[ Is this team somehow three drift auras? ]

I'm happy to hear it. Good luck to the four of you.

[teenrebellion]

[ it's four drift auras, actually. ]

Thanks - same to you. Though I guess this makes us competition now.

[factoring]

[oh my god]

Then, may the best team win.

[teenrebellion]

We will.

[ just gonna be a little shit about it ]

They never said we can't still work together, though - just that only one of us can actually win the whole thing.

[factoring]

We'll see what happens.

There aren't any rules about collusion, as far as the rulebook goes.

[teenrebellion]

It does feel like the kind of game where we should abuse every loophole we can. If there's no rule against it, then it doesn't hurt to at least try.

[factoring]

Your team doesn't have any healing auras, right?

[teenrebellion]

No. We've all got Drift Aura.

[ looks... away......... ]

[factoring]

[ ... ]

[teenrebellion]

[ don't judge them. ]

[factoring]

You're all very slippery.

[ This is like having a team of all AGI digimon and nothing else. ]

[teenrebellion]

Something like that. We probably won't even need healing.

[ with the tone of someone trying to convince himself ]

But if we did, there are enough people who can that someone will help us.

[factoring]

[The expression is measured.]

There are ten people you can talk to to get healing.

[Though does anybody want to go to Rang for healing.]

[teenrebellion]

[ deadeyes. ]

Is this a hint to ask you?

[ he's read the profiles. ]

[factoring]

Yeah.

[Using her psych is a little weird, but it's just a matter of getting used to it.]

[teenrebellion]

[ hmmmm. ]

I mean, we already agreed to an alliance with another team, but it wouldn't hurt to work with you guys, too...

[factoring]

Take some time to think about it before you lock in your decision.

[teenrebellion]

I'll ask the others what they think and let you know.

...But I mean, even if they don't want to go with it as a team, we can still help each other as just us. Though I don't know what you'd be getting out of it.

[factoring]

I'm speaking as an individual at the moment. I'll talk to them if you want to make it an official alliance.

I can treat it like work and ask for some amount of money.

[teenrebellion]

There's nothing to lose in trying.

[ shrugs. ]

But even if it does turn into a team thing, I don't want to promise anyone else's cash. I have some to spare, so we can make that work between us, if it comes up.

[factoring]

Alright. Just know that the offer is open for you either way.

[But also please try not to get wrecked.]

[teenrebellion]

I'll keep it in mind, yeah. [ ... ] We might need it after practicing. Teleporting can get kind of rough if you miss where you meant to go.

[ he might be a little bruised up already ): ]

[factoring]

I can imagine.

[A lot of hitting walls and missing the target?]

[teenrebellion]

We'll figure it out. As long as no one breaks any bones, we'll be fine. A few bruises won't kill anyone.
