gray leather handbag tied with a bit of rope.
Meiari muses, "Ya know, that makes sense. Does that mean we get truffles from Vandago?"
Rambling claims, "They are also #1 in science and technology and will get to space before Hillish
(marginally)"
Scarry says, "First of all, sorry. Easter break is surprisingly hectic with 3 kids while I am in the
malaise of my country backsliding into nonsense and the potential of a new pope undoing all of
Francis's work. So I haven't been around. I feel bad."
Temi asks, "I think we've got about everyone. Karrin had some RL plans today. Do we have any
volunteers for scribe?"

Meiari states, "It's okay Scarry, you're rl is about to become TI too"

Scarry says, "Must be something in the ritzie seltzer water"
Temi states, "I think we could all do with less crazy"
Temi queries, "Anyway! So, agenda for today: 1) staff updates, 2) player heartbeat, 3) player
topics. Anyone have topics to get on the list now?"
PositronicJune trails off, "I do have a quick question. About when will PCs start going to the
frontline? ...assuming that's even happening"
Brenier says, "Excellent question, I've been wondering that."
Temi says, "There's some choices to be made from players coming up, really"
Temi states, "No guarantees what will or won't be happening, or how quickly it will move. I will
say if we do frontline battle, we'll try to keep it to like an individual weekend event or
something, rather than an extended off-grid affair"
Temi states, "I will make sure to give at least a couple weeks before such an event though, so folks
can plan ahead"
Musketeer claims, "Gotta love connection imploding when leaving work, sorry bout that folks."
Temi wonders, "How long do you guys need to make weekend plans, generally?"
Temi comforts Musketeer.
Musketeer sobs quietly. Boohoohoo.
Meiari states, "From my experience most people seem to be pretty open to spontaneous weekend events,
but I do try to give a week or two ooc (like council meetings and stuff) but I also have been trying
to schedule around ooc meeting cause we all voted on that for the most part"
Brenier claims, "I work on weekends, but if I'm not called into the office I can handle it during
wfh easily enough with little notice."
Sparkles claims, "My only slight concern is how far out, IE if we end up hitting July. But, alas."
Scarry says, "I think anything about the war is up in the air rn due to urrent political events]"
Meiari sticks tongue out at summer events.
Temi says, "Okey dokey. Sounds pretty flexible. And I'll keep that in mind about summer being
potentially difficult"
Temi grins.
Temi claims, "I'll have some camping and outings this summer as well"
Temi nods in agreement with Scarry.
Meiari says, "I'm not gonna lie RL and TI time often confuses the heck out of my dyslexic little
mind. With it snowing in game I forgot summer was coming irl"
Temi says, "I mean, it's not imminently coming. We still have more than a month"
Temi states, "But yeah, I sometimes have that dysphoria with TI time of the year"
Meiari claims, "Close enough lol"
Sparkles claims, "Lithmore clearly operates on Midwestern weather."
PositronicJune questions, "...dysphoria?"
PositronicJune claims, "Yeah I sometimes mix it up for brief moments"
Temi claims, "Anyways though - my update has been pretty much big plot. Hopefully folks are still
enjoying themselves, I know this is a big one. You can also let me know if you want me to slow it
down for a couple weeks to give more time for other plans."
Temi has transferred Capitalism. [OOC]
Scarry says, "I like the direction where this went."
Temi gives a sparkling snowflake charm fashioned from Vandagan crystal to Capitalism.
Meiari says, "I've been having a good time with it. I mean my poor charrie IC is losing her mind -
but me as the player have been having a great time screaming into the void about it."
Temi grins at Meiari.
Temi claims, "That's exactly what I love to hear. We can drive all of our characters crazy"
Temi claims, "As long as the players are enjoying the crazy"
Meiari states, "It's opened a lot of interesting lines of conversation which I've enjoyed.
Especially given my RL major"
Temi grins.
Temi states, "Excellent"
Temi asks, "Alright, that's a natural segue into player heartbeat. How's RP been this week?"
ThatBard claims, "We are rapidly going towards 'TI: Legacy Oops all treason edtion' XD"
Scarry says, "I... Well. Yeah. I already said mine, I guess. Still, very sorry I have been absent"
Meiari laughs.
Pippa says, "Good good, I'm excited about personal progress myself"
Brenier states, "It's been fun! Work finally relented for me which gave me a lot more time to RP
again, thankfully."
Temi pontificates to Brenier, "Yay work behaving itself!"
Meiari says, "I've seen/heard of growth of different people's characters and also had some good plot
developments. I couldn't be happier :3"
Brenier rolls his eyes and nods.
Ikeala states, "I admit I've mostly just been letting the Muggles fight amongst themselves for this
one. But I do show up to give a spook to give them something else to think about occassionally."
Meiari squints at Ikeala.
Ikeala razzle dazzles.
Temi claims, "As long as you're happy with that. Don't need everyone involved in everything"
Scarry claims, "I also need to work on my personal plot and catch up and uueegh. Inertia."
Temi nods at Scarry.
Temi declaims, "Once life gives you the chance, I'm sure!"
Temi muses, "Alright, anything bothering folks that staff ought to know about?"
Scarry claims, "I mean I hope to get rekindled today actually, I got something planned for after the
ooc meeting."
Temi declares, "Excellent! Good luck with that"
Temi queries, "Doesn't sound like any botherings then. Anyone thought of any topics that they want
to include?"
Meiari shakes head.
InvestSouthside wonders, "I had a general inquiry, Merchants ran a plot for the siege specialist.
Are we gonna do an npc for that for making things or are we going to hand wave that to plots?""
InvestSouthside's opportunity to accept the Personal Event has expired.
Meiari claims, "Oh yeah"
Temi questions, "I'd assume probably in plots, unless you're expecting to need siege weaponry here?
Or what sort of stuff are you expecting from an NPC?"
Sparkles states, "I think it got mentioned at some point and so people weren't certain if he'd be
like the camp and collect wood or such."
Temi claims, "If you want a separate npc to collect war supplies, I could do that, I imagine"
Meiari finishes abruptly, "I guess that would depend on what's easier for staff and player base -
submitting it in a plot or giving it to an npc"
InvestSouthside claims, "I didnt have an expectation perse just a general question and yeah like
meiari said."
Sparkles claims, "The only advantage of the NPC is items that are too big to be put into boxes can
get crazy on the plot action."
Temi states, "The only concern I'd have about an NPC would be deciding what to do with it if it's
not tied to a specific person's determination, but I could probably put that on the
Seneschal/Council if you wanted. If there's differences in opinion coming up, it could make a
difference"
Musketeer is idle.
Meiari measures hands like a scale, "Well... -hopefully- that is something that will be answered
shortly with the upcoming meeting? Maybe?"
Temi grins.
Temi asks, "Maybe! How about you let me know next week?"
Meiari says, "We can definitely follow up haha"
Temi wonders, "Alrighty! Anything else anyone wants to go over?"
Pippa sneezes loudly.
Temi questions, "Not hearing anything. Back to the grid with you all then?"
InvestSouthside states, "Weeee back to the grid"
Meiari does the seaweed dance from Black Butler.
Aymeric declaims, "I'm good!"
Temi exclaims, "Alrighty, forth to RP with you all!"
