Gathering help and cameos for an interlude by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-08 10:17:00 UTC Reply

So, I am writing an interlude (still WIP) for my Agents, and I need a little help.

- Characterization check on Techno-Dann and the NPCs. I don't want to get them wrong.
- Beta, as usual.
- Maybe a little cooperation with Astral Void for the part in which my Agents and hers are going to met. The best way to get right an Agent with few appearances yet is to have his/her author write him.
- I will accept other cameo requests If I see a way to fit them in.

Here's the link:

I'll totally help, I'm just not quite sure how to. Basically:

1: Will Grace and Ally meet Sergio and Corolla in the Armoury or somewhere else?

2. How exactly are we going to write the ensuing conversation?

3. If we write it separately, where do I put my bit when I'm done?

My idea was that they "crashed into hello" when Sergio and Corolla exit from DoSAT. Maybe Grace was trying to sneak into DoSAT to er... borrow some pieces for something she was building, maybe something else, your call here. Grace notices the planes Sergio has in the box that inevitably fell and opened itself, and they start talking about that.

Since I noticed that you write on the Board in "decent" hours, I thought we could cooperate through Googledocs. It has the support for multiple people writing and a built-in chat, so we can decide when (using GMT as reference. I'm from Italy, GMT+1, but you're probably from a different time zone) and write together. The link is in the main post, and you don't need a Gdocs account, so we can say that everything's ready.

All right, I'll see what I can do. I probably won't be online much over the next couple of days, but I'll see.

Being in summer vacation, any day between GMT 13 and 22? (nm) by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-10 09:45:00 UTC Reply

OK, so... by Astral Void on 2011-09-13 11:40:00 UTC Reply

I've written the bit where Ally and Grace go to DoSAT and crash into Sergio and Corolla. Can I just add it to the GoogleDocs document?

Sure. Post it, I'll handle the "welding" (nm) by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-13 13:10:00 UTC Reply

I'd be willing to beta, by Pretzel on 2011-09-08 21:22:00 UTC Reply

and you're more than welcome to use Ian and Lee, if you like, but not for the chasing scene.

Thank you by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-09 10:06:00 UTC Reply

There was no need to explain that, obviously I want to have an explicit approval for the chase scene, as I think very few Agents would be able to get away with this "evil" act (even if it's a sincere mistake). Probably I will end up using a couple of Generic Agents anyways.

By the way, I think Ian and Lee are perfect tu be used as Armoury customers, as they often use two-hands firearms.

Cool beans. by Pretzel on 2011-09-09 10:14:00 UTC Reply

Yeah; Lee probably needs a new gun. One with preferably more stopping power than the one she has.

I can see a discussion between Lee and Sergio incoming. by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-09 10:47:00 UTC Reply

He too owns a Beretta 92FS, but he actually won't change it for anything else, as he thinks more stopping power isn't useful if you have much less bullets in the magazine. He actually uses magazines from the Max Payne continuum - 18 round per clip. As usually .45 pistols don't get past 12-13, he thinks he has an advantage.

And today I keep doing stupid typos. (nm) by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-09 10:07:00 UTC Reply

I volunteer my agents for cameos by Firebird766 on 2011-09-08 15:49:00 UTC Reply

Chalk and Jenka are available for use. If you want your agents to get assaulted by a hyperactive girl, Chalk would be happy to oblige. Jenka would likely be there to keep Chalk from getting into too much trouble.
Sounds interesting... by OpinionedAngel on 2011-09-08 15:17:00 UTC Reply

I just got Permission a while back, can I join in? What's the background details, anyway?

Here's the basic plot by Sergio Turbo on 2011-09-08 19:08:00 UTC Reply

Sergio and Corolla get out from DoSAT (what happened there has been already written) meet some people in the corridors, go to the Armoury to stock up on weapons and ammo (and sell some of the extra F-22s they got from the mission), then run into a new Agent of mine, that fell into a plothole but was chased after due to being a badfic clone of a canon character and thus mistaken for a Replacement!Sue. The story I found her in was actually on the borderline between good and bad, got her characterization wrong, but acted in a coherent way for the new personality, thus becoming a OC in her own right rather than a OOC canon or a Replacement!Sue)

So, basically I need a few people to put into the corridors and the Armoury, and less generic Agents I use best is for overall "we're all in the same place" feeling. So, I'm going to give mostly "there's a [Agent X's description] agent over there arguing with [Agent Y description]" cameos, but if anyone comes up with a funny idea involving his Agents I'll drop that in.

Oh, almost forgot: someone willing to have his Agents chase not-yet-Agent Nikki only to be explained (at gonpoint) that she is not a Sue? I can use Generics, but having to wrestle down a nearly-snapped Agent could be funny.

Well, if you like by gaijinguy on 2011-09-09 13:22:00 UTC Reply

I've already established a plot point about Kirill being persona non grata at the armory due to his tendency to requisition ridiculous stuff. If you want to use him, feel free.
