What would happen if her parts were removed for maintenance? Would she be able to move her consciousness from part to part? And would it remain if said part were used to power a more mobile mechanical device?

No matter how he'd have phrased the suggestion, the metaphysical implications would have been the same. If he'd not been up front with it and forced her to do it instead, then she'd likely just end up severely pissed off.

The point I'm making is that there is no way to make this decision in any way palatable to her if we intend to go through with it.

While no mention is specifically made that you are required to bellow "FAL-CON PAWNCH!!" on every hit, this kind of thing goes without saying.

Anyway, Axes, how do you propose I resolve this? Should I rewrite the post?

When I came up with the idea, it was more akin to 'remote-control', rather than 'carve a piece of your soul out and stick it in a freakish metal puppet' (hyperbole, I know). So yeah, if you could re-write it, that would be better.

Alright, my bad, then. Non-creepy-Evangelion-shit-mode is go, rewriting.

[up][up][up] I nearly fell of my chair reading that. All is forgiven.

[up][up] Care to explain in a lucid fashion (provided you aren't actually about to plunge to your death)?

On a completely different note, I was wondering if anybody here would be interested in a Homestuck RP that I'm going to be running. It's a reboot of SBURG, which has lost two many players to continue as is, but has at least too people dedicated enough to float a new RP, provided we can collect a few more. Since you guys are mostly: A)Homestuck fans, and B) Extremely good and dedicated roleplayers, I thought I'd ask here before I posted the sign-up.

With a cellphone. I've talked to you guys before while hiking, whenever we stopped for breath.

Consider me interested, Axes. Be advised, I'm expecting a visitor, so that edit likely won't be up immediately. And Colonial, please tell me you're just admiring the view or something and not about to plunge to your doom?

Neat. Unfortunately I lack any sort of internet-worthy phone (amusingly, I forgot for over a year I even possessed a phone at all).

How long are you hiking for?

Two or Three miles, I think. Turns out that cliffface wasn't actually prt of the trail. In the woods now.

Well, hope you enjoy it (don't fall off any cliffs)!

@Axes re Homestuck: Hmmm, interesting...though I fear my schedule is somewhat limited lately. Though, as long as it doesn't move any faster than any of the other RP Gs I've got going on at the moment (well, save for the WAOA, but that one's crazy), I could try it out.
