plotting

[somanyopinions]

Hi hi, all!

So, I am finally getting around to writing Anne's debut, and I wanted to touch base to see how everyone felt about it. I'm not 100% certain how I plan to do it, but I'd really like to have Anne exit from the end of the last episode (2x08). (It's such a pity Constance won't be around until next month, but I don't want to wait any longer than I already have!)

I know the boys all come from different points, and obviously what went down with Rochefort is a very big deal, so I just wanted to see how everyone felt about it — I don't want to step on toes or screw up plans.

I was also thinking we might be able to use Anne's debut as a sort of private multi-thread post? Not necessarily like an open post in the main comm, but where if more than one of you want to take part, there could be natural offshoot threads where, say, two characters step aside to talk or go somewhere else. (This opposed to having to take turns forever, which can take such a long time and end up tedious.)

What do you think?

I am totes cool with all of that - This last ep was amaaaazing, so. This sounds like a great idea.

[somanyopinions]

Needless to say, she'll be VERY upset. And I'm thinking that the primary issue (apart from the obvious) will be that she won't have the Dauphin and going back for him will be so risky. So that should be fun. :D

[averygoodshot]

babby!! Yeah, if she fills Aramis in on all the sh*t that hit the fan in this ep, it will get dramatic really, really fast. Whoo!

I guess we'll just start with Aramis and see how it goes?

Also, I'm getting ready to go to sleep, so that'll be it for me tonight!

[somanyopinions]

I'm sure you noticed, Athos has tagged in; you guys can go ahead and thread for a bit, and I'll just keep an eye on it? If you need/want me to jump in, I can.

[averygoodshot]

Athos and Aramis are ready for you! I can step back and let you two tag for a bit if that helps!

[somanyopinions]

Sorry, life got crazy. I'll go ahead and tag Athos; if you wanted to have Porthos or d'Artagnan find them and talk to Aramis in a separate branch of that same thread, that might speed things up for you a bit?

[armedagainstlove]

Athos is still set at 1x05, so he's going to be very beyond everything, but he's about to take a jump to the end of S1 pretty soon, so he'll at least know about the indiscretions. He knows of Rochefort in general, though, so he can still interact and be aware of who she's talking about.

I'm definitely for anything!

[somanyopinions]

1x05? Good god. XD IDK how you resist jumping forward.

[armedagainstlove]

He is a slightly miserable bunny versus a bunny who knows far, far too much for his own well-being. Eventually he will get some updates, but he's not as burdened as he could be ... yet.

[temperamentalsteel]

Oops, misread the comment but yes! :D super excited for Anne, though I'm currently an episode behind. I've been waiting for some of d'Artagnan's other threads to wrap up before I post him again, having been updated to 2x06.

[praiseandglory]

Hey! I need to update Porthos some time soon, but I don't wanna jump ahead too quickly, so yeah he'll still be way behind. But I am ALL FOR THIS. Let me know when you want Porthos for anything really, for now I'll just be over there tracking the thread between Aramis and Anne and cheering. :D

[praiseandglory]

Oh my god, you guys, I am enjoying reading this post SO MUCH. ARAMIS. I'm giggling to myself right now.

[averygoodshot]

You laugh at Aramis's angst????

No, but seriously, he kinda deserves it XD

[praiseandglory]

To be perfectly honest, I was right there with the angst when it was him and Anne (all the feeeeels, seriously), but then he's talking to Athos and I'm just... giggling. Idek. :D

[averygoodshot]

[praiseandglory]

That, exactly. :D <3

[somanyopinions]

I cannot WAIT until everybody gets in the mix. :D

[praiseandglory]

Me. Neither. :D Just let me know when you're ready for my boy. :D :D :D

[averygoodshot]

Would you want to have Porthos arrive and Aramis and he can have what might be a tense chat while Anne and Athos talk?

[praiseandglory]

Yessssss!

I mean. If you'd like. ;)

And he'll be a guy again if only to spare Anne that particular mindfrak!

Shall I do a new top-level, or tag underneath Anne and we'll split off in two threads there?

[somanyopinions]

(Sorry for jumping in!)

If you could just reply directly to Aramis' last tag, that would be perfect. :)

[praiseandglory]

(Yes, how dare you organise your own post. :p)

Will do! <3

[praiseandglory]

Oh my god VENUS was that a mirage where did you GO.

[averygoodshot]

Hush, you. (though Venus and Porthos works in my mind XD)

[praiseandglory]

LOLOLOL I think you just broke my brain. And my inner Tig isn't looking too happy either. <3

[averygoodshot]

YOU HAVE A TIG??? Oh, man.

[praiseandglory]

I've never actually played him anywhere because a lot of games make it hard on characters with sociopathic tendencies who tend to say the least PC stuff ever, but... yes. >.> :)
