Then instead of picking a fight with the allmighty devil, find a way to prove it!

He's grabbed her and is trying to stop Rider rescuing her. What more proof does she need...?

[Kotomine_Rin]

That is something you must figure out young padawan.
If you truly wish to save sakura, you must use a sharp tongue and your wits, not your strength.
There are many ways to approach it, surely you can think up of one.

Having GM'd for Mike...

He can't even come up with one most of the time.

I'm talking of Rider's viewpoint here. Obviously OOCly she can't prove something that isn't true.

But, aside from Sakura speaking up, I don't see how Rider can prove anything here. No-one in the room knows her, and any action Faust takes that doesn't cause harm to Sakura fits with his story just as much as with hers. Even if she was correct, I don't think there's anything she can do to convince people that Faust is a kidnapper that doesn't also result in harm to Sakura.

No need to be so acidic about it.
Trying to help you there, Mike, you should try to think outside the box, think of a way to appease Faust, to at the very least talk things out.
He is the devil, you cannot defeat the devil without beating him at his own game, and once you do, there is nothing he can do.
Challenge him to play fiddle or something for pete's sake.
Just dont fight.

The problem is that I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about Rider. And Rider considers Faust to be trying to hurt Sakura. There's nothing I can see to "appease" there. I'll have a look and see how Rider might react, but so far she has expressed her desire to protect Sakura several times, and Faust is not listening.

Also, Faust isn't the devil. He made a deal with the devil. That's not the same thing. Challenging him to a game won't work.

[SINIB]

that wasn't the point.

I've already posted as a reply to Henderson, Panda. I'm just waiting.

Kat I apologize if you think that I overstepped my bounds in my last post, I had to push the timeline a bit (and get out of the building) to keep pace with all the other happenings at the hospital. Skype me if you want me to retcon something.

[Kat]

Only the last part was ambiguous, but I had that explained.

[Elf]

Yo Kat, the next time I post with Fore, can I have her at least sense that someone's spying on her?

[Kat]

Yolf generally said that not, but I could rule that little enmity towards Forest's attitude leaked through in spite of use Obfuscate, so she could. Dramatic twists over mechanics when appropiate.
