It's time for something very uncommonly seen, but commonly done. Something very plain. Something quite normal. An Ordinary Day.

OBTAINED CREAM OF WHEAT

CURRENT INVENTORY:
1 Unjudged soul
177 or so bones of various size and shape
1 S.C.A.L.E.
5 Packages of non-filling snacks
Various office supplies

I can still grab stuff from in here, if anything else seems worth taking.

I don't really need to do it at any specific time, so long as it gets done. Time is only vaguely linear here. Buuuuuuut I might as well do it right now while the food cooks, just gotta grab my S.C.A.L.E.

This S.C.A.L.E. judges souls using some sort of fancy magic. I don't know how it works really, but only Judges (like me!) can use them, even though it seems really simple to use. I just need to place the soul into the cup...

It's not evaluating some sort of monetary worth, it's evaluating moral worth. We can just let everybody into the afterlife. I called this one worthless because they are particularly low in moral worth. Probably a murderer or something.

>>657554
Have you ever tried to balance a glass on a perfect sphere? It's not easy.

But yeah that mist is the soul that was in the sphere. Some souls try to run away by getting out of the sphere right before it cracks fully, but they usually just fade away really quickly outside of it. The sphere acts as a sort of life support system, you see, and so leaving it doesn't really go so well.
The soul ran (floated?) into the cooler room. I proooooobably don't need to bother with it. Probably. I mean it should just dissipate on its own.

Not to mention, it's already been a weird day. Shouldn't have any effect on the souls, but best not to take chances right?

Reapers don't really have any magic besides stuff for their job or plain utility, usually dead things, you know, stay dead.

Luckily I do have something for just the occasion, its a genuine S.C.Y.T.H.E. with an easy grip, made of genuine cold iron, perfect for dealing with those pesky pests of a supernatural manner!

Actually, there is no such thing as 'negative infinity' as the closest thing would be absolute zero, as temperature has to do with the amount of energy in an area, and at absolute zero there is no energy, and as there is no negative ener- why am I talking about this right now!?

It was a basic S.C.Y.T.H.E. given out by corperate, just a standard Reaper office supply. It was named by our AD, our Acronym Department, and it stands for:
Soul
Collecting
Yggdrasil
Tree
Handled
Equipment
Of course, our more recent ones have handles made of carbon-fiber, but the AD refuses the change the name, because I mean, S.C.C.F.H.E. doesn't really roll off th-

Alright, let's see what it was sitting o- oh. It appears to be a Reaper's cloak. Reapers can't live outside of them, it's what keeps our bones together, sort of. This is... really bad. I... I'm going to take this with me. We'll need this if we find their bones somewhere.

Ok, so the general consensus is that I should't immediately go after the soul, which I'm going to refer to as the salamander from this point on. So here are the places I can go to and what I could go do there. There are other places I can go to, but they probably are irrelevant here.

Management I could report this to upper management, but I don't really trust them to deal with this in a timely manner, and they might blame me.

Acronyms Department Doubles as our R&D, they might have some better equipment to deal with the problem, but if I just go here and don't report it to anyone, I'll be going it alone.

Field Agent HQ Reapers here may have some ideas how to proceed, and some might help me, but that's not a certainty.

Judge Hall I can report this to my direct superiors, they can pull less strings to deal with this, but I'm less likely to get in trouble with them.

Of course, none of this really matters if we can't find anybody.

Field agents are best suited to tracking down live prey. You have live prey that needs to be subdued as quickly as possible, before it attacks someone. Worry about capture and equipment transport after you corner the beast.

Visit Field Agent HQ, they sound best suited for tracking down and neutralizing an active threat.

No. 660554 ID: f61b8d

Can you visit one on the way to the other? I'm thinking both Judges and Field Agents, precedence to Judges.
