Ptriciadactyl

Becky
...dammit
Ptriciadactyl
Do you want Tris reunion or should we save that for when/if he actually arrives?
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Clark Luthor:
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Ptriciadactyl
: if you want to toss taura at him, we can; I'm gonna work on an app
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Becky
: the Crisis event did... things
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
please see gif
Becky
Oh darling
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
kasterborous: do you know how hard I'm tempted to use current Tom Welling for icons?
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
SO HARD
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
...look, he has to take care of Kent. Kent's an idiot. A well-meaning idiot.
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
He loves you, alternate him. In his own weird stupid broken Hufflepuff way
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
doooo it
Ptriciadactyl
Please continue the Taura Makeover Process, Clark
Ptriciadactyl
I'll tag him after my dentist's appointment.
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
np!
Ptriciadactyl
and/or phone tag from the dentist's office while waiting
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
kasterborous: do you really think he'd sit back with an ability to do something about this given... stuff?
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Clark's gotta Clark
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
he left for narrative reasons, not because I don't love playing him. so yeah,
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
WOOF. I'd be at limit
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
but I think I can swing it
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
like, I'm 90% certain I'm already at AC at this point
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
just had to recover from the madhouse that was Oct and Nov
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
and now that i'm back i ngroove, I should be able to do PSL stuff too
Lady Stardust
Claaaaaaaaaaaaaark
Ptriciadactyl
Taura, unlike Tris, would be such a willing makeover subject. The work's half done, just needs finishing
Ptriciadactyl
I am cackling at the notion of Harry running into Clark before Tris does
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Plaid, Kent
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
PLAID.
Ptriciadactyl
"hello, since you left I asked your sister to marry and adopt 5 children with me"
book of thot
yesss i should get proper CR with him this time
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
kasterborous: Yeah, I might update icons. I mean. we have no indication he doesn't at least age to that age
Ptriciadactyl
Clark better be ready to be dragged to family dinner with Tris and Harry at least once a week. Get to know her fiance, she loves him a lot.
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Ptriciadactyl
: I actually am quite sure he'll like him
Ptriciadactyl
what's not to like? Harry is so good
Mad Larkin
have Thomas, too
Lady Stardust
/flings Iris at
Lady Stardust
bsolutely literally
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Lady Stardust
: he will happily catch her
Lady Stardust
also naked, but i forgot to say that
Lady Stardust
wolf Iris wears a rolled up sarong as a collar but she's not gonna bother
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
I assumed the naked
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
you should remember Clark wouldn't care
Lady Stardust
i do
Lady Stardust
also the changing midstride took a lot of practise
fuzzypink
I had to
Lady Stardust
she worked at that for hours in the enclosure
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
fuzzypink
: yaaaay
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Lady Stardust
: it’s very impressive
Ptriciadactyl
I have no idea what your timeline is for potentially apping him, but if he arrives while the Barge is in port Tris is going to demand to go flying pretty much immediately. Otherwise, the next port they make. Flying.
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
I'll have to wait about a month
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
since he's coming from after the crisis event
Ptriciadactyl
makes sense!
Ptriciadactyl
she'll just have to drag him off the ship immediately the first time they get to a port after his return. In the meantime, he can keep her company when she goes hang gliding in the Enclosure. Come jump off cliffs with your sister. A family bonding activity.
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
truly! he'll be so happy to see her again
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
it's been longer for him
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Ptriciadactyl
: the kittens live in the X Mansion
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
they don't give a fuck
Ptriciadactyl
I figured! But she doesn't know that
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
oh I know, just commenting
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
why I figure the cats don't care
Ptriciadactyl
yep
Ptriciadactyl
And Taura literally never interacts with an animal in canon, but she's very good and soft and careful with kids, so I extrapolate from there.
Ptriciadactyl
one of my very favorite Taura scenes is the one where she's been so patient and gentle with a bunch of traumatized girls that they hide behind her when other people approach, despite Taura looking about 10 times scarier than anyone else in the room.
Ptriciadactyl
(I also like the fact that Taura, in uniform, ties a ridiculous pink bow around her neck because she's trying to make herself look less intimidating to children. The viewpoint character is just like, "uuuuuuh. I don't think that will make a dent, but good effort")
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
she's a good bean
Lady Stardust
it's so self-indulgent to talk to one of your characters about the other
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
Lady Stardust
: it's fun! Clark's just like '...well, at least I won't want to mash him into a paste'
Lady Stardust
yeah, that would be super awkward
FʀɪᴇɴᴅIɴYᴇʟʟᴏᴡ
at one point I had the awkward situation of 'how do I make Ardyn not try and kill Teddy'
