001: Group Introductions - TEXT

[tarnishedavenger]

[During a lull in the party, Armstrong taps out a quick message to the network. Not that private one, he doesn't trust it. They can answer whenever they like, so long as he gets an answer. The trick would be wording it.]

So, we're all in this for now. You've had your welcome cake, but you can't meet everyone in a party, no matter how hard you try. But, since we've all been encouraged to sign up with Jorgmund, I figured now would be a good time to get some introductions done. Talk about any specialties we might have.

Share information that we feel comfortable sharing. This isn't to pressure anyone or to force out any dark secrets.

[Not where watchful eyes can see, at least.]

Besides, I prefer doing this to making a cute information sharing game.

So, please, make your own threads within this post to keep everything organized.

[They're stuck in this together, he's not currently doing anything evil, and it's not the first time she's talked shop with a villain. She can gloss over it for now. Unless he actually does something evil, in which case she'll come down on him like a sack of bricks. Possibly with a machine that tosses sacks of bricks.]

Jet engines are a little difficult at my size. Especially with the materials I usually work with. I did build a rocket capable of reaching orbit out of a trashcan once.

And one submarine, two submersibles. They were full-sized by my standards, but they probably wouldn't be full-sized by your standards.

[Yeah, they are kind of treading on neutral ground here, so it probably won't come to that. For the moment, if he did come up with any "evil plots" they would likely be aimed at their mutual enemy.]

Wait...what?

[The size thing manages to throw him a bit, even more than the idea of building a rocket out of a trash can. Enough that he actually bothers to go click on her intro video to see if there's some context for that. And boy is there ever!]

holy shit, you're a mouse.

[Like she didn't already know that.]

okay, probably a weird question here, but are all animals in your universe sapient? just you and your buddies? or is this a 'flowers for algernon' situation?

The first one, but humans normally can't understand us. I've run into a couple of exceptions once or twice, but for the most part you guys have no idea what we're saying.

well, that's a horrifying combination.

[Now he really hopes that's not the case in his universe.]

here's to hoping your universe has more vegans than not.
