For Insensitive would we need to spend Void for each attempt to save people or just once for the event?

Quick question about this thread - can we roll Investigation to try and work out what the object might be? If so, what attribute would we be using?

Is it possible to make a Lore: History check to see if Ren knows anything about a connection between Hida Hitomi and Hida Gusari?

Quick check - if I wanted to hold someone for questioning or arrest someone (like Ijihime), would there need to be a roll of some kind or can I just say "guards" or something to escalate the situation?

I see - in the future if I did call "guards" would it be reliable that she(or someone else) come with even if the situation escalates, or would it be more up in the air?

Sorry for the consecutive questions, but do these looping days count towards the game's proposed nine day limit or no?

Does the curse still eat a void point at day start even if you are aware of the loop?

Not a huge deal, but I assume waking up in EM is ok to do, at least if you already know it's a loop? Not a huge deal either way, just wondering how early I can seek counseling that I didn't start a thread for in D4.
