[OOC] You never see it coming[Freedomliveson/The Elvenqueen]

[The Elvenqueen]

I look forward to discovering it along with Ari! They seemed like a complicated dynamic as well so no hard feelings there XD

And no worries! I shall do my best to get it all typed up and ready for you tonight, but it might take longer than I thought because my laptop has decided to periodically forget our broadband exists so I have to type it out by phone o.o (RIP my fingers XD)

[freedomliveson]

Well that stinks! Thanks muchly though for the help.

Also, my meeting was MUCH shorter than expected and my brain needs a break, so post incoming shortly!

[The Elvenqueen]

Hooray for short meetings, they're always nicer! (because long ones get super boring! hahaha XD)

oh man, this stuff is interesting though o.o
Feel free to reign in and change any of my ideas if they get too close to 'crackpot' XD

[freedomliveson]

YES. Oh man yes. Had SO many of those at my old place of employment. Thankfully the people here are very respectful of our time.

I'm sure! Can't wait to read what you found!

Also, no pressure, but posted...and it felt so good to not have to write about them getting shot at for once xD

[The Elvenqueen]

Posted it! Warning: serious brainfart haha XD

Haha I bet! I imagine Ari and Bol are glad for it too (the bit about them ganging up on the people that threw rocks at them was SO them it made me cackle too) XD I shall work on a reply now, should be able to get one more in before I have to hit the sack (or at the very least start it and have it up early tomorrow before I go into work so it's ready for you later XD)

EDIT: Rakghoul burgers!! *gigglesnort*

[The Elvenqueen]

Was GOING to include Renso starting to appear at the end of this post but it didn't seem to fit o.o so figured we could start integrate it into the next set of posts (or two) to sort of ease into it a little bit(thoughts?XD)? Hope you don't mind the brief mention of Manso and Neta in the last paragraph XD

[freedomliveson]

Oh for sure. Their adorable-ness is too cute to spoil with Renso right now. Mind if we keep up the cuteness for the next set of posts, then I can introduce him in the posts afterward? I want to keep this up for just a bit longer xD

(So basically we can just have them talk about stuff going on/be mushy together for the next posts, then that night they can be in bed together and WHAM, Renso wakes them up?)

Also, you rock at lore building! Will post thoughts on characters tab/post later today :)

[The Elvenqueen]

Aaaahhhh I'm so glad it's not just me, I didn't want to ruin the adorable with Renso's "WAAAAHHHH DOOM AND DESPAIR!" yet either hahaha

Sounds like a plan to me! :D

Mwahahaha it was fun to read up on though I think I got a BIT carried away with the history stuff XD I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

[The Elvenqueen]

Pillow fight, enough said XD

Left it open for you to add Renso in whenever you like, I'll follow your lead on that one haha

[freedomliveson]

Haha! I like how Ari is like "horse around harder!". Oh be careful what you wish for, my dear xD

Gotcha! I'll put renso in the next post.

[The Elvenqueen]

That's probably gonna come back to bite her later but hey, she can't complain that she didn't ask for it ;) XD

Awesome! :)

[freedomliveson]

So that didn't turn out like I expected. The post just kinda...wrote itself? If that makes sense? Totally don't mind if you have them fall asleep and have Renso reach out to them, but I just kinda felt like...well, three things:

1. They've never had stability before now and Yerbol wants to keep that up, hence his request for getting a place together
2. I wanted to do more with Renso...and he wanted more screen time, so he just kinda took over the middle part xD
3. And I also needed to give us a reason for Renso to get worked up, hence the intro to one of our main villains. I LOVE LOVE LOVE writing her due to how different of a style I have to adapt.

I also realized that this Act is going SO much darker than Act 1. Kinda like the original trilogy!

[The Elvenqueen]

Sure I can make that a part of my next post! :D

Awww I love how nervous he gets about bringing it up, bless him! Naturally it's definitely something they would be wanting to consider since it would give them stability (and privacy hehe) like you said XD

Renso deserved to have an epic curtain call so good on him, and MAN this new lady sounds super kick butt, can't wait to see more of her later XD

[The Elvenqueen]

Apologies for the delay in posting this one, started working on it and then had to deal with an emergency so didn't get to finish it for a few hours D: but hope you have a good weekend!

I wasn't sure how to represent/describe Renso reaching out to them so feel free to modify it if you need to in part of your next post before moving them on (: (figured they'd want to talk it over with the other Masters before they went prancing off through space trying to find some sign of him XD)

Also figured they would naturally assume that he was already dead and not realise that he was still (barely) alive and in the process of dying until perhaps they're a bit closer to finding them? OuO

[freedomliveson]

All looks great! Yeah, I would assume that they would...well, assume that Renso would be dead. I mean, the guy IS thousands of years old.

I WILL explain that, by the way! xD

I also need to explain Tabitha's Force sensitivities, although you kinda did that with the bloodline stuff. Maybe I'll do it later...sometime xD

Anyway, post incoming in the next couple of hours :)

[The Elvenqueen]

They're gonna be kinda shocked when they realise he's not quite dead yet haha XD

Ohh I look forward to that :O cool, no rush here on my end!

[freedomliveson]

Alright, so I've GOT to think that with the sanctuary cities being built up, the Council would want to at least start establishing "ranks" and protocol.

I've been thinking about the hierarchy and I came up with this. Let me know what you think?

Disciple <--First rank
Apprentice <--Second rank (I always liked that term)
Knight <---Third rank (I'm struggling with this one, seeing as it feels too Jedi-ish)
Champion <---Fourth rank (Sort of like an in-between for foot soldier and Master)
Master <---Fifth rank

Obviously there are specializations and whatnot that we can come up with as we go. What do you think?

Also, the "plans" would be for Yerbol and Aria to be formally ordained Champions.

What do you think of all this? Suggestions? Additions? Subtractions?

[The Elvenqueen]

Establishing some kind of ranking system definitely sounds like a good idea! And I quite like the rank names, even having the third one as "Knight" still would be a nice callback to the old ranks I guess (though we could have something like "Neophyte" instead if we wanted it to be less Jedi-ish (though it might make sense to have Neophyte as the first rank in that case and bump the other two up one in their place, so something like:

Rank 1: Neophyte
Rank 2: Disciple
Rank 3: Apprentice
Rank 4: Champion
Rank 5: Master?

That'd be a nice surprise for our duo, for sure! Will work on a response now, if I don't have it up tonight it'll be finished in the morning XD dad caught the flu and it's spread to eeeveerryybody in the house, feeling a bit o.o

[freedomliveson]

That'll work!

Oh man, sorry for that development! Hope he and others feel better quickly. I know a number of my students/co-workers are coming down with the flu, so I know it's not just there...which isn't comforting :/

Anyway, point is, feel better!

[The Elvenqueen]

Woo, got one out despite having pudding for brains! *cheers* XD It's just that horrible time of year where everybody gets the flu I think, was bound to happen eventually haha (shouldn't have gloated about the flu shot being so effective this year, think I jinxed it pahahaha)

Wanted to give them the option of trying to get some more info out of Renso before they go charging straight to their potential dooms, so feel free to go in either direction with that :P
