Exactly. When you can't hide, make a smokescreen!

Yeah, they/their is perfectly acceptable for one person. If you were to use the sentence 'He took out his trash' how would you say it if you didn't know *their* gender? 'They took out their trash'.

I'm sort of lost. And that's a new for me. What exactly is going on? Why are we playing the pronoun game?

Because Flan's gender is undetermined, Unlucky was looking for the best way to refer to them.

Unlucky's character's gender is ambiguous and Unlucky wants it to remain that way.

My first inclination was that Morgan was a guy, which leads me to believe she is a she.

As my first chance to gain exp has been RUINED I am going to employ a very gimmicky method of gaining exp and hope no one pays enough attention to notice and question it. No one tell the GM's /s

Welp, I forsook the OOC to get my 100th post as the IC, but damn, that was sorta fun to write. So much edginess though~

Reap, do you want to do a small collab for the cellphone conversation? I'm assuming that it takes place before the President's announcement.

Just try to mix up the sentence to omit the use of gender defining pronouns. Like the dinner part you mentioned earlier,

"XXX ate dinner, and XXX did so with such enthusiasm." (omitting gender defining words temporarily, let me try this)

I'l just use xxx for want of a replacement name.

"xxx brought the spoon up and consumed the contents, chewing quickly before swallowing it in time to gulp down another spoon. xxx continued at a rapid pace, practically inhaling the meal with gusto."

Anyway, just figure it out somehow. Maybe write it up first and figure it out afterwards.

Someone should just cup his/her crotch and confirm already in the IC. Or ask.

That'd probably be simpler than going through the whole 'gender pronoun' discussion. XD
