Punch A Tree Log
A Twisted Rumor
It's the day after the Fallen Star Meeting regarding the recent rumor. As morning brightens the city's night, stories are making their way from the bottom level to the top.
"The cherry blossom tree isn't going to hurt us, is it? It looks so scary."
For those who have learned the truth about rumors, this may especially distressing to hear. There's no time to wait: If anything is going to be done to save the tree's spirit, it must be done now.
The current plan is to address the tree spirit's wish to be remembered and acknowledged by holding a picnic by the lonely cherry blossom tree. Fallen Stars hope to reenact the lively Reblooming parties that had been happening on the upper levels all month. This tree, though the origin of that tradition, exists at the bottom level of Starsand City: Where spirits and kami are still feared. The hope is that this party will soothe the raging spirit and bring it peace... and, ideally, bring back all of the people who have recently gone missing.
But the meeting also ended on a note of caution. If the spirit will not peacefully give up the missing people, then more drastic measures may need to be taken. And... Spoiler alert, but this log is titled tree FIGHT.
Timeline of Events
This log will operate a bit different from normal! It's also an experiment, so if it doesn't work then apologies in advanced! In order to maintain an easy-to-follow timeline of events, there will be a top-level for each stage of the encounter. As the encounter progresses, new top-levels will be added to reflect each stage of the Rumor.
Character top-levels are still welcome, but please try to use the top-levels for time sensitive threads. Threadjacking is welcomed & encouraged, though please be respectful of one another. And of course, make use of the feedback section!
Backtagging is also still welcome. Event stages will be staggered over the course of the next week & past threads still have time to make an impact. Please don't feel rushed!

[Dazai shrugs lightly, his grin still mischievous as ever. However, that fades a bit at those questions. His expression turns a bit more distant as well.]
I suppose our goal would be merely to protect others. To solve any rumors that cross our path. It's the same as back home. Solving incidents and making things easier for people - human or no.
Personally, I'm not too stressed about returning home. But I know Atsushi has unresolved business there. He's...got a destiny to live up to. A fair bit ahead of him. So...yes and no.

I see.
Unfortunately, I cannot do much to hasten the process of returning you all home. That likely falls to the hands of the SpaceTime Kami, who is... 'missing.'
[She casts him a side glance, with her red eyes now glowing from her power. Checking if he caught her implication, that the 'missing' part was a lie. Hopefully that will make more sense as she follows up with;]
But I would appreciate your group not investigating cases of missing kami. You will create more problems than you solve.

Duly noted. We're only looking into rumors that could directly harm others. That's not what that is, so we'll not be looking for any M-I-A kami. You have my word.
[Unless it becomes absolutely vital to do so.]
