Trollbits

(4:39:13 PM) Zuki: Also, I had a little idea-snippet, based on the way Nisica used pieces of herself to help put Adam back together, and I figured I'd point you towards him so he could ask. (Or I guess I could, since it might be more convenient.)
(4:50:51 PM) pShorshasa: What's the idea?
(4:51:44 PM) pShorshasa is now known as unseeingAugur
(4:58:37 PM) Zuki: Can he speak troll now?
(4:58:59 PM) Zuki: Or are his efforts at language acquistion going to be affected? (he was already working on it, Wyrm said.)
(5:02:55 PM) unseeingAugur: Probably until the shiny pieces start being rejected / coming loose, yeah.
(5:03:37 PM) unseeingAugur: He just took a healthy dose of troll to his shiny. And one of the first places that the Host seems to fuck with is language / communication.
(5:05:51 PM) Zuki: Hmmm. And the troll bits will get pushed out as his regrows: unsure how long that process could take: some fast, some slow.
(5:06:12 PM) Zuki: If that's one of the first to go, it may be one of the last to return.
(5:06:38 PM) Zuki: I expect that he'd be able to make the necessary changes for /himself/ by the time they're no longer sticking around because of Nisica.
(5:06:52 PM) Zuki: Sound about right?
(5:07:21 PM) Zuki: 'Hey I speak troll now' just struck me as an interesting possible consequence to go along with the eyecolour change
(5:08:02 PM) unseeingAugur: There's probably going to be a few things, yeah.
(5:08:13 PM) unseeingAugur: And shinies regrow from /templates/.
(5:08:24 PM) unseeingAugur: She put templates /in/ there. So some of what she gave him will stick, likely.
(5:08:46 PM) unseeingAugur: If he goes back and tries to find her again, he will. And she'd do the same again, to help him reinforce his shiny.
(5:09:18 PM) unseeingAugur: Of course, he can just let it be for the time being, and it will passively pick up from all the people he interacts with.
(5:09:57 PM) Zuki: Innnnteresting.
