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

[robkelk]

You'd mentioned doing this, so it isn't a surprise. I am wondering whether the Halloween Party story is the right time for it, though - that story is already overfull and I still need to add a sparring scene to it in order for scenes that follow it to make sense.

We have a Christmas Party story that has barely been touched. Move the scene from one corner of the year to another? It would take some re-writing... and some edges to the scene that make sense at Halloween wouldn't make sense at Christmas, so maybe not.

Yeah - not Christmas-y material. It's in the Halloween Party document now.

Had a thought that would open a huge can of worms if I put it into the story... but isn't it the point of a deconstruction to open cans of worms?

Not going to share it just yet, because it also affects Labster's stories and I don't want to step on toes. I PMed him over the weekend. If we both decide to go with it, then I'll share.

This is also somewhere on the wiki now, marked as a draft. If it does happen, somebody's going to learn about the Law of Unintended Consequences.
