[OOC] The City of Gems

[Archmage MC]

@Archmage MC
Howlite is basically a camera, so she has got you covered on that part.

@DracoLunaris

Cool, her and Marry will become quick friends then.

Huh, well Sera-hulk ain't too concerned with them at the moment. If they get in the way, well, that's another story.

@Raijinslayer

I don't think Marry will interfere too much either unless Sera goes after gems Marry doesn't hate. though Marry will probably portal those gems to safety. lol

[Raijinslayer]

@Archmage MCYe, She's pretty much focused on the loud one, though if you could keep Tug off her . . well, then you could have the time to study ba Seraphinite fight without having to worry about being a potential target.

@Raijinslayer

Well that might happen. Though she'll also intervene before people get shattered. Its a lot easier to experiment with a live body than a dead one. xD.

MSpaint map v2

so my logic here is that "her shield up to encase all of the Newborns" does include Cymophane, that if seraphinite was to stomp off away from everyone it would be in the opposite direction to the crystal gems and that Marie is between the cg and Tug/Chloe and thus not in Seraph's way so she ain't been pushed. finally aqua and blood are off in the gem temple having a dramatic character moment together.

Everyone who was on the old map but has not posted since then have been deleted.

also the shield is hexagonal and modular so I am not entirely sure if my dome Idea is correct but I am imagining something like this


obviously correct me if you think I am wrong.

[Archmage MC]

Aqua is also there I think. Also Marry is floating near the cavern ceiling. Other than that its pretty much all set.

@DracoLunaris
Thank you!!

@DracoLunaris

Okay, my problem with this is that I wrote that Seraphinite was heading towards the exit(which is where you placed the crystal gems). As such, even though Chloe stopped her, she was still facing the direction, and I'm assuming she was thrown in the direction as well, and in my mind, it wasn't a light toss either(I'm imagining somewhere around where the drone near Cavan is). Also, this places Marnie inside of the dome which begs the question of how large the shield was meant to be, as I assumed it was only put up to create a barrier between Sera and Chloe.

@rocketrobie2Can you explain more about the shape and size of the shield, that Tug made for this occasion, as that seems to be one of the major points of contention here.

[DracoLunaris]

@Raijinslayer

more like this then?

[Akayaofthemoon]

@DracoLunaris

Pppppppsssssstttt!

You forgot Aqua

[Raijinslayer]

@DracoLunarisYe, at least that's how I imagined the scene playing out before the attack.

[Akayaofthemoon]

Aaaannnnnd my computer just took a crap. Oh joy.....

[rocketrobie2]

Map looks good on my end though I think I might have misread some people's posts because I thought we were a lot closer together. As for the shield, I imagine it working and looking almost identical to how @DracoLunaris showed with the Spartan, only difference being Tug's is bigger and having the ability to move the modular panels around.

Though as for the size the map makes it look too big. I meant to have the shield cover all the newborns but, again, I thought everyone was closer together. The max size I imagine the shield being able to go is about the size of the support colum in the map.

@rocketrobie2

Okay, gotcha. That was what I was thinkin' as well when i posted, as you didn't make it sound like a big ol' thing as the map would suggest. So Marnie isn't likely inside the shield, and given positioning, I shouldn't have to redo the post, yeah? (Also, is Sera going to be able to break it, or is she just cracking/weakening it?)

[rocketrobie2]

@Raijinslayer well my thought process on the shield is that they aren't nearly as strong as Steven's sheild bubbles but the perk to it is that Tug can almost instantly move a hexagon from one part of the shield to another, basically filling a hole before anything can get in but from your post I'd say Sera probably would have defiantly broken a hex but getting in might be a little more difficult.

[DracoLunaris]

@Akayaofthemoon oh gog I am so sorry, I don't know how I missed you post and that lovely speech. my apologies.

everyone is now in the correctly sized bubble

and blood stone is eating clouds in the temple.

[Raijinslayer]

@rocketrobie2True, but given that they're keeping a forward momentum and using their li!mbs as the weapon, they'd already havr at least an arm in the way, so it would be able to completely re-seal. Also, given how you said they are separated into individual hexes, does that mean there are gaps? If not, then it'd be hard to imagine one hex easily sliding into pace unless it moves above or below it's brethren oo move, notto mention that this also creates another opening in the shield, if I'm understanding this ability!ity correctly.

[rocketrobie2]

@Raijinslayer yeah that's basically how it works. It seals over really fast or at least tries to and it does end up causing gaps elsewhere in the shield. Also your probably right in that Sera would probably have at least an arm in there though I imagine it'd be somewhat pinned as another Hex tries to seal the hole.

[Raijinslayer]

@rocketrobie2Gotcha. Looks like she's going to have to keep breakin' hexes till the damn thing lets her in.

Edit: Or Brute force her way in by pushing the hex out of the way, which i imagine is possible, right?

[rocketrobie2]

@Raijinslayer Yeah but I think it'd break before moving.

[Raijinslayer]

@rocketrobie2So, should I re-write my post to accomodate for this, or do you want to write up a reaction post for Tug where it's described what happens to Sera upon attempting to break through the shield wall. Also, seeing as how Marnie is inside of the shield(which kinda takes the punch out of her whole gesture of standing between the two sides), I'll have to rewrite my post either way.
