(12:08:31 AM) Zuki: OJ, two things?
(12:08:58 AM) lucidChthonia: Yes?
(12:09:25 AM) lucidChthonia: Would you like me to stop?
(12:09:45 AM) lucidChthonia: Because see now I'm worried about /that/
(12:10:08 AM) Zuki: Hang on, trying to figure something out because I'm being skyped at.
(12:10:47 AM) Zuki: Mostly: there's a developing movement to, uh, reduce the number of troll characters in the chat, and another one just got pulled in. Even if Tocrux Wessen's biting it, that's keeping parity rather than reducing.
(12:11:34 AM) lucidChthonia: ...I /did/ establish very early on that Aelf's second included multiple species.
(12:12:19 AM) lucidChthonia: I'm fairly certain I could have thought this more of the way through, but on the other hand, Aelf was showing signs of just not wanting to log in for another week and I needed to start /soon/ and didn't exactly have time to figure out what others were involved.
(12:13:02 AM) lucidChthonia: It did /not/ make sense for this character to be human.
(12:13:04 AM) lucidChthonia: I'm sorry.
(12:14:22 AM) Zuki: I don't /personally/ mind, but I needed to speak up for principle's sake.
(12:14:27 AM) lucidChthonia: All right.
(12:16:12 AM) Zuki: ( So basically I dare you to have them die in a stupid accident in the near future. )
(12:16:39 AM) lucidChthonia: (...)
(12:16:45 AM) lucidChthonia: (After I've finished this plot, please?)
(12:16:53 AM) Zuki: ( Sure! )
(1:07:20 AM) OJ: So, hm.
(1:07:27 AM) OJ: Did that go well?
(1:07:31 AM) Zuki: I think so!
(1:08:12 AM) OJ: Gearjack is going to be flat terrified when they see what's going on with Aelf's name on Pits.
(1:08:41 AM) OJ: (And it is thus that all my terrible Aelfplots feed on each other.)
(1:08:48 AM) OJ: (Like a shitty ouroboros.)
(1:08:57 AM) Zuki: heee
(1:09:48 AM) OJ: Also, uh
(1:09:52 AM) OJ: Point of order
(1:09:56 AM) OJ: The Bard of Heart /cannot/ be human.
(1:10:00 AM) Zuki: oh?
(1:10:01 AM) Zuki: Hmmmm.
(1:10:06 AM) OJ: I already established Aelf's second had a stupid number of species in it.
(1:10:22 AM) OJ: I'm pinning the Space player as possibly a birdbro
(1:10:31 AM) Zuki: We should consider making them one of the pre-established species that needs development!
(1:10:34 AM) OJ: And the species of the others shouldn't matter very much?
(1:10:49 AM) OJ: Well, the Thief of Void is human
(1:10:59 AM) OJ: Would a /hob/ do that kind of thing
(1:11:21 AM) OJ: Or 'm I going to have to go up to Rave and try to figure out how to take one of their species and turn one into kind of a terrible person?
(1:11:26 AM) OJ: Or, uh
(1:11:28 AM) OJ: Sef, I guess
(1:11:51 AM) Zuki: would a Hob do what, exactly, to someone's identity?
(1:12:44 AM) Zuki: I figure, yeah, that's one option. Or perrrrhaps one of Muezza's people, which Bobbin developed? Or, one of the mass effect aliens. Let me ask.
(1:13:23 AM) OJ: Possible.
(1:13:30 AM) OJ: I've never seen/played mass effect tho
(1:13:38 AM) Zuki: point.
(1:13:44 AM) Zuki: Ish would be all right with it being a Manes.
(1:14:37 AM) OJ: Also, terrible person alert: I wish Ock was still alive so Gearjack and he could have terrible mechanic vs. engineer fights
(1:14:42 AM) Zuki: hahaha.
(1:15:40 AM) Zuki: We could explain the alien in context and give a lil' backstory if needed. Ish has a neat idea re: a Mass Effect species that would be /perfect/ for a Bard of Heart.
(1:15:46 AM) Zuki: Especially re: amoral and experimental.
(1:16:00 AM) OJ: Mm. Go on?
(1:16:24 AM) Zuki: http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Salarian
(1:19:19 AM) OJ: ...
(1:19:21 AM) ***OJ read
(1:19:30 AM) OJ: Aelf would /get along with/ them.
(1:20:08 AM) OJ: Marry this to "I think Aelf was attempting some seriously dangerous shit in that session, i.e. Ben-level experimentation with Sburban primitives, and that is why she ended up getting cut to size"
(1:20:43 AM) Zuki: Yessss. Excellent.
(1:21:49 AM) OJ: "I am your father"-level manipulation with said Bard being a preexisting member of Pits who has always had a grudge on her for seemingly no reason y/n
(1:21:56 AM) OJ: (this might be overkill)
(1:22:34 AM) Zuki: I'm gonna say N, because there really shouldn't be *any* nonhuman PITfolk at that time, any, early on.
(1:22:47 AM) OJ: Understood.
(1:22:51 AM) Zuki: Entiem/veritableVerses, was PT's first alien.
(1:23:18 AM) Zuki: Not the first to exist, but...first staffer. And her non-human origin came out /after/her promotion to staff.
(1:23:52 AM) Zuki: WAit, clarification:
(1:24:06 AM) Zuki: Salarian on Pits: yeah,makes sense. I think nobody would /believe them/, though.
(1:24:20 AM) Zuki: they'd be pretty likely to pretend to be human, knowing the community and knowing the species.
(1:25:17 AM) OJ: Oh, they'd lurk for long enough to get a sense of the community, and then pretend to be human pretty much however-long after
(1:25:24 AM) OJ: ...
(1:25:28 AM) OJ: they might be dead by now too
(1:25:35 AM) OJ: I wonder how difficult /that/ would be for the end of the plot
(1:25:41 AM) ***OJ reshuffles mental notecards
