All Mary needs to do is bug the teacher's lounge...

What makes you think Mary hasn't done that already Pssssh gossip, what gossip? Mary knows nothing about gossip. Just like Mary would said, she would be learning and confirming technical information that people won't usually talk about in casual conversation for a completely educational purpose

Aaron hears everything, but gives nothing back. It is kind of a law of nature.


(The problem of what happens to the information associated with things falling into a black hole is an area of active research in theoretical physics)

 

[Gus]

I banter and gossip with my students all the time, but then, I am an extrovert, and most of my students are old enough to vote, so I pretty much treat them as I would any other colleague.

 

[Gus]

Mind you, things do get said in the teacher's lounge that would not be said in public. Sometimes I feel like my students are more mature than my colleagues.

If I may, the auto-hits wouldn't have been there most likely if Swan hadn't commandeered an attack. That's to say, I'm not trying to start a fight, here. Just pointing it out. He didn't really have a way of knowing that those suits would behave how they did, right? But Eve was just following orders.

Just because I wrote Swan giving the signal didn't mean it was to attack, he asked Jericho to protect the public, not lay into the knights. What with her power to construct things like walls and shields, and her being a collateral damage lecturer, I thought that would have been a given


And even then, even if Swan did say to attack, I wasn't the GM for that scene, I couldn't have said to you to make those hits connect. That would have been Frixz's job.


But I digress. In my opinion, you should have spaced the actions out a bit more, maybe one or two directly replyable actions per post. That would have given Frixz a chance to respond individually to each punch headed her characters' way, because NPCs or not, Frixz was in control of the Knights' actions and therefore also their responses.


If that happened, we possibly could have extended the scene out, potentially given more chances for dialogue from either side, more flexible responses, more input from the other non teacher characters present who were sadly relegated to audience members due to the quick flurry of actions needing responses in single posts. It would also have given a chance to bulk the scene out more, add more description to the scenery, characters thoughts, feelings, and actions.


Sometimes it's not the best idea to go gung-ho and play all your cards at once, if you hold back some plays you can get better writing out in the long run, develop your character more.


Although given the wounds, I'd say Eve is definitely gonna be seeing some character development anyway, same with Swan over the failure, and Red too with his anger at losing a hostage. So... Although the good guys lost, that doesn't mean it's a bad thing from a writing perspective, it's given us a chance to embellish on our characters (in)ability to cope with loss, failure, and shame, which I for one think is a fucking fantastic opportunity as a writer

I could try to justify her actions further, but I'll just agree with your last paragraph instead. I really wanna see what happens next.

 

[Giyari]

@Aldur The last paragraph was really the only bit that wasn't my own opinion as a writer to be honest, it was the important part :3

 

[Lemon Boy]

Thinking about basically creating a Doctor Doom-Esque Commonwealth Agent / Teacher character to use.


Advanced robotics and all that, would be coolio.


Not sure, what y'all think?


He'd stick out like a throbbing sore thumb wherever he'd go though. xD

[QUOTE="St Indigo]what y'all think

[/QUOTE]
I think you should post as Kyle nearly being squished by Tabitha running through the parking lot.

 

[Giyari]

@St Indigo Well, in the last RP, I used a character called Paige, an android built by Commonwealth, "she" looked pretty human, yet was entirely machine.

Spoiler

Given that this RP is 22 years in the future, that's 22 years advancement in medicine and technology. Would he have to look so archaic?

 

[welian]

He runs an aesthetic blog, you goddamn philistine.

 

[Lemon Boy]

Hm, you have a point there!


I just thought the art was really cool.


That art for Paige is omega level pretty btw.


also welian plz you embarrass me.


but i shall do as u say.

 

[welian]

[QUOTE="St Indigo]but i shall do as u say.

[/QUOTE]
You'll make the scary metal man run an aesthetic blog?

 

[Aldur]

My idea for a character goes like this:


A rank-S memelord whose super power is internet memes. Think Sanic Boom Speakers, Doge Mechanical Units, Bad Luck Brian Probability Manipulation, Infra-Rare Pepe Vision and more.

 

[Lemon Boy]

@welian


he's gonna have his own pinterest page yo.


"HOW TO: MAKE YOUR KILLER ROBOT BOTH A DEADLY KILLING MACHINE AND FASHIONABLE!

 

[Aldur]

[QUOTE="St Indigo]it's things like this that'll get your character's disfigured by exploding shrapnel.

[/QUOTE]
That's insensitive. And frankly, too soon.


Also, I was just poking fun at people sharing character ideas in the OOC.


If the memelord does become a reality, I would like to announce that the source of his powers is 4chan.

[QUOTE="Lazy Rocktime]m8 you're only one year my elder chill you have your whole life ahead of you

[/QUOTE]
Two and I expected you to be like three years older than me, somehow

 

[Lemon Boy]

Oh, I didn't mean it for that to come across as rude or anything, I was just teasing; sorry about that. :c


I'll get rid of the comment. @Aldur


also i bet 4chan would still look the same in 2040.

 

[Aldur]

@Aldur[/URL]


also i bet 4chan would still look the same in 2040.

I was also... rather... teasing


BUT NONETHELESS


I do agree with you. It's a foolproof early 2000s design. Don't fix what ain't broken I say. And don't worry, I gotcha. No need to be sorry.

*slides arms over desk and makes everything fly off*


Mmkkkkaaaaayyy!


Kyle post coming soon and possible profile of super archaic, doctor doom, edgy, cynical shitlord.

You'll be pleased to know that I legitimately stated that he runs a fashion blog / Pinterest page dedicated to aesthetics.


It's mainly catered to a small niche of Engineers, Robotic & Cybernetic Enthusiasts.

It's a post-modern thing. Throwback chassis are fashionable.
