BTW, Felicia, in house cat form, totally needs to learn how to shoot a fireball out of the tip of her tail to see Jason's reaction =3

OMG that would be so damn funny. She can run fast enough to leave a fire trail.. lol

Don't mind me. I got lots of sleep yesterday and today, so I am in a silly mood =p

don't worry hun. Felicia still loves you.

Anthony does not say “Abracadabra” at any time for any reason.

But if you are being picked on, it will go poorly for them.

heh heh =p

 Oh I bet she will, never being in school before she will need help. Plus she is a humanoid cat.

In reply to Anthony Arkham (msg # 60):

Obviously it’s “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” as a spell word. =P

I will say that a ‘twisted’ Mary Poppins sounds like a delightful archetype.

Twenty-five percent of the transcription officially done, and I hadn't even planned on doing any today. >^.^<

Great job..... it was nice to re-read some things.

Yes, great job! We really do appreciate all the hard work you are putting into moving the game over.

Eh, it's a pretty mindless process. I just put on an OST and copy-paste things.

Mahoutsukai no Yome has such enchanting music. =^.^=

I would go nuts doing that.. omg

Oh, honey, I've done so much more tedious tasks than this in my life. >^.^<

Oh wow I did some in the Navy but my mind needs to be active.

Geez a loo! This has both been an incredibly refreshing change of pace. But I cannot believe you're doing all of this! Thanks a ton, Aeternitas!

Wouldn't that just be what happens if Tal holds Felecia?

 If you hold Felicia by the tail like that you will be getting clawed..... her claws are not nice...

Oh just to let everyone know in her house cat form I added, attractive-1 (Cuteness).

Fitting, fitting... For the holiday, we went to a friend's house for a cookout.  We met their kittens.

Squee.

Damn, I thought we would just be carrying on where we left off, I didn't think you would actually go through the effort of transcribing the backlog!


Just something Aeternitas suggested I open up the floor before I make it's made canon through play. When I originally made my character he was going to be actually fostered by the US Government itself instead of a celebrated veteran who was no longer part of the military but respected and rich enough that he could get away with building a bunker in the ass end of nowhere and training child soldiers to fight vampires, cats and russians.

In the original idea, Jason would have been sponsored by whatever department or bureau of the government knows about the supernatural and attended Rainsford on a grant and a sizeable donation to Rainsford academy.

This would have given the US gov a sizeable interest in the academy and therefore, potentially a sizeable impact on the story potentially.

Fate disliked the idea of that because it didn't fit into the narrative he had already planned for but as the story may now be going in a different direction and it hadn't already been fixed in the story I was wondering if any of you minded me going back to the original idea in which the US military have a partnership with Rainsford?

Nothing would change for Jason character wise, just a few details of his backstory.

In reply to Jason French (msg # 76):

I'd be up for that, sure. In fact I could make an adjustment to Kenzie's family as well in that case, since they could be civilian contractors of medical supplies. Let me know if it goes through :)

Unrelatedly, should I hold off on posting in Ryuai's game while Aeternitas is copying things over here, or keep going?

Meow..... Felicia sees you as a threat either way I am fine with it. The Military might know her parents.

Keep going. I can copy-paste much faster than y'all post. ^.^

Also, I've haad Jason describe this because I wanted to let him decide which specific details to spoil or not, but whether or not the military is involved with Rainsford is something I'm leaving up to a majority consensus. Some people may not wish to blatantly involve the actual military for various reasons, after all, and it wasn't part of the deal originally.

I don’t really have a vote on how Rainsford handles it, I am mostly rambling to ramifications and can be ignored largely if too detailed/irrelevant.

I think it makes sense that if there is some serious military investment into counter paranormal activity, they would focus more on international threats that may be faced by soldiers abroad, rather than investigating domestic issues (deploying troops inside the United States is actually pretty legally sticky). It might suck funding away from a more focused FBI or domestic task force, or at least force some sort of competition for limited and poorly understood money funds.

I’d imagine a military effort means that they probably would focus on fighting common physical (were-folk, Bastet-like folks, mad science constructs) or Psyops (vampires, or mind magic) threats that might be faced in the field, but not really know how to handle individualized or specialized threats.

(I suppose though, that a cult worshiping a non-US native dark deity might be sufficiently adjacent to a terrorist cell to fit, but I guess it also depends on how well funded the department is to stay up to date. Domestic cultists are probably still handled by some subdivision of the FBI and local law enforcement. )

Why I’m even thinking about this is that it might explain why the Cabot family (as American and old as the founding of the nation), and Eliza -nominally an illegal alien/body snatcher - aren’t caught and prosecuted by a government that widely understands supernatural threats. If the funding has always been military since as far back as WW2, it just might be a general blindspot.
