Overview

Im gonna write a reply as if Dreams' character is currently tasting the drinks. That way Maray's sudden rip of attention makes some sense.

Will hopefully have a reply out tonight.

straight from the lounge, down the hall way and finally just past the dance floor up to the main bar. another model showed up. more subtle and not as flashy as the other model's the Sincho used. this one even looked a bit ... human. they looked like normal clientele. perhaps the only thing the stood out about them was the lack of any notable cybernetics. pink threaded hair, a pair of glasses and eyes of a yellow hue. the fit managed to somehow blend the line between business causal and the skimpiness you would expect from a night club like this. a open silk thread suit, with a shirt cut way above the waist. leaving nearly the entire torso exposed. a ribbon bow at the collar and pants tied loosely by a thin looking blue belt. and of course a noting bulge. not a ball shaped one. it was more like a elongated sausage that pointed up before curving to the left at the last moment before reaching the belt line of his pants. given the neon lighting it was heads or tails as to if this made him stand out more or less... he knocked on the table of the bar, hoping to get the attention of a bar-keep even among all this noise. do robots drink? who could say for certain. with the advancement of technology it could be for necessity or it could simple be for formality.

Okiii

well i guess mine is the only character design to be in multiple places at once, so i guess it shouldn't matter too much... probably should be adding small images to my post so i don't get confused with which model im supposedly playing

Yeah, it was Dream’s turn to post between the three of us. Though someone else could stick a little in between, especially if it is interacting with the bartender.

Main bar. Just waiting on dreams to feel better

dream? isn't Lerozero the bartender their though?

Everyone upstairs is on pause until Gard is back. Characters downstairs should get going when Dreams is ready to post again, you could probably write something there though.

should i respond to the main bar or the upstairs bar?

I don't mind waiting. Evi will chill until Gardsom returns.

Yeah, I liked it quite a bit as well so it sparked one hell of a talk about GOE's world.

I threw out a random idea that I thought would fit the story. Inspired from some fairly old games. Was not sure if anyone else would know it, but at least Warning did. She has been doing a good job explaining and considering adjustments that would be needed forthe setting.

holy back log, what did I miss?

I did let Gard know he has some stuff to read here when he is back. He did give a reply, and looks more like an October return now. After that I gave him a bit of a summary of what we had been talking about, not sure yet if he is familiar with the inspiration like me and Warning. For now we will see what happens with the downstairs trio, once they get going again and Emiko potentially getting introduced. Whether any of them go upstairs or not. @ChiyakoUp to you of course, if you want to wait for him or not. Depending on what you want to do, there is the possibility Ryoko could 'distract' Dalton, until he is back. Letting Evi get up to things. Or the three can stay as they are, if you would prefer to wait. I told Gard I would let him know what happens there.

Ah, got it.

Well, it wouldn't just be posters. My character is a little more professional than that. I was thinking more like a tv ad of sort. Hologram screen ad in such fashion. For now, it's VERY late and I'm afraid that I have to go sleep. Unless I die then I won't be able to post at all. Some sort of big day tomorrow. I guess we will see how this goes later...

Hmm... Maybe the ads are on like...holographic posters in the bar? Could be hung up behind the counter where Maray and others can see easily.

I could do an introductory post where the company in question releases the system to be used and characters can always go "I'd like to try that." We know how it is if some hologram ads present it. Just an idea anyway. Emiko could always be in the same scene. Just not the same "plot". Notice ads, notice maid girl who looks out of place, things like that.

Hm. I know I certainly want to use Maray to be dove into, but I don't know when I will be able to apply that...

A visit to the dive shop and yeah, have fun after that. Emiko was not planned to come as someone to dive into anyway. COULD be interesting. But yeah. I still have to think about what I want to do with her after this discussion but more and more, I could do something with this idea with some characters of mine. (The digital space mostly, for my part)

Ah, got it. Could use a small intermission every few memories/events...

Well, that depends on the roleplayers. I don't make those stories. Just explaining how it works. You dive in their mind, feelings, past. It's up to the roleplayers to set what they see and how they find more about layers. Of course only few know about ar tonelico so I doubt it will be done in any way like I explained it but I guess it's good to dream. You don't have to spend an eternity in the cosmosphere. This is why Diving points were a thing in Ar tonelico. Every events you trigger cost DPs because such events put a strain on the dove partner's mind. After a while, they need a rest. But yeah, it's really up to the roleplayers. As for Emiko, she is optional. She can just exist as a character.

I see. How much time irl(roleplay irl) would each dive be?

If we remove the whole reyvateil idea out and go more cyberpunk, that's basically it. A future way to help patients with mental health, therapy, etc. That's the benefit we could be thinking about. While it probably does other things but that's the main idea. It's no small fun trip since we dives into someone's memories and trauma, feelings, past, etc. To find about how we can help them. This could, in a way, be the update sale pitch for emiko. Since I think the only way to really find more about her (with how little she talks) is by diving.
