything that they gotta enact. instead, she picks up the grocery store cake and slides it on his desk, then pulls some cheap plastic utensils out of the grocery bag that's still in her lap.]
Come on. You got me. I can handle the brute force stuff and you know I'm good for that. You got Matthews for the magic shit, Togusa's got a tank or something... point is we got this. This is as calm as it's gonna get before the storm.
