:)  Always fun to explore the net time to time, but 10% of the schools browsing, nice. 

 

I am through to chapter Chapter 3, still very good. Not sure I will get to finish by time I leave, since I am at work. :)

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Nice Cat, I like that. I ran out of likes so couldnt like yet.

 

Well, considering how often I refresh sites, or look on new ones if something changed... I don't know, it could be ten percent.

 

Glad you like it... I'll try to write the next one ASAP then. If school won't keep me away from it. Or work. Or my laziness.

 

Excuses, yay!

 

Still recovering from that fic, jesus.

 

Who isn't.

I woke up at 2 AM and decided to pass time reading BC's fic until the sleepiness hits...it never did :P

Uh, that reverses the wish to sleep, or in my case work. :P

 To add to this conversation: this seems pretty suggestive.

 

Well that's just...

 

Maybe I'll only bother with the one state after all.

I don't have tend to have multiple playthroughs on the go at once, so I'll just set up a new world state every time I start a new game. It's a pretty short job, really.

It's more that it upsets my perfectionism and constant pursuit of elegance than a serious objection. It's not a huge deal to swap states, though I have enough narrative dissonance from multiple saves anyway to just not be that interested if it isn't smooth.

You can make various world states, but the one you "export" is the one the game will use. It's a bit like a gun, you have your magazine full of bullets, but there's only one bullet ready to fire in the barrel.

 

And exporting doesn't overwrite the current world state, since it only exports a copy of the state.

Yeah. You can set up several states and then you just cue up the one you want. I just don't think I'll bother. I'll just set up a new one for each new game. That way I'll have the world state I want for that playthrough fresh in my mind.

Or If you want a slightly less violent metaphor, you can think of the keep being like a shoe rack. You can have all your different pairs of shoes there, and you choose the one you want to wear to leave the house.

You really should not be tempting me so when my mind is so deep in the gutter. The possibilitiiiiies!

 

Sera: Some people like it with a bang, I guess.

 

BC: Hehehehe.

 

Sera: Oh, hi creepy black cat.

 

BC: I'm not a fan of the CBC, sorry.

 

Sera: What's the CBC?

 

BC: Never mind. Soon.

 

Sera: Soon what?

 

BC: You'll be here.

 

Sera: I'm here now.

 

BC: You'll be closer.

 

Sera: You're weird. I'm leaving.

 

BC: Suit yourself. *runs away*

 

Cassandra: Were you talking to yourself again?

 

Sera: No, it was that talking black cat again.

 

Inquisitrix: *aside to Cassandra* I told you not to bring this up! Who knows what she'll do if you set her off!

So being a child of the 80s, Cat's fic made me think of this song, For obvious reasons.

 

 

So then I thought... What if Sera was a contemporary of mine? Would she have liked synthpop like I do? There were a lot of gay men involved in that kind of music, but not so many lesbians that I'm aware of. 

 

There were certainly anti-establishment politics involved. I recently watched the excellent film Pride based on the true story of the Group "Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners" who used bigoted coverage of their campaign in the national press as a catalyst for a benefit gig at which Bronski Beat played.

And there's also other political stuff to be found if you know where to look. I reckon that Sera could get behind the sentiment of a few Pet Shop Boys songs...

The plight of the homeless...

 

People coming to the big city and getting chewed up and spat out by the system.

Capitalism controlling politics.

 

I'm aware that I'm just shoehorning her into what I like, but hey... It was fun to think about...

 

(Sorry for splitting that up but the forum only lets you embed two videos in a post.)
