I play the most emotionally competent characters in all of Basara, I agree. And I will take all of your offerings and run with them, forever, if you want to try a thing just throw me a PM, I think Tsuruhime and Magoichi would be ten kinds of adorable, maybe a meme somewhere
-- how many altairs is a templar supposed to put up with Though I laughed when I checked my e-mail and had notifs from both Actual Urban Fantasy Heroine AND Angry Wikipedia Editor Altair. Afternoon improved greatly.
AHA yes sorry I did run off into derailing territory a bit. I am Basara'd at the moment. But also AssCreed'd! I think if you have your canon points worked out we could probably just roll right into a post, starting just pre-battle as they all glower at each other for varying reasons.
also here, you can both have this icon, which is clearly the best icon.
JUST TELL US THAT EITHER OF THOSE NAMES ARE INACCURATE. THAT'S RIGHT, YOU CAN'T.
Sigh that was not his finest hour. Altaïr's, I mean. It was pretty good for Robert.
I think my only question left is 1) have they already met 2) what did they learn about each other if so (let's face it that mostly goes for what Robert learned about them) and 3) who gets the most glares, Maria for having atrocious taste or Altaïr for stealing his steward?
It's always a note of a good game when the first 20 minutes makes me laugh because someone got smacked in the face. (see also: why ac3 made me start dragging cross through every musebox i have)
I'd say 1) probably yes, insofar that someone told them to nut up and shut up about their petty angry squabbles 2) I'll leave that up to you guys though if Robert knew the two of them were involved and both Assasins it would push things along quicker, I think and 3) both. They both get the most glares. Though Altair gets the burden of his animosity because you take his life AND his best soldier? Unforgivable.
IM GETTING CONFUSED BECAUSE WE HAVE THE SAME ICONS jai why are you doing this to my poor brain
anyway. In that case I propose that they've met, had one blistering argument-turned-fight then been sent to various naughty corners by the Gandalf Expy, been dragged OUT of those corners when a battle starts and 'what are you doing over there come kill orcs' after which there's a tentative and highly sullen truce punctuated by occasional snide encounters in the mess hall bc nothing's actually been sorted beyond "i killed you" "it didn't stick"/"i'm an assassin" "you're fucking fired is what you are" but after that initial attack it's been pretty quiet and they're getting really good at being ships passing in the night-
AND WHERE WE AGAIN ENCOUNTER OUR ERSTWHILE HEROES, THE FORCES OF EVIL HAVE INFILTRATED THE FIRST RING AND CORRUPTED A DISTRICT OF CIVILIANS AND GUARDS whilst all three were in that district on leave or sth so they had to band together to survive the Mordor Zombie Attack and here we are. They're all tired and probably more than a little bloody and everything's only just stopped being on fire and screaming.
I like all of this but have (possibly) one final question: does Robert realize that in addition to bring a turncoat, Maria is doing the do with his killer? Because I feel like that could be funny if he hasn't but I don't want to dumb him down if he would grok that.
also I've been playing a lot of Dragon Age lately and I'm totally seeing them fighting Darkspawn and Maria earning and losing approval points through conversation.
This all works for me too and actually I'm not sure if he'd assume that right off the bat - he'd probably initially assume that she just fell under the sway of Assassin lies and falsehoods and her allegiances shifted, not that they're Actually Involved. If that came up right after they get done running like hell it'd probably be all kinds of hilarious. I.E., one of them gets close to the other to check on injuries and it's a moment of tenderness and he takes one look and goes OH HELL NO or something similar.
That thought amuses me. Asscreed could actually stand to gain something through an approval system honestly.
Gotta find the right gifts for your party members, Maria.
Like Altaïr's head on a silver platter-- no anyway where are we setting this psl up because as long as you both promise we can do the above scene i've got no further questions.
NO WAIT I DO. THE QUESTIONIS what timezone are you in, Lex.
I assumed we'd stick it here since we did the plotting here but if someone wants to host I have no objection! As long as they provide cookies to the guest.
I technically have a musebox but we're already here and I'm lazy.
What are we calling GMT nowadays? UTC? That. Which leads nicely into me obeying Jaina and going to bed because it's 1:45AM and I can't feel my hands. If you guys have time and get the thread/post up tonight I'll tag it tomorrow but feel free to godmode Altair for set-up purposes :>
IN THAT CASE who's pro on starting? I can get something up tomorrow when I wake up (still have some work to do tonight) if you guys'd like me to start it up; otherwise I too can tag in when I wake up.
(sorry for that really long delay there. again work. i procrastinated for too long today.)
I'm coming down from a bathroom cleaning fumes high for a bit before bed, but I can pop an all-purpose IC post for these shenanigans and whoever brings a flag over first can claim it for England.
hi yes it's been a week and i still haven't tagged that please accept templar apologies. I wound up with more work than I expected last week and this weekend, BUT I should have nothing for another week most likely, so I'll get a tag into this so we can get it rolling. Are we all still cool with them just fresh off running from the first wave of invaders and getting ready to set up a defense?
yes totally one should come up eventually i will keep a close eye on bakerstreet. I HAVEN'T. do you have links to where I can watch it because if so I am all over that.
