Freak: Amidst the Neon Lights WIP and playtest.... last update July 4th 2019

Add the fact that I’m an ‘out of the closet individual’ and my grocery store is two blocks from the old folks community. FUN wow!
Gotta love those open minded people, they are just ‘wonderful’ heck I get crap from my general hairstyle let alone life choices YAY.

ANYway nuff venting about people from work.

Not so much just error fixes, nothing major was put into story yet.
Am working that tonight. Should have a good chunk up soon.

Sounds like you plan further ahead than I manage. :neutral_face:

Truth of it is I try not to lay down ‘exact’ plans for the course of events. Sometimes I’ll forget what the plan is. I lay down the background and character personalities first and then decide the ‘long game’ The easier method is basically looking further ahead and find ways to get to these planned ‘signposts’ that way the path I take to get there is less mechanical more fluid.

SO long story short the PLAN for the first chapter was:
MAIN GOAL Ch1: introductions

  1. Experience the Lab- childhood
    2.Crash into Alantus Island/city
    3.Wake-up in Sancta Vy
    side goal: establish basic relations with the cast.

everything inbetween was just the characters and their personalities/reactions filling in the space between and tweaking it to be more fun.

Maybe not a date, but more Empathy torment? :smirk:

I dunno. She seemed to like the Space Hamsters story. Might not be torment for a sarcastic!First and Empathy.

…Unless, yannow, she ends up having to teach basic etiquette and common sense to First. I have this image in my head of the White-haired waif getting hit by a car while jaywalking. Cue Empathy facepalming as said car is totalled at the front.

pssh… shopping date, which yeah is probably going to have more opportunities to embarrass her. Like the fact my First doesn’t necessarily need or want cloths because there is no better suit then her birthday suit. Any comments Empathy?

Thanks Empathy

Empathy: Okay, now wait until the light is gre-- FIRST!

First walks across the road and into the path of a speeding car. The car’s front flattens like a pancake and First hasn’t budged a bit from the impact.

Empathy: muttering to herself. this is my new job? Babysitting the hulk?

First isn’t that heavy. He’d go flying even if he wasn’t injured.

It was a funny visual however, even if it did violate the laws of physics. :smirk_cat:

If first plants themselves and braces properly based on the speed of the vehicle its possible that hitting First could cut the car in half. BUT if they’re taken by surprise First would do a ton of damage, but get thrown, kinda like what happens when a car hits a large animal like a moose.

Now I want First to wear a shirt with a Moose on it.

Yup, if First was able to brace himself well enough that he didn’t move, what was left of the car would have to keep moving, conservation of momentum and all… :smiley_cat:

But First is real smart… Well maybe the right world book smart, from all the books… The point is I’m sure First can figure out to use physics to their advantage.
