[OOC] The Last Embers (Dark Steampunk/Fantasy)

@shylarah IT IS WORTH THE REWARD

[shylarah]

@CollectorOfMyst ...but it doesn't help me any! *flailing* sugar and caffeine have little effect on me. I come pre-hyper, if it's going to happen. And really, if they DID work it'd be a horror story on my more active days....

[Drakey]

I'm back!

@Lovejoy

That opening scene works perfectly for me. It'll let me sneak all of my heretical bullshit into my area before anyone else knows....

Also @shylarah with Ziotea, I think that works out great. Rodion doesn't have that same level of anxiety when she isn't around and I imagine that they spent a good while mentally preparing themselves for the separation. I know that Rodion has.

I was thinking this for the ship:

[shylarah]

@Drakey ahaha he only has to be around her if she's somewhere in the area? *amused* Man, I wonder what most of their squadmates think of this little drama. For that matter, I wonder if anyone ever tried to ask one or the other of them out...I can only see that going poorly.

[Drakey]

@shylarah

Oh, Rodion is gonna hate (what the hell was that Omestrian's name again). He also doesn't like it when Stina and Ziotea are hanging out and not fighting.

Radar Love <- If you know that song, kudos!

Also, he had to mentally prepare himself before hand for about a week and a half. And he is still a complete wreck. As will be seen in the opening post!

[shylarah]

@Drakey uh...Oren? And I guess Ragnar is too /nice/ to be a threat? =P or he just knows how Ragnar works?

[Drakey]

@shylarah

I know his name was Oren, Rodion doesn't give a shit that that is his name though. Ragnar, I imagine, is like a little brother to Rodion and knows that Ziotea is Rodion's (even though Rodion himself doesn't realize this).

[Lovejoy]

@DrakeyCool pic! I think that’s a bit too big though. I was thinking the arks could be like, a bit bigger than the Normandy from Mass Effect, with the VSS Grace (where most of the SA soldiers will be stationed) being the larger of the two.

@Drakey

I know you didn’t mean any harm by this but can we not treat women like property? Ziotea is *with* Rodion, she isn’t *his*. Thanks!

[Drakey]

@Lovejoy

Oh shit, yea sorry about that. I meant that she was with Rodion and didn't belong to Rodion. Thx for catching that!

[Lovejoy]

@DrakeyTheir relationship is really interesting! Can’t wait to see how it plays out 😁

[Drakey]

@Lovejoy

ok, so it looks like the pic but is about 200 meters long. Ok, do you want to describe it when you get the IC up, or would you rather I described it.

[Lovejoy]

@Drakey I’ll be posting some info on the steam arks in a bit.

[Drakey]

@Lovejoy

Ok, awesome!

[shylarah]

@Lovejoy@Drakey Oh please, Ziotea doesn't belong to anyone. Rodion is /hers/, not the other way 'round. *chuckling*

As an informal and idiomatic useage of the possessive form, I've always mentally attached "significant other" to the form, personally. "Ziotea is Rodion's [girlfriend]". But I'm downright weird, so I can understand if that's not what everyone does. ^.^;;

[Drakey]

@shylarah

Yea, I guess you're right. Rodion, I feel, is the more submissive of the two... >.>

@Drakey

Might Oren ask why Rodion hates him? Actually, wait - Oren takes Ziotea to the ruins.

Also, fair warning, my computer has been frizzing out - Drakey, you may get a whole load of like notifications. I meant to laugh, but you can't delete a rating older than 30 seconds.

[shylarah]

@CollectorOfMyst Rodion is pretty jealous of people -- that is, other guys -- spending time with Ziotea. Oren and Ziotea going on a trip, alone, to a place she's never been and one she's kinda always wanted to see? Without him? Yeaaah, Rodion will not be fond of whoever she goes with. *amused*

[Scout]

@Lovejoy Gonna make those changes now, I'll let y'all know when they're done! Ragnar's relationships look good too!

I'll hit up @CollectorOfMyst and @Draken about relationships when I get my stuff sorted out. Edits and all that. Sorry, trying to calm things down, always takes a week or two after my return to get back into the proper routine.

It's also very confusing that we have Drakey and Draken.
