Sounds good! Don't know if I can reply today due to schedule, but I'll do what I can!

No rush on my end so if you get round to it bonus but no worries if not! ^^

WHAT a day yesterday! Sorry for the lack of posting, but I had to take an exam for graduate school entrance(again xD), so my brain was scrambled egg xD

So, after reading the post, it would make a lot of sense for them to go BACK to the Quensu to get more information, but are we going with the idea that all the information in the libraries was taken already? If so, then I can have Yerbol find a couple of things in the new library, but if not, then we can make a quick stop on Quensu. That would give me an opportunity to introduce some of our new Xiia friends that have already gotten off world 0_0

Oohhhh no worries, haha fingers crossed you did well! O.o

Sorry for the delayed response, I was in a meeting this afternoon XD I hadn't stopped to think they'd already taken everything out of Quensu actually my bad haha thank you for reminding me XD Guess we could have them find something in their library that they have to make a stop off on Quensu to confirm maybe? Like a landmark or something that they have to check? o.of cause I quite like the idea of meeting some of our new baddies hehe

I got the score required for entrance, so yay! Thanks for the well wishes :)

Gotcha! I'll throw something together in the next hour or so :)

Yay! Congrats! =D

And awesome, I look forward to it!

Sorry about cutting it short! Things came up at work. You can get us near the grove if you'd like and I'll throw the Xiia at them in the next post :)

No worries, all looks good! I shall get them up there and it up for the Xiia to appear then! :D

LOVE the concept of the Whispers thing, that's eerily awesome! *shudders at the thought* XD

Bleeeh this one feels super short as well sorry :/ but I didn't want to go too far ahead to give you some flexibility for bringing the Xiis in ;)

Hehe Heh, relax Ari it was just a tree root....or was it? *cackles* XD

Yay for Whispers! Thanks for introducing them. Soooooo looking forward to this chapter/season/act! This totally feels like a tone change for us, kind of like the tone change from KOTOR 1 to KOTOR 2, right?

KOTOR 1/Our first act: Save the galaxy! Fall in love! Destroy the bad guy! Yaaaay!

KOTOR 2/What our second act is shaping up to be: Everything's dark! Bad guys are going to be super brutal and even more menacing due to their psychotic nature! Relationships get put on hold because...well, everything's dark! Get trained by a creepy Master! (Kreia gave me the willies xD)

Hey, speaking of relationships in KOTOR 2, did you romance anyone? Cause I tried to romance Visas and that sucked because it wasn't a very definitive "romance". She sort of idolized the Exile and looked at him as a demigod rather than a lover. Tried to romance Handmaiden and that doesn't work. Mira just outright says you're an old man(who, now that I think about it, could be a young Neta...) Any different for the female Exile?

By the way, I laughed really hard at Aria's reaction to the tree root! For all of her dual sabering awesomeness, she's such a cutie xD

Ikr! I love how dark and gritty this one is, definitely like the tone change in the KOTORs. (Kreia creeped me out too, I had a bad feeling about that old lady from the start lol)

The romance options in KOTOR 2 were REALLY rubbish, not gonna lie :/ i think because it was rushed and mostly unfinished they didn't really finish them properly and thus they were very disappointing and lackluster. Essentially your options were Atton or Disciple (which is the guy in the Enclave on Dantooine, for female Exile he joins you instead of Handmaiden/Brianna ;)) I freaking love Atton as a character but his romance was also very unsatisfying and not properly done D: (though you did get an ADORABLE as heck seen around about Dxun time where he teaches you to play Pazaak in your head like he does in order to shield your mind from attacks from other Force users and tells you that "no one will ever hurt you again because you'll be right here with me, playing Pazaak where they can't get to you" which is the closest thing to an "I love you" that you get in the vanilla version :/) Disciple was just...eh, for me, I didn't like him. Like Visas it was kinda more like idol worship than a romance XD

Though if you have the Steam version you can get the Restored Content Mod which gets into the coding and "re-activates" all the unwritten stuff that they coded for and it makes the romances actually work nicely (Atton's one is just hnnnnggg <3 XD though I haven't done a male Exile playthrough with it installed yt to find out the difference with Visas or Handmaiden but if Atton is anything to go by...it'll be pretty good XD)

Hahaha! Yeah, I laughed hard writing it too. Cause underneath all her "I'm a scary dual saber wielding badass" she IS still a girl XD

Ok, see, that's a TON better than the male playthrough. Maybe because the Exile is supposed to be female in canon they did more writing for her? And you totally read my mind about the restored content mod! Played through KOTOR 2 with it and WOW it made a difference, especially when it came to endgame. SO much made sense after that mod, but the romances still sucked xD.

Honestly, out of all the romance options in the Old Republic universe, I love the romance with Elara as the trooper. You get to see her grow as a character SO much. She has doubts, strengths, anxieties and all this depth...plus she calls you "my dear" after the romance is completed, which is just adorable coming from a former Imperial who could snap your neck in a second. What's your favorite, seeing as I never played the female side(my wife LOVED Felix while playing as the consular...I had competition from a virtual character for my wife's affections for a while, but Felix is so bloody smooth that I almost understood xD)

Yeah seems like they focused more on the canon fem Exile for romance there, definitely XD Atton's romance is just sooo adorable my God I love that Scoundrel XD though funnily enough the alternative lines where he loses the duel with Sion and dies in her arms are sweeter than the endgame ones where he lives and supposedly follows her to go and find Revan :P

I haven't got to Felix yet for my consular but apparently he's a really nice romance option haha and I really need to roll a male trooper to romance Elara haha to be honest I'm not a huge fan of most of the female romance options in game (that I've encountered so far. Corso Riggs is just...eh, and Aric kinda creeps me out with the whole not having much hair on his head thing XD He doesn't look like a 'proper' Cathar and I find it kinda off putting even if his personality is OK XD haven't done Imperial Agent yet so not sure about those) and my favourite two are actually Kira and Vette for male Knight and Sith Warrior XD (that sassy Twi'lek is just SO funny I love her. Actually made Takree to go with her I think because they're like a perfect match haha)

Man, now I want to youtube all this(I used youtube as a verb...what have I become? xD)

Kira and Vette are almost identical, aren't they? That's not a bad thing, but I found it striking that both Knight and Warrior(similar classes) got similar companions to balance them out(stalwart of light meets fiery and sassy redhead/killing machine meets fiery and sassy Twi'lek)

Anyhow, post incoming soon! Discussing literary theory with kids today, so might be later in day

You should, it's quite heart-wrenching ;w; XD

Haha they are really now that I think about it XD

Sweet, I look forward to it whenever it comes! :)

PROFUSE apologies for getting this out so late, but I didn't get the inspiration I needed until after dinner. Songs I pulled from/listened to are below: (stole straight up from the first link, but eh, we're not developing this into a novel or video game arc unless we get paid...we can rework it then xD)

P.S.: I LOVE how creepy/dark this is getting

Gosh it would be awesome as heck if we ever did get to make it like officially published fan-lore though haha (we can dream I guess? XD)

Had a quick read and a listen before hitting the sack and holy MOLY that is creepy as anything! Bring on the creepy, yes! *cheers*

Ohhhh maaaaannnnn this act/series is gonna be a good one! O_O

Tried to keep up the creepy vibes we had going, that awesome music helped loads! Hope that wasn't moving through the fight scene too quick o.o

Ghost dad also (sort of) to the rescue! Seemed like an appropriate moment for him to pop in to lend a little hand XD

Next response may not be in time before the weekend as we're having power outages at home today and I dunno when they'll be fixed o.o if I don't get the chance to get anything else to you before then have a good weekend! :D

Oh man, those teeth. Nice touch! We'll have to include that in some of the more primal Xiis(aaand I realized I had Renso call them Xiia. Whoops xD)

Ghost Dad! Makes sense, though! That entire sector of Wild Space is just teeming with the Force, so why wouldn't Roan's Force...spirit(?) be able to communicate with Aria, especially in a grove that specifically had the fragments of those long ago.

Oh that's not fun. Hope that gets fixed and you're able to have stable power for the weekend!

You'll have a post to come back to :)

There we go! Feel free to get them inside. I can get Renso talking or, if you have him begin, I can have the dialogue continue :)
