I’ve started watching Gargantia on Netflix, and it’s a bit cringey at times but most anime is let’s be honest. Kinda enjoying it though, I like the setting.

I was also thinking about some other bits and bobs that might be fun to relate to this RP; anyone ever play the game SOMA? It’s a sci-fi horror game that takes place at the bottom of the sea, stuff happens but it’s starts with a base in a trench doing science or whatever, which was something I’d immediately started thinking of adapting for the RP. Underwater settles could face so very many problems but if there’s not one rapture reference what’s the point??? Oh and Subnautica. If we can mars base we can ocean base, also the ocean is literally right there and if rich peeps had enough advance warning to build a Dominus they very well could have done the same thing underwater as above- or even underground; make your doomsday bunker airtight and self sustaining, maybe some access to pull fresh air from a much more elevated point... you get the idea.

Also AI, are those a thing yet? Could they be a thing like say on the [i]Syans[/i] or from Mars? What about new species of critter? I know my ambiguous venomous white serpent went down without comment, and while I vaguely based it on actual sea snakes I didn’t research it at all, and there are sea monster esque images on the Pinterest board, anything else like that around?

I wanted to ask about NPCs too, like who plays them and what does adoptable even mean really? Like is that somebody taking them on as a main character or as a minor secondary character? 

And since I was chatting about Netflix I have a recommendation for everyone because Kipo is an amazing little show that just came out and it’s so good!
