Tell, tell!☆

What goes on in the (after)life of a yo-kai, or the life of one involved with yo-kai?

[tattle-talk]

OH. MY. GOSH. YOU LIKE, DID NOT, JUST SAY THAT.

I like, DON'T say LIKE that much, like GOSH. You guys are like, so rude.

Like, anyways, so like, I came back to like, take my medal back, which like, I would have came up with myself, so like, my idea. And so like I snuck into the human's house in like, the middle of the night, and I found like, the book, medallium, like whatever, I don't care what it's like, called.

So then like, I opened it, and like, took my medal back, cause like, gosh, they like, don't deserve it. And I like, took the fake medals too, cause like, those yo-kai don't like, deserve an ENTIRE section dedicated to THEM, but then like, so like I flipped to the next page, and there was ANOTHER section, but like, it was like, weird and just had names??

So like, I was flipping through it, like, looking for my name, AND THEN LIKE, I saw YOUR name in it and MY name wasn't anywhere?? YOU THREE are conspiring against me AREN'T YOU!! I'm like, blocking this channel, and keeping like, my medal, and like, the fake ones too.

(32. I counted 32 "likes". im weeping)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

...you...what? WHAT did you do? That's just...that is evil! Beyond petty, just- evil! Those medals, real or not, are- they're more than just trinkets in a book, they could hold special or meaningful or otherwise notable experiences that the human wanted to remember through those medals! Maybe that goes for all the medals in that medallium, real or otherwise! They might've treasured YOUR medal as dearly as they did the rest, for what little you know! And just because there's not enough of your overbearing face in the pages, you thought it fit to-?!

*Sigh* Oh, why go on, we've already been tuned out...

...

Normally it's you with something to say about submissions like these.

Sorry, sorry, uh... I was still tryna read through the mess of "like"s when ya started raisin' yer voice. Knowin' how rare that is, it jus' startled me, y'know?

I get overemotional over what might be the most trivial things...

I wouldn't say so—you make what they did sound pretty darn nefarious. Which it is. I'm sayin' yer reaction made sense. I woulda joined you midway if I wasn't so surprised!

I'm sure you would have. I still feel a bit silly, though... I think I need a moment.

B'fore that, didja notice how they said they saw our names in the medallium?

Oh, I must've been too busy reacting to the rest of the submission to notice. Have we met this human personally?

I'on recall any human I know tellin' me they did stuff like that, so who knows? Knowin' that the human in question might be a friend o' mine, though, ticks me off a bit more than a li'l bit...

Agreed...

[tattle-talk]

Why do people put heavy stuff on top of their garbage bins, what's the point!? I'm tired of having to move piles freaking bricks off them before trying to find stuff! IT is so annoying!

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

...I'm going to hold your shoulder—since your hands are probably dirty—when I say you might be the problem.

Agreed. If you're gonna take people's trash, you gotta be stealthy about it.

What.

But- y'know? I don't get it either! They ain't gonna use whatever they're throwin' away, why get so defensive when someone starts puttin' it to use?

How would you feel if someone dug through your trash?

Fine, as long as they put the lid back on 'n' didn't leave a mess. I'd pro'lly ask what they were gonna use the junk for if I caught 'em.

...maybe I am overreacting.

Eh, don't worry 'bout it. That's why you have me.

[tattle-talk]

So like, I meet this human and their like nice or whatever, nothing special, so I gave them my medal, like, right, and they put it in this book or whatever.

So like later after some time I like saw them flipping through it and then I saw they had like, this entire chapter, section, whatever, dedicated to yo-kai who like, never gave them their medals?? And like, it's not like I'm being that petty but like, WHY do THOSE yo-kai get an ENTIRE PAGE dedicated to THEM?? Why can't I, like, have that?? That's like, so unfair.

So like, my day? ruined.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Woulda been a much shorter read if not for all the "like"s- AHEM. Uh.

Have you...considered that they might want to remember their encounters with the yo-kai who didn't give them their medals? Or maybe they'd want to try befriending them later?

If you're that upset about it, why not just take back yer medal? Being given a medal just for it to be swiped back'll certainly be sumthin' they'll write about in those pages.

Don't give them ideas, something tells me they'll go through with that. Or! You could ask them to write a page about you? I'm not sure how long you've known each other, but, from your submission alone, you seem like you have a...notable personality.

Notable?

Eccentric enough to write at least a page about.

Wait, are they talkin' about a medallium? Can ya even write in there? How would they have a section 'bout yo-kai who haven't given their medals? Wouldn't ya just. Not have the medals??

You know, I hear there was a boy who, before the first yo-kai watch was invented, made friends with yo-kai and wrote names on milk caps to remember them by. Perhaps they did something like that.

Ohhh, that's neat! ...does this guy really want their name written on enough caps t'fill an entire page??

Not unless yo-kai can give multiple medals to the same person...

[tattle-talk]

you wanna know the funniest part about ribbon?

almost everyone we know is scared half to death 2 electric boogaloo about her. the only exceptions are bell, spear's cousin, and ribbon's horde of siblings.

maybe it's because she can literally vanish into any sufficiently large patch of shade and really likes to just hide in her big brother's shadow and grin creepily at things? i dunno, it's just so funny that everyone thinks she's some kind of terrifying assassin when she's actually just a very light-sensitive goofball who can hork down a whole mackerel without even chewing (she's not unique for that last part, her whole family can do that. it's absurd)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

...well. I wouldn't have guessed any of that.

Oh, assassin or not, I'd be terrified of 'er anyway! Not even 'cuz of the shadow thing, b'cuz whaddya mean she can swallow a fish whole??

That said, if she's so lighthearted, how did she earn a reputation of "terrifying assassin"...

...ooh, that's a good point. Now I'm terrified for two reasons.

[tattle-talk]

Pumpkin witch again! Been an eventful three days!

First of all, general psa: if a creepy doll you have is exhibiting signs of malevolent haunted activity... BURN. IT. or chuck it in a river or something, but dont just snap its head off and wait three days to contact your local paranormal expert! Ive had to explain my work to a lot of white women in the past few years, and it never gets less annoying when i have to tell them "you were an idiot, so now there's consequences!"

Second: can someone do something about the creepy ass clown necromancer? Ive seen him three times this week and before I can get close enough *zombie night!* outta nowhere! As if I didn't have enough trouble with animated corpses!

I dont know who this guy is or what his deal is, but I keep seeing him around town, and im pretty sure hes been stalking kids or something. Can't go to the police for obvious reasons so can someone like, get me in touch with a local superhero or somethin? Im only one witch!

And finally, my usual supplier of cursed objects found something interesting. You know that one restaurant chain that's like, 7 different kinds of haunted? Like the animatronics being possessed by dead kids? Well, my guy got one. Got it in an auction or something for a steal. Im actually heading over to see if it moves at midnight.

Hope i dont die, lol

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

...

???

Ah, uh, ya know- don't...answer this, but. Where do you live.

Maybe we should've asked this before... We might've, actually.

I'm askin' so I know to stay as far 'way from there as I can! Spooky dolls?

And people who don't know how to handle them, perhaps worsening the issue...

Kid-likin' clowns??

...crude way of putting it, but speaks for itself.

Haunted robots??? Possessed by dead kids?

Hold on, that sounds familiar-

Girl—fer yer sake—jus' get outta there.

...if you're properly prepared and confident you'll get out alive though, do tell me what happens with that animatronic.

[tattle-talk]

some more absolutely golden quotes from my housemates (key: silk, spear, ribbon, bell)

"i didn't eat breakfast, my stomach's trying to eat my spine"

"IS THERE CHUCKLEFUCKERY AFOOT" promptly followed by "HEEEEEEEENNNNNGGGHHHHHH" (there is really no other way to transcribe the noise ribbon made)

"[ribbon], dear, where's your dignity."

"why does this guy look like he has a toilet for a face now???" (we were playing a horror game)

"i'm about to die, i'm gonna die, please don't kill me hard" (dice proceeded to gently whack her over the head with a mop)

"GO YOU GOOD THING" (he says this a lot)

"please leave the cat alone, she bites" (bell was promptly chomped in the face) (this happened literally yesterday)

"YOU LET THAT FUCKING THING DIE AND I WILL RIP YOUR LIVER OUT WITH MY BARE HANDS." (i do not know the full context for this one. all i know is that this was directed at spear and it was in reference to a video game they were playing)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

*huff* Okay, think I've cooled down 'nough to get back to answerin' these.

...

...pffft-

*light snickering*

Kheeeheheheee! Ah, I feel better already.

I believe this is the first time you mentioned Ribbon, yet they already feel so...how do I put this. I feel I can tell the kind of person they are.

Lord Enma bless yer household and yer housemates... I think I'm gonna start usin' one o' these myself.

Oh-hoho dear, which one?

IS THERE CHUCKLEFUCKERY AFOOT??

*wheeze* You say it so seriously...

*Sigh* That is golden.

[tattle-talk]

Ok, picture this: you're an S-rank "good for nothing, narcissistic, and frankly ugly looking freeloader" yokai that just so happens to have stumbled across a talk show where their puny human 'friend' is talking sh!t behind your back.

MY TURN!!

First of all, I DON'T owe this lousy mortal my medal just because she freed me. Why do most watchers come to the crank-a-kai thinking it's some kind of get-a-free-bestie-4-life dispenser and that they expect us to grovel at their feet, thanking and devoting our loyalty to them just because they released us from a capsule? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I'm out of there, but all she did was insert a coin and twist a knob and now I'm supposed to just lend her my strength? No! Not until she can prove to me that she's a strong enough watch wielder to handle my power. That's not narcissism, I just know my worth.

About the freeloading...uh, the crank-a-kai was technically my home for the past several hundred or so years and she kinda just took me away from that, so the least she could do is give me a place to stay, right? She's got a nice place, she cooks decent food, and the other yokai she got lying around here are weak enough for me to put them in their place whenever they get too rowdy. I like it here, and my the human's company isn't the worst. Annoying her has become a fun part of my daily routine. She's the one who came to the crank-a-kai to get a powerful yokai, and a powerful yokai she got. Now she just has to deal with the consequences of that.

And as for the calling me ugly comment, that's just her projecting.

Oh, and don't think that I didn't see those ideas that you two boomers and that witch were giving out on how to get rid of me. Now that I know, I'll just threaten to inspirit her worse than I usually do if she tries to pull any dirty tricks. And to my dearest human companion, if you're seeing this: SCREW. YOU. I'M HERE TO STAY.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

How'd ya find out about—?!

Ohhh dear...

Y'know what? Yeah, ya aren't obligated to give 'er yer medal, but that don't mean ya make 'er life hell b'cuz ya feel like it—an' rank's no excuse! Jus' go back to wherever ya were b'fore bein' shoved in the Crank-a-Kai! An' don't come here with no "projection" crud, 'cuz your character alone's ugly 'nuff to warrant the label!

Don't take that tone with them..!

It's sum'n they gotta hear, so I'll take whatever tone I feel fit with 'em! Why, if I ever meet that human, I'm givin' 'em my medal right then 'n' there jus' so they can summ'n me to give ya the most UN-Lovin' Slap both worlds've ever seen! That oughta getcha outta there, eh?!

Oh, human, if only you were just slightly more cautious about that Crank-a-Kai...you might've just doomed us all...

[tattle-talk]

so, uh, silk decided to invite his sister over. and apparently this was the plan for a while but i somehow managed to not get notified about it until i walked facefirst into a giant web in the kitchen

turns out, when silk and bell get together, they both become like a sliding glass door: unhinged. silk's desk is completely covered in what kind of looks like blueprints. they have chased spear out of the room so they can ping-pong the wildest ideas back and forth without him being there to mediate. i still do not understand how spear has become the sane one when it's normally silk preventing spear from doing dumb shit.

also bell brought an entire vintage sewing machine with her. i still don't know where she put that thing, her bag is nowhere near big enough to fit a Whole Ass Sewing Machine.

(how was I. not notified for this)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Giant web? Oh, so THAT'S why he's called "Silk", clever!

Well, it seems the title of Normal One goes to you, Anon.

Hey, what WAS on the blueprints? Didja see? Bell brought over a sewing machine, so...

I don't think you make blueprints for clothes...

Anything's a blueprint if it's printed in blue, yeah?

Even so, I don't think clothes would be considered a "wild idea" unless they're notably outlandish or unique somehow.

Ya never know! 'specially not with these guys, hehe.

[tattle-talk]

(surely nobody saw me post a completely unfinished draft responding to this ask. no definitely not. don't say a WORD okay)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

...

...

Can I ask if that's cannibalism?

No, because that'd give away their identity and it-

Who wouldn't know who he is?!

SHH! The mic's still on!

OH, UH- *ahem* W-welcome to the show, newbie tattletale!☆ Glad to have ya.

You're- hehe, quite an excitable fellow, aren't you?

Ya know, I'unno why ya were so surprised 'bout some guy eatin' meat if you were in BBQ of all places. This one yo-kai made it his home 'cause of all the meat they eat there!

Or maybe his influence is why so many people there like meat?

Ah, whatever the case, I like yer energy "anon".☆ I'm real curious 'bout how that star burger tasted though—curious 'bout BBQ food in general, really. Maybe I shouldn't ask this guy though, 'cuz sum'n tells me he'll have a bit o' 'Merican bias...

*sigh* You can't...say that.

[tattle-talk]

Sup, its the pumpkin witch again. Some updates :

Still dealing with zombies. Half tempted to go looking for that mourning bell on my own but im kinda too lazy to do it. -_-

My neighbor is getting on my nerves. See, he's a werewolf, which is normally fine he's responsible under full moons and all, but caskets, he's got his whole pack over to watch the world cup and lemme tell ya, one werewolf frat boy is tolerable, but 12?! My cat's been off the walls.

My roommate has her girlfriend over which has been... kinda entertaining! Legendary yokai typically have big personalities, and these two in the same room tend to make themselves everyone else's problem... which is fun to watch! XD

And lastly I ran into this skeleton who keeps shoving people into dresses... especially guys for some reason. Needless to say, we hit it off!

Hope the show's going good for ya!

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Mournin' bell? Neva heard o' that, what's it do?

Must do something to calm the zombies.

Yeah, uh, dunno how I didn't get that. Oops.

That neighboring werewolf pack though...my days, that sounds intolerable, and I don't even know what the "world cup" is.

Ain't that just football? No, wait- soccer. Why would anyone cause such a ruckus over sports??

In any case, I can hear the nonstop howling...

I'd love t'see the look on their faces if whoever they're bettin' on loses, though.

Hmhmhm.

Hey, wait a darn minute, how'd I miss the fact you have LEGENDARY YO-KAI at yer house?! And whaddya MEAN "her girlfriend"??

...Percil- I mean, Tattletell, are you-?

Am I what? Oh, nonono—I'on care if it's a guy 'n' a girl or two o' one or the other, I'm flabbergasted that two legendary yo-kai're datin' at all! How're YOU not shocked righ'now??

It- must've gone over my head??

Clearly! When on earth did-

Now, let's not pry...

I'm gunna pry. This is big news!

Doesn't affect us though, does it? Maybe we should mind our own business.

Ugh...guess you're right. Still, not knowin's killin' me, an' I just learned 'bout this 30 seconds ago!

I don't assume you're going to address the cross-dressing-obsessed skeleton, then..?

Oh, we all know who that is anyway. One o', like, 3 people.

*Sigh* Fair...

[tattle-talk]

Hi! Uhm. Im not a watch holder. But someone at my school is and i know this because we're both members of the detective club where we like, solve Tabletop mystery games and investigate those weird rumors around campus.

Anyways there was this huge heatwave recently and during daytime it was too hot for me to do anything other than suffer. But i really dont like doing nothing all day so in the middle of the night when the air was at its coolest i decided to just. Sneak out.

To be honest i was just kind of wandering aimlessly as i was enjoying the more temperate weather. We happened to cross paths and they immediately proceeded to flashbang me with the watch's searchlight before i could even wave at them to say hi.

Now they keep shooting suspicious glances at me everytime i happen to be within their line of sight, and they're always giving me protective charms because the fact that i was simply walking around before the sun rose up and set the air on fire *must* have been the work of a yo-kai. And they absolutely refuse to hear me out too when i try to explain myself.

I know that yo-kai exist (I saw some weird stuff) but they genuinely believe that absolutely everything is the work of a yo-kai and at this point its freaking me out. Is there a yo-kai that makes you believe everything is caused by yo-kai? This is genuinely concerning. ;-;

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Hoo, boy, where do I start... Anon, there're yo-kai for basically everything. Stayin' up late? Yep. Wanderin' 'round at night? Mmmhm. Thinkin' everything's a yo-kai's fault? Darn straight there's a yo-kai that can do that too! I don't blame yer friend one bit for thinkin' you might have a yo-kai problem.

Oh, poor soul. Even if you have perfectly good reason to do what you do, if it's slightly out of the ordinary, watch-users have probable cause to think it's yo-kai mischief. I say this because nine times out of ten, it is. I'm- *chuckle* I'm sorry you had to be the outlier.

Don't laugh at 'em...

You're smirking!

'Cause it is funny, but it's rude to laugh!

I'm laughing at- at the irony. Anon, disregard the laughter, please, I wish you, er...

Hehe, we wish ya cooler days. Or at least an ice cold drink. Heck, maybe we should hope that a yo-kai actually inspirits you so your friend'll take care of 'em an' leave you be.

[tattle-talk]

I'm part of a Blasters team, I'm sure you know what that is, and my team, well it's our first time being Blasters. Now our leader, important guy who I'm gonna be talking about, their a short guy, barely knee height, but BIG temper.

So one time we were on this mission, very easy mission mind you, it was picking up groceries levels easy! And everything was running smoothly, but halfway through this yo-kai suddenly pops up out of no where, and let me tell you they were STRONG, way stronger then your average yo-kai, and they jumped us out of no where! A complete sucker!

Now luckily we all had our soultimates ready so we all charged and blasted that guy, but they were still standing! And then they attacked us 4 and decimated our tank and healer, obliterated! just like that! Leader and I were barely able to scrape through, so it's just this stand off between us 2. Now I was right behind that yo-kai, we had softened them up real good, they were just one hit away! But I was real shaken up by what just happened, and I think anyone in my situation would be too.

So I was just standing there, kind of frozen and then Leader starts yelling at me! Saying things like "What are you doing??!!" or "Do something!!!" I don't remember exactly but it was something along those lines. But Leader yelling at me like that, made me hesitate and I guess that guy saw the opportunity and blasted us both with their soultimate!

We ended up failing that mission, and Leader was just completely furious at me, they were just hollering and hammering at me about how we could have won if I didn't freeze up like that. They were just fuming with anger, It was scary how someone so small could be so angry!

It's been days since that mission, but I think Leader is still mad at me, but it's hard to tell because they are so short.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Pfft- "Hard to tell because they're so short"... You people kill me a second time.

Hmph. Sounds to me like your "leader" has no right to talk. They should've been prepared for ambushes like that, no matter how easy the mission was, especially with a team of rookies. And they still had the gall to scold you? A new blaster that managed to last that long against a much stronger yo-kai?

Y'know, Anon, I think you'll make a fine blaster one day. Don't care what anyone says, I'm rootin' for ya! ...I would work on the freezin' thing though.

It was an...understandable response. It's a shame your child of a leader can't see past it.

For all we know, they could very well be an ACTUAL child. They fit the description, yeah? Short height, temper tantrums?

[tattle-talk]

I recently just acquired the watch and never realized yokai social media pages just miraculously unlocked the second I got the watch! Like theres constant posting from the cat- and apparently theres a ton more of them.. why are there so many cats? How did this many cats happen to follow me around the second I got this watch?! Its a curse, i swear! .. any advice? I have nothing left in my fridge anymore from them.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Hmm. I wonder how that works... Who do you mean by "the cat" though?

Aww, ain't that sweet? The 'nyans like ya! I think! Orrr they just want yer food. Knowing cats, it's probably the latter. Welp, welcome to the world of yo-kai!☆

Regardless, I'd ask for their medals since they might've already taken a liking to you.

Buuut if ya REALLY want 'em gone? I think that witch girl made a list o' ways to get unwanted yo-kai outta yer house, so you can look at that. What I use, though, when my babies start acting up, is a good 'ol spray bottle o' holy water.

Convenient, refillable, and works on just about everyone, not just cats!

Can confirm. She douses me in it whenever I make a light jab at-

*spritz spritz*

Hey- no, NOT AGAIN-

Heehehee!

[tattle-talk]

Watch Holder here, once I wanted to go to a friend's place... but there was a WATCH LOCK at their front door!! It was a little embarrassing having to go across the city to upgrade my watch, leaving my friend waiting for 2 hours!!

At least it shouldn't happen again...

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

OOOoooff... I've heard o' watch locks in real inconvenient places, but at someone's front door?

I've always wondered who (or what) places them, but they (or it) might have sensed a strong yo-kai's presence in your friend's house.

Hey, that's a good point! I dunno what rank the lock was, but watch out for your friend, yeah? Still, I'm not sure why watch holders can't just take it off, go sumwhere, 'n' put it back on when they're past the lock...

[tattle-talk]

oh, and i did manage to find out what it was that silk and spear were working on at stupid o'clock in the morning (about 4am)

turns out they were trying to modify the catio (cat patio) so dice (plushie bakeneko? she's silly and weird and loud) could like. climb up a pole and sit on the catio ceiling. dice absolutely LOVES IT and also loves to sit up there and scream. we all love her but she never shuts up. i guess that's what you get with a siamese cat

although while they were building it i did hear a notably loud thunk and then spear cussing. so either something fell on him or Gay Violence.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Oh, now that's just adorable. Dice sounds precious, I'm glad to hear you're treating her accordingly.

As funny as "Gay Violence" sounds, er...you don't think what he said "oughta hold" happened to not, in fact, hold, do you?

Eeevidently not, hehe.

[tattle-talk]

oh god the rumors about soulcery. people... DO know that we can kind of just Do That, right? like, it can be tricky to do on your own, and it's always good to have someone you trust with you because you can't exactly do anything if you retreat into your soulgem and your body's not active. but it doesn't vanish you out of existence or anything.

(source: silk and spear do this, uh, very often. i still haven't figured out how to do it myself.)

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

Waaaitwaitwait. Whaddya MEAN yo-kai can soul-gem-ify themselves? I thought one of those monks had t'do that? WHY WOULD A YO-KAI USE SOULCERY ON THEMSELVES??

Well, they mentioned before that Silk and Spear are married, and they apparently do it often, so...I suppose it's romantic?

What's romantic about turnin' into a gem? Like, if you're gonna be put on a ring or something, then maybe, but- no! Even then it's odd! 'N' they do it...often? So it's not even permanent? You're just temporarily turning into a gem for the heck of it?? I'm stumped! Honestly!

Well...why don't we find out firsthand how it works?

What're you- aw, no, don't do that to yourself, c'mon. That's too ris-

I never said anything about me.

*silence*

OHHH NAH. NO.

*chuckling*

That's a new fear for me! I don't wanna talk about this ever again...

Hey now, we don't even know everything about it yet.

I s'pose... *huff* Thanks fer the info, Anon.

[tattle-talk]

I don't usually go on these sorts of things, but I needed to vent out my frustration about a recent yokai I've.."befriended".

So..does the crank-a-kai have like...a return feature?? Because I just saved a yokai from spending the rest of eternity being stuck in an old gumball machine, and as thanks he's making my life a living hell.

Someone from Shoten Temple told be about the crank-a-kai and I was excited to make a new powerful S-rank friend!..but I instead got a good for nothing, narcissistic, annoying, and frankly ugly looking freeloader that runs through all of MY food, has claimed MY couch and tv for himself, and pretty much just acts as if he owns MY home. I tried kicking him out, but I'm just a mere human, so that didn't work. I tried asking my other yokai friends to force him out, but they're all of a lower rank and got defeated easily. He never even gave me his medal after I graciously freed him from his pokéball of a prison cell, so I can't even summon him out of my house using my watch. He sayin' that I gotta EARN his medal, tf?? THE AUDACITY. I NEED THIS CREATURE GONE. WHAT PRIEST DO I NEED TO CALL TO EXORCISE THIS VILE SPIRIT FROM MY HOME (apologies if exorcistim is a sensitive topic to you yokai..)

Anyway, that's my super fun experience with the crank-a-kai ✌️

Sincerely, a fed up watch user who kinda regrets finding out about yokai.

Key: Tattletell, Tattlecast

S-rank?

Narcissistic?

"Earn" his medal..?

*looking at Tattletell*

*looking at Tattlecast*

...I think we can guess—

Don't say his name, he'll hear us talkin' smack from the other end of the world!

I didn't plan to...

Hoo... Anon, our honest thoughts 'n' prayers fer you. I don't blame you for regrettin' bein' involved with yo-kai or talkin' about exorcism at all. Matter o' fact—can I say this? I can prob'ly say this—yo-kai think about gettin' priests on each other pretty often, from my experience. They don't go through with it, usually, 'cuz- y'know, it's drastic, but it makes sense. It's like humans thinkin' bout murder.

But please don't actually exorcise your unwelcome guest. The ascension of an elite yo-kai won't go unnoticed.

Yeah, definitely, what she said.

...but if I had to give a suggestion...I'd try to appease him. I mean...try to obtain his medal. I don't doubt it will be hard on your body, spirit, and definitely your sanity, but do what you can to get a medal from him.

Why're you- oh. OHHH. Are you sayin'-?

I-I don't know much about it, but once you get the medal, I hear about this temple in Harrisville that'll let you do, what was it...

Soulcery??

Yes, that.

Don't that OBLITERATE a yo-kai?? Not even ascension, just-

No?? I hear it just "crystallizes a yo-kai's feelings" and forms some kind of gem from the bond between the medal-giver and medal-holder. I'd assume it erases a yo-kai's memory of whoever they gave the medal to.

I hear it erases a yo-kai's darn soul from existence!

That-! That can't be right, they wouldn't offer a service like that!

They offer exorcisms!

Exorcisms ascend a yo-kai's soul, not entirely erase it...right?

*LOUD sigh* I think we'd best end it here. Sorry about that, folks. Anon, what you do's up t'you. Whatever ya decide, I hope that guy gets outta there one way or 'nother.

They could try and ask for another S-rank's help, I just realized.

Iunno, I think they used up all their luck findin' one.

Well, you never know.

Regardless...we on Tattletalk wish you, uh, better luck. And a lotta patience.
