Boat Trolls planning thread! (full of spoilers, non-players enter at your own risk)

augh what a cutie. i still maintain a pale threesome would be cute as fuck but maybe some other time.... maybe if bel gets too stressed at some point or something. poor kid has had a really shitty perigee. then again bel having some kind of problem and erskin successfully addressing it in a blackrom way would be cool too. KIDS.

i gotta snooze but i'll be checkin on shit every now and then anyway because i am a big nerd.

 

i think we are probably gonna start abusing dream shenanigans because the possibility for goofy one-off adventures is like, limitless? imagine if erskin poked his head in to see bel dreaming about (being) captain alternia.

 

ETA: it would actually be kinda cool to have a situation where erskin walks in on seeing just how broken-up and scared bel is that his quadrants and friends are gonna die on him. played out maybe through that situation where galley's the soldier— i guess erskin could be the falcon? that'd be a hell of a dynamic.

(now i'm thinking about sam and steve as a pitch-pale couple and getting dokis oh no)

 

i like the idea of erskin as falcon because playing with that 'supportive ass-kicking bestie sidekick' role as a blackrom is actually really interesting. but erskin showing up in a smart suit with a packet of cranberries and eating them while heckling everyone is a charming thought too. NOW I'M TORN THANKS A LOT.

anyway yeah if you start in on bel's dream— let's do the lighter and less HORRIBLE EMOTION ADVENTURES bird dream?

 

bird body language varies from species to species, tho puffing up means 'i am large and pissed off' to most everyone... direct stares are challenging, ditto beak clacking and feinting pecks. here's kind of an interesting article i just dug up on golden vs bald eagles. http://kimmiddleton.com/blog/35990/bald-eagles-vs-golden-eagles

also i love the way raptors have sweet, whistling and mewing vocalizations and corvids are just like HEY WANNA HEAR MY IMPERSONATION OF AN AIRHORN HERE YA GO AAAAAAAAAH. what a bunch of doofs.

i like the idea of them forgetting to be birds at some point for better macking advantage— and then the dream turns very abruptly into a falling dream. then one of them can go pounce on the other irl.

 

so ok behold my favorite thing: the corvid tail-pull game. they do this to everyone.

 

RIP, lunch.

 

good luck! i got moving-in stuff to be doing so i might not be responding to stuff as promptly this weekend.

 

Oh shit i just realized, depending in what Jethro has told bel of his dream dates and before that erskins sudden research into psychic shit, bel could have little-to-no knowledge that dream fuckery is a thing erskin can do now. Id definitely like to see him working through the surprise, and implications... And strategic wartime/ rebel applications!
