The Hooded Hood traditionally prepares a special welcome for new LL leaders.

    Well, that could have gone worse I suppose. Amber seemed to have a good time with it, after all, and she deserved one. Hell, maybe she proceeded to have a really good time with it... The young lady didn't seem to object all that much so far.


I'll let someone else write that tie in. Or illustrate it.


    Quote:
    I really loved the Dancer bit at the opening. I can only pray that her closing line was correct, because I don't see the general getting any easier to work with following the kind words that Dream had to say about him on national television. Stay classy, America!


Our very next scene opens with the General going to have a word with Visionary.


    Quote:
    Not that he apparently didn't have co-conspirators in the Mansion staff. Speaking of co-conspirators, that was quite the list of baddies who were watching and expecting a specific outcome. The Word is not going to be overly happy, I think, even if Ioldabaoth isn't particularly upset.

    So we have to wait awhile before finding out the full line-up, eh? Kind of cruel, but I guess I can last.


I've done several of these line-up shuffles now and I try to keep them different. This change is perhaps more surprising than most so I thought it deserved a slow burn full story rathern than a last paragraph feel-good announcement.

In fact given that I'll need to cover seven character-introduction storylines it might turn out to be more than one issue unfortuately.


    Quote:
    I was glad to see Dream trip up the Hood's trap, but why *wouldn't* he have picked Mumphrey or Hatty for the job? I mean, what are they even doing? Well, okay... Hatty's perhaps a bit indisposed, but still. Am I forgetting some reason Mumphrey has been totally absent since the Carnifex? And why didn't I think to be?


CSFB! picked Vizh because he likes Vizh and thinks he'd be good at that kind of job. And maybe because Dream's a trickster embodiment of chaos.

Technically the rest of the membership have to agree, but I guess that G-Eyed, Dancer, and Donar will be for it at least, so there's a majority.


    Quote:
    In any event, you got your wish and Vizh is back to take whatever lumps you have in store. The story has been very entertaining, so I'll try not to form a new team and leave in the middle of it this time.


That would be wise.


    Quote:
    Just keep it coming.


I'll be taking a break for a few days to do a novella for a magazine but I'll try not to let things lapse for long.
