Oh, I was curious about something. Clearly, traditional torture methods would be ineffective on /meat/heads, especially raiders. But what about sensory deprivation, solitary confinement, white torture and the like? Is this a type of torment that could "hurt" a /meat/head? /morig/ CIA is trying to figure out how to interrogate captives.

>> No.23905699

>>23905332
Yeah, it's a bit light on descriptions since not many have the taste for reading about it, and there is enough WIP in the lore as is. As for actual Aztec sacrifices, I think as far as suffering caused it's pretty mild compared with /meat/. They do have a focus on killing the victim instead of actively making them suffer, after all. That said, they really don't mind getting blood and gore around (although it might not be practical in their case, I reckon), so they'll be more gruesome in the sense that it's a literal bloodbath compared with the more surgical approach of /meat/. If you're interested, though, there're some Aztec sacrifice methods I found:
>The classic one, cutting your heart out before dumping your body down the stairs for further processing
>Tying the captive between trees and riddling them with arrows for a fertility ritual
>Drowning children, it's the preferred sacrifice for the water god Tlaloc
>There're records of people being burnt alive in enclosed space, but I don't know too much about it
>Although usually non-lethal, Mesoamericans also liked to pull thorned strings through body parts - one telling of the Five Suns cosmogony said that human flesh is made from Huitzilopochtli's blood after he did that to his junk

>>23905353
It probably varies a lot, although some raiders are known to make use of drugs to go berserk, so those who're hooked on it might not handle sensory deprivation well. Many of them might also rely on chuubanite tattoos and scars to keep themselves functional, so depriving them of chuubanite infusion probably will cause issues down the line for them as well. Of course, since /meat/heads are still humans (mostly), they likely won't have unlimited pain tolerance, so there *will* be a point where even they can't handle it. Of course, those are also often deadly, so using that for interrogation might not be optimal. I guess in a way, softer approaches might be better (if less morally permissible) than torture when it comes to coaxing information out of /meat/heads?

The Aztecs are uniquely bloodthirsty, after all, to the point that even their human-sacrificing neighbours think they're insane. The heart-cutting one is the most (in)famous both because it's probably done the most often (Huitzilopochtli is their main god, after all), and is arguably the most visually striking. The reason why /meat/ doesn't go for it is that, well, you don't live long after losing your heart, so it just won't do for /meat/heads.

Thanks for the info! Yes, I also think the soft approach is probably more effective on humans in general, research shows that torture is pretty mediocre at information extraction even on IRL humans. But historically, the political will to use those methods instead of torture is often lacking within the organizations that end up with captives...

>> No.23906369

>>23906033
iirc from my history class the neighbours are more tired of the number they sacrifice as opposed to the methods they use. But the scale of sacrifices is important for the Aztecs as it was the way they expand in size and economy plus encourage social advances that drives and fueled such expansion. So the later radical reforms by Moctezuma destroyed that dynamic and basically spelt the doom of their empire.

Well, on one hand, it's well-known that people will say whatever they think can get them out of the torture, even if they're false information. On the other hand, I don't know if those researches are done on repeated torture victims, where the effectiveness of lies is likely to reduce.
Ultimately, though, personally I don't think the desire for information is ever the actual goal of torture. It might be a nice excuse, and sometimes the higher-ups are not too keen on truth either, but ultimately, it's about exerting dominance over the others through control of their life and, sometimes, death.

torture is good for interrogation if the information can be confirmed in a timely manner, and if the consequences can be established from the onset. besides that, torture is almost entirely a morale thing. to stop a behavior before it happens, you must either reduce the likelihood of success, or increase the risk of failure enough that people will see it as a bad investment, torture is a way of confirming that if you get caught, you'll regret it immensely. just wanted to put that out there.
>>23905699
>they likely won't have unlimited pain tolerance
while this is true, i'd say that the pavlovian conditioning of associating pain with pleasure on a societal level, from birth to the grave might be able to overwrite a fair bit, if not all of that. idk if any /meat/ chuuba is irresponsible enough to get addicted to something, such that they can have a withdrawl endurance stream, but we do know at least a few of them have done other psychological torture streams in the past, not to mention two overdose streams, so experimenting with withdrawl wouldn't be so uncommon or unusual among elites if i had to guess.

That doc is quite wordy, >>23913036 is a good TLDR but I'll try to summarize it.
Chuubanite is a magical substance that exists on Vitubia.
In nature, it is usually bound to some other matter.
Chuubanite can have an affinity for a certain general, which can grant it special properties.
Chuubanite can do things like store and release energy (/kfp/ or /nasa/ chuubanite), affect the workings of lifeforms (/risu/, /meat/ or /morig/ chuubanite) and some others.
In /fauna/'s case, it's a given that /fauna/ chuubanite would be the source of the supernatural growth of its forests, if that is a thing.

The reason why I mention a symbiote with saplings is because this world has chimera species. Risuners have two unique DNAs with human and squirrel. Its how Risuners can breed with their species among others. That kind of chimera DNA might be hard to have with Human and Plant. Though Rosebutas are practically all plant with some animal cells.

The two sets of DNA would allow a demi-human to mate with another human or even demi-human of another species by exchanging the human DNA. The animal DNA of a demi-human would exchange between demi-humans of that species. That's how I proposed it a while back. I don't think it was expanded upon in the archives yet.

it would be difficult from a physical perspective for chuubanite to bind to human dna specifically, since at that scale human dna, being made out of amino acids and the like, would look identical to any other kind of dna. symbiotes is one path you could take, but as they mentioned, that would imply saplings were only partially human. what about a virus or bacteria that can only survive in /uuu/'s climate that evolved to only have a noticeable effect on human dna in the form of a crispr cas9 sort of style of gene editing? once the genes are edited, itm doesn't matter what happens to the virus, though the longer you are in the woods, the more time the virus has to change you into a sappling. maybe the virus also has a sort of fountain of y/uoh/th property that extends the life of the person (not indefinitely no matter how long) depending on how long they stay in the forest. if it isn't a symbiote, virus, or bacteria, idk how it would work from a physical perspective. chuubanite might be magic, but it shouldn't be nonsense.

Being vegan or vegetarian w/ no dairy & eggs means saplings would need to find some good sources of protein. In order to make say some onions based protein and have it available to all saplings, /uuu/ would need a decent level of farming to do that. So I propose that either have saplings be vegetarian in the more traditional sense and also consumes milk and eggs, or in addition to that, imports some processed onions products from /who/ and elsewhere.

I would say that's pretty much mandatory in a time before modern refrigeration, so probably. Of course, /meat/heads have their own peculiar taste for meat, which means that setting up butcheries in other countries can be... tricky. I assume that in those cases, they would just import ice from somewhere and put pre-cut meat in on-board icehouse or something. That said, the skill of cooking meat should be easily transferable to other kinds of meat if their culinary skills are desired overseas.

The thing is, ships make for very poor butcher houses because they naturally rock a lot when sailing, the damp environment onboard would also make for a bad dry ageing environment. A more plausible way of transporting meat via sea routes is to just ship them alive and be butchered in the port they arrived in. When transporting live animals you also have to account for the diseases the animals carry and the environment of the ship.(https://www.izs.it/vet_italiana/2008/44_1/19.pdf)) Because of this, unless your ship is designed for this purpose or well maintained that it minimizes such risks, you are going to lose quite a lot of the live animals on board. Potentially losing half of your merchandise before you arrive at port is pretty bad for business and not conducive for large scale consumption of your shipped product in the target market.
For shorter journeys, it's possible for a large scale commercial live animal trade such as from /meat/ to /risu/ but for longer journeys, I found it less believable for countries to trade fresh meat. Of course it would have to account for the tech level of the two countries too.

so, i appologize if i sound annoying, if you think this isn't interesting, please tell me, but i prefer trying to hammer the physics out as much as possible just so we know how everything works, it's fun for me, and if you aren't interested you don't need to engage in it, but i would personally prefer it if we made everything as detailed as possible. my point in bringing up chuubanite was that chuubanite is ubiquitous in this setting. if dna responds to one kind of chuubanite in such a dramatic way, why wouldn't it respond in a similar way to all the rest? we should try to think of a specific process through which that would happen. if viruses and bacteria don't work, what process would cause dna to change in the presence of fauna chuubanite in particular in such a way that it makes them saplings? it isn't a small feat to turn an animal into a plant, /rose/ got through it with symbiotes, but i suppose you could get through it by carefully choosing the physical impact of the magical effect of your chuubanite on a physical level, /meat/ chuubanite makes things go through the life cycle faster. this results in regeneration of organic material because organic material is by definition self-regenerative but it would have to be more simplistic than "change the fleshy parts into woody parts" because chuubanite should mostly work on a microscopic level. making it a virus or symbiote could help in increasing the scale from molecular, to cellular, which is where the difference between animals and plants are better defined. the chuubanite would effectively act as a pilot in that circumstance, while the symbiote or virus does all the real work, and since organic life forms can be evolutionarily programmed to quite a degree of specificity, the fact that it only effects humans could make more sense. if you have another idea that you would prefer, that is great, i just personally would like it if it made sense in these terms.

My idea is that chuubanite is activated by the user's belief/faith.
So even if the concept being worshipped/practiced is vague, the specific modifications depend on the person's spirituality
A Fauna worshipper gets Fauna chuubanite in his body. As long as he is mentally and spiritually aligned with Fauna, the chuubanite expends its magical energy to alter the user. Flesh gets replaced with cellulose, creating plant-like biology, his organs start producing chlorophyll, etc

Some more detailed thoughts regarding the effects of /who/'s chuubanite, especially on organisms. I think /who/rep originally intended for us to have owl girl shock troopers, not as cool but it would do, I think. No-paragraph anon if you found any fault in it please let me know.

/who/ chuubanite: Biological effects intent: Promotes growth of civilization(mostly on farmed crops and animals, some positive effect on humans)

Chuubanite have highly selective effect on organisms within /who/:
- Mostly on grain crop or crop artificially selected to have larger fruits/seeds: increased photosynthesis & fruiting rate > faster growth rate, better nutritional density, better taste(partly subjective, e.g. fruits have slightly higher fructose content)
- Growth and health on other types of (wild)plants also observed but extremely marginal(<1%), only type with noticeable difference are berries.
- Plants esp. farming cultivars absorb higher than usual amount of chuubanite
enters into digestive system
- Interacts with different cells in humans which promote both muscle growth, increased ATP production & storage(work longer before feel exhausted), also average focus time(unfortunately causes increased autism/add rate in some population)
- Natives respond to the chuubanite more than non native
-Ruminants absorb chuubanite by eating sheer amount of grass, omnivores(pigs & poultry) absorb it through eating food scrap/feed made from plants disproportionally affected(human food)
-Effect in animals only affect muscle growth and energy conversion
-Wildlife very marginally affected like plants. Some urban scavengers also exhibit observed effects on livestock but much weaker.

Other effects

Polygenic disorder:
- Females disproportionally affected. Only present in native pouplation.
- Strong association with the mother(only inherited through mother, Mitochondrial?)
lower skeleton(decrease of ~40-50%), muscle mass(decrease of ~10-20%)
weaker bones, muscle mass and strength can be partially recovered through the consumption of crops grew in higher chuubanite areas, but skeleton mass marginal increase only bone strength.
- Depends on individual, most would need wheelchair for longer distances, can stand and support themselves for extended period of time(hours) but usually can't walk for >15 minutes, sprint for ~100 meters before feeling pain. Too much physical exertion could break bones.
- New back skeletal muscle group connected with wing, similar to aviant flight muscle. Specialised cells in wing stores chuubanite. Limited articulation of wing due to skeletal structure, flight achieved mostly by expenditure of chuubanite, which creates vertical lift. Visibally emits amber colored chuubanite particles. The subject then are able to glide in a limited fashion and maintain altitude by occasionally flapping their wings(which expends more chuubanite). Depending on individual's physical ability & cell + chuubanite concentration, flight last no longer than 25 minutes before exhaustion, 1 1/2 hour before expending all chuubanite. Accumulation process slow, mostly through food and small amount from air & water, takes at least 2-3 weeks before completely replenished.
- Feather patterns different in individuals. Hair in some areas replaced by down feathers.
- Slightly lower cone cell ratio in eyes, reflective tissue behind eyes, like cats
- No observed difference in neck bone structure

I might incorporate the latter part on owl girls into a short story sometime later. Not anchoring until I either did that or expand the first part on crops into an actual paragraph.

If not the body then you can use it for machinery. KFP use it for storing and releasing energy. So you could use it for electricity or heat or something. Which would drastically help out in many cases if you are creative enough. Risuners use it to accelerate plant growth so if you wanna use it on the environment you could make it so metal is stronger maybe? Just the first thought that came to my head.

i am the guy who advocates the warp interpretation of chuubanite, belief/devotion to a concept is how i typically describe people who have high affinity to a chuubanite type. neither the chuubanite, nor the chuubanite effect should be controllable with belief and devotion alone. chuubanite is a material, the magical effect is determined by which concepts are associated with whatever the vitubium has bonded with. there should ideally be a way where you explain how the chuubanite achieves it's intended effect. as i said, if this doesn't interest you, so be it, but just saying flesh gets replaced by cellulose tells us nothing about how. chuubanite has local effects, it is smaller than dna, how does it influence dna at such a small size if it doesn't have any method to observe it's surroundings, and doesn't have the ability to control matter outside it's range of contact in a precise way. instead of making chuubanite itself be the thing that makes these changes, you should have some machine of sorts that can be influenced by the chuubanite while still being large and complex enough to have more precise behavior, one of the smallest scales of this being a virus. you could have human-specific genetic changes that are only found in a specific region/climate that are dramatic enough to turn flesh into cellulose over the course of time we are talking about if the chuubanite operated on the scale of genetics, such as with a virus or bacteria, or on the scale of an organism, such as with /rose/'s symbiotes, but you can't feasibly do that on the scale of molecules. in the end, the result is the same, only the explanation differs, but one is a more efficient explanation that maintains the logic of the setting.
>>23948366
worship mostly effects the conceptual side of everything, but i think in the same way certain materials can have high affinity for one or more concepts, same can be said for individuals. it's not that it is triggered/activated by worship, it's that it's almost passively resisted otherwise by the sheer fact that there are other things competing to be the strongest correlated concept to any given thing. meditation on a single concept, in this case being fauna, would only further reduce the competition, thus opening yourself up to the effects of nature that were always present, which might be a bit more symbolic, come to think of it.

Maybe chuubanite is 'sentient'? Not exactly sentient to the point it can think, but once it enters a living being, it forms a mutual relationship.
The host's thoughts/beliefs/natural instincts are shared with the substance.
While the substance cannot think, it uses them as a vector to alter the environment it's in to match the desires of the host.
Although this would be logical for organic chuubanite/vtubium inside living creatures.
As for how deposits in the ground and water alters the environment, it would probably receive the thoughts of nearby sentient species

sounds good to me. just to clarify, this is a species that evolved specifically to their local chuubanite over the course of millions or so of years, right? developing hollower bones and autism is one thing, but feathers are practically an entirely different organ, which is why most flying mammals use skin flaps, not that you should do that, but if not influenced by chuubanite, evolution would probably take a less inefficient route, not that mutations should be intelligent or anything.

the warp interpretation would describe vitubium as a material that can bridge the gap between our universe and a universe of concepts. the conceptual energy seeping out of the vitubium is the origin of all the unique magical effects, pure vitubium is highly unstable, and binds to whatever it is in contact with, in this state, all the conceptual energies are released indiscriminately, it is effectively so unsafe and unpredictable that you are in danger just being near it. chuubanite is formed when vitubium binds with something near it. different chuubanite is made depending on the substance it binds to. the substances have high affinity with a concept, which causes that concept to be dominant, thus resisting all other types. i have been thinking about ways to limit the concepts to thread topics in a natural way, but ultimately, it's unnecessary with the inclusion of symbolism and affinity, concepts that have no thread affinity aren't strong enough concepts to out compete others. regardless, these concepts might be described as having a goal, same as anything else in nature might be described as having a goal, it does not. it's personification of natural phenomena that has no will of it's own. chuubanite is not sentient, and any effect it has is a product of cause and effect. your thoughts alone might effect what affinity pure vitubium, or ambiguous chuubanite (two or more equal affinities) has, but you would do so at your own risk, as it would still be very unstable do to the ever shifting nature of affinity in this context.

From the way you ordered these ideas, it puts vtubium below the hierarchy of concepts
How about we switch the hierachy.
Concepts -> Chuuba deity -> Vtubium
Meaning that Vtubium itself is not the one that defines the concepts it's supposed to affiliate with, but the deities themselves.
It could also answer >>23950801
A region would originally have Vtubium A
But once believers of Chuuba B appeared, Vtubium A receives energy from Chuuba B instead.
The Vtubium deposits can easily switch its affinity and affiliated powers easily because the 'concept' it's supposed to represent had already been decided by the deity

My morning wood wont die so fuck it im writing this.
"One of the most unique flora native to the land of Risuners are the Nut Pitcher Plants. Biologically and physically they almost match a pitcher plant in every way except for the pitcher plants. The pitchers themselves are not shaped as pitchers. They do not collect rainwater nor feed on bugs. They feed on nuts. Risuner nuts. The pitchers themselves are shaped similarly to onaholes, believed to be in the shape, texture, and interior of the goddess Risu herself. Some folklores mention that it was Risu herself who planted these foliage during her /here/ visits as a prank. It is not uncommon for young Risuner boys to harvest the 'pitchers' for personal use."

have we had this discussion before? you sound like that guy who suggested making vitubium appear out of thin air one day to avoid the problem of the universe being unfit for life before intelligent life capable of thought formed. what do you stand to gain from any of this? we'd just be changing how everything in our universe works from a hard magic system to a soft one, which is inferior by my world building standards, not to mention forcing us to change any lore we made based on the assumption that our magic system had a form of logic behind it, all for what? correct me if i have misunderstood anything, or if i accused you of being someone you aren't, but i'm just responding to what i see. also, there is no hierarchy here. vitubium is the physical thing, concepts are the conceptual thing, chuubas are concepts, along with all the non-chuuba things that /vt/ threads are made about, so they affect the conceptual side of the interaction, whereas vitubium, being physical, affects the physical side of things. you need both to produce any effect, they are both equally important for producing that effect, they just have different roles to play in doing so. also, chuubanite is not physically affected by concepts, just like concepts aren't conceptually affected by physics. chuubanite is not physically changed in the presence of sentience, nor should it's physical characteristics be controllable with thought. if any effect is produced by thought alone, it's on the conceptual side, which would either not have a noticeable impact, or it would have an unstable reaction that would be dangerous to use. does that clarify how this stuff works more? it's not a hierarchy.

Right. We have threads dedicated to tangential topics like fetishes, numbers, virtual money. So putting chuubas as the fixed mediator wouldnt make sense when /#/ can pull out number magic

The owl girls are more meant to be a kind of disorder that's unique to the specific group that has been living in /who/ for hundreds of generations. So they don't make much evolutionary sense. But then to give sufficient explanation on how the feathers came up one would probably have to plan out how humans, in general, evolved back in /jp/ as well. Because I presume /jp/ didn't have /who/ or any chuuba's chuubanite before they debuted, that would severely limit the possible source on how they got the mutated genes that makes them very occasionally grow wings, among other features. If /who/ chuubanite only influenced the pop for around two thousand years, and one has to explain how they got the gene, I can only say magic, duh.To fully address any potential inconsistency gets exponentially harder & complex, the payoff also diminishes because I intend them to only be a sort of religious icon, treated as sort of living saints.

affinity shifts somewhat erratically, due to it coming from symbolism which is a conceptual thing, so that could do it, or the natural decay of chuubanite as a radioactive material. evolution of chuubanite is also an idea, when two factions have a similar chuubanite effect but used slightly differently. also, there is kobo and Kalinin chuubanite if threads are still made for them, but it will be more unstable. sorry if i accused you of being someone else, many similar ideas over the past few months since we got this thread to be more active. i was here back when it was made, so i’ve heard a lot of ideas.

Some soulless slaves still toiled the land, but with the thaumaturgs less interested in reanimating slaves for the populace, the common men felt abandoned. Demands were made that the Thaumatugs should provide slaves to keep the kingdom going. The conflict escalated and finally, in an act of remarkable hubris, the Thaumatugs decided to settle the problem once and for all. In a great ceremony every Thaumaturg in the kingom joined a communion and poured their lower souls into a ritual that would open a gate to the underworld, so that the dead willingly might return to the land of the living as workers and farmers. The rituel succeeded, in a way. The gate opened, but the lower souls of the Thaumaturgs where ripped apart and swallowed by the gate. And from the gate emerged, not dead servants, but a spectral host of legionnaires and shadows. Now the land is slowly withering and falling under the dominions of a God of darkness.

I dont watch her a lot. Used to but risu has always been my oshi.

Somehow "watch less vtubers" turned into "watch only risu, kaela, rosemi like once every 2 weeks or so, and a 2 view i wont mention". Well anyway im no callie anti i mean yeah the whole lean thing was pretty fucking stupid on her as well as a few other things but there is definitely way worse things that others have done.

Assigning a specific date to each story would be pretty great, but honestly I think that may be a bit ambitious, especially since many of the stories are written by anons who are no longer working on the project (i assume), so the option to consult the author on those cases goes out the window.

/omesis/

A very separate development from the ancient original Four Kings culture, the Sorority Omega was overlooked in the classic age, but being minor served to be a blessing: After the fall of the Four, the Omegans that descended from the sorority had strayed from the original core of civilization, and thus survived. The Omegans were a learned and inquisitive people, and had a plethora of odd knowledge and sciences they practiced.

Seeing ground-borne life was a bit more savage, The Omegans took to hot air ballooning. Their desire to flee into the sky grew, so that in the present, many hot air balloons are clustered together suspending large living platforms underneath. Though this greatly limits what they can develop, they have their hands in every craft they can. Their lighter than air existence means they have to master navigation, weather-lore, as well as ropework and repair.

Being a civilization on the wind, they often journey to the ground for resources. though they can lower ropes, nothing beats finding a moment of peace and open ground to touchdown for a few hours, maybe a day. When on the ground, the Omegan's don't waste time, and will trade or harvest what they need to keep their skyborne civilization going.

The Omegans primarily practice chemistry, woodcrafting, and courier messaging. Their foods are limited to poultry, mushrooms, and whatever grains they can trade from their trips to the ground below. They can grow limited spices and onions in the limited soil troughs onbard the platforms, but most of their serious food has to be taken off the ground or netted from the sea. Culturally, they are resource managers: nothing can be wasted if it can be helped.

The Omegan art of war tends to be minimal. They run from what they can. Their warriors are primarily archers, though they also use smoke and decoys as often as possible. Living onboard an airborne platform restricts heavy weapons and makes armor negligible. On the good side, Omegan arrowheads tend to be really ingenious, often carrying poison, sleep, or some other special quality.

We have nylon brushes for pets that catch shedding fur. Eventually we want to develop brushes for mammoths once mammoths are familiar with us to let us get close to them. Mammoths sometimes die migrating in the summer from heat exhaustion. So brushing off their shedding fur should help them survive the heat. Also with cleaner fur mammoths shouldn't need to go further north in schizo territory, which is all ice tundra.

Another benefit I thought about brushing mammoths is that it exposes more parasites like ticks to birds who love to follow mammoths like elephants. Ticks, fleas, and other parasites are a great source of protein to some birds. The other thing to keep in mind with these mammoths is that they co-exist with the modern species in the tundra. Tortoises also welcome mammoth company as mammoths can eat excess grass from the tortoise's backs if the grass gets too heavy for tortoises to carry.

What should /nasa/ prepare for /risu/'s landing? I'd say a tour of the station. However hoomans taking notes and the robosan invite scared security too much. So they banned all natives from entering the station. I guess we'll have to make due with tourism outside the station. We can set up hologram projectors to display AR simulations and games. We can also use holograms to display 360° film documentaries of local wildlife. Porn is banned from public display so no AR interactive porn. Perhaps by now /nasa/ has an air-filtered hot pool house. Hot pools are giant bubbling hot tubs Sanalites use to rehabilitate their bones after a long week of work. They are not bath houses. So you will have to wear swimwear if you want to use the hot pool. /nasa/ also has RC sailboat racing and other remote control vehicle sports that we live broadcast from inside and outside the station. We also have AR and VR sports, which are sports that use augmented and virtual realities that test physical skill. E-sports are a thing, but that's for nerds. I guess AR holograms can also be used to inact both theatre and full movie productions. We even have various types of animation video productions as well.

And this is why the lock down has to end before /risu/ arrives.

Oh yea, Jonathan stayin in the picture has been my plan all along, both he and Alexander are what this station needs right now, two sides of the same coin. While they both have their quirks, neither is what I would classify as a main antagonist. Shame I didn't really get to write much about him though, since my parts have mostly focused on Alex, and now Mac and Charlie.

The only vacation you are getting is as a manager of the Owl republic bakery we are opening, if you would take the spot. Otherwise be prepared to be wrung dry with the catch up diplomacy you will need to do for Lamington.

I have plans for the next part with negotiations. I still can be thread rep with votes. I don't consider me to be the characters in the story.

>> No.23990657

>>23990262
Oh yea, you would still be the rep, but "your" character, Alex, would kinda take the back role, just handling a bakery in /who/ with a robosan assistant and maybe handling the diplomacy with them specifically. Would also give us an established character in the republic if hoomans ever wanna write a story involving us or something.

I'm also taking Mikael out of the picture very soon, if by some small chance you planned anything with him, as a central explorer character for short pieces on my fauna entries (just like 1-2 paragraphs journal entries encountering different species that I and others would introduce into this world).

Personally, I would go for a welcome outside the station, and if they arrive just as negotiations end, or in the days after, there is double reason to hold a small party. A tour inside the station also wouldn't be out of the question, but they would be strictily monitored, and taken through in a group, like in a school trip to a museum. I think it could serve as a great first try of the new Directive, with the isolationalists experiencing that mingling with locals ain't that bad in the end.

Could also have some comic relief with Alex and perhaps some others, who would have at least passing knowlege of the squirrel people from local texts, trying their hardest to keep the squirrels away from some of the more zealous members, like Jonathan only to find him behind a building later in the evening, in a company of a delightfully fluffy lady or something.
