CR MEME

☄ The first textbox is the header! Fill it out first in its own comment and then submit.

☄ Use the second textbox for each character you play and respond to your header comment with it.

☄ Tell us what your characters are doing, what they will be doing, or what you want them to do.

☄ Plot, chat, maybe toss in a good gif.


<b>What's your name?</b> (What you like to be called) <b>Who do you play?</b> (List your characters) <b>Where can you be reached? </b> (PM, AIM, Email, Plurk. And if you put in a plurk, let us know if you are okay with being added.)


<b>Who is this character? </b> (Name they go by, canon, anything) <b>Tell us something about them. </b> (A little bit to let us know what they're like or where they come from.) <b>How long have they been on the Moira? </b> (Roughly.) <b>What have they been doing? </b> (Jobs, new friends, enemies, whatever interesting thing you want.) <b>What do they think of the captains? </b> (How does your character feel about them?) <b>Have they figured out a plan of action? </b> (How are they doing on the Moira? Do they love it? Hate it? Do they have plans to change things? Go with the flow?) <b>Is there something specific your character wants to do?</b> (Keep to themselves. Start an on-ship business? Start a club. Anything.) <b>Got plans for the next month? </b> (Get some CR going. See if something you want to do, someone else wants to do.) <b>What about plans over all? </b> (Long-term plans. Character arcs. Etc.) <b>Specific CR? </b> (If you want something specific CR-wise, list it here. A new friend. Relationships. Enemies.) <b>Anything else?</b> (Extra stuff goes here!)

lkdjsflj I am very torn. Alan would mesh better with the AI issues, but it might be tricky to keep that from feeding back to Rinzler's mess. Maybe start off with Zam and work up from there? (Or both. We can do both.)

[backsassin]

Given Zam's job, they have a better chance of meeting the Mainframe earlier anyway. We can always do stuff with him and Alan further down the line ^^

Though would the Mainframe have any way to interact with someone who can't talk?

[lostsymmetry]

........slkdjfljlj IRONICALLY I totally forgot that difficulty.

In the long run, they'll be fine; he'll be lurking in the cameras and perfectly able to read any text that gets waved or MID'd in his direction. In the short run... there, uh, might be a way. But it'd be about the worst thing ever.

He is in his access terminal. It does have a keyboard. Given how much typing the caretaker was doing, there's gotta be some kind of command line mode (probably what you get if you quit the menu options Arid was looking at), and I'm sure he can parse what gets typed into that even if it isn't an actually valid command. It'd just be the actual most terrifying option possible right after the formatting and you can bet he'd be panicking audibly the whole way.

(I share this idea less because I assume Zam would and more because I want to share the traumatizing mental image with someone. Enjoy~)

[backsassin]

AHAHAHA oh nooooo~ I... kinda want to do that now, ngl xD

Honestly, Zam might try that at first just bc, well... a computer just popped through the Ingress, how else are they gonna communicate with it? But they'd back off if he told them to and then they'd be stuck in no-communication land again :c

...So, if that's not an option, maybe we should hold off on CR between these two until the Mainframe is set up in the cameras?

[lostsymmetry]

slkdjflsjdfk IF YOU WANT we could do a short-thread worth of trauma? I mean, even if Zam leaves him alone as soon as he asks, it'd be a very vivid first impression that she could follow up on when he's properly installed. (He wouldn't have any idea who it was unless she got far enough for introductions but awkward oh that was you later could be a thing.)

[alan_1]

YES, let's do it!

Would the Mainframe actually speak without prompting when he first arrives? Bc if all Zam sees is a silent computer terminal, they might actually try and input valid commands at first. Nothing malicious, of course, but maybe a "login" prompt or something. Possibly enough to freak the Mainframe out a little more than if they just input "hello" :,D

[lostsymmetry]

We could probably swing that either way! He will be speaking right as he comes out of the Ingress (cut-off panicflailing followed by ...??ing for Arid), but when explanations aren't immediately forthcoming, he'll clam up and try to listen.
