    consider: bel and negaje having an Encounter while whitey and erskin are hanging out, and observing, delightedly.

    i mean, they're trolls. their social instincts would be less 'oh no a conflict let's resolve it' and more 'lol get the popcorn'.

    ahaha i have no confidence i could actually write it anytime soon, but i love the idea. :D

    pancho shows up to steal some popcorn, erskin and whitey are like "you're not going to go in papping are you, this is too entertaining" and she's like "nah, fifty caegars says they end up in cahoots and prank you both inside out" and they get spooked looks

    wait a sec, if the deco kei plastic gewgaws bel put on erskin's leg are the equivalent of death metal studs and spikes, then jay's death metal studs and spikes are the equivalent of

    I miss our trash babies too. A_A so here is me saying I am more than happy to bring out Lu whenever you guys need her, and in the meantime I think I will write some self-indulgent blather.

    (alsoalso, weirdly enough, for some reason tumblr deleted lackadaisicallimpet. Fortunately I don't think we lost anything that didn't get captured already--what wasn't in reblog chains got put in the giant googledoc log book, so thank you again jesse for putting that together because elsewise I would be really really sad right now X))

    ugh, tumblr is such a functional website. :(

    i'm kind of sad and upset that my brainfuck has put so much rp on hold for so long. i really want to play but i'm just paralyzed by choice and brainfog. if someone else picked an rp and told me which of my charas to play and just basically let me react to stuff, and we didn't end up in situations where i have to play multiple characters, i could probably do that some? but i just don't have the executive function to be the make-it-happen guy.

    i haven't been as impatient as usual lately because i've been on a kick writing motorcity stuff with splickedy— so i'm impatient to write stuff with her! but i'd be happy to get some troll stuff done too. i'm blanking on discworld, but sunslammer stuff is always fun.

    OKAY I JUST REMEMBERED, WHAT IF!!! what if subjugglator punchdick fills bel's work order for new personnel by transferring 200-300 of his own support lowbloods over? the sunslammer goes from 'sliver of a skeleton crew (150)' to 'recommended minimum compliment (400ish)', which has been erskin's dearest fucking dream for a sweep now. but the new guys are rife with clownhell abuse fleas and are trained in support of a battle cathedral rather than a carrier. so every last surviving sunslammer crewmember gets an immediate promotion to 'supervisor' and it's a really bumpy couple of peregees to get them trained in like 'don't stab people first thing' and 'this is where you order new tools' and 'dirt is good actually' and 'here's what's up with our airlocks' and 'seriously please stop stabbing people'.

    i love it tremendously. i think bel and erskin would have conflicts over how to deal with this, but in an interesting and possibly constructive way.

    i have a mental image of tiny!lu lecturing the new crew about how clown religion is REALLY about fun and colors, not stabbing.

    i want to finish up the 'everyone gets high with whitey' scene! if i have lainey boss everyone around, do you think that would work to get you unstuck? lainey is great at bossing people.

    lainey's a quick drunk but a friendly one, i figure. mostly her possessiveness just gets even less subtle. ditto her dirty sense of humor. she's like two or three hard drinks in so i figure she's got about an hour before she declares someone her new throne and falls asleep on them.

    lainey grabbed whitey like that to try and refocus him from stuff that's distressing to just feeling her. might not be great for whitey's particular overload, but i figure it works kind of like a warm pressure blanket on erskin when he's flipping out, so that's what she's used to doing with freaked-out seadwellers.

    i think it'd proba bly work for the usual sorts of overstim, but in whitey's case it was a taste/smell combo that got him, so the fin covering didn't help. i think his lipsmacking and scrunchyface might give them a clue now.

    i should mention -- i'm giving him this reaction partly because i've been there, and partly because i figure seadwellers aren't as used to strong scents and flavors as landdwellers, like they're evolved to eat raw fish underwater so having fumes up in their sinuses is extra distressing.
