Hey, registereds have a huge base of NPC allies and support personnel to fall back on. That's a big, big, big advantage. It only makes sense to undermine it every now and then by invoking bureaucracy.
Charlie Stross's cheerful, optimistic predictions for 2017, part one of three.Well, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to end the night here. Gives everyone a fresh start and it allows for everyone to continue their stories, while intersecting with other characters. Certainly, I'll be doing that for registered. (Quick note, I'll randomly appear at the scene, don't worry, there will be an explanation for it)
Hello again tropersIf anyone's confused by my latest post of Bomber's Moon lyrics...yeah, I clicked on the wrong tab. Sorry. It's been edited.
In any case, though, I promise there's going to be more to this date than soap-opera blushing at each other. The extra time delay potentially allows some of the unregistereds to get into the action, but they'll have to have heard about it from elsewhere—i.e., not from the police information exchange.
Charlie Stross's cheerful, optimistic predictions for 2017, part one of three.Well, I'm not complaining about the drama cheese. It makes Fogata look so much more mature in comparison to the registered, after all.
Incidentally, it just occurred to me that the only major fight between supers so far was Fogata vs. Red Cap. I'm curious to see if you can come up with a little more action for this story arc.
5 to 6ish sounds about right, yes. I've actually gone and checked the sunrise/sunset calendar for NYC. Assuming it's the start of the month, the sun won't set until well after 7PM.

"You've got your transmission and your live wire, but your circuit's dead." - MediaBy all means, go ahead. It's much funnier if the "first date" was punctuated by rogue supers running around to save the day.

Nothing out of the ordinary in the city of New Terrin...

Give the world the best you have and you will get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.With her seeing stuff like that, it must be a conspiracy!
So...we're going to turn into the superhero equivalent of Deus Ex?
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Cygan ate it. I don't know the details of her digestive system, so no telling when we'll get it back.
Anyway, we need appropriate music for our new improved plot. And it's kind of hard to top the original Deus Ex in this regard, so...
Bit by bit, I will build your RP soundtrack!
...Mmmm... At this point I'm going to assume that he's not coming back... Ugh, now I have to write Lyna and Romana out of that cafe, and after all this time waiting I'm not sure if I can get into character for them all that quickly. >.< Guess I'll leave it until tomorrow, but... Gah.
Sorry about all that, really. >.<

I think Doppler shoud be more worried that the Espers can hear what Alyson is thinking.
After all, she's completely untrained in mental defense.
