Well I have my excuse then! Once I'm done grading for the night I'll write up a Remington Rant, which certainly won't be full of all the frustration I can't put in comments on student's papers.

Ahhhh, so that's what the "horn with a diagonal line through it" rune means!

It's plastered all over the electric stufff!

I'm waiting overnight to allow coastguarder a chance to post, then I'll put up a Jump Week post and start a new thread.

Somehow I feel like Remington isn't taking enough advantage oh his status as resident crazy drive shaman to terrify and confuse the youth aboard this vessel. Once he stops hiding from Ridley's retribution I'll have to fix that.

Have at it!

While I've posted a "This Week in Jumpspace" newsletter there's no reason not to add colour.

Theoretically Ridley is about to post, and I will hold off opening a new thread to give him a chance.

I don't want to rush it. I was thinking that spending all week hiding in the drive room would already make Remington stand out as slightly off-kilter to the normally socializing crew. The fact that it's more self-preservation than deliberate weirdness is just a fringe benefit. Plus it gives me time to cook up something really good.

Unfortunately Ingrid is just as absent, with Gris close behind...

At least Remington has the distinction of being at his post, on duty, nearly all the time. That's pretty odd.

No wonder they are in total admiration of Raven ..... we are going into space with a bunch of horny 17yr old teenagers .... imagine the smell ......


Im happy to wrap things up now as long as i get a nice big tattoo and make a friend of the ships no doubt psychotic hound ......

I am still having problems with dice roller so have asked admin to sort out. Leon is happy just sparing and getting rest (along with doing his shifts).

Mind you he may be interested in seeing if Ridley flinches during his tattooing ....might even be worth a bet?

make a friend of the ships no doubt psychotic hound ......

I misread that as "psychic hound" and got excited for a minute that Ridley knew something the rest of us didn't

Right..!!! I am in with the dice roller, just need to know how to roll the dice, I rolled some stat dice (bloody good stats as well) . I have put in my character but how do I get the dice roll. Do I need to type into the macro? I put in 2d6 but err came up........Bingo!!!!!! got it practice roll [2d6] =5

[2d6] = 10 .....got it

Well done getting the roller rolling. Tricky blighter, everyone struggles with it.

I've posted some Jump Week items to private threads, and we might as well ink up Ridley while we're here. Then: Next stop Marduk.

Struggled with the dice too. We're all up to speed now. I for one, and I'm sure Kar would agree, would like to see Ridley get inked

The scene will of course depict the serpent leading the fleet into jump with Raven silhouetted standing on the outer hull ..... Remingtons tattoo will be a symbol of the jump drive ....... it will be like ridleys performed in front of the war band and shall be put on his forehead ...

Oh Gods... you want to ink Remington as well, on the forehead! Couldn't you be nice and choose a buttock instead?

I might remind Ridley that Vigdis cautioned him to "be careful how you discipline my slave."

Way to steal my thunder Bindoner. That was going to be my first point. Not that I'm an expert on Oghman slave law, but I would think that right now Remington is nominally under Kar's authority, but in the same sense as the ship itself. That is, it's a loan, and if it doesn't come back in at least as good a condition as when it was loaned there'd best be a very good reason for damages.

Once I'm out classes I'll lodge the same complaints IC.

Remington could have some M drives tattooed on his arse!

Alas, before the "Inkfest" gets out of hand it may (thankfully???) be limited by the skills of the "Ink Mistress"(?) herself. Raven isn't a proper tattooist but could copy a design - hence fishing about on board for one! No doubt to Remington's great relief she can't really do "creative".

I think (as above) Remington's best defence is he's not "issue" but on loan from Vigdis and so must be handed back "intact in all areas".

Kar would of course step in to protect his Lady's property. Still very much looking forward to Ridleys tattoo on his back, on the spine, where the skin is thinnest and the nerves are nearest.
