Of course, Shukaku would get mad when Kurama says that, as the weakest it's understandable. And until the Tanuki displays feats that prove better than Kurama's, my mind wont change on the subject. When I mentioned Chakra Cloaks, I was referring towards the canon, in which Kurama is really the only one that matters, given that it exceeds further past that of V2 and possibly even the full transformation itself.
Sure, Athos doing the cloak could provide the necessary increase to rival the nine tails, but that's because of his base speed already being faster than most. The cloak Augments the user's stats, it wont be the same, exact, speed if someone much slower were to access the six tailed cloaked.
Your girlfriend analogy is sound, but nothing about this situation will be expressly genuine, as the entire realm is purely fantasy, a fabrication of several minds to simply give an audience. Now, if she had an actual A.I to communicate with, or if this was actually being played out in real life, things will seem far more real. Since we don't your next try fails miserably to dissuade anything about how I feel of my decision. Especially since I already have an idea of how that conversation is going to play out, whether she was summoned or not.
Sure, I won't argue that Athos is a better character, but as I've demonstrated, as have you, being better doesn't mean unbeatable.
While I understand your ramblings, or jokes as you stated, I don't understand the need for them to be present in this discussion. Yes, I can talk face to face with her, it surely would be the path I would take if a mental link was not agreed upon. Something only you have had something to say about. I don't mind giving up 20% of chakra to summon her to have our chats, but I was think more along the lines of convenience. Why have a blue ball of fire, of any size, roaming around a peaceful village, just so the two of you can have your talk, when the two of you can do it through a link?
Now, I see how my words could make it seem as if I believed that telepathy was the only route, and I apologize for that. But for you to come at me and treat me the fool, is widely unwarranted. I know what my options are, I just want to know if a link is a possibility. An agreement or disagreement by the community, for all summoners of the realm. Sure, this isn't the right topic for that particular vote, but if the Oasis is agreed upon, there would simply be another option that's available to the summoners.
Matabi is not even 2 tails higher than Shukaku on that totem pole. The beasts have no gender last I checked, and the beasts drifted apart in the canon because of Kurama's hierarchy view, valid or no, so while how you RP your tailed beast is your business as long as it does not violate any rules, I personally think it is unreasonable to not have Matabi react strongly to being replaced, even if it is by Kurama.
I mean, if patching up is so important to your character you would think that you would write a reasonable scenario to where summoning in the middle of a peaceful village would not be necessary. Yes, I misunderstood and thought that you meant a telepathy link being the only way, but your point about the cloaks only augmenting already base stats applies to both Kurama's cloak and to any other tailed beast cloak. A rock is not going to become the Flash just with Kurama's cloak alone.
Accuse me of rambling, what does it really matter for either of us? You are going to RP Matabi as you want to and I am going to RP Chomei as I want to, within the area of the rules. There is no rule against the tattoos having telepathy links, no rule against gamey RPing, and too few summoners for there to be a summon biju bouncy house.
I suggest a giant stable with a giant pond that has giant fish so that dolphin head and fire kitty have plenty to munch on while waiting for their draft number to be called.
