#Airisu: The Crow and the Witch
Okiku Part II (Airisu POV): Post 50
#Wss366 Warp #TimeTravelAuthors Whatever“Hurry,” Sumika said, holding out the basket. “Lady Osakabe’s crows are coming.”
I looked towards the castle and saw black dots growing larger by the second. It was too late to escape, so I did the only thing possible: I hopped into the basket.
“Clicky, clack, crolark.” It was cramped and smelled nasty in there. The only saving grace was that I could peer through the #warped weave.
Mistress draped a kimono sleeve over the basket, and my panic swelled. I had to use the human portion of my brain to force it down, reminding myself that if I struggled, I would damage my wings and feathers.
“Ack!!!” I cawed.
“Quiet! They’ll hear you!”
This was hard. I considered sticking my head out. That would make things much better. Then I heard a jumble of large-bills cawing.
“I don’t recognise her,” cawed the first voice.
“She's an outsider,” responded a second voice.
“I sense magic. Has a kitsune possessed her?” asked a third jungle crow.
“We must tell the Lady,” the second large-billed cawed.
“Clicktoo, look for a kitsune,” a commanding voice said. “The rest of you fly to the Lady and inform her a spirit summoner lurks in the town. I’ll watch her and come later.”
There was the sound of wings and then silence.
“Ha ha,” I thought. “My mistress is so smart! We showed those stupid spawn of a cowbird.”
I peeked out between the willow lathes and saw we were moving down the road. That explained the basket’s rocking. Up and down, I bounced, knocking against the sides. It was all I could do not to swear or say, “Stop that, you lumbering ox!”

Thinking more about #Nintendo's #PalWorld #lawsuit, which claims that many of the mechanics, such as the #PalBall, are too similar to #Pokemon's mechanics, like the #PokeBall.
Wondering if it would be a good idea for #PocketPair to take a cue from #BugSnax, and replace the "ball" with a cyllindrical "trap". Perhaps they can take inspiration from #GhostBusters, and have some sort of energy based trap which opens at the top and sucks the magic monsters in. They should definitely be leaning hard into the #MonsterCollecting genre's roots of #Yokai, #Spirit entities, and #mythological #cryptids.
They might be able to avoid some damages if they lose this or have to settle in a few years by just changing up a few aesthetics, and I think the game itself would benefit from this: I personally think the Pal Ball looks odd and out of place as a mechanic, like it's just there to copy Pokemon.
Then again, changing things might be an admission of guilt? I'm not a lawyer.
