I've been doing okay. Generally sleepless, although that's mainly my own fault for staying up so late. I have a few stories swirling around in my head, and I've written intros for a couple of them, but I don't have the motivation to keep writing (what with video games consuming my interest), so they've been lagging behind. Speaking of games, I've rediscovered Heroes of the Storm and League of Legends, and my interest in playing Overwatch again is building. In between games (and during long showers), I've been dreaming up scenarios for our characters. It's awfully tempting to make the ship be a sort of Wise Mother figure, but the fact of the matter is, she's a poor pilot, hasn't seen much (if any) combat, and hasn't had much human interaction. So she'll be more like a child in personality, albeit much more reserved and introspective. Some scenarios I'd dreamed up... * The Raving Maiden's Q-Core is currently the property of a shady character (like a Pirate Lord or something) within Confederate territory. Since we're not terribly well-armed, we'll have to use our cunning to get it back. * Back on Crescent Prime, we're introduced to the Mission Computer, where we can pick and choose what missions we want to take on. Major storyline quests may show up there. * One mission is a cargo job. Normally, cargo is handled at an orbital space station where dedicated freighters can transport it, but this job is a special request from a small factory business that doesn't have the funds to buy a freighter or a slot in a space station. They need help both loading the cargo and transporting it, and the Raving Maiden, with the thrust of an ex-battleship, is perfect for the job. * One mission is a passenger transport job. A family of three wants to be shuttled to the orbital condominiums to start a new life, but their reason for that is less than rational. See, they all hate each other, and their constant infighting aboard the Maiden gets on the crew's nerves. If we can help the family reconcile before we reach the condos, they might tip us with a substantial bonus. Still thinking up scenarios. How are you doing?
