[OOC] Of Science and Magic

[Riven Wight]

Hey, as long as you end up catching up in the end! Heh. We just need to be in the same time when they meet.

Hmm. Would you be okay with saying that pausing time would have been extremely difficult to do, and taken a good amount of preparation for his grandfather to accomplish?

I can’t remember what all we established about werewolves. Besides that it’s unknown if they’re creatures of magic or science, and even thought to not be of magic, science, or even neutral in some cases, but some mix between the three that makes them unstable and thus capable of turning into wolves, or even having a couple magic-based abilities. But they wouldn’t be capable of being an actual Mage as well as a werewolf. Unless we didn’t actually establish that, and that was just something mulling around my brain.

Okay. The original first time skip posts were planned something like this, since you wanted to add more of Byrce’s backstory and what happened between our ‘then’ and ‘now:’

Me: Present day intro for Thea
You: Past intro for Byrce, less of a time-lapse at start.
Me: Present day continuation, leading toward Thea’s escape.
You: Finishing up past info and going into where Byrce is at in the present.
Me: Thea gets out. Set up for meet-up (based on your last post) between Thea and Byrce.
You: Whatever you decided to do with that set up!

How it’s going at the moment, is looking more like this:

Me: Present day intro.
You: Past intro, less of a time-lapse.
Me: Present day continuation, leading toward Thea’s escape.
You: Past continuation.
Me: Final present day continuation leading up to Thea’s escape. Currently where we’re at.
You: Whatever you decide to do next! It would be great if you could get him into the present day by the end of this post, but if not and you feel like going longer with individual posts, that's okay too. I would just need to know the general area that Byrce could be found in to know where she needs to be for them to meet.
Me: She’s getting out this post. Further delays in the dungeon would really only result in her recapture at this point. Any meet-up set up here will depend on your previous post. If you do not get him into the present (thirteen months after the ambush, ten-ish months from where you’re at, I believe), I'm sure I can figure something out to stall with Thea.

Did that help clarify it better for you, and are you okay with all of it?

Oh, and I had like half of my next IC post already written, so expect that here probably my version of later tonight. xD

[Arista]

Sorry for the wait! Mini vacation happened, I'll be back by tomorrow and will get right on my post ^^

[Riven Wight]

No worries! Enjoy your vacation, especially if it is just a short one! I'm going to be going out of town here next week, but will have internet access, so am not sure yet if it will affect my posting or not. Just for a heads-up!

[Arista]

Thanks for the hwads-up ^^ I'll have a post for you soon

[Riven Wight]

Oy vey. The last month got crazy for me. Like, "pull your hair out while screaming at the ceiling" crazy, at some points, there. xD

So, hello! I hope you've had a better, less insane month than I have!

[Arista]

I've had better to be honest xD first my mini-vacation happenes then my birthday and then just a boat ton of other stuff. I'm glad school starts up todsy for my younger cousins cause while I loce tbem, there's only so much hypernesss I can take before wantingto hide away for a bit xD

I'll have a post for you soon I swear, I'm lime the worst partner ever x3

[Riven Wight]

Pfft, please. Far from it. I disappeared on you just as much as you vanished on me! I totally get it. Sounds like we have both had an insanity-inducing summer. Take your time. I understand having to take a while to recover, especially after spending a while with hyper people! Even worse if they are grade school hyper people, depending on your cousins' age. xD

[Arista]

One's 15 and the other is 10 so its a hassel sometimes xD

I also wanted to mention that Byrce's grandfather is a Mage instead of a Were, is thats okay I mean. It just really popped into my hwad and that's why my post reflected it, if i need to chanfe anything let me know ^^

Fall is soon and that means more time to post :3 ^_^b

[Riven Wight]

Fifteen-year-olds I personally can usually tolerate, but I feel for you with the ten-year-old! Do you have them with you often?

Yeah, of course that's okay! With the last bit there, do you mean your previous post? You don't have to change anything if you don't want to, I'd say, but you're welcome to if you feel so inclined. Just let me know if you do, and I'll go read the chances! I don't think there was really an opportunity to add that somewhere, though, was there? I'd have to go back and re-read it. It's been a while. Anyway, you could just add it in your next post instead of editing, but whatever you would prefer!

Mmm. Fall. ^.^ My favorite season, hands down.

[Arista]

We all live in a single house for now -my mom and I jave a plan to move to another state- and its always hectic xD

Yay Fall!! I can't wait! ^_^

[Riven Wight]

O.O Yeah, I can see how that would drive someone a bit batty, having a lot of people under one roof.

This.

[Arista]

Its five people(my two couwins, aunt, uncle and me and mom) plus 3 dogs(ages 6,5,4) a bunny and bird x3 its mayhem lol

Is it bad that I whole-heartedly agree and that I laughed really hard at this? xD

[Riven Wight]

Phew! Sounds extremely hectic. But aww, bunny!

Not bad at all. Means we're on the same boat! :-D

[Arista]

I am the worst and I feel horrible and uggggh!!

Time to sit and type and ignore everyone aeound me x.x

[Arista]

Hopefully this post is okay, I sat down and began typing and next thing I know I created this x3

Let me know if I should change anything, I skimmed this so I might have missed something x,x

[Riven Wight]

Don't you love it when that happens? But now it'll be my turn to make you wait.

Quick question: You ended your post with Byrce going into one of those uncontrolled attack modes. I apologize if it's already been discussed and I've forgotten, but how long will that last for him? I was going to have Zane come after Byrce after stumbling on Thea, so want to know what kind of details it would involve if he finds Byrce just after his episode. If that sounds okay by you, anyway, and you didn't have anything else in mind!

[Arista]

I do, it can produce good results ^^ And no worries on making me wait, I kept you waiting for a long while.

We haven't discussed it so no worries, in my hear these attack modes can last between a few minutes or up to an hour. If Zane finds Bryce right after one thr poor prince will be weak and healing from injuries that his attack self-inflicted. Though he'll make an effort to follow the pup and maybe his own pack of four will follow as well x3

[Riven Wight]

:-)

Alrighty! Would you be okay with it lasting a little on the shorter side this time around? Since the sun was coming up. After a year+ underground, I figure Thea and sunlight wouldn't get along that first day or so, what with the majority of light she's had being firelight. xD

[Arista]

^>^

Sure! I'm okay with that, if the attack is shorter it won't cause so much damage to Bryce as well so that's a plus in a way x3

[Riven Wight]

Thought I'd let you know that I have probably half my post written. Heh.

Also, a thought occurred to me. Do you maybe want to have Byrce encounter (and attack) Thea while in that rage of his, and have Zane come to the rescue, fending him off just long enough for the episode to subside? I'm thinking his fangs wouldn't be capable of easily piercing the armored parts of her body, so that would also help in that case, if it came to it. Or would you rather stick with Zane coming to him after the rage and leading him to Thea?
