- [13:51:37] <JimmyTMalice> A line I just wrote: "Those who are awake to watch [the shipping crate's] progress are unaware of its true contents, or have been bribed enough to turn a blind eye to the most obvious smuggling operation in all of London."
- [13:52:50] <VavakxNosnexus> Also Good Wholesome Fun.
- [13:54:16] <@Drake> This is the hardest part for me to write
- [13:54:23] <@Drake> The Dynamos getting tortured
- [13:55:08] <VavakxNosnexus> Can always fade-to-black & then vague at what a mess it was :P
- [14:00:33] <@Drake> Gonna condense this from 7 parts to 6
- [14:00:45] <@Drake> Death of the Amalgamation can take place in the Irrigo scene
- [14:00:54] <@Drake> Doesn't need its own part
- [14:01:11] JimmyTMalice nods sagely
- [14:01:16] <JimmyTMalice> I understood those words
- [14:01:32] suinicide sends a cooking mama assassin after jimmy
- [14:03:00] <JimmyTMalice> O... kay?
- [14:04:40] <@Drake> Alright, I'm gonna visit my old high school soon
- [14:04:59] <@Drake> But I'm gonna leave this computer on so y'all ain't modless
- [14:07:49] <DrakeMobile> The WOKEst take? https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/psnF0KfZ/IMG_3896.JPG
- [14:12:12] <JimmyTMalice> VavakxNosnexus: Amets is coming on board in a casket, right? I'll put that into the description in the first post
- [14:12:44] <suinicide> oh yeah, and tyrteg wanted a description of what amet's file would look like
- [14:12:53] <suinicide> or rather, what his reaction should be
- [14:13:15] <JimmyTMalice> I've described the casket as heavy, ornate and Egyptian unless you have any objection
- [14:13:43] <VavakxNosnexus> Yeah, alongside a slightly bewildering amount of various other bags, suitcases, chests and w/e else you feel like stuffing in there.
- [14:13:52] <VavakxNosnexus> (Egyptian vibe's good with me)
- [14:14:29] <JimmyTMalice> "After his cursory inspections, he finds everything to be shipshape, although what other shape a ship could be is a mystery."
- [14:14:43] <VavakxNosnexus> Ah ah ah ah.
- [14:15:25] SaraMobile [uid185171@synIRC-2EBDBC52.tooting.irccloud.com] has joined #argo
- [14:15:26] <VavakxNosnexus> But, yeah. I think Amets' file is... kinda mundane? Like, yes they were active on the artistic scene, but they've really died down and haven't actively done anything on record.
- [14:15:41] <VavakxNosnexus> (Read: They're hanging out in their house and going through half-dreams a la the Crown)
- [14:16:00] <VavakxNosnexus> Like, they haven't left their house in... weeks?
- [14:16:47] <VavakxNosnexus> Which is weird. But it's legit. The Beth is a comparatively public place, and nobody was able to confirm that Amets is ever hanging outside their room.
- [14:17:05] suinicide makes a note to remember that
- [14:17:08] suinicide will not remember that
- [14:17:08] <VavakxNosnexus> It's disturbing due to the absence of Anything At All, really.
- [14:19:03] VavakxNosnexus copies this down into a document for Later.
- [14:21:08] Sara [~SaraHysar@synIRC-9356E544.hr.hr.cox.net] is now known as SaraHysaro
- [14:21:17] [PRIVMSG >>> NickServ]: IDENTIFY Fire2646
- [14:21:17] You have set user mode +r
- [14:21:17] ChanServ [services@services.synirc.net] has set mode +o SaraHysaro
- [14:21:22] <VavakxNosnexus> I guess what I'm going for is that Amets is really high-maintenance for what seems like fairly low returns: Unlike most people involved, they haven't done anything major in the last few months and the amount of cargo they're lugging along is really quite a lot.
- [14:22:49] <suinicide> "Who are you?"
- [14:22:49] <suinicide> "I'm the DJ. That's why I need all this stuff."
- [14:25:51] <JimmyTMalice> I think I'll add a disclaimer on the first post that we aren't taking more people, since we already have quite a lot
- [14:27:14] <suinicide> D:
- [14:27:21] <suinicide> This is railroading!
- [14:27:44] <JimmyTMalice> Rocks fall, everyone dies
- [14:31:34] <VavakxNosnexus> But, yeah. It's already a bit much to get together in a single zub at the same time.
- [14:32:24] <JimmyTMalice> On the zub: "It could probably fit a dozen people if they didn’t mind their ribs getting closely acquainted with each other’s elbows."
- [14:32:37] <JimmyTMalice> It will be a squeeze :P
- [14:32:39] <VavakxNosnexus> Fun.
- [14:33:12] VavakxNosnexus is now forced to consider Casket Logistics.
- [14:33:32] <@SaraHysaro> Hopefully nobody's too fussy about personal space :P
- [14:34:10] <VavakxNosnexus> :P
- [14:35:44] <VavakxNosnexus> Okay, now I'm slightly afraid that unless Amets develops additional telepathic abilities, casket might need to go.
- [14:36:29] suinicide spins a bottle
- [14:36:43] <suinicide> looks like we're killing squidly to fit the casket in
- [14:36:49] <JimmyTMalice> Never underestimate the power of Plot Convenience
- [14:37:01] <VavakxNosnexus> Ah ah ah ah.
- [14:37:03] <JimmyTMalice> oh yeah, I forgot about Squidley
- [14:37:20] <VavakxNosnexus> Oh, gods. Squidley is *actually* *happening*, isn't he? :P
- [14:37:31] <JimmyTMalice> He can be a surprise for later
- [14:37:41] <JimmyTMalice> He's just having a bucket of raw fish in his cabin at the moment
- [14:38:12] <VavakxNosnexus> Okay, I've got a mutually agreeable method: Somebody just carries a mirror to all the dinner meetings.
- [14:38:30] <VavakxNosnexus> Or there's one just conveniently hanging on a nearby wall.
- [14:38:50] <suinicide> Amets tore out an eye and replaced it with a curved mirror
- [14:39:05] <suinicide> nobody suspects a thing
- [14:39:13] <VavakxNosnexus> Ah ah ah ah. Surprisingly likely.
- [14:39:23] <JimmyTMalice> Gideon sets an extra place at dinner, puts a mirror in the chair, everyone is confused
- [14:39:32] <VavakxNosnexus> *good*
- [14:41:50] <suinicide> emma actually just tied drake's party boat to the zub so everyone has room
- [14:42:37] <suinicide> its sneaky because noone would suspect a boat of actually being TWO boats
- [14:43:16] <VavakxNosnexus> At least it isn't a boat secretly moved via a pair of worms.
- [14:43:26] <suinicide> ?
- [14:43:56] VavakxNosnexus grumbles at the Eater of Names.
- [14:45:32] <VavakxNosnexus> "A leaf-bladed dagger? Or a long-handled mirror? Either way, it's deadly, and beautiful, edged with a rainbow of sharp and slender diamonds. Your reflection swims in it dimly. This two-natured thing must come from the many-natured city, farthest Irem..."
- [14:45:41] <VavakxNosnexus> Love running into weird things in random parts of SS.
- [14:46:04] <VavakxNosnexus> Mirror-knives *are* a thing after all.
- [14:46:14] <JimmyTMalice> Two Suns post is donezo - now to never post it
- [14:47:22] <VavakxNosnexus> hah
- [14:48:13] <JimmyTMalice> I guess we should work out the Gideon-Henchard deal at some point, suinicide
- [14:48:21] <JimmyTMalice> but there's no big rush
- [14:48:35] <suinicide> afraid I'm going into finals w
