...did Kally just dare Mari into paying for her honeymoon?

...did Kally just dare Mari into paying for her honeymoon?

Your eyes do not deceive you, although I'd advise basically everyone else to not attempt likewise with Mari - unless your life's ambition is to become the servitor which serves her cantaloupe at brunch every other Sunday.

Work situation is improving enough that I have enough time and unburnt braincells to take cracks at it again. There is an outline for Kally and Crenshaw's honeymoon, although I'll be focusing on some other well overdue co-posts with AD - and I'm thinking the Shadows scenes, as well as Imperialist would be on the short list.

Well that was a wonderful read.

Well that was a wonderful read.

Thank you, and high honors to Dakka for the call on Kally playing Mari so well.

I am definitely looking forward to finishing the Doppel-Vis / Arcade scenes with Mari.

[Azazeal849]

I haven’t done a to-do list in a while, and for no particular reason, I’m organising this one by thread rather than writer. Enjoy! (And let me know if I’m missing any)

EDIT - And, if anyone remembers the Co-posts and Commander Scenes google doc, there is a substantial collection of Imperial Guard scenes in there that I’m not sure are ready to go or not? Inperialist WIP intro is in there also.

Oh thank god you got round to posting that paint, my past couple of days have not been good for remembering to do things. And massive props to Paintserf, because Mari is a goddamn blast to write opposite.

[PaintSerf]

And as always, Kally remains an inspiration in co-posts - and here's to many more!

Mari is indeed a fun character to write...at least when everything's going well. Otherwise? Yikes.

I had the thought of how a scene with Arcade, Zerlinda and Mari together would play out...and I still can't come down on whether it would be the best or worst thing that we would ever write. Either way, I expect Kol Media would pay a stupid amount of Thrones for the filming and broadcast rights.

Bridgette and Grace’s Getting to Know You co-post has been / is being worked on between AD and myself through PMs, and I’ll claim responsibility for its delay as it’s back in my court. It’s more or less merged with Measuring Contest (I mean…we’re obliged to do this scene) and I’d imagine it’ll be easier to post everything in Home Front, rather than split them as they’ll be strongly linked.

In regards to my solo scenes with the Legion (Crenshaw listening in on the Divs/delivering terms of surrender – Gerry meeting Reider/handing over ‘Beloved’ to Janie – Bunch of Quintana and Buford) I’d think they’ll have to stay WIP and be relegated to being finished off once Reckoning wraps. Not to say that there’s stuff that wouldn’t be interesting…but nothing that can’t be referenced elsewhere.

The Cadians/Sarusians-Legion scenes aren’t going anywhere with Jarms On Leave(?) at the moment.

Imperialist definitely is on the short-list of scenes TO-DO.

Saph aboard Impiger (and the other related scenes / touch-up of existing scenes) is something I would like to do, given the importance of those relationship scenes for her arc…however there’s some of her most impactful scenes that have to be done sooner rather than later for C2.

[Jarms48]

I'm still here. I've just been writing more Home Front stuff cause I didn't know what else I was suppose to be doing. Az's comment helps.

Officers’ mess, hive Alda green zone. Two days prior to the Auto-Da-Fe

Is this a combined mess for all ground officers? Edit: Must be right? Minch, Quintana and Antheia are there.

Some of the Cadian Lt's could come to Janie's aid?
