I thought about doing fresh-to-Nautilus V, and then I thought "what about Bad End from the war with Isis?"

Be a trip to stumble out of Bad End only to find even more of his friends are just... gone

http://mo.om
... I think V's been through the Bad End storm before, though.

(One of the other storm effects should line up with that one, though, so it's still possible.)

V could meet a Dragon! And I don't think V's threaded with Nita's new friend post-Pokemon storm yet?

SITS

I AM FOR ALL THE PLOTTING.

how would V feel about running into Deva!Irene? :T (Bad End!V might make for an interesting mix on this one, lawl)

zerimarclassics: Is there anything you would like to do?

Autistic_Ace: ...it's possible, since my memory is bad, but I thiiiink the last Bad End storm we had, he was unaffected, because if he had Bad End in canon he'd just be dead. :|a I know some Kalliste Bad End stuff got played out.... but iirc that was just all in gotosleep. Not meaning to sound argumentative or anything, just thinking aloud!

showsparrow: Deva!Irene would be super interesting, especially to throw Bad End!V at.

help marinette deal with the fact shes a guy lol or let dirk read V's head

...he might want a look at her eyes. Nevermind the discomfort of making eye contact with a Deva; he's see Cyrus' eyes and possibly Isis', I'll need to check before I post things and there was the deal with people under Isis' influence (Ascended included) having her purple in their eyes, and there's discomfort meaning very little to a Guy

pun intended

who has set himself on fire

zerimarclassics: you are a gift. I DEFINITELY want to have V help Marinette deal (even/especially if it's Bad End!V; it would probably be a balm on his soul to step back into playing the
part of an eccentric uncle figure, even if he wouldn't know Marinette for the duration of the storm) but I would also like to hear a bit more regarding your plans for Dirk

dirk can hear thoughts and he is already kinda intimidated by V so he would be extra petrified by V for the storm and so would Marinette

I'm just laughing thinking back to when there was a storm which made people's internal monologues external narration. V just... left for Helix.

Also interesting, interesting! I am going to say for sure Marinette and V (with a little bit of cheek mushing at Marinette being intimidated, poor thing) and that Dirk and V does tempt me

Also I didn't realize Dirk was at all intimidated by V, I thought he just thought he was weird, but fairly tolerable

Also apologies to you and everyone in this plurk (especially Sparrow) I am just not eloquent at all at this hour

And Ace: meeting a dragon would be sweet

he is both for V lol xDD thinks he's cool and weird and "please don't kill me"

That might explain it, yes! I have read lots of threads. |D

Dragoooon~

That just cinches it: we need more Dirk and V CR. Though I'm waffling on contact with psychic!Dirk. Choices, choices!

Ace, you haven't just read a lot of threads, you have been astoundingly thorough

hi

hello thar

SCHWEEEEET. :T And.... hm. Not sure what kind of effect looking into her eyes might have for V, since for all intents and purposes Irene's not a 'real' Deva for this storm. Maybe SLIGHT discomfort but not exactly the full brunt of what you'd feel looking into a real Deva's eyes? :|a

I like the thought of this!

And I'm amused, because this is another ill-advised thing to do but he won't regret it an ounce

LMAO well she won't be surprised when it's all said and done so

she'll just. B[ at him.

But I have a nerdy question for you, Sparrow, because I can't help but be curious; in addition to that discomfort, any secondary effect? There was a sense of drowning with Cyrus, and I can't remember what with Antovil but for Deva of the Dawn...? ofc the gremlin part of my brain suggests you know lyrics you didn't before

i would be sorry but i know you like your horror too

oooooh i've never seen this!!

She can B[ all she likes; he'll probably ask what might be the matter

lmao i'd be fine blending the lyrical bit with.... hm. maybe a sort of tension on the eyes, as if you're looking directly into the sun? minor, but just enough to be uncomfortable

lmao I didn't think you would go for the lyrical bit, I just saw the opportunity to make a bad joke

what have I done

I do recommend it, if you get the chance to see it, though. The friend I went with didn't care much for it, but I enjoyed it; it was in Saskatoon like 7 years ago

:3 it sounds awesome!

although a twist on that could be.... hm. some of the lyrics whispered are in Irene's actual first language because lawl

Same melody, all Irene's language?

post-storm fallout is V surrounded by scores trying to find one that matches, if he can

for the most part, yes! :T

and lmao V

V for Nerd of the Year 2018

I'm going to request a Nerd of the Year trophy two sundays from now, now

He'll display it somewhere in the Shadow Gallery. His Most Eligible Bachelor award from years ago has been on the Gallery's kitchen table as a flower vase since he received it. #themoreyouknow

God, so much nostalgia. Tony Stark signed him up for the Most Eligible Bachelor thing as a joke, and then had to sit there and watch him win it.

XDDDD Wasn't there, like, two rounds of the game? (As in, it was played twice.)

Birdbrain needs to come hang out at the museum, damnit >[

There were three rounds: a question round, a swimwear round (V wore a wetsuit and flippers), and a talent show round where V performed both parts of a scene from Dirty Hands. There miiight have been a second competition but my memory is bad

showsparrow: yes!

yes competition is the word I meant. |D
