Edgedancer he/him Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Nighthound is a sick person. I wonder how Lightwards will react to this. He envisioned... a friendlier, more egalitarian approach to Epic recruitment. Collars and slaps are kind of the opposite of friendliness and egalitarianism. Yes, yes he is. To be fair, she stabbed him first. Cool. I guess I should post something soon as well. Have Lightwards go back to the Museum to sulk get a new shirt, perhaps. By the way, I'm re-reading Steelheart at the moment and noticed that a powerful Epic named Snowfall is mentioned to live in Sacramento. What if we made a few references to odd changes in the weather every now and then, as a result of Snowfall's presumed weather manipulation? He could go and cry to inform Nighthound how no one listens to him one half of the team just became incredibly untrustworthy. Seems legit. 2
Voidus Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 He could go and cry to inform Nighthound how no one listens to him one half of the team just became incredibly untrustworthy. Well PP is two people, so technically 2/3rds of the team became untrustworthy ;P 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 Yes, yes he is. To be fair, she stabbed him first. This isn't going to become a Han Solo sort of thing, is it? He could go and cry to inform Nighthound how no one listens to him one half of the team just became incredibly untrustworthy. It's a sad day when Lightwards is choosing Nighthound as his confidante. 1
Voidus Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I did blow that piece of paper up in my bit Twi, shall I just edit it out?
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 Ah, that's right. Sorry, long night at work. I'll edit mine.
Voidus Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 No worries, I guess we both had the same idea to make sure no one else read it
Voidus Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I really want to see a fight between the Toymaker and Funtimes XD Let the insanity go forth! (Also let the inevitable shipping commence) 2
Edgedancer he/him Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I really want to see a fight between the Toymaker and Funtimes XD Let the insanity go forth! (Also let the inevitable shipping commence) That might destroy the universe... or at least the building they are in. (let´s not talk about the madness that might be unleashed.) To get back to my question above, would it be okay to ask for proper "limitations" on what PP is capable of/ carries around? As things stand now he´s the only one where the capabilities are not clearly defined.
Voidus Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Oh right, sorry thought that was directed towards Toymaker for some reason :SYou've basically seen what he has to offer, the belt which can deflect metal based projectiles and the gloves for destabilizing things. Everything else he carries is pretty mundane, some engineering tools, pocket of pebbles, and his various personalities
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 I really want to see a fight between the Toymaker and Funtimes XD Let the insanity go forth! (Also let the inevitable shipping commence) Portland would never be the same. (On the upside, there would be a lot of very happy children.) As for shipping, I'm more of a Mobiustimes shipper. Opposites attract and all that. XD 1

Kobold King he/him Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Remington Springfield is a pony now. He looks ready to direct snark and bullets at Epics all over Equestria. 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 He looks ready to direct snark and bullets at Epics all over Equestria. He's seen Bigfoot. He fears nothing.
Edgedancer he/him Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 He's seen Bigfoot. He fears nothing. You could write an Epic about his adventures. 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 You could write an Epic about his adventures. Messin' with Sasquatch: One Hunter's Quest to Prove all Epics would Lose against the Northwest's Hide-and-Seek Champion 2

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 Hmmmmm......I have the sudden urge to ship Alice/Remington, but I'm not sure how Kobold would feel about that..... 2
Kobold King he/him Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Hmmmmm......I have the sudden urge to ship Alice/Remington, but I'm not sure how Kobold would feel about that..... I haven't objected to any of the previous acts of insanity. What makes you think I'd be the champion of rationality now? 2

What makes you think I'd be the champion of rationality now? I'll take that as a yes. He saw her through the scope of his rifle, wandering through the pines and ferns with her hands buried in her hair. She sank to the earth and hugged her knees to her chest, staring at the trunk of a tree as though the secrets of the universe were written there. Remington lowered his rifle and made his way through the ferns. He noted details as he approached: how her lips moved soundlessly, how she rocked back and forth, the look of fear on her otherwise blank face. He wasn't one for wasting time, especially with Epics swarming the area, but he'd have to with this one. "Ma'am?" Her head snapped toward him. "Ma'am, are you all right?" "All right." Remington raised an eyebrow. This was trauma if he'd ever seen it. "An Epic did this to you." She blinked a few times. "Yes." He sat down beside her. This was bad. Worst he'd seen yet. "Think you could name him?" "Think." She paused, staring off into space again before nodding slowly. "Yes. I think....I think he was wrong." "You can say that again." "I think he was wrong," she repeated, more forcefully this time. Remington hesitated only a moment. "What'd you think if I killed him?" He thought she almost smiled. Not quite shipping yet, but I think there's room for love to grow on this assassination vacation. 3

Not quite shipping yet, but I think there's room for love to grow on this assassination vacation. I wiped a little tear from my eye. Alice lost her husband and her life to an Epic--I'm certain Remington must have lost someone as well. Why else would he hate Epics so badly, snarking back to them with no regard to his own safety? The mark of a man who's so heartbroken he unconsciously seeks death. Remington and Alice: he lost the will to live and she's slowly regaining hers. They've both lost loved ones, and are prepared to tear down all of Oregon to avenge themselves. This is an OTP in the grand tradition of OTPs. When's the soonest they can meet in canon? 1

As I wrote it, I thought, "I can actually see this working." How soon can we get Alice to Tillamook? That's the best place I can see for a private meeting. 1

That's the best place I can see for a private meeting. After a day or two of wandering, she'll start trailing the Wacko Brigade. As long as Lightwards or Nathan goes to Tillamook, she'll probably follow. I'm actually seriously considering having Alice Regway as a secondary character, after she's had an in-game week or two to get her head straight. This all depends on whether she'd have anything interesting to do, of course. 2

I'm actually seriously considering having Alice Regway as a secondary character, after she's had an in-game week or two to get her head straight. This all depends on whether she'd have anything interesting to do, of course. Teaming up with Remington, Nathan or both would be interesting. And for a secondary character, I am in full support of Alice. She has a great deal of potential both for development and for adding some twists. The only problem I can see there is that Funtimes just teleports straight there without leaving a trail. Alice could catch Remington alone and ask where Nathan goes each night--as a hunter/survivalist, Remington would know the Oregon forests well and perhaps be able to figure out where he was by a combination of memory and landmarks. Failing that, he could always ask Nathan, who should start forming a plan of his own after I introduce Funtimes' weakness. 1
