Damnit, you've got me wanting to find time to post even though I don't have it... :-P Several interesting conversations coming that I really want to get to.

Speaking of which, wasn't there some conversation you really wanted to do "live" or over chat or something? Is that still upcoming or did it get deleted with our changes?

None in particular. Just, in general, if it looks like there is going to be a lot of back and forth between our characters with little chance for long posts, I would like to take those to chat for the sake of my sanity :P

*Shifty eyes* My evil plan is working. . . . .

Something really stupid just occurred to me as I was very sleepy and rereading old posts.

After the later doses, they will essentially be able to read each other's thoughts, right? They will become one mind. If that's the case, then... Shit... what about the information Erik knows... ? I have been thinking that he'd be willing to trust Alexi inside of his head, but I'm not sure if he trusts him enough to give up Resistance secrets. I'll have to bring that up in one of my upcoming posts.

I mean, i know Alexi is trustworthy, but Erik cant be completely sure of that yet. Thats what this whole stunt was supposed to prove. And i know that Erik's knowledge wont matter once Alexi's plan gets inderwa, but rigjt now it could cost lives. He has to realize that he cant just give it up, evwn if he trusted Alexi completely.

As far as a resolution to this, im not sure yet. Either Alexi does not take the rest with him or... im not really sure what. There would have to be a mechanism to stop him frok revealing secrets.

LMAO. . . .There are so many errors in the above post, I just. . . Anyways,t hat aside, they won't be able to read INTO each other's minds. It's more a blending of emotions than it is of mind, however that communication that people have that have been together a long time will be like second nature. Alexi would never be able to dig into Erik's mind. The only time he would see anything is in that last two doses the two of them would share flashes of dreams on occasion, however Alexi doesn't plan on going that far of course. Erik would not have to start worrying about it until the fifth dose, but the plan doesn't go that far :P Yeah, the closest to reading thoughts would be Erik looking over at an object and Alexi understanding that he wants something done with said object, whatever the situation seems to need of it, or something like that. It's hard to explain, but yeah. . .Erik's secrets are safe. Anything he doesn't want to tell Alexi about will remain with him and him alone, such is the nature of the potion. It focuses more around the heart, not the head :P

Lol, sorry about the errors. I was typing from my phone, and I don't use autocorrect because it's often worse than just mistyping. At least you know what I meant. Autocorrect often changes the meaning.

Alright. Since Erik still doesn't totally understand what's going to happen, I might still have him ask about it. Especially since he doesn't actually know that he's not expected to take the later doses.

So, my adviser worked with the head of my department and the registrar's office to literally change the classroom where two classes were held so that I could get into them. They knew they had kind of screwed up and wanted to help me be on the course to graduating on time.

Then I talked to my professors, who are fine with my being in the courses, but basically said "Making up the work and information is your problem, don't bother us about it." One of them says I need to be completely made up before the next test, which is in 2 weeks. The other one says I need to be ready to take the quiz on Thursday. So yeah, I'm going to make up 2 weeks of material in less than two days when I don't even have the books yet since I didn't know if I'd be in these classes or not until today... That's totally realistic. Thanks!

On top of that, I have Thermo homework due Friday, and Technical Writing homework due Sunday...

So, my reply is still on delay. I've been wanting to do it, but with both parts, it becomes nearly a thousand word reply and I want to take the time to do a good job on it instead of just "phoning it in." I might wind up picking Erik's or Joseph's part when I get to it instead of trying to do both for this post. Starting next post I could probably do both.

And I might still try to find a de-stressing break and get at least that half in, 30 mins of study to 15 mins of writing and such, but I just wanted to let you know what was going on right now. And yeah, okay, I probably needed to rant a little bit, because I'm still rather pissed off at the unrealistic expectation. :-)

No problem, take you time. RL comes first, and it sounds like RL is being a dick to you right now. Take your time and feel comfortable with your post before posting. *Nods* I will be waiting, as always.

Lol, if only my professors were as understanding as you... I don't mind making up the work and such, but 2 days to get books, get and organize notes, study all of the notes and text, and do the practice problems ... is completely unrealistic. On the bright side, the professor has all of his office hours tomorrow... so I can just attack him viciously... (with questions, not knives, I swear...)

Well, it might not look good to my department chair and the others who batted for me to get these courses if I start stabbing my professors, tempting as it might be. 'Tis a shame I'm not attending a Klingon run school... "This make up quiz shall be decided by ritual combat!" Actually... I'm not sure what a Klingon school would be like... because challenging your superiors, i.e. professors, is considered dishonorable in many situations. You have to have a very good reason... and I'm totally overthinking this. Thanks for the knife lol. At least it's a Dk'Tagh and not a Hegh'bat knife. (Oh Kahless, I am such a geek...)

Wow, I actually pulled it off. I'm sorry I didn't get to Erik's part, but it was still a pretty lengthy post. I shall work on his part after I get replies out to other people, and with any luck, should have it for the next post or the one after, depending on how fast your replies are.

Sorry again about the slowness.

Lovely post. What did we decide that the new creatures were called again?

I'm still going to be slow... things are untangling, but it's slow work. Currently I still have 3 other replies to do first, as well.

Glad you liked it, we didn't come up with a name so feel free to drop one in(Maybe something epic but sweet), and no worries, I'm not going anywhere :P I hope you don't mind Orion dragging Joseph around, it just seemed to fit.

Yeah, that was fine. I was trying to show that Joseph is clearly second class in this environment without anyone being openly hostile. Orion leading him around like that fit perfectly. And he would have gone anyway, since he knows that the man is one of Alexi's suppliers. In a sense, he is making Josephs job easier.

Ill edit the name of Alexis company if you want. I couldnt really think of anything particularly good.
