EVENT PLOTTING POST!

[no_longer_a_king]

Okay, most of you should know the drill by now. For those who don't, this post is for making, consolidating, discussing, and so on any and all plans you have for the event. Not all of us are on one another's timelines on plurk. So it'll be a good idea to have some kind of discussion here so we can plot with people not on one another's timelines and have an easier reference when threading things out.

Oh, when I do the post I'm going to put in nice big bold letters people should put down in the subject header if they're up to murder or something. We'll see~!

The issue is because she's powerless, she's very physically weak. So if someone wants to overpower her on pure strength they probably could. However, she can easily get by on mad skillz so that could be next to impossible.

Hmm...but she will get her powers back if she 'malfunctions' won't she or are you going to stick with her just not having any of them?

In any event, Diarmuid won't do anything that might hurt her even if she's trying to kill him so she could get in a lucky shot.

Alternatively, he is going to get mauled by his brother/puppy thing and then Ryoji will be finishing him off. Would she like to kill him while he's stuck in sleep paralysis for maximum emotional impact?

[promised_victory]

If she 'malfunctions' yes. But she's aware during the time when she attacks the knightly types. So it's really a matter of 'have her aware of killing Diarmuid, but relying purely on technique' or 'have her kill Diarmuid with powers, but not be aware until after the fact'.

So it's whatever you want to do, really. I have no issue with anything.

[oathshackledbird]

Honestly, the way doesn't matter to me either. What would affect Saber the worst do you think? Or does one way appeal to you more than another for future CR options?

I know you had that scene with Alter coming in while Lily was in sleep paralysis and thinking of killing her and then not doing it which was kind of what made me think of recreating that scene with Diarmuid (since he will be dying) only having her actually doing it because of the brainwashing.

But you know your girl best and I am really open to doing it in whatever way you want to!

[promised_victory]

Nah, if I wanted to recreate that scene, I'd want it to involve Alter herself. Plus if she's aware she can fight back enough to keep from killing if she cares enough. I don't know if Diarmuid would be close enough to qualify for that, though. 8|a

Oh geez, and I thought I was cruel... I wanna wish you good luck with that because I would love to see it threaded, but...ouch!

Hmm... Would she happen to have something in the back of her mind that she is angry at him about? I know that is what is going to cause Lancer to go off on Diarmuid even though Lancer does have some control. If there is something like that, it might override any lingering cares she has about killing him.

Otherwise, I could pass on this one since it might be hard for her to kill him powerless and they do have plans to be working together on the tower map/list stuff soon after this. Her killing him might make things a little awkward. I hadn't thought about that before.

[promised_victory]

He could always kill her instead. As far as her targets are concerned she's going after anyone involving white knights, something she definitely associates him with. If you're desperate for Diarmuid to be the one killed she can try to kill him.

And, as I said, I don't know if Diarmuid qualifies as someone she could hold back with. The only ones I know for certain would be Archer, Rin, and not!Shirou. However she wouldn't be afraid to go all out on Archer. Diarmuid, close as they are, I don't think she's close enough to be able to hold back despite how much they're working together.

[oathshackledbird]

LOL! Nope, not that desperate. Not when he has two other kills that will probably happen this week. I just figured since I knew she would associate him with the white knight stuff, that I would offer him up as an option. :-)

And that is fine with the holding back. It was just an idea that popped into my head.

[promised_victory]

Well, that's fine! You think over what you want to do and let me know. Lily's post won't be up until Tuesday or Wednesday since I'm introing in C&C tomorrow and want to dedicate a day or two to it. I'm honestly open for anything so just tell me what you want to have happen if you want and we'll make it happen!

[oathshackledbird]

Sounds good. Good luck with your intro!
