Argh.

I'm having idea overload. Little things flickering into my mind and disappearing too quickly to be captured. I want to write, I want to GM, I want to get out of the house, I want to go, go, go. Feh. I want to write a Harriet-fic, but I keep running into a problem: she's not a very fic-worthy character. I like her and all, but she is what she is, and the way she deals with things doesn't tend to be very drama-worthy. Eh. Maybe I can think of something that I'd actually /want/ to put down on paper.

Other character ideas are flitting through my head, including one that I'm seriously considering running with in some campaign or another.

In RL stuff, I actually spent some time with my father tonight which didn't end with an argument, disaster, or a vague feeling of the need to commit homicide. So life is good. Still no car, of course. Ooh! And

cpip reminded me of Something Cool that I'd almost forgotten about, today: The Voynich Manuscript.

It is the neat. I was going to use it as props in a CoC campaign once upon a blue moon, but alas.

Any sharp, pointy objects getting used?

MMmmm...sharp 'n pointy...

Not yet, though. But it's an option. Maybe I should make a sharp 'n pointy McGuffin for my next campaign. Players tend to enjoy chasing after Big Nasty Weapons.

And thusly do I steal the idea of the Voynich for use in my own diabolical plot. ;)

Thanks, lady fair.

Harriet is so a fic-worthy character!! But if you (like me) do the angsty stuff best, then she might be difficult to write. :) How 'bout thinking back to when she first was told about The War? Hmm. Fragments of her diary, commenting on strange stuff leading up to The Talk? Then The Talk? The meeting with Eli and the hilarities that ensued?

And besides, she does have some angst: Lucius!

Lu has never been Angsty. He's done his best to avoid any sort of Angst for Poor H...

Oh, hells, even with Balseraph Resonance on full, I can't type that with a straight face... ;)

*grins* Some Lies are /so/ implausible that not even the Bal resonance can support them? *scritches Lucius* One day, one day...

True! This one was so far out that even Seraphim wouldn't have reacted. It's pure fiction, and they deal quite well with that! :) :)

Actually, I like doing epic, action-adventurey, fights-and-SFX sort of stuff the best. Which, you have to admit, Harriet is not a good main character for. Especially in IN, where she is one extremely short step up from cannon fodder.

Angst, the woman has, in spades. ;p

Uhm yes. Yes, I see what you mean. Harriet isn't exactly combat heavy. BUT! Give her an extra Corp force or two, add it all to Strenght, add NC: Claws, Tail, Fangs, Acid, Whatever -- and the lady could do some serious damage! :)

The thought of Combat Harriet is just wrong! WRONG with wrongness.

*giggles* C'mon, don't we /all/ want to see Harriet with 8 Strength, the Malakite of Creation attunement, and a pan of freshly made muffins?

*hops up and down*

We do! We do! We do! XD

Zach'd probably donate the effin' Force to make sure she could...

Oooooh, there's an idea. Harriet with a Malakite Force running around in her soul. That'd just be...neat. ;P

That...would be awesome. Hey, we need to talk to Eli! :)

...or how about a Laurenc-force? Eh? Eh?? :)
