Thanks, Marble. I think I'm about 2/3 of the way through but I'm thinking about including some from Centra's POV since Avalon is still out of action. Let me know if you would like to work together on that. If not I'll just keep going.

Can I just say I really liked your chapter/installment a lot? It was really good.

Thank you! I was worried there wasn't enough progress so this is great to hear. :) I really like the nut and bolt screw thing you gave Alex. In fact I was going to put it in my post as well but I totally forgot. *facepalm*

Ehem so. I showed and idea to @Judas and he suggested I shared it with you guys.


so I have this idea, either the thief has one partner or two. Kiara will have to have someone else take her place in the bar, and a girl who happens to overhear that offers to take her place--

1. maybe that Pigeon person is the brass crown's accomplice (hereafter known as BC) and she was doing some spy work to see if anyone is on their track BUT maybe Marble has other plans for Pigeon so..

2. Pigeon and BC have a third partner in crime who does the above, maybe s/h/they happen to befriend Kiara before that
I'm also thinking maybe Kiara would suspect something and tell Servio (because that offer to cover for her was *too* convenient) but then Pigeon/whoever fakes their death to make the others think that BC is on their trail or something



So, what do you guys think? Especially you, @MarbleToast, since you might have other things in store for Pigeon..

hmmmmmmmmmmm, maybe there could be one person in each factory, and a third one on the lookout for people who might be out for them? if the BC wants a regular supply of the brass s/he needs to make his devices, BC's better off convincing someone else (who works in the other factory) to also help BC out with brass-making/stealing (causing restlessness in both factories, which increases the fear of them twofold-- which should do nice things to their ego)


But maybe both teams is ignorant about (a) partner(s)? They're out thinking they're after just one person. What do you guys think?

About Pigeon, she was meant to be some form of old friend, but that was a long time ago (stopped talking due to something like stealing/crime). It's very likely that she's in the picture for this. I think the idea of her being the 'lookout' accomplice for the BC is probably the best. Perhaps Pigeon could be the aforementioned 'convenient waitress' ? And maybe she could be a clue to the BC's whereabouts?

me? ideas? who do you think I am, the gm?

at an rate, I think Asia might not let Kiara out on a mission easily, especially considering the mess she got herself into. Thusly, she'd have to sneak out -- maybe this Pigeon works late night shifts at the Tower or something, and 'helps her' sneak out, only to tip off guards or something

-gets writing-


(if Pigeon works night shifts in the tower, Merc would have seen her though O: unless she colored her hair and gotten a tan or something, hmmm)
