[OOC] The Seventh Division: AW2

[Sigil]

Hi, @Palindromatic. Pleasure as always; love your work.

[Lexicon]

It's all good, Palindromatic. Nice post btw. I figure, once we're all onboard with Merle's plan, we'll all gather somewhere and the RP begins in earnest. Adventure!

[DJAtomika]

Gonna work on my post now.

Mayhaps we can decide on a place for the seventh to meet while everyone gets to writing? That way at least everyone's got something in the fire instead of everyone twiddling their thumbs for one guy (me).

@DJAtomika

If @Raptorman is okay with it, we could have everyone meet at Vorian's facility now? We've discussed setting up his base as the headquarters before, so it'd make sense to have that be the main rendez-vous point.

It's all good, Palindromatic. Nice post btw.

@Lexicon

Thanks! I wrote most of it myself!

[DJAtomika]

Where is his facility?

[Lexicon]

It's a secret facility, duh lol. Going to try to get to work on my post later this week and this weekend.

[Palindromatic]

It may be my impatience, but it's getting a little quieter here. If any of you ever leave me, I will literally break the world. No pressure, though.

As a heads-up: I'm returning to university soon, so I may not be quite as active as I am now. In the OOC I will be for sure, but don't expect more colossal IC posts from me. I know, I know, they were a joy to spend several hours reading. My apologies.

Where is his facility?

@DJAtomika

What a fine, handsome question. @Raptorman, care to honor us with Vorians' villa's whereabouts?

[DJAtomika]

I'm still here, still writing.

[Lexicon]

Work is kicking my ass to the point where I've maybe gotten fifteen hours of sleep over the course of about four days. Inspiration is hiding at the moment. I'm going to try to work on something for this thread this weekend.

[YoshiSkittlez]

I'm still here. Not quite sure what to do at the moment though lol

@DJAtomika

But is your writing atomic?

Yes. That was entirely necessary.

@Lexicon

Put sleep before this. Regardless of how award-winning this RP is, sleep is more valuable. I guess work is too, or whatever. Maybe then you'll have some amazing dream you'll draw inspiration from?

@YoshiSkittlez

I'm always around - but I'm pretty much in the same boat. Not really sure where to go.

@McHaggis

If either of you want Merle (or Maria (I know she's not nearly as cool, but she's available)) to swoop in and kickstart some action, let me know. Or if you'd rather skip a Merle/Maria drop-in and dive into an actual story, I like to think I'm good at coming up with ideas and making them work. I don't want you guys to feel stuck, so if there's any way I can get this ball rolling, I will. Just let me know!

Also, I may have mentioned it before (but, really, how am I accountable for remembering what I say?), but if anyone wants to start their own plot - whether it involves the entire Seventh Division, the entire world, or just their character alone (a personal plot, if you will) - by all means, do. I was a part of one RP that ran for years, and I feel it was successful as such because people strayed from the main plot to explore their characters more, or even introduce new elements to keep the entire RP from feeling stagnant. So never feel like you're confined to the main plot. It's only one plotline of many potential ones.

[Raptorman]

The location of Vorian's current facility is in New Hampshire. As for why it is there, well did anyone really expect him to be there? If you answered no then you have it. ;)

[DJAtomika]

Well I already have my story thread with the Mackeys and Merle. Most likely they'll be heading to New Hampshire first, but then having to quell some sort of local troubles while waiting for the rest to arrive or something.

[Palindromatic]

Now I never specifically stated that the aliens - whose name is still being worked on - are flying octopuses who altered their own DNA and became something advanced and non-organic, but they are. And then I find this article...

So, there you go, folks. We're all doomed.

@Raptorman

Smart. Very smart. I like the way you think, Raptor.

Do you plan on having his facility's location known to the public? That could set things up for some interesting encounters later on.

@DJAtomika

If you want, we could have early rumors released to the public that the aliens are returning? This could spark some rioting nearby the Mackey's could handle.

[Raptorman]

I'm not sure how much the public know about it. He withdrew to a lesser known one following the events of the brief war with the aliens but clearly it's location is discoverable since that woman Maria sent Merle there.

[DJAtomika]

She would've passed on information, no doubt.

Anyway, how goes the writing, fellas?

[Lexicon]

I'm going to edit what I wrote for my collab with Palindromatic over the next two days. Then we should be able to keep moving forward on that front.

@Raptorman

Maria and Vorian would have worked together for a few years, so she knows him personally. I like to imagine her as being the ultra-mega-hacker/stalker who can find out anything about anyone easily. Of course, I'll never explain the technicalities of how she manages it, 'cause how hackers do that stuff is way beyond my smarts.

[YoshiSkittlez]

I think Merle would be the only reason Vivek goes back since he thinks so highly of her and has worked with her before. She's gonna have to go to him though...
