Ok. I can see that. Power, corruption, etc.

Do our characters have some alternative in place for the Organization? Or are they just at the "destroy it and see what happens" phase?

Are we still doing the thing about the half-blood child?

Thank you for waiting. Sorry. I don't ever want to be that sick again...

No, Pope, I don't see. I'm sorry if I'm disappointing or pathetic, but I'm sick and I'm tired and I don't remember what we talked about and I just don't get it.

Has it hit mass genocide of innocents? And where did baby slaying come from? I seem to recall that the organization punished those who threatened to destroy the peace, and babies would hardly do that. I thought the people who started the organization were... well, reliable? Also, if they tear it down, the war would start back up, and the same attack that killed all the children in the first place might get used again. Unless, of course, by "baby slaying" you are implying that the Organization was the one who launched the original nasty magic attack in the first place, knowing what it would do?

Makes perfect sense. Can we take a slight detour back in time, to remind me of what exactly we plan to do with this plot. I know we have the organization, and that we have a Daywalker and a Nightwalker who are working together to make sure that the Daywalkers and the Nightwalkers at large don't fight. But we aren't still going with "tear down the Organization" are we? Seeing as how that is really the only thing keeping both species safe, are we? And we've also established that having "mixed" parentage isn't completely uncommon, so it isn't as though the story would be focusing on the kid. What were we planning to do? I also don't know who is taking which character on the side. I don't really care, so would you prefer a Day or Nightwalker?

Sounds good. I definitely think that stereotypes have their place, because it is going to color the general attitudes of other people, but we can work through them as well. What is next?

This, That, and The Other Thing ~ PopeAlessandros x Jiskastya

Fair enough. List can be postponed. I'll do a little bit of research when we get to that point, and will make it so that you don't have to do everything. Promise.

What would you like to address next?

This, That, and The Other Thing ~ PopeAlessandros x Jiskastya

Mostly. Are you going to want to compile an actual list, in that case? Where we know just what kinds of species exist? Or are we still going to leave it somewhat up in the air until it settles itself out in-story? I'm fine with making a list, although you may have to take point on that. Just because my head for remembering mythological creatures I enjoy is currently lolling out of a speeding car window like a dog...

That will work. I'm assuming that we don't want our characters to be ones who have made a choice? Because they are opposite and supposedly hate each other?

I can see some exceptions, but I'm also thinking we should probably avoid such sweeping covers as "fairies." :) For some reason, I can't really see a boggart as a Daywalker. Unless of course by fairies you meant small winged tricksters, and not the whole sweeping "fey" group, in which case I am now mildly embarrassed.

Either way, I think we can move on to the next thing?

24 hour poke. Even though I'll probably be in bed before I get a chance to read it. <3
