Mm. I'm not really familiar with western ones and since we seem to be coming across them per week, I figured it prudent to fix that. They've been rather informative so far.
[ i honestly hope to god if/when it happens, toi turns into a werekappa ]
And some of the effects we've been experiencing as well. [ points to his Werewolf notes because that sure was happening in the midst of everything else last week. ] This may give us a better idea of how to handle whatever else happens as the days and weeks go by.

And, potentially figuring out more about Master Blue themself.
For now, it's mostly just a lot of reading. Looking for anything that might be helpful to know. Things that might reference to experiences we've had. Which book would be the easiest to reference for future occasions. Things like that.
It's necessary for our line of work. Knowing exactly how history remembers certain events... It's quite difficult to keep history on track if you don't know what happens..!
[ hori's gotten to the point he's just fucking with everyone because it gets tiring repeating the same lore over and over again. so he nods very seriously ]
It's impossible to keep your enemies from changing things if you don't know how it's been recorded.
Their mission is to change time as we know it to their own benefit. Those of us who are able to follow them are tasked with not only defeating them but making sure history does not change too drastically from human memory.
As time passes, they've certainly become more sly in their tricks. Whoever leads them has learned quite well how to make our jobs harder than it already is.
[ nothing like killing your former master to keep history on its course right? ]
