If you're wondering what the delay is btw, it's that I'm having a really hard time thinking of any way this could boil down favorably.
To Miyu's perspective, it's like someone just beat her unconscious, then revived her so he could eat her best friend in front of her, "fixed" a problem she didn't have, stalks her, doesn't let her escape, and expects her to like him over it.
She liked Henry despite him also beating her unconscious and then abducting her, partly because he made sense (demon abduct angel, understandable and he's not expecting her to like him over this) and partly because he had charisma. BEAST is just so incredibly alien in thought process and action that both me and Miyu are incredibly confused about how to handle this.
@The 42nd GeckoWell the beating her unconscious part was an accident. I had no idea mantel would link Miyu to her mech in a way that would let her be effected by the virus to the point of physical damage. So that was a work around. As for the stalking her..well...she ran away while he was trying to physically show submissiveness. Not a lot to do but stalk her. Now he has to stop her from killing herself cause that's what his programming and instinct tells him to do; Protect. "Fixing" the vision was optional as I offered to remove that little feature or save it for later. Optical enhancement is included in parts of Beast's CS from the beginning after all. In spite of the seemingly hostile behavior, Beast is just following its programming. It defended itself from machina attack (Daimyo's touching) was activated, (Miyu touching) Fueled up, (consuming Daimyo) and imprinted on its host. (#unconsciousgirlscantsayno)
From the get go, Beast is a creature bred for destruction, combat, and the ultimate defense. Something of that nature isn't going to walk up and say "Hi, wanna be my friend and master?" Plus constructing him as having some kind of terminal or screen with a "Would you like to link with this murder machine of death?" button doesn't always hit very well with the hosts unless they have generally evil intent, which isn't a preferable host type. So the only way I could figure the process to go is like this, a totally random encounter that ends the host up linked to a creature by accident that grows on them through acts of defense and loyalty in-spite of seeming like a threat initially. But he's not perfect as I've not had many roleplays to throw him into. So I'm always open to suggestions of how to better assimilate him into roleplays.
If you would like to work together in a PM or talk here of a better way to integrate and link him to your character, I'm open for discussion.
