Mission Reports

I posted the general layout and maps for the Moon base Copernicus in the Setting folder. Might be significant coming up.
 
Does Cody do anything about his unusual encounter, or should I move on to the battle?
 
That wouldn't have any negative issues to deal with. Go for it. I dare ya.:angel:
 
Judge: Why did you shoot those men?


Cody: They were acting suspicious!


Judge: Really?


Cody: Really!


Judge: Well, you are a PC, so you usually know what you're doing. Okay, you're off the hook!
 
Whelp, it's kinda looking like Cat's gonna be flying a desk once Alexander's done with her record.

Well, she's just dared him to do so. I really don't think she cares at this point. She's just trying to figure out what's wrong with her. Other than the fact that I was kinda not really here for a while and then well, alerts weren't really working for me. So yeah... she's kinda out of it. might be a medical thing.


And she's scared, and worried.
 
@Captain Hesperus I really enjoyed reading your second-to-latest post. This is just excellent: "... his face stony cold, his eyes two chips of obsidian."


And when I read this: "He should be logging the report before anything, but the wording of Cody's message was compelling." Cody immediately popped in my head with, "Yeah, my message probably went something like, 'Hey, get the fuck down here, man. Something's up.'" Ha!


@ehmygirl So, Cat is going to her quarters and not the barracks?
 
Yeah, her argument has gotten her head messed up a bit. She's a bit upset, so she's going to find the only two creatures she knows loves her no matter what.
 
Can't blame her. I think everyone else in the 23rd loves those overgrown puppies too. =)
 
And to be honest, she is both hoping and dreading a medical discharge. She knows she's good- when she's on form and she knows she needs to be here- she just really doesn't want to be. So if she got discharged, she'd feel relief but at the same time... she'd feel as if she were not doing her part.


She's a bit complicated.
 
I think every good soldier and pilot out there would have similar feelings in her position. Complicated, yeah, but Cat's heart's in the right place. =)
 
Well guys, I need some direction here. @ehmygirl, I don't want to target your character, but I want to be fair and have consequences to the actions of the players. Do you want a separate thread for your character at the moon base while the others are on the mission? I can do that, and have you run around and dealing with the upcoming mutiny. I just want to make sure that everyone is enjoying themselves; its important to me as a ST not to make a player miserable.
 
Not only that, but she could, honestly, have a medical condition that would prevent her from going. But if it appears as if she's been banned from going and one of her own number was the cause of it, it could be a great way for her to be approached and investigate this rebellion going on. Dunno how she'd be as a spy, but the PTBs could use her as one if nothing more than to get to the bottom of this.


Don't worry about singling her out, she is fairly sure that his report will go through very quickly. She's not sure if she'd be relieved or not.
 
I was hemming and hawing about what to do 'cause I don't like just telling fellow PC what to do with their character, even if I have IC justification for it, so if there are no objections, I'm going to have Ryan tell Cat to sit this one out so she can recover and/or investigate.
 
I just want whatever makes Ehmygirl happy as a player. I'm not having fun unless we're all having fun. =)
 
That was my worry, too. I don't want to ruin a good time for anyone of my friends here.
 
You guys are sweet. I have it on good authority that Alexander is making the medical report, because he can't just tell her he's worried about her and she doesn't realize that that was his way of saying he's worried about her. Honestly, they so need to learn how to just talk to each other.


Sherwood, she can be given a medical reason why she needs to remain behind. Could be that she's got something funny, not too sure what could still be medically wrong with her. Maybe Captain might have an idea.


But, it ight be fortuitous if she does remain behind, especially if she gets approached by these mutineers... if that is what they really are, which she doesn't quite think they are. She suspects they're masters pretending to be humans... which I think I put down already.


Seriously, it'll be interesting to see what happens if she is grounded during this encounter. I have a feeling that she'll manage to get herself into trouble just fine. :)
 
Cat could be suffering from a number of issues, following her near-death experience. The most obvious is a mild form of PTSD, as well as aversion/phobia, fugues and stress anxiety. Any or all of those can be treated and their effects lessened, but it's confronting the issue and taking charge of it that's going to be the challenge. Cat's become withdrawn from the rest of the squad (more through Alert system 'glitches' than through any intentional work by ehmygirl, I'd bet) which is a hallmark of PTSD. Similarly, sufferers can become confrontational, irrational and suddenly irritable. Vacant pauses can also occur and sufferers can have minutes or hours of no recollection.


If that is what Cat has, then the opportunities for roleplaying will be challenging but, if done correctly, I'll bet they'll be very rewarding.
