Okay, this is kind of a silly thing to get caught on, but I must bring it up: portals. The ones between the apartments.
Mainly, I just wanted to know what it looked like, which is what we discussed on the call. I thought about making it Stargate shaped (you know, it's for kids), but this is Washuu-tech so it could be anything. Rob eventually suggested that it probably looked a lot like the door to Washuu's lab, which is kind of obvious if you think about it. It could probably look like anything, but most likely a normal door.
For the Halloween story, I need a portal big enough to put an entire car through -- perhaps a big double door, or a garage door. But the entire ground floor of my complex is a parking garage. So I'm thinking it either needs to be somewhat portable (a security risk) and resizable, or to have a bigger one on the ground floor (another security risk), make large objects compress as they enter the door, the portal itself can be dialed bigger (on both sides?), or I guess I can have my characters just rent a van :/
Also are these portals 1-1 mapped, all heading to a central location? (Like the portal park in Erfworld, the Hangar is a plausible location.) Or do they have a way to change the place the door opens to? (Like Howl's Moving Castle and we make Nova Scotia the black one.) The first is more standard Washuu-tech and potentially more secure, the second is more convenient. This isn't all that important to figure out now, at least for me. The first one could easily have customs officers like Rob suggested
Or now that I've written this, I could just have Sakura apply The Little and then The Big on the van. That is obvious, isn't it. Unless we want the bigger doors. I'd assume the Ben Rose house would put the portal in the garage (since we all know that space the best anyway).
