No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

@Winter Kitten Indeed that's the thing, usefulness trumps everything in this regard, and as you're unfrozen that means your useful.

I can't speak for other peoples characters, as I said. They may have a negative view on homosexual individuals, I mean there will be a lot of hate, anger, depression and confusion on the ship for a while @FrozenEcstasy

@FrozenEcstasy I can speak for the Captain, he's not gonna have a problem with you.

@Sep

Ah, good thing I'm going to be playing a Psychotherapist trained in crisis management 8D

Asking the hard questions, here, I see.

Nah, as someone in the same predicament, I was just about to wonder at the same thing. I'm guessing sperm bank is the most logical answer, however. This far into the future? Science probably progressed enough to give gay couples biological, test tube babies, even. I don't know how that'd work and I'm not a biologist, but, it's not too hard to imagine someone figuring something of that nature out. Eventually, at the very least.

Other than that, I don't see reproductive uselessness being as much of an issue to others if they had other uses on the ship. What's a few people out of thousands? Human reproduction is always going to raise exponentially if there's more than a few hundred willing to procreate. Habitation and resources are more of a factor than "Is this person willing to engage in coitus with the opposite sex?" However, that's only logically speaking. In a situation like this, panic may give way to illogical thinking, which may give way to thinking that homosexuality would be the undoing of mankind. Aha. >_>

@Winter Kitten

You wanna be my secret gay lover? BAHA

No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

@FrozenEcstasy I kinda hinted at it in the canon section, they're trying to select people who are viable for reproduction which means they are trying to not end up with any gay people onboard simply because it's easier for people to actually y'know, do the nasty rather than artificial insemination. Obviously depending on the characters skills or what he knows (like if he's the smartest man on Earth) they'll be like "Nevermind his sexuality, we need him on board!"

How other characters react is upto the players, I hope that answers your question.

@Sep

Ah okii. So now that he's on the ship they're kinda stuck with him cause it's not like they can just kick him off or kill him, but if he's really skilled then he has a better chance of being better accepted by superiors on the ship?

<Snipped quote by FrozenEcstasy>

Oh wow, that's actually an interesting thing to think about. Maybe he keeps it a secret, then it comes out, and it causes a rift among the civilians who support it, and the staff who don't on the grounds of his reproductive uselessness?

@Firecracker_

Well he's not useless, I'd imagine that they were smart enough to have artificial insemination on the ship, but I'm wondering if it's an issue or just a thing they work around.

Question:
As a gay man looking at this RP, and being your stereotypical gay throwing his sexuality everywhere, I was wondering, would it be a plot point if someone on the ship was gay (therefore slightly problematic to producing offspring), or would it just be "Oh you're gay... Put some sperm in the bank and we'll talk later."

Also guys, I'll let you in on a little something... I wouldn't take the 32nd for granted, as they're probably going to be the only (sane) non-powered group that will actually be on the side of our heroes. Our heroes will face all kinds of non-powered adversaries (depending on what you guys do, really). Religious cults, terrorist organizations, criminal rings, slave traffickers, fascist governments, privatized militaries, and possibly even the CIA and the entire military of Turkey.

As for powered adversaries, there's Powered Supremacists, as well as a few powered versions of above, and rival alliance gangs. And possibly something even deeper... and darker... MWAHAHAHAHHA!!!!

@AbandonedIntel

*ahem*
Will you be using character backstories as possible plot feed? Jackson's daughter is being held, and presumably used and abused, by some group due to her ability to produce copious amounts of energy. It's a backstory for this character I've used for YEARS, but I always enjoy when it aids in plot development ^^

It's because everyone has to use my ideas yup yup. I'm best idea maker.

Ha-ha what's up with everyone wanting go be a ghost or half dead all of a sudden lol

@Angel Eyes

I was first. They're all copying me I tell you.

I just discovered that G did a Batman sketch among his villains.

Sadly I haven't, I'm not too big on comics as I am the other media they spawn.
I think the only non-japanese comic I've ever followed is Umbrella Academy, and I still need to read Dallas.

*looks around and twiddles foot*

Yes, I'm that big of a fanboy for those of you whom haven't noticed a theme with me yet >.>;
