Welp, sleeping on it, I now know of a better way to handle Bailey. Too bad it would totally be Hui's thing to overthing something and take extreme actions against it.

Anyways, SF, I'm pretty sure Hui or Anise's character (if approved) would be happy to make Pokeballs without the loyalty booster, so you should probably ask. Or get Cream to suggest that.

Guys, with the way things are happening IRL currently I have to bow out of the game as well.

If the game was on Tuesday or Wednesday, I could make it, but, ATM, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are nights I can't keep up with. I'd always come in late and leave early on those days, which isn't a good thing for the game.

I'd like to keep Velik as a off screen character, if at all possible, able to do research for the party. But that's up to Weird mostly. It's pretty much one of the few ways I can still contribute even without being able to join in on the games.

Bailey is pretty desperate right now and it's making him a bit mad. It doesn't really help that Pepper is an awful influence on him. I was stalling the capture last night because I can't really trust Bailey to not use the loyalty switch the second his trust in someone dips. He's not really beyond abusing the power of a pokeball, he just hasn't ever had the opportunity to before. So yeah, making sure the one he uses on his sister is loyalty switch free would be a good call, if it comes down to him really having to use a ball on her. There are other options, such as wards. The pokeball is the only solution he can see because he assumes he can't trust anyone to help him and doesn't believe that if he did something to cause someone who can help him to owe him a favor, that they'd follow through on the favor without backstabbing him. There's a reason he's so good at spotting liars and is just looking for lies perpetually. d:


Thing is, though, he's not thinking it through either. His sister is important to him, but K1 can just as easily control him by using his mom and/or dad. Hell, even his grip on Kalas and Talia is enough to force him into doing something questionable. Really the only thing that will help him stand up to K1 is to A) get Pepper fully evolved so he has a metang, B) get his confidence back to the level it used to be, C) unbrainwash him. B and C might prove to be more difficult than A. B has the drug solution, but that's not really a solution so much as a quick fix and one that would be really easy to foil if the drug is taken away or tainted.




I've no problem with Velik being a background character, but how do we remove his commander duties? Last night gave us some really strict restrictions on that sort of thing. Could it be possible that he wasn't really a commander? And that Hector somehow found a way to fake it so he could have a rep on the bridge? Hmmmmm, probably not.




When do we wanna get that extra RP session in, and what do we want our goal in it to be? Not a quest, persay, but character goal. That way when it's done we'll have things cleared and settled enough so that the new characters aren't jumping into a hostile environment. Plus it'll be much harder to balance two new character backstories when two others are flaring up to a possible climax. (In other words Bails and Hui should probably get their shit together quick, or at least get things to a point where it can simmer slowly until their proper game climax like the GM probably had in mind.)

Hui's character goal is to help Bailey, but at the same time stop him from going into that endless cycle of catching everything on sight. She's probably still not thinking too straight, and she has already put her word onto joining the TDD. She will most likelyt start her training with the TDD, with some minor regrets, but well hidden. She PROBABLY wouldn't even think to make Pokeballs without loyalty switches until she is told that that is an option (she hasn't thought about it) or until she calms down enough (which... I don't see happening for a while, due to the dive she just did in the factions)

Yeah, one of Sophia's big things is 'fuck those loyalty switches, if you can't get a pokemon to trust you and want to work with you, you don't deserve it', so maybe this is actually a good time for me to come in V:

If we could switch days I could stay in, but I remember the only other day available being Tuesday, which, IIRC, Taricus can't make. It is an option if anyone wants to keep Velik on Bridge (doubt it matters since there are more people in the wings, but Velik was essentially the voice of reason in the party, everyone else is the heart, Velik was the head)

The computer DID allow for voluntary resignation, though I doubt it could account for peer pressure or any circumstances surrounding such a resignation.

Now, for Hui, that plan she does happens to have a little bit of a problem called Gerald. Needless to say, he was less than amused at what she just did, and given what was also said some else earlier, there's pretty much a high chance of him throwing multiple spanners into it. You can expect him to just about try everything he can to stop Hui actually joining the TDD.

Also, nice character name Anise, just don't start another succession war or trusting your siblings :P

Yeah, to be honest it wouldn't take much, but at the same time, she feels she started this and needs to finish it. So... we've got a trouble of morals going on.
