Some people skipped ahead, it is not the next day yet (not everywhere at least).

Time dilation is a common occurrence in the nexus, some people go grocery shopping and meet themselves for coffee on the way there/home. :P

I'm considering how to respond to Daiki's post - mainly because there's not much Lyco Aptera can do to help remove the tortured souls from the stakes.
accursed lack of posable thumbs :V

I'm kind-of assuming our group is in the earlier part of night 2 already, because Kiyoshi and Rider wouldn't arrive late in the night (Kioyshi is only 11), and because I want to send Rider to meet up with Wynn as soon as Kiyoshi goes to bed (which now has to be on night 2).

Nope, Minato is still on night 1. I do not see how what time it was in your world when you left would have anything to do with the time in the nexus when you arrive. Time is not synchronized between worlds is it? I was under the assumption that it was possible to vanish from your world at midday and find yourself in the nexus at midnight seconds later.

Yeah skipping to Night 2 already is a bit of stretch.

The problem is that, by the time we're finished with night 1, everyone else will be on night 2 already (because Kiyoshi has to sleep some time). And, I want to be able to interact with people who are on night 2 without going through an entire day of stuff first (since Kioyshi is obviously not going to become nocturnal).

When Rider and Kiyoshi find somewhere to stay, Rider will then have to go looking for prana (away from Minato, obviously). Since I want her to bump into Wynn, that means being on the same time as everyone else, not a day behind.

Yeah, which is why I wasn't too pleased with the sudden time-skip. You didn't wait for other people to actually be in a position to skip, and there's stuff I need to do at night rather than in the day, so I don't want to skip past the night as would be implied by the current position. Elf suggested just starting on night 2, which works for me fine, but it's obviously a problem if I'm switching between two groups that are out of sync with each other.

Well we could just say that it's almost morning to narrow the gap, and if I can actually get a pace going my posts will start coming much faster.

My plan was for Minato to offer rooms to everyone during inevitable conversation time, get his pay from The Absurdly powerful old man with an enormous mustache, then probably go to bed.

Then once the day comes I focus on Mako, because Minato doesn't do much during the day.

That doesn't really solve the problem. Rider can't go out looking for prana until Kiyoshi is asleep, and since everyone else is now on day 2 we'll have a significant mismatch there. "Closing the gap" isn't any good because the gap is still there, and by the time we've got to the second night everyone will have skipped again.

Well, yeah, that was how I expected things to go, but I'm not sure any more. If I go back with you it seems like I'll be permanently out of sync with everyone else and won't be able to go after Wynn due to people repeatedly time-skipping before I get a chance.

Well, Kiyoshi will mostly be active during the day. Rider, however, is active permanently (unless she wants to sleep). Which is another issue with what you're suggesting. Kiyoshi has to sleep, but Rider then has a large gap of time to fill, where I intended for her to go towards Wynn.

Rider has independent action Mike, she could last for a day without a prana source you know.

Yes, I know, but she has no idea when or if Sakura will show up. So, she needs to make sure she doesn't run out when she can.

What I am saying is that she can last though day 2 without worrying.

She does not need to arrive in night 2. Especially since you chose to interact with people still experiencing the first night.

In terms of Rider's prana need, no, she doesn't. But, on an OOC level, I'd like to go after Wynn for sexual stuff. I don't mind waiting until night 2 to do that, but I'm worried that, by the time I get to the point in night 2 where I can do it, you guys will have skipped ahead again, because Kiyoshi and Rider aren't going to just do nothing for the whole day.

And, honestly, the time for those characters isn't well-defined. They've not interacted with anyone else, so they easily could be on night 2. Plus, I chose to interact with them before I realised everyone was going to skip forward quite so quickly.

The issue I have is not waiting until night 2, it's that I strongly suspect you guys will skip again before I get to the point that I can actually act, and I think that in general the group I'm with is going to get behind.
