[OOC][PLOT] The Third Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals

[Labster]

Osaka asked, "Hey, you can use The Big on breasts, can't'cha?"

Rob had the bad luck to have been drinking when she said that. After he recovered from his spit-take, he looked around - luckily for him, it seemed like Kuroko and Usagi were nowhere nearby.

Or Ranma, lol.

I was thinking Ruiko and Sasami would be good, as would Ami.  Are they really age 12?  Kuroko's hormones seem a little strong for that age o_O.  Also who the fuck lets 12 year olds be in a police force?  Every time I look at Academy City it seems like one bad decision after another.

They were in the first year of junior high (except that Mikoto's one year ahead of them and Mii's in senior high), so "12" is the most reasonable guess.

And, yes, Academy City is not what I would call well-run. I think we have a trope for it... ah, yes, here it is.

You're mistaking my intellectual outrage for moral outrage, though.  It's not that the world is terrible even if it is, it's that granting the right to use force to hormone-riddled teenagers against their peers sounds like a recipe for disaster.  Like, I would be surprised if the place doesn't blow up every week.  Most societies have decided that they can't handle the right to vote, but somehow violence is okay?  Like, what?

Looks like I got a group to be fashionably late to the party, though.

Well, your group is coming from California. (My SI's excuse for showing up late is that somebody had to hand out candy.)

Oh, yes: since I was beginning to lose track, I started a list of who's wearing what to the Halloween party. Feel free to add to it.

I seem to notice that you've lent me all the characters for which you didn't choose a costume.

Chibi-Usa would make a pretty good Chiyo-chan, but the irony is that none of my cast actually has a copy of their school uniforms with them.  (Possibly Tomoyo has one of Sakura's in the limo, for reference, and definitely not for embracing or smelling or anything like that >.>  But I doubt it.)

The Aria Company's costumes all sort of fell into place, once I started with Alicia.  Tomo, Yomi, and President Aria's costumes are all plot relevant and locked-in, but the others can still take suggestions.
