they're moll's friend, i think we can trust them! we're playing a friendly game anyway. answer honestly and ask the same in return

We have the cutiest two TCPs! a Clutter(group of spiders) type, and a Marimo type! It's hard to make sure we respect their personhood, and can be a good God for them, but they deserve the world. What about you?

SOMBROUS: Also! We actually share a type with Moll so hopefully that means we're good at strategy?

LIMESTONE: Well, not necessarily I wouldn't say. Moll's great at this game, don't get me wrong but... it doesn't have much to do with the types she picks so much as how she uses 'em. In general this game rewards creativity, so you can win with pretty much any team so long as you're resourceful enough to make it work. That make sense?

SOMBROUS: Oh.... Yeah, I guess so.

LIMESTONE: Not sayin' it's a bad thing either though! It's just if you rely on "good" TCP types as your only strategy you're gonna get knocked out of any violent game REAL fast.

SOMBROUS: That makes sense...

we're trying to avoid a violent game as much as possible, but we get that we may not have a choice in the matter. Any advice if worse comes to worst?

The idea of having to make our cats fight is horrifying. I don't want it to come to that. I know it's naïve, but I really hope we can all be friends. or at least people who tolerate each other without the threat of violence.

do the games you guys have been in get violent often?

U know maybe we shouldn't just say what type our tcp are to strangers i mean they didn't even said which types are they tcp

You feel a pang of regret over sharing your TCPs' types so freely but you push it aside again. Maybe you'll be more careful next time but for now, what's done is done. What worries you most right now is what Limestone is implying... will you really have to fight?

LIMESTONE: It kind of depends on who you're playing with but generally it only takes one player to turn a game violent versus the five whole players cooperating that you need to get a fully peaceful one. Not to say they don't happen but the odds are kind of against it.
LIMESTONE: Also... they don't have to be trying to kill your cats to be hostile. One of the worst games I've lost, not a single cat on my team died. And it wasn't my fault either!
 
It shudders.
talking to: LIMESTONE Wrote:LIMESTONE: I don't like thinking about that one...

SOMBROUS: Yikes, I'm sorry Limestone. That sounds... really hard.
SOMBROUS: Um, do you have any advice for if worst comes to worst?

LIMESTONE: If worst comes to worst, Moll and I will protect you from the other players. Just don't fuck it up. You can learn how to play once your life isn't on the line.
 
You don't know how to respond to this. Are-are they joking? They're joking, right? But it sounds serious...

I'm... not sure how we're supposed to "not fuck it up" if I barely know what I'm doing. I know probably the last thing you wanna do right now is hand-hold a newbie throughout this whole process, but you're going to have to tell me what to avoid, what not to do, and so what. If the likelihood is that we'll have a violent session we have to start preparing now, right?
So really, I really need to know. Do you have any advice for if worst comes to worst? Actual advice. I want to be more than a liability to the team.

So this whole game, its kinda like being a mayor or a leader. You can't protect your TCPs from everything. You can only really prepare them. I'm worried that our cats might have some trouble, this is a lot for us to take in. I'm worried we aren't strong enough ourselves to support them through this.

Do we have to prepare? I don't like the idea of giving our TCPs weopons or combat training or something. I- I just don't know what to do, I think I can try following your and Moll's lead, Limestone
Reply
We should hope for a passive run but prepare anyways if things go sour and we end up in a war or something. Maybe only use force if necessary or plan on BIG defenses and pacifying methods.

Limestone seems a bit uncomfortable. You don’t think it was expecting this outburst of emotion.
 
talking to: LIMESTONE Wrote:LIMESTONE: ...Yeah. Sorry, this whole thing kind of sucks-
 
You cut them off without meaning too, words and feelings still spilling from your mouth.

LIMESTONE: I-Okay, yeah, I can work with that. You have to promise though- if I tell you to take your TCPs and hide, you’ll listen. Got it?

SOMBROUS: Got it.

LIMESTOME: So what are you thinking of for your set-up so far?

SOMBROUS: We’re hoping for a passive run but I think we should um, still prepare for the worst anyway. Maybe only use force if necessary or plan big defenses and pacifying methods?
 
Limestone nods.
 
talking to: LIMESTONE Wrote:LIMESTONE: Sounds good to me. Obviously you don’t want to go too big since then you’ll look like a threat but you don’t want to look helpless either. A healthy balance is best.
LIMESTONE: Do you have any other questions? I should probably go soon, can't sit around chatting all day, you know.

What types of TCPs do you have so far Limestone? We already told you ours, so it's only fair if we learn about yours too.

You think for a moment about what questions you might still have but only come up with one thing that feels like it can't wait.

LIMESTONE: Okay so for my first type you've gotta promise not to freak out cause it isn't what it sounds like. So, there's this planet called Earth where the majority of my collective consciousness is from and they also have the concept of "angels" but they're made up, debatably, and also not anything like Morbitian angels so, yes I did spawn an angel type but don't think of it as an angel it's-

SOMBROUS: I- Limestone, I know what angels are.

LIMESTONE: Huh?

SOMBROUS: I'm from Earth too. Why are people on Morbit afraid of angels?

LIMESTONE: They're fucked up here.

SOMBROUS: Huh?

LIMESTONE: They're just- They're just real fucked up.

SOMBROUS: O-Okay.

LIMESTONE: Anyway, my other TCP is a sunflower type.

SOMBROUS: Cool!

LIMESTONE: Aaaand, I gotta go. Seeya later.

SOMBROUS: Well... bye!

LIMESTONE: Bye!

Limestone has left the call. Now what?

Let's check in on Alto and Tenor and see what they've been up to while we were on call!

You decide to check in on the kitties to see what they've been up to while you were talking with Limestone.

[Image: panel_88.png]

You tell Alto and Tenor you're off call with Limestone now. They are curious, asking about Limestone was like. You think for moment, then say something along the lines of "a bit strange, but well-intentioned." The two are satisfied with that brief explanation, as it seems they have a proposal for you.

[Image: panel_89.png]

The twosome enthusiastically explain that Gumby has been telling them about adventures; journeying away from the base and into the unknown. This sounds like the coolest idea ever to them, and they'd really like to go with. They'll even be careful, Alto promises. So please, can they?

Absolutely! They have our blessing.

They may want shoes if they're going on a journey, lets give them a crocs catalogue so they can pick some out
