SO. As may or may not be evident, I have utterly fucking sucked ass at keeping up with the game over the last month plus; RL went nuts and, obviously, the longer I let things slide the more nerve-wracking it's been to try and get caught up.

Unfortunate, considering I had a lot of settling in and CR-establishing still to do at that point.

So, in the interest of trying to dive back in and cut down on the nerve-wrackingness, I hereby cheat. I'm trying to nail down exactly where Wake is at this point, about six weeks after arrival; off the top of my head, I'm working on:

what she's up to in terms of keeping occupied. I'm thinking possibly ADI Security. It has everything she loves: mindless violence, the opportunity to cooperate with Probably Not A Long-Term Ally just closely enough to start analyzing their weaknesses... Also, looking over this month's TDM: if anyone wants to learn how to shoot things, Wake is really good at shooting things and will absolutely either trade lessons for tips on unobtrusive day-to-day survival in 2020s Gloucester, or just sort of end up giving them regardless in a fit of "oh god you are so going to die if you leave the house like that."

where her head is at vis a vis the Entities. It's not great, I know that much. Nightmare event really did a number on her. I do still desperately want to go back and finish those threads, although tbqh it also did kind of a number on me.

who she'd reasonably be spending time with. This is where I'm kind of throwing the field open! People who've threaded with her already; people who haven't threaded with her yet but need another hot, traumatized bastard woman in their orbit; people who are going to freak her out just by existing (this definitely includes but is not limited to obviously nonhuman individuals, unrepentant magic users, and anyone with strong Extinction vibes)... let's talk about it. I'm open to either brainstorming assumed CR with which to go forward, or setting up a thread to explore the possibilities.

what stunningly overdetermined fake given name she came up with for her paperwork. Seriously. This question haunts me.

In conclusion: halp? I may have been a massive flake lately, but I'm still so excited about this game and I really desperately want to get my feet underneath me!
