Thread is up!

Please put your character name and any conditions on the top of all character posts, and link to the character sheet in at least the first one. A lot of people like to do a full Stat, Exp, Harm, Condition list in each post.

Hey Godfish, just so you can cross out a couple of those question marks in the OP of the game thread:

Anne still works part time at the diner, usually weekdays after school, occasionally late or on weekends.

The railway is still running, although there aren't any passenger services and the goods trains don't have any reason to stop. They do slow down enough for an enterprising hobo to hop on or off though.

I think now would be a good time to go over boundaries and make sure we're all agreed on certain things.

I'm new to Monsterhearts, so I'm basically not going to try and push things. I'll pay attention to what others say and help keep the game safe, and avoid all the typical no-nos of Monsterhearts. I think I'll go ahead and say that I'm no big fan of body horror - I do understand it is a big theme of some classes, although they're not present as such in this game, but I find it really hard to deal with. I'll let you know if something is too much for me. That's about it for me.

The scene seems to be wrapping up, could everyone post here what their character is planning on doing for lunch?

On the subject of boundaries, Safe Hearts is a good thing to read.

I can't think of anything likely to come up that I'd have a problem with, but if something does I'll say something. And like I said in the OP, if any of you are uncomfortable with anything happening, at all, say something! You can post here, say something in IRC, PM me here or in IRC.

Do you just mean eating, or general plans over the lunch break? Because in terms of food Anne is going to hit up the cafeteria, avoid anything with red meat or sauce, and probably isn't super hungry to start with. Otherwise she just mostly wants to chat with Jamie, maybe see what River's planning on wearing to the party, avoid Linda, chill with Zoe/Matt, and maybe be dimly aware of the existence of Maria.

General plans. Though food plans are acceptable I suppose :v:

Matt's gonna hit the cafeteria too, in order to have his meeting with Linda. Then he'll go hang out with Anne and Zoe and be chill.

Maria's going to hit the cafeteria. She's going to have a private quick chat with Jaime if possible to pump him for more details about his sister and then spend some time talking to her gang and gathering info on Rob to see how she can take him out of the picture for the party tonight.

Some people say Anne is outta her mind
Fighting monsters is her daily grind
Muscle and blood and sticks and stones
A mind that's afraid and a soul that's strong

You slay sixteen ghouls, what do you get
Another day older and closer to death
Please Linda don't you stop me 'cause I gotta go
I'll take the blows till I can't take no more

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my hammer and I crossed the train line
I broke all the limbs of a wandering ghoul
And the Tea Boss said "Anne, don't be a fool"

You slay sixteen ghouls, what do you get
Another day older and closer to death
Please Linda don't you stop me 'cause I gotta go
I'll take the blows till I can't take no more

No time for thinkin', I aint got no plan
Fightin' dead fellers is my usual game
I was raised in the holler by an ol' union man
Cain't no-a black-heart woman make me walk the line

You slay sixteen ghouls, what do you get
Another day older and closer to death
Please Linda don't you stop me 'cause I gotta go
I'll take the blows till I can't take no more

If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta things didn't, a lotta things died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you
Then the left one will

You slay sixteen ghouls, what do you get
Another day older and closer to death
Please Linda don't you stop me 'cause I gotta go
I'll take the blows till I can't take no more

River is planning to find Anne and ask her out to the party. Though his plans may chance depending on what's happening when he gets to the cafeteria.

I want to ask - can I swap my starting move choice from The New Order to The Big reveal? I don't see any reason for Matt to end up triggering it in the near future, and the Big Reveal would work much better for the group I'm in as it stands.

Jamie will probably ask River himself about his date plans at lunch.

And when I mean himself, I mean as Maggie.

Though I'm cool with talking to Anne again if she wants that.

I've got a lunch meeting with Matt to go to. I don't know what's happening after that -- I need to talk to Anne at some point to compare notes re: impending blood and death visions, but I don't plan on trying to do that until I've got enough on her to not be at a complete disadvantage there.

Yeah, you can go ahead. It can be a bit tricky knowing what will work before the game proper starts especially with the way we do apps.

Alright, its about time to shift ahead, so here are some questions.

1. Does anyone want to do anything else in this scene before I close it?

2. Does anyone have anything they want their characters to do before school gets out?

3. What are everyone's plans for afterschool?

1) Fine for the scene to end.

2) Anne is going to try and cut the last half of school.

3) Prepare for the party - Rosie the Riveter costume with tool-belt for improvised weapon action.

2) Matt's just gonna go through his afternoon classes.

3) Will probably want a scene where Matt goes to Linda's house to pick up the tea. Going home and changing into costume might also be a scene but we can skip that.
