[OOC] Paranormal Activities [SporkoBug and Calle]

[SporkoBug]

Imma just say this now, mr. Johnson is a cunt.
And I love that.

I had the idea of instead of trying to kill Gaia, mr. Johnson is tasked by the proper people who made her to capture her so they can continue tests. And if he succeeds in doing so without harming her; he gets a large payout.

Were we thinking of having Benjamin and Steph stay in contact after the time skip? Cause I kind of had the idea that she just tries to hide away after all the shit happens, keeping in contact with no one but April as she tries to fix herself and get used to things.
Then maybe Benjamin could either end up running into her or going out specifically to look for her; maybe he rummaged through some stuff and found something that reminded him of her and was like "shit my potential girlfriend"

Maybe Benjamin could keep in contact with Harriet? Especially if he wants to learn about Unknowns a little more after the whole debacle?

[Loksfjoer]

So Ethan won't get the job to try and kill Gaia then. But capturing her and doing experiments on her, that is something mr. Johnson can do very well. And he'll be interested in the pay-out too. So yes, let's do that.

I think it would make the best story if Steph and Benjamin are not in touch during the time skip. Maybe Benjamin wanted to, but he couldn't reach her, because she lost her phone or something and when she gets a new one she only has Aprils number in it.
And then they run into each other.

It would definitely be in character for Benjamin to try and stay in touch with everyone, including Harriet.

[SporkoBug]

That sounds like a good plan~

I feel like Steph would love to stay in contact, but her anxiety and everything would make her keep away from everyone after everything happened.
She'd feel shit for it because she genuinely loves Ben but she's worried that she's dangerous and doesn't want to hurt him.

[SporkoBug]

Tada APRIL HAS A PARTNER.
I have been mulling it over and now I have figured out who he is uwu

Also I wanted to mention that the Whispers are like a force of spirits and ghosts that are all trapped together in one spirital... beast.
That's why the figure only hears unhearable whispers because they're all just talking at the same time uwu
I kinda liked the idea of Mr. Johnson maybe being possessed by at least some of those ghosts and that's why he goes even more... Power Hungry than he is now, which could be that final push to cause this shit.

[Loksfjoer]

Nice :)

It's not needed to possess mr. Johnson for the final push, he's perfectly capable to cause of all the shit that will happen by himself. It's a nice idea, but I'd rather have mr. Johnson to be the bad guy because he is, not because of an external factor. Of course he thinks he's doing good and he will do whatever it takes and use whatever weapon he can find to keep humanity safe from monsters, which is what makes him dangerous.

But... talking about trapped ghosts gave me another idea for a mission, which may not end well for your character, so we definitely don't have to do this.
One of Benjamins life missions is to help ghosts move on to the afterlife. It started when he came across a wandering spirit, who had remained on earth so long that it existed with no goal, just going around in the same circle over and over again and not showing any sign of noticing anything of what happened around it. That's when he decided he would help spirits move on, so they wouldn't end up like that.
And he resents the idea of spirits being trapped by something and therefore unable to move on. If he learns about that he'll want to try to free them.

[SporkoBug]

That's fair <3
I thought I'd put the idea up anyway.

But that works!
Harriet would probably be able to help with.. Uh... Handling the host as well; as her newly unlocked powers will come in handy for that sort of shit.

This is why I like roleplaying with you, we're good at bouncing ideas against each other <3

[Loksfjoer]

I love bouncing ideas with you <3 You always have interesting ideas for the RP's.

How would Benjamin discover the spirits within the vessel though?
An aura? Or does he see parts of spirits emerge at the surface of the vessel and go back inside continuously? Or is Harriet able to sense such things?
Mike can help too, I'm sure he can read up on some kind of ritual that will calm spirits.

[SporkoBug]

Harriet can sense things, and Benjamin would be able to see the Aura/Spiritual Mass when they talk to the Vessel, which is almost always ahah.

And yes, Let's bring Mike into this too, I love him. I will protect that baby.
I also have the perfect vampire Lady to save him when he becomes a Vampire uwu
But I was thinking, How will his girlfriend feel?

[Loksfjoer]

Yeah, about his girlfriend. Do you sometimes have a character that you want to use, but you just don't see them? Mike's girlfriend is one of those.

In the stories where I use him I gave him his girlfriend and several years of happiness, but I just couldn't picture how they would grow old together while I had no issues with picturing any of his friends as old couples. It was as if she wasn't part of that part of the story. So I wrote about her death and it fits with the story.

When it comes to this RP, I know Mike has a girlfriend, but I can't see her in the RP, I don't know what she's doing or what role she will play. I was thinking that if she won't be a part of the RP after the vampire-thing, she may not be around at that time.
And then my mind went: what if a demon killed her during the time-skip, towards the end, and Mike went after the demon, successfully killing it, only to be attacked by a vampire :o I honestly feel sorry for him, but this is currently the idea I'm playing with.
Mike will need lots of hugs :(

But, I agree with the helping vampire lady.

[SporkoBug]

Oof poor Mike.
But yeah! That could work! And also maybe allows romance for vampire woman heheheh

I already want to hug like.
All of our characters.
Except for mr. Johnson. He can get fucked.

[Loksfjoer]

There is potential for that if you're ready for the mother of all slow-burns. Mike will not easily get over the love of his life, but since vampires do live a long time and time heals all wounds, yeah, it can happen :) (and if they do click, it won't take that long, but we'll see how Mike will react in the RP)

Yeah, no hugs for mr. Johnson, he doesn't deserve them.

[SporkoBug]

Darling I'm always ready for slow-burns in roleplays <3
I love Naturally occurring romances~ But yeah, I just wanted to see if you would be okay with potentially a little bit of vampire romance ;)

But yeah. Mr. Johnson can go fuck himself.

[Loksfjoer]

That has to be one of the most frighting motivational speeches ever XD

But... I think Ethan may have seen that...

[SporkoBug]

Uh oh.
That's not good.

[Loksfjoer]

I'm blaming mr. Johnson for what is happening in the team of the guys, if he wouldn't have planted all the succubus information in Mike's mind none of this would have happened.
Bad mr. Johnson :(

[SporkoBug]

What an asshole. I hate him.
He'll get what he deserves though uwu
Eventually.

[SporkoBug]

Ahhhhhhh
I hate it
I HATE BEING MEAN TO THESE BABIES.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Loksfjoer]

But good times will come again <3
At least Steph and Benjamin are happy, right? For now, at least, let's keep them happy for a bit.

We probably don't need any extra drama, but what if Gaia would be late for (or because her mind is in a haze forgets) hunting vampires with Ethan? Morrison isn't happy about Gaia tagging along, so he'll probably push to leave a little early, giving Gaia very little time to be on time in the first place.

[SporkoBug]

That could work! Especially if Ethan doesn't really care about Gaia at the moment.
Yeah I'd be fine with that.

[Loksfjoer]

Actually... Ethan will be disappointed if she fails to show up for vampire hunting...
