81 -- [locked to those involved in Operation: Avenge Jinx]

Alright, guys. I talked to a friend of mine about planning this whole thing and I don't feel like we're ready just yet. We still have lots of training to do and I have to be completely confident so that you guys don't get harmed in the process.

So, I'm opening the floor to you all to questions about my training methods or any questions you have about myself or if you have any concerns about how I'm running this shindig.

Yeah how much training is alot? Because well...

1. Jinx will want in if we wait too long.

2. We should find this guy and nail him before he can heal.

3. The Longer we wait the more likely it is he''ll strike again.

Too many cooks spoil the soup, Noir.

That may be a good idea in theory, but it doesn't sound logical. Sure, he'll probably heal up, however I'm not confident right now of how well we'll pull this mission off.

While that is a possibility to happen, I'm... willing to let that happen, Noir. I have to do a lot of things besides train all of you, such as make plans and that stuff.

Please be patient, Noir. That's all I ask.

Uh huh...but you forget the part where this cook is the one we're trying to avenge and she's gonna be pissed if we all go out and get in a scrap and don't let her come if she's healthy enough.

I prefer to put faith in our skills separately and not overthink a good plan.

You can't seriously be willing to let someone end up like Jinx or worse.

Patience may be a virtue but it ain't my virtue lady.

... You misinterpret my point, Noir. Too many fighters on the field, too many inexperienced people just cluttering things won't get the job done. Now, I'm not calling Jinx a weak fighter, I'm just saying that too many people on the battlefield will make it congested, therefore making the whole operation fail and making it seem like our efforts are wasted.

Again, I talked to a brilliant strategist who I fought with before and I came out with no cuts or wounds on me at all, so I'd like to see those same efforts happen. You are not in charge of this mission, I am and therefore, I will not go send you all out with no proper plan set into action. Furthermore, I won't have innocent people killed in this fight, either.

No, I'm not, but what other options do we have? I still want to make sure I know your powers and make sure they're good enough to actually send the people I'm confident in to get this fight done and over with with little to no causalities in the process.

Again, while it may be something for you, it's not something for me. Please be patient, Noir.

Are you okay, Auntie Hoshi?

You seem upset.

...Tell me one thing.

Am I that strict in my village in the future?

Everyone listens to Auntie Hoshi. But you don't have to act like that to make them listen.

...good. I'm glad.

You should at least talk to her about this.

You can plan till the cows come home but it's not going to mean a thing if we wait too long. If you're worried because you're responsible for our safety then suck it up. We all volunteered for this and we knew the risks.

If you just want to make sure we have a plan that works then don't beat around the bush. The longer we wait the worse this is gonna get.

The only reason I'm waiting is because I'm not stupid enough to think I can take this guy on my own. He beat Jinx and I know she's a better fighter then me.

Maybe. My point still stands.

I realize you did, Noir. I realize you all did, HOWEVER that does not mean that I'm going to send you all out into battle blindly. An unorganized battle plan isn't the best option we have at the moment and I'm acting in the interests of everyone around me.

... I KNOW that! ~~...remain calm, Hoshi. Remain calm...~~ I don't know what else I can do or say to make you see it my way of how I know he's a worthy match, so please work with me.

...thank God you're not, Noir.

I see your way, I just don't agree with it.

I agreed to work with you on this because you know the target better then anyone. Don't get frustrated when I'm not 100% behind you based entirely on my respect for Jinx.

I'll drop it for now but don't leave me hanging.
