Pokemon Umbral Discussion 27: Prepare For Trouble...

[Bard The 5th LW]

Regarding your first point, we don't care enough about your plan for it to create suspense.

Clearly you do care, since you're making a big deal about him telling you. Arguably, your insistence shows that some suspence had been built by your waiting. Just saying. I really don't care if he reveals it or not.

Spectral Reaver?

Like it. If I can't think of anything else before the day is over, I'll probably go with this.

[Dracorion]

Arguably.

I mean, he didn't say he didn't care. He only said he didn't care enough.

[Geminex]

Clearly you do care, since you're making a big deal about him telling you. Arguably, your insistence shows that some suspence had been built by your waiting. Just saying. I really don't care if he reveals it or not.

I'm arguing on principle. It's not much of a practical consideration, I think, it's simply an issue of "I tell you, you tell me". Also, I'm establishing dominance, cause if I let Menarker dance our of line, what next? Anarchy, that's what. Inefficient anarchy.

And besides, our collective attention span is so short, by the next thread we'll probably have forgotten. So even if we care now, we won't care later. Mind you, I will be implementing whatever consequences I see fit, but, again, out of principle.

And Bard, I thought we were bros! Why ain't you supportin' me?

[Bard The 5th LW]

Nausea, probably. Just sat through a 2 hour car ride. Got a point though, who is to say that Menarker ain't really abusing the system and just being stealthy about it?He's tried before, I think. I think it was the reason we had +10 discussion threads for a single mission.

Tell us now Menarker! The resulting discussion of the reveal would fuel more argument and discussion than not revealing it ever would!

[Geminex]

Ah, that sucks. I prefer trains over cars.
Oh, and I got my braces out today. I'm quite pleased, smile looks much more predatory than it used to.

And I'd accuse you of being a cover troll if you weren't so very, very blatant. Still, pretty cool troll. Was Charlotte's dad really a terrorist?

[Bard The 5th LW]

Was Charlotte's dad really a terrorist?

I dunno. Probably in one way or another. Maybe she wasn't actually answering Pierce's questions in order and was just being covert about a compliment?

[Geminex]

How'd she know, though? Gossip with Shizuka? And when's your sidequest? I'll take it we'll learn more about Charlotte's parentage then?

[Dracorion]

We should get off the subject of Pierce's penis.

I get my own NPCs! I could make it canon, you know.

But if Pierce and Charlotte are going to sleep together and that's how she knows about his big penis, it should be between Mission 3 and Pierce's sidequest. Or maybe we could do it retroactively.

[Geminex]

...
Agreed, provided that Liz is also closely related to Pierce. And Sam and Liz are your only two, for now.

[Bard The 5th LW]

I presume that Charlotte's sidequest will be after Impact's and before Matt's. And yeah, I'll go into more detail of Charlotte's horrendously badly written back story. May or may not just make it worse.
