 		[NORIKO] Her ideas about Markus
Since I am still trying to catch up after a few days away, I wonder what Noriko is talking about in her posts. I guess the first post form June 20 is just a Japanese version of Ariadne's warning about Markus.

But the second one with the video could be interesting but google translation is not the best for Japanese:

2nd post from 6/20 wrote:

If you have 100 percent IKENAKATTARA, who have left or right? How do you decide?

Do not worry about a good thing, but I can not be too, if届かなけれto 100 percent, but still get to Marcus? If you go to 100 percent, instead of Marcus James? What do I think I do.

This month I've been extremely busy because of many business trips. I'll translate that post now, but could you make a reply after my translation, AUZ505? I have replied to your questions about Noriko's posts several times, but you have seemed to tend to ignore my answers.

EDIT: Here's a translation:

Omphstrength

If we cannot reach 100% omphstrength, somebody has to stay in this world. How will we decide it?

It couldn't be better than a situation we don't have to worry about such a thing, but ... If we cannot reach 100%, should Markus stay? Will James go instead of Markus even if we reach 100%? I wonder what to do.

Sorry, unagi, but I don't understand what you mean. How should I reply to your answers?

The only fitting reply is of course "Thank you" - I mean you are doing a great job.

Thanks, that's enough. "How" isn't important for me.

 		She's asking herself the same thing as Diego is on his last video. Who will decide who will have to stay if the omph strength is not enough?
I think we will do ok with the strength. We've just done 6 labyrinths and the strength is 86.30!

Yes, I agree about the omphstrength, although I wonder if we can build 27 and if we can cover the earth enough.

I transcribed and translated her video.

 		quoting your translation:
Quote:
Personally, well, I think it would be appropriate to let Markus stay here.
That's pretty strong.
Or does she think that would be his choice anyway as a TheO convert?

So, she follows AriAlex in doubts about Markus. I think Diego and MeiHui don't. Diego seems to think the suspicions are groundless and MeiHui says Markus deserves benefit of the doubt and a chance to explain. What about Lucie?

Well, this expression might be stronger than her intention, but anyway she says she won't disagree if Markus is chosen to stay here.

Yes.

As far as i remember, Lucie never said a word about Markus neither good or bad.

 		I had a brief chat with Noriko earlier, which was interrupted by Gmail chat weirding out. It seems her main focus right now is the true identity of our Thumos, and whether they are the right six or if they're missing one.

Here are the highlights:

Noriko wrote:
i'm not sure
if mauritz is our thumos and we haven't found him, or it just works different in our world because of the choice we made
i don't know
but kentaro said markus has been with theo all along
my moron little brother kentaro
excuse my language

i agree that markus might be a plant from theo

before he came to this world, he was already with theo?

i don't think this is the only world that has TheO...

Ooh...interesting to think about that. I still feel that their goals are a bit ambiguous; they're not truly good or evil, however you look at it. I wonder what they're up to in other worlds, though...the same type of desynchronization activities?

As for people staying... I thought Alex said that her family is dead and in the other world, there's already an Alex - and so was wondering what would happen if she tried to cross over with her self already existing. It seems like she's setting herself up to decide to stay... maybe with Kai? Wink

(and on that note, if she does leave, he would be thrust into James's position...)

Also, many thanks to unagi. Your posts and translations are always excellent, and highly welcome! We would miss out on a whole branch of this game if it weren't for your contributions Smile

 		Thanks, Laura, my first reply was uttered to an individual, but now I'm fine with him thoroughly. I thank him.

It's more than 80 years since the first TheO, and the world must have splitted into many, so no wonder to me there are other worlds which have TheO, but I wonder how TheO make multiversal voyages. Do they also make city-sized labyrinths in other worlds?

I hope she understands that she can't use a personal labyrinth to get to the world in which she left--because she's not there. She can still go, just not to a world with another 'her'. And I was under the impression that we were going to try to send Kai and James along as well. Hell, at the rate we're making labyrinths we're going to have an Omph Strength that's ridiculous. Maybe we can send EVERYONE back Very Happy
