No this will not last me the whole month, but it'll do for now
For so many reasons but right now 'exciting skies'
It reminds me of when Tayrey made friends with Gaeta from BSG and they were both quietly reflecting on the vast cultural differences in telling your pilots 'safe skies' vs 'good hunting'
XDDD It was inevitable he can only follow politeness before he starts making up his own and he knows her XD
She will not mind that at all
it is a good farewell!
Also I keep finding there are things she is describing that have Japanese words for them but they are from after his time lol
ikr?
Story of my life. I can CHEAT now and then with his fanboy chuuni weirdness (see: Godzilla) but
If we had a Sasuke we could pull it off
Ari: Tradeline seniority system is super complicated, you won't get it
Sasuke: no, I get it, Lowell's your senpai
Oh wait I think I forgot to leave in the TLDR explanation when I was editing
ahhhh
yes
Not exact but far more relatable for Japanese characters than Americans!
I did just straight cheat when it came to someone explaining underclassmen to him because he knows (and lived) the Confucian system it was founded on so :V
I mean Mai could have told him things offscreen
Ah now I remember that time when he was explaining Japanese business karaoke culture to him and she's just all 'no that is excessive Company loyalty, we wouldn't'
Also the whole private person / public face with social obligations distinction, which Nobunaga himself did not have!
yup
Nobunaga's just like "honestly as long as they aren't all Hideyoshi about it, it's probably progress??? Yeah...."
Just imagining Hideyoshi as number 2 to the CEO of a company and all
I WILL LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOUUUUU
amazing
Also Nobunaga being more progressive than these Companies with space colonies. Miri Carrington would make space Hideyoshi her head of security.
Not a Director because the Company Families would kick up too much fuss
Ari all no no anyone can do anything, Company daughters can be spacers! No Citizen Kittredge Carrington Tayrey that does not prove what you think it does
also I am resisting the urge to have her infodump about assorted naming customs because she would not. But
alert I want to ramble about Kishar here
Actually I'm going to move it to a fresh plurk so I can find it again
Meanwhile Nobunaga "I made him royalty BECAUSE they kicked up a fuss
"
He keeps getting all "VIVA LA IMP REVOLUTION" and i'm like sir no. No.
please do not give Lute evidence of the imaginary Hell uprising she always suspects will happen if there is not enough killing
The Company families were even worried about Ari trying to take over, let alone some random outsider. When Miri dies there will be succession chaos
Hey hey "angel stfu" says Nobunaga. "This is OUR fight. Don't get involved. It's about making Hell better
GO AWAY"
"No duh" re Mimi says Nobunaga.
IkeSen Nobunaga doesn't even want kids so that never happens and takes the whole articles about his kid fighting Hideyoshi and co. as concrete proof he is super dupes correct
Ari is going to avoid internet stuff because I OOC am not really into fourthwalling/duplicate versions of people/existential issues stuff (your tag is fine! just that part not something I want to explore too much IC) and IC ari 'not reading it if I don;t have to pay;' is a good excuse to avoid - but yes Nobunaga is 100% correct lol
sure
Lute does not care if imps and higher ranking demons kill each other, go have fun
Nobunaga; yeah that's right
Just sit and watch and enjoy the show
You know she would. With popcorn
Adam is such a bad influence
Also I find it hilarious that Ari probably doesn't believe in evolution
Travel across the sector faster than light can, grow coffee on moons, but ew no we are nothing like animals
She'd probably find it easier to believe a god created everyone lol. Here anyway.
As Nobunaga's just like "you're genetically engineered though...."
Ari: yes, my genetic modifications were deliberately made by an intelligent being
Not even Miri Carrington could turn a monkey fetus human
Cardalek really ties itself in knots with asserting that the genemodded kids are capable of great excellence and could transform the future - oh but they mustn't possibly think they're better than everyone else, we're not doing eugenics, that's bad
Also re: Nobunaga using Latin swears I'm now imagining him quoting Catullus 16 lol (warning: anyone who tries to look this up, it is very nsfw
)
He actually outdoes it >>
Never get him truly distressed
Basically if he feels cornered
He MIGHT with Lute /cracks neck/ if he was protecting imps from her IRONICALLY but uh...
I' pretty sure NOTHING with Ari would make him go full Demon King like that
His favorite part though would just be the commentary. Like "
Yeah see? NOTHING a general says is private"
Yeah I think even if Ari turned on him he's more likely to feel sad/betrayed than totally lose his temper. Losing his temper would be more if Ari did some avoidably stupid thing but it'd be that kind of protective/worried anger I think
Lute - yeah. I did say if they were in a game together it'd probably go negative because of her taking all the demonic stuff at face value.
I am up for them interacting though! Just give me an OOC heads up if there's like... sudden escalation and Lute will probably either fly away or it'll be fight time
Lute IC will not care how insulting he is but I am twitchy about sudden negative CR for previous game reasons. :/ notes in her journal but if she's massacring imps or something that's definitely fair provocation even if they never met before
Yes
I mean he's just straight up avoiding scaring angels that trigger his "ASSASSINATE FIRST" instincts so
+ Michael would probably save her and/or SADFAIS at Nobunaga and he can't be like "JUST LET THEM STAB YOU WITH TOOTHPICKS" and then you know... get mad at angels so
Lute like pfft I don't need Michael to save me I'll just destroy this so-called demon king
Michael puts them both in time out before any serious stabbing happens
Also! Ari may not have appreciated but I found the lego Bible site hilarious and spent far too long on it
Nobunaga like "But what if I die, come back, and ANNOY YOU MORE"
AND YES!!!! I love the Brick Testament. It's the best. Baby Samson
I love that the first page I linked there, you also have to remember from the law that crayfish/lobsters are banned
so very evil. Like wearing clothes with mixed fibres
Also Lute: then I kill you AGAIN
(she may need to think that through)
Yes
Nobunaga would enjoy this hell struggle and tell her about reincarnation and just be like "Ahhh I see you too are a Demon King MY PEOPLE (evilsimirk)"
*
God though I just
yes
It is so good. The angel with the incomprehensible name
The only baby that makes baby Nobunaga look hinged
New event: Ari looks at this weird night/day cycle and for once is glad she is not currently employed as an astrogator
Also I remember when this first came out and my very Catholic mother told me not to play it because 'kickass angels' was inappropriate.
Other banned phrases included "may the Force be with you" because it was "mocking the priest"
yikes no wonder you're not Catholic anymore
Lute just got a belated tfln tag - from an Adam!
I don't know the player but we will see how it goes! If they keep tagging and we click I will definitely invite to
lol
The Adams I know are firstmanbabe, ogd and originaldick
I think ogd is the only one I’ve seen tagging around lately though
ogd is the one who tagged her!
The other I know is divinebrah
Hell yes, the holy quartet of dicks lmao
Nice! I don't usually play canon characters so I am not used to the delight of unexpected canonmate tags lol
I have only seen one other Lute and its because they are dangertits which was my first choice username. Too late!
I missed one and I am disgusted with myself. Trent has an Adam journal at bitchimblessed
That is another excellent choice!
Ari's sector: humans are rational and evolved and we expect the best of everyone
Also Ari's sector: how could humans possibly share bedrooms without orgies or murders happening?
Husk asking Lute about the drinks is brilliant. Especially as it's over text so she's all like - is it that guy? It could be that guy.
The clerical errors throw her off so much because she wants to be all 'your placement is infallible, you're good or sinful, that's how it is' but here it is obviously not
(also on my dream CR list: Sir Pentious. Totally mess with Lute's head, also get Ari asking for all the military stories lol)
Fly around, shoot zombies in the head from above = perfect plan according to Ari
Nobunaga: Tayrey is so SWEET and CUTE!
Tayrey: point blank shoots a sheep imp
