- @Corvid what's next week looking like? do you think you'd be able to finish your post on Monday (or in the days leading up)? or do you need more time? we can work either way, just want a feel for it since your post would be next
- I want to add in another Silas post where the teens hang out at Lake Lily for his birthday, as a last show of their group as friends before things are torn apart: but also as an opportunity to foreshadow stuff. Can ya'll help me brainstorm what those things could be and what could happen, specifically in Silas's POV? So that it's not an aimless "vibes" post. Tagging @Wolfi in particular.
I think once corvid's post gets up, it'll clear the pad immensely.
We can have Silas's bday post be the closing one - so that at that point, all of the kids will be in the suns except Silas and Saoirse. It would be a possible point of conflict, as well.
Let me know ya'll's thoughts! I'm enjoying this chapter and looking forward to the next one as things in the plot ramp up. I love writing with you guys <3
The lake post could be the last time the gang's all together </3 Glad we're doing it
I could see Saoirse not wanting to show up at all because of all the Suns but she does it for Silas. He might have to beg her to come and tell her straight-out that he needs a non-Sun ally there, in case they're trying to plan something. Saoirse doesn't get why he's going along with it at all - it's his birthday, why are they doing something he doesn't want to do? Because he does want to do it because he misses everyone and misses what was - it's complicated!
There can def be some adorable and awkward Ossie/Ivy moments. Maybe Caelan crosses the line with Ivy at one point because he's starting to catch on that something's off with her, and Ossie defends her (queue splash fight)
Ramona and Silas can have a conversation off to the side about the next deal. He probably still uses Morgan as an excuse but only superficially - he knows she knows, but still, it makes it less awkward to pretend it's for someone else. Ramona plays along teasingly. Silas hasn't told Saoirse about the lumshade yet and Saoirse is suspicious about why she isn't included in this conversation
I also like that there'll be an opportunity now to show the short-term effects of lumshade on Silas before the time jump to full addiction :,)
Kyle has RSVPed yes to this party btw. The goat, not the stepdad. (Unless??)
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
I imagine there will be a lot of tension when they all get together since they are all going in different directions that oppose each other’s agenda. Maybe even a “can we not talk/argue about this here? It’s Silas’s birthday” kind of moment.
For myself, I think we should have some Caelan and Ramona banter/interaction to keep up the continuity till the chapter that he uses her to get information and she thinks that he likes her.

Love all the ideas being thrown out! I’d really love to give Ossie a chance to be happy with friends, since so many of his posts are overpowered by his anxiety, so some Ivy/Ossie stuff is fun, and I also think Ossie will try his best to act like nothing is wrong and nothing has changed in friend dynamics so it’ll be interesting to say the least with the tension of suns vs not suns

Love this, and excited. Sounds like we have clarity: - corv, prioritize Saoirse’s post! - the rest of us can finish/polish our posts and collab with wolfi for the Party Post :) and corv can hop down when Saoirse’s post is redy and as needed
Heads’ up — I will probably be 15-20mins late. I’m trying to fit in my daily run between a meeting and our write-in. I need my sunshine and exercise lol
I also may not be there tonight. Im gonna try but it looks like i will be driving somewhere for work >_> this new job conflicts with mondays and i am so annoued abt it
Im so sorry for how long this post is taking. I promise I have been working on it - i only have a bit left to finish up in a google doc (been using that since the pad isnt the best on mobile) and ill copy n paste it into the pad for any edits/suggestions. Hoping to get it done by tomorrow evening >->
I am going to be a bit late tonight again (they keep scheduling me for Monday nights, sigh) but I will be there hopefully by 10pm CST, which is… several hours late, but I will still try to get some stuff done even if people aren’t in there :]

I hope you feel better and rested, @Lael! If you can make it, see ya there.
@Corvid I’m sorry work’s been annoying with schedule conflicts, but I understand! If you can drop your wip in the pad that’d be awesome <3 I look forward to reading it and if you can get it done Tues-Weds that’d be sweet!
