Ask me about my tourniquet fetish.
Because of plot reasons Peyton will opt for another mission than the one she initially laid her eyes on.

Ah, I see. I appreciate the clarification then.

Okay, I'm a little confused about something.
Windsock
's post made it seem as if our characters entered the room and met their respective handlers, who then explained the contracts in a one-on-one setting. But
Viper Actual
's post has us sit down for a group briefing, where the three contracts are explained to everyone, after which, we meet our handlers. And then
SkyHawk MK III
's post seems to adhere to Windsock's, but it's kind of ambiguous enough that it could go either way.
So, which is it?
(1) We meet our handlers, who then sit down and talk about the contracts one-on-one, or...
(2) Group briefing presented by all of the handlers, then we break up to meet with them individually and decide which mission we'd like to accept?

I might have fucked up then because that's not how I read it. Oh boy...

I read it as we met our respected handlers and sat down talking about the contracts. Though it's true that my post is ambiguous, sorry about that.

Really good catch! I'm not going to complain majorly about it but viper was having difficulty so I'm sure it was just a harmless brainfart. Let's presume 1, but still not quite fully one on one (some handlers assigned to multiple people and all). The area is open enough that some eavesdropping likely occurred though, so that's probably why it got confusing.

Ok, so Adam is at a table with Hazel and Sarah then. That works for me. I'll get started on the post and have it up today or tomorrow.

I'll deign to make an interruptive post giving more information to Hazel and Adam (through Sarah), then we'll skip
Tanya Degurechaff
as requested, and then
AnonyMouse
will post. Sounds good?

Oh, crap. I forgot you were going to do Sarah's reply first. My bad. I intended to just edit what I'd written and make sure it looks good, so I could hit 'post' once your Sarah post appeared, but... well, I got too excited.
Goddamn they're mean together. Best gang.

Halliwell is a higher form of thot, like one of those vampires that is immune to sunlight, silver, garlic, wooden stakes, holy water, and doesn't even need to drink blood to live. How do you kill that!?
You don't. You just shut the fuck up and do as you're told, Cammy.
j/k j/k
But, all jokes aside, she's not that mean to other people. She just realized that was the best way to deal with Cammy; match her blow for blow, establish dominance, then ease into being the 'nice handler' later on, hahaha. That's how she is; once she figures out how someone thinks, she goes after those psychological pressure points. Cammy likes to make crude jokes and tease people, so all Halliwell had to do was show a little cleavage, make a short joke to lure Cammy into making boob jokes in retalliation, and then KAPOW!! shut that shit down like a boss. That's the aspect of her character I was trying to display.
Now, the big question is, how well will that hold up when I'm not controlling both characters? I'll need to bring my a-game. Maybe I'll go study some thots for, umm, research... yeah, 'research.'

On the side, looks like the loop is done. Looks like one shorter loop for a bit more in-universe information, then we'll finally be in business. Hope that sounds good to everyone? We can skip the informational details and just provide them OOC or a little summary/blurb IC as an intermission, so we can actually get straight to business. I'm fine with either myself. Gotta pace bruh

Oh! Letting everyone know I'm editing in more information and cleaning up my GM character posts in the CS thread; please watch the space and ask for more information on things as they come to you. Gimme an excuse to actually get off my lazy butt, would you?
oh, another thing. I'm putting in everyone's ideas they gave me about ruling companies and nations and all that; so if I write something about them that just doesn't seem right, please notify me and I'll redo anything.

Am I supposed to write something now after your 'interruptive' IC post.

It's a word! I say it is, so it's true.
Anyway, that's your call. I'd reckon 'no', this little loop is just for tidying up if requested by
Viper Actual
or
YsFanatic
or
SkyHawk MK III
or
AnonyMouse
or what-have-you. If they tell me 'nah fam let's just skip and fight already holy shit', that's what we'll do.

I wouldn't mind getting the info Sarah has on other Linkers. I'm off from work tomorrow so I have time for another post if my turn comes up then. However, if everyone else wants to get going I'm fine with that as well as I would also like to start shooting things.

Nah, fam, let's interact a bit because I don't know who any of these people are, even though they've been living and working together for over a week. There has been surprisingly little PC-to-PC character interaction thus far. Things have mostly been PC-to-NPC or our characters responding to plot stuff (like choosing an NC, settling into their new home, etc, etc)....this little loop is just for tidying up if requested by
Also, when the skip does happen, will we be skipping straight to the action (i.e. in the cockpit, on the battlefield, ready to rock) or will there be some time pre-launch to talk things out and figure out who's doing what, who is armed with what, formulate some semblance of a strategy, etc, etc?
