mini plot during the storm! all boating PCs look here!

Hey hey, Sof here with Taxon's only resident ancient person/historical figure.

Bagoas will be acting the classic damsel in distress/object of moral dilemma in the middle of the nasty storm. He'll go overboard.

Now, rather than just me posting that comment and waiting on whoever gets there first to try to save him his sorry ass, I thought I'd put the mini plot out there.

We have a fair number of hero types onboard, but also a bunch of grey hats, and some who can't be properly labelled.

If you want in on any of this, up to and including some kind of rescue and the aftermath thereof (or bring up the most pragmatic, rationally sound solution: to leave him), comment below and we'll figure something out. :)

You know Josef would want in on saving his blooddollnotaboyfriend friend so definitely throwing him out there.

And if anyone - Eyes Jason - makes the point that one man isn't worth risking himself or others, well... YAY FIGHT. I mean... IC drama :D

Someone's going to have to keep this shrieking idiot from leaping in after him.

Yeah that's all I've got.

Although Gwen will be busy getting hit by lightning a shitload of times, I'd be willing to throw her out there for the little more grey, callous "leave him, idiots" approach! Especially because a.) she doesn't know Bagoas that well. b.) she's not the biggest team player ever and bases survival on all else and c.) serving as the lightning rod will make her feel like she's doing all this to save the ship and they're just opting to it away to save one guy.

TENSION IN HIGHLY TENSE SITUATIONS FTW?!

Would any character back her up on this? IDK how busy she'll be with the lightning stuff but she can always take a much-needed break for some bitching.

SORRY BAGOAS I'D TRY TO SAVE YOU THOUGH. ='(

I can throw Maddy for it. She'd happily attempt to save him, especially as she can a) find him and b) grab him. She's attempting to talk to everyone on the ship (sans Jason) all at once, so she may well notice the *FLAIL BOAT ACK WATER*, though triangulation via telepathy is not a simple game.

Especially amidst lightning and everyone else running about all crazy-like.

Well... it goes without saying that Scott would just leap into the water to try and haul him out, because he has Boy Scout Syndrome. But I can keep him out of it by having him busy elsewhere if it's easier.

I will let the other heroic people take care of him :) However, since we're all on a boat, Buffy and Bagoas perhaps ought to meet, even just briefly.

hahahah I swore I thought I'd answered this. failself, fail.


Jason: Probably of the "What. Is. Everyone. Doing." gritted teeth approach, but given that by the time he gets shit in gear to object people will already probably be leaping overboard, he will just lineface forever and try to order someone to throw them a rope (not knowing about that handy teleport!).

Paul: he's belowdecks what even are you people doing upstairs he's holding onto shit

Long: Post-dip tea and helping warm Bags up? If we still need more for that IDEK
