Jashinchan(0)Jashin-chan0,100||<黑点2><回忆>187BGM_Sneak:...And that's the plan.
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(0)0,100||:... +Huh?
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:It's perfect and flawless, isn't it?
Weaver(7)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(7)0,100||:I don't even need to run it through my neural cloud to know that your plan has more holes in it than a fishing net!
Weaver(7);Jashinchan(0)Jashin-chan0,100||:Fishing net?
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:...Never mind.
()||:Ouroboros collects herself and starts thinking.
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:The plan is to use the same magic circle to teleport Yurine to the Griffin base.+According to what you said, we need four people in the circle when you activate it for the plan to succeed. +One of those four people is going to be Yurine.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(5)Jashin-chan0,100||:Yup, that's right!
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(5)0,100||:Then when we add those three Dolls, it'll be just right.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(0)Jashin-chan0,100||:So you're saying...
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(0)0,100||:Since they want to go back to the Griffin base anyway, it's killing two birds with one stone.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(5)Jashin-chan0,100||:You're so kind-hearted, Little Snake.
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(5)0,100||:Shut up.+So when the time comes, I'll make small talk with them to lower their guard, then lure them away by telling them that Yurine has found a solution. +We'll lead them to a deserted place and forcibly shut them down before hauling them back and putting them together with Yurine.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:That's right! It's a perfect plan!
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(7)0,100||:No, there's a critical flaw in it.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(0)Jashin-chan0,100||:What is that?
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(0)0,100||:I've been stripped of my full power. Right now, I can't hack into their neural clouds, nor am I capable of shutting them down by force.
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(0)Jashin-chan0,100||:If it's just shutting them down, wouldn't making them fall asleep do the trick?
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(0)0,100||:Do you have a way to do that?
Weaver(3);Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:Hehe, I happen to know a sleeping spell, which, according to legend, a witch once used on a princess...
Weaver(3)Ouroboros;Jashinchan(7)0,100||:Wait a minute, does that even work on a machine?
Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:Sure it does, I use it every time the TV at home pitches a fit and refuses to turn off. +All you need to do is gently place your hand behind the machine's ear and recite the incantation in your heart.+I'll imbue your finger with mana. Just use it before the mana dissipates.

Jashinchan(5)Jashin-chan0,100||<黑屏2>385<关闭蒙版>:Little Snake, don't you have something you want to say to her?
Jashinchan(2)Jashin-chan0,100||GF_Jyashinchan_Story_Jinbouchou:Hurry up and talk to her so we can get her in the bag!
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:... +NZ, your...
NZ75(4)NZ75;Weaver(3)||:What's wrong?
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:Don't you...+Don't you think you ought to change out the piston in your elbow?+Dammit, what the hell do these garbage Dolls usually talk about?!
Jashinchan(2)Jashin-chan0,100||:Hey!!! What are you guys talking about?!
NZ75(4)NZ75||:Huh?! Are you showing concern for me?+W-what's going on, why is she being so nice all of a sudden...?
Jashinchan(2)Jashin-chan0,100||:You're amazing, how the hell did you interpret that as concern?!
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:...+I wish I could just knock her out and drag her away...
NZ75(4)NZ75||:I was supposed to switch it out next week. Maybe it's wearing out even faster because I've been carrying heavy stuff all day.+It seems I was wrong about her. I thought she was cold and unfeeling, but turns out she has a sensitive and caring side.
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:Oh.+How should I respond now?! Dammit, why is talking so damn tiresome?!
Jashinchan(2)Jashin-chan0,100||:Why are you wasting so much time on that nonsense? Just get her already!
()||:An awkward silence descends upon them.
NZ75(4)NZ75||:This is unbearable, say something already, NZ!
Weaver(7)Ouroboros||:Why is the internet here so damn slow here? Why isn't it giving me any results for "everyday conversation topics for garbage Dolls?!"
Jashinchan(5)Jashin-chan0,100||:Actually, Yurine said that she'd made some progress toward sending you back.+Looks like I need to step in after all!
NZ75(4)NZ75||:Really?! Miss Yurine is amazing!+Then we'd better go find CZ and P90 and head back to the apartment!+Thank goodness, we can go back to the base at last!+I wonder if I should invite Ouroboros to dinner or something when we get back...
Weaver(3)Ouroboros||:Good.+The hell are you so anxious for? I don't need you sticking your nose into this, you stupid snake!
Jashinchan(5)Jashin-chan0,100||:Let's go, then!+This is great, that approving look that Little Snake just gave me must mean she's secretly praising me!
Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:Hehe, leave KO-ing NZ or whatnot to me too!
()||BGM_Empty:As the three of them proceed into an alley with various things on their minds...
NPC-Yusakoji(1)Yusa||ClothingUpBGM_Reverse:Excuse me!

NPC-Yusakoji(1)Yusa||:Are you trying to get out of paying your tab again?
Jashinchan(4)Jashin-chan0,100||:What? Why would someone of MY esteemed stature still need to pay their bill?
NPC-koji(2)Kouji0,300||:(Cold voice of a young ice demon - "You must also pay for what you did before!")
Jashinchan(2)Jashin-chan0,100||:You little mole, getting cocky now, aren't you? You want to fight, is that it?!
NPC-Yusakoji(1)Yusa||:A mole... Did you just call her a mole again?

Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||:I'm not afraid of you! I'm not alone this time!
NZ75(4)NZ75||:Please go on, Miss Yusa. I support you in this.

()||<黑点2>385:Jashin-chan fakes a flying kick, but instead she rolls into the queue in front of the shaved ice stand.
Jashinchan(7)Jashin-chan0,100||ClothingUp:I'm confiscating your shaved ice!
()||AVG_tableware:With incredible speed, Jashin-chan devours all the shaved ice in the hands of the customers near the shaved ice stand.
()Customer A||:...
()Customer B||:What just happened?
()Customer C||:This must be the work of an enemy Stand! It has to be!

()Waiting Customer C||:Help me— Help—
()||Stop_AVG_loop:The angry customers who were shouting just seconds ago are instantly transformed into ice statues, standing motionless under the scorching sun.
