[tlv] plot with me for may..............
فك يو
still bad at pre-plotting, but i'm trying to get better at doing these CR-discussing things because i do love discussing CR!
فك يو
misty is pleased with herself for maybe?? handling the memories flood well??? she thinks???????
فك يو
she wasn't particularly fazed by this one
Mouth Powers
Jedao is not at all his best self rn but he is proud of her for doing an infosec
فك يو
shaw fucking hated it, but may is a port month so she'll detonate with relief about being able to leave the ship and do her goddamn best to stay off it until it departs
فك يو
Mouth Powers
she is trying very hard to do a respectful infosec!!

I laughed at Fitz just going "whatever, I don't need my memories back this week"
Ptriciadactyl
not everyone appreciates her infosec, but this is at least better than previous approaches
فك يو
she was so annoyed at fitz lmao
Mrs Sheepie
she's learning some degree of subtlety! the babiest of steps
فك يو
please! work! with! her!
فك يو
she also had a good talk with natalie about how a year ago (or even six months ago) she would have been super into this flood because it would have let her learn people's secrets (that she could then attempt to use as an in to force closeness if she felt so inclined), but now the bigger draw is gaining a better understanding of people's perspectives

MISTY THATS SUCH A GOOD PERSPECTIVE. Pagan is proud

when your natural empathy abilities are in the toilet you have to take what you can get
cacopheny
B will happily hang out with Shaw off-ship if it's a port amenable to such things!
Kota
It's progress, dammit
Amy
excited for Will and Shaw shenanigans

Well...shenanigans for Will, work for Shaw >_>

maybe she'll be happy enough to let him swing-dance her 
فك يو
Amy
same
فك يو
she's going to be so relieved to be paired, too. a permapair and a port! the first good month!
anstaar
fitz just like, yolmc (you only lose memories constantly)
فك يو
fitz this is concerning, you should be concerned
anstaar
fitz, on learning his best friend has suppressed almost his memories: honest, seems cool to me. the sexy way to deal with trauma.
anstaar
maybe therapists would be more popular (with him, specifically) if they removed memories!!!

Maybe this time their port shenanigans won't involve crime! Maybe

Also congrats to shaw!!!!!

And to will!!!

and tbh if crime is in any way possible i suspect misty and natalie will find a way to do it
3D🌺triangle.
I mean, yeah lmao
floofdoodle
Shaw is getting permapaired to Will?
Amy
It's true! We decided it yesterday. >_>
Kira🌵
on average they have a normal amount of empathy! love it
floofdoodle
OH NO
floofdoodle
But also congrats to both of them! (I see Shaw did get her pick of the litter 
)
)
floofdoodle
They're such a great pair
Amy
hehehe...she did, I suppose. XD And they DO average each other out a bit.
floofdoodle
It's a great balance. And maybe he can teach her about empathy and how to connect to people. Symbiotic and shit
cacopheny
he will SO HAPPILY teach her more swing dancing
فك يو
floofdoodle
anything more would probably require literal brain chemistry rewiring, but will can certainly help her practice!
فك يو
cacopheny
alas she will never suggest it, but i'm determined to make it happen. she definitely knows a bit of fancy and/or older-style dancing even if it's not her preference
Amy
And if nothing else, Will can be an empathy translator when necessary!
فك يو
she appreciates
فك يو
she's better than she used to be! ... and then a little worse again due to trauma and grief, but
فك يو
there's certainly room for more practice and improvement even if it'll never come naturally to her
floofdoodle
Sounds like a good second Deal to make. Get rewired
floofdoodle
Just choose to be better, right? That's how it works?
فك يو
god i think she would get so annoyed if anyone even suggested it tbh
cacopheny
if there is some situation in the port that makes it possible B would suggest it, himself. come dance with him, Sameen
فك يو
she would call him a nerd and then do it
فك يو
an inmate! a port! i get to break out the real smile icons again!
cacopheny
he is a nerd, he won't deny it. he read the Hobbit when it first came out in Britain while he lived in New York. somehow.
فك يو
she's a nerd too, just for uh. guns
cacopheny
well, he can be a nerd for guns, too. he kept his rifle, after all, even though he never wanted to use it again
cacopheny
(it's soothing sometimes to take it apart, clean it, and put it back together)
فك يو
he gets it
