I've posted. I've had this written for a while, so I'm not sure why I took this long to actually post it, but it's been done regardless.

I'm up next! Sheyren and I already started discussing things, but we'll finalise things later in the week. I hope to post before the newsletter is submitted, so I'll start writing on Friday.

I am ashamed to admit I had only just now read the last two posts, but wow — what posts they were!

@Tortwag, Miyavi's dialogue and thought processes are simultaneously charming and at least odd, if nothing else, which is as delightful to read as always! More than that, though, the scene where Vey/Remedy (I almost don't want to say his name, as if you reading it would affect Miyavi XD) was snatched by the Bull was excellently written. When I started reading it, it was as if the background noise of the class faded slightly and became less important. We see that happen in the media all the time, but I don't recall ever having experienced it myself before! O.o Well done!

@Sheyren, I enjoyed seeing the contrast between Welturna's and Miyavi's mindsets emphasised. Not only does this make for interesting dialogue, but it also highlights the mental conflicts each must endure. I thought that was well-written, so nicely done! You post also leads perfectly into mine, so it feels like I've received a gift or something. XD

@BrumalHunter I think it's pretty normal, considering how annoying Time is XD But congrats for catching up, man! And glad you enjoyed yourself, too!

Neat! Consistency is still my main issue, so, I'm glad to see that I can still manage that with her (it's still the first time I write a character like her in that kind of setting, so, I can't help but wonder all the time if I can manage). Are you talking about her dialogue/thought-process in the Turbulence post specifically, or just in general? Maybe I'm just imagining things, but I feel like I wrote her differently when collabing with Shey. Hmm, maybe it's because she was having a big conversation with a specific person for the first time?

Oh. Yay! Yeah, that was supposed to be the most shocking part, so, glad I didn't mess that up. Okay! This confirms that.
(Also, YEAH, it's an awesome feeling/moment!)

Welp, I'm glad I was the first one to allow you to experience that, m'dear. That being said, yeah, I think the contrast of Miyavi's mindset VS Welturna's was the best part (Thanks for the war-talk, Shey, it was perfect :3). Welp, time for Septhis to shine! Haven't seen him in a while, so, I'm pumped. Good luck have fun!

Thanks, I shall! And I meant specifically in the Turbulence post. I'll have to reread Sheyren's one, as my focus there was on Welturna more than Miyavi.

@Lumi, would you make up a random name for the Eldritch Lemurian Goddess? The only name I have is Akh Singue, and that's an entity you've saved for later. (A pre-emptive name for the Void Goat would also be nice, jsut as reference.)

Akh Singue is the name of the lemurian bastard goddess. A naga-like creature.

And THE GOAT is, in my notes, Z’Baal. Ignore the pun. XD

Oh, so Akh Singue is the one responsible for the sinking? That's convenient! I've had the name the whole time, then.

Post submitted! @Sheytato, if anything seems off or inaccurate to you, feel free to let me know, and I'll happily edit it. In the meantime, enjoy! Sephtis is now finally part of the group. XD

I was waffling over this, but since the post included my favorite Brayel line thus far, I'm definitely giving you a passive trait, @BrumalHunter!

Spoiler! :

Sephtis:// Rejoining
Owing to the breaking of his faux-solitude, Sephtis has been granted passives twofold!
    1. A passive bonus to diplomacy +1.
    2. Reputation boost (10pts) with Ärmoni Works Company and Calloway Law.


Utilize these passives in-narrative as you see fit; I'll be writing an Anberlin post next!

And now that she's confessed it to everyone, Anberlin's Premonition passive, which gives her glimpses of the future in her dreams, but never with clarity.

Hah, thanks, @Lumi! An increase in diplomacy fits perfectly with the post's content. XD

I'll be going to sleep soon, so I shall read your post tomorrow!

Daaaang I guess I must've written Brayel well, because you both (hunter and lumi) wrote him perfectly (pfff especially the prick and the bourgeois lines). o-o

Great posts, everyone!

non tornò vivo alcun, s'i' odo il vero,
senza tema d'infamia ti rispondo.
