CR/Plotting/Handwaving Meme

[rubycitymods]

Time for another of these! You all know what to do by now, and we all love some good CR, don't we? You can either ask for/offer CR you'd like to play out... Or you can discuss what may or may not already have happened!

INSTRUCTIONS

♥ Post with your characters, one per comment or a catch-all. If you have any CR in particular you'd like to rally, mention it here!

♣ Go around to other characters and discuss ways your characters may have interacted in handwaved settings. This could be casual meetings at the pub, patrols they may have gone on together, hikes and explorations, or just whatever strikes your fancy!

♦ Come up with some backstory for friendships that might not have gotten played out as fully as you'd have liked. These guys are trapped on a floating island together, 24/7... You know they bump into each other! New CR is highly encouraged - you never know what might happen.

♠ Have fun!

<b>PLAYER:</b> <b>CHARACTER(S):</b> <b>CURRENTLY:</b> (What are they up to? It may help others to know where your character usually hangs out or what they're spending their time doing.) <b>CR YOU'D LIKE:</b> <b>CR YOU WOULD <u>NOT</u> LIKE:</b> <b>ANYTHING ELSE?</b>

Ok, so argument over what? How physical are we talking? The problem with anything that steps over that thin line into violence is he doesn't really know when/how to stop if she's encouraged his rage like that - if she tries to make it out that there isn't any point in killing her he'd likely leave her beaten and bleeding just to make the point.

This would be better before the Sending/L'Cie-crystal thing I think...

Most likely, an argument over how illogical it would be not to keep putting their heads together and working towards the common goal of figuring out how to get out of here. I got that impression that he would be willing to work with her still, out of sheer reasonable logic, and Jane refusing to do that anymore would seem illogical to him.

As for the violence, if it is going to be that intense, maybe we should just keep the argument over the network and to just words. Possibly an accidental post?

[neverbeamemory]

It might seem illogical to him indeed, especially since she clearly knows more than he does and he deserves to know it all!

As to whether he'd argue about it verbally...not so much? I see it only going so far before he makes a mental note/turns off to her. Of course that won't stop him from going after what he wants (ie. any info she might have that he wants) but there are other ways to achieve this end....

Such as compromising/inflicting misery on others in the City that she cares about, so that she -will- cooperate?

But we could have a short disagreement that ends up being accidentally leaked perhaps?

[bifroster]

Oh, that would be brilliant. I personally love blackmail plots, and that does seem like something he would do. And of course, because it has to do with friends and loved ones, she will bend pretty easily.

Having it and/or the minor disagreement leak out onto the network would be awesome! That is a wonderful idea!

[neverbeamemory]

After all, he knows more now that she is tight with Regulus and that could easily be used against her. Maybe we should set some things up for him to learn of others' that are vulnerable, that she knows -- more leverage?

I saw that Jane has put her foot forward some with regards to maybe!approaching Sephiroth again - am I right in thinking this might be the best stage for that disagreement we might want....which could be accidentally leaked onto the network...and then cut off at the peak....

...and Jane could actually be fine? (If a little fuming cos what-is-dealing with Sephiroth?)

[bifroster]

Yes, Regulus could certainly be used against her, or the threat that he might be hurt. Technically, anyone she is close to or friends with could be used as leverage against her (and there are a lot of them), no matter if they are weak or not, because she would protest greatly at the thought of her actions or in-actions putting them in danger. She knows more about what he is capable and really would not want to risk that if she could help it.

But yes, she has been considering that, because he is intelligent, and since she is not wholly on bad terms with him, she will try to use that, especially in recent developments with Tifa's kidnapping. We could use that as a launch pad!

And yes, how does one deal or make a deal with Sephiroth? He's worse than Mr. Gold on a bad day.

[neverbeamemory]

Hahah she's a little like Tifa/Yuna except....not so gung-ho as a Final Fantasy girl would be??

That sounds like a go then! We could do the usual private-call then Action thread then when we get to the part of the argument we want leaked, maybe AIM it out first for leaking purposes? Idek how you'd like to tackle it!

I know we need to get to an end of that last Library thread soon as well! Damn they could talk about theories forever!

Making a deal with Sephiroth? Is like trading parts of your soul. For many it results in losing humanity completely LOL.

[bifroster]

Jane could be a FF girl... she gets into enough trouble anyways!

But that sounds like a good thing; this is totally repetitive, but I pinged you in plurk about Steve being a silent witness to this since he doesn't like the idea of Jane talking to Sephiroth alone. You know, since he be crazy. Since he'll be silent, we could still AIM it out without anything else being affected.

They really could... We could handwave it if you want to drop it?

XDDD
