the robots are house guests now?

oh my god i love this so much Lex 23:13, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

That is the plan, yes, although I have yet to brainstorm it. I mostly decided to start with an opener to test my Show:Tell ratio. After watching some Firefly episodes recently, I'm starting to get a bit more conscious about it, given I riff near anything anyway. Thing about the episodes I watched is sometimes those episodes would drag something out that was really minor and then go into mass detail about it later, or otherwise exposit on something else and then drop the subject matter in the next few episodes. Both these things are writing no-nos, so I figured I'd learn from my riffing and try to avoid becoming the padded strawberry eating scene in the pilot that has no bearing on plot or character development at all.

Strawberry eating scene? Lex 23:37, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

The Engineer (Kaylee?) eats a strawberry for much longer than is necessary, and the scene is played out so the eating looks sexy. In reality, it looks annoying. Noxigar 23:41, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

something worth noting

Regarding the contrast between Rosenberg and D'Arque, what with Rosenberg having a city and D'Arque having a town.

D'Arque is technically in a better position, due to the fact that he actually has all the power in Towningdale while not actually being an official leader. Rosenberg, while being the official mayor of the city, holds almost no power whatsoever due to his reclusive nature, and with the exception of the wealthy area in which he resides, the rest of the city is really a crime invested pit.

I guess we could shed some light on that. Noxigar 01:20, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

We should also use the room to keep track of plot points and their ensuing plot holes

So as to ensure we don't have any problems like we have the last two/three times we did this. They call me Big T BLOOD 04:11, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

Alright. I'm trying to avoid those confounded plot holes, if I can. Noxigar 04:15, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

Of course. But at this point, I don't believe we have any, do we? Lex 04:15, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

No, but if you notice one as it arises in the future(and in particular, don't want to deal with it/can't), then you can post it and one of us can pounce on it to fix the hole.

Also, I think this is the direction for the episode is heavy plotwork, which means we can devote all of Episode 6 to stupid shenanigans They call me Big T BLOOD 04:18, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh yes, that sounds good. Building up backstory and whatnot. Smashing idea! Lex 04:19, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

"Space Pirate"

All of the sudden, my headcanon Vindi is that of Orphaner Dualscar.

Fucking Homestuck's corrupted me. Lex 04:21, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

Ha. Noxigar 04:23, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

As the nostalgia engrained in me kicks in, I drew some influence from that from Kagato, though obviously not aimed at being wholly evil. They call me Big T BLOOD 04:24, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

actually can we have all "criminal era" flashbacks represent cheesy anime shows from the 80s-90s because that would be awesome Lex 04:29, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

You fucking know it They call me Big T BLOOD 04:37, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

I agree. Although I have difficulty analogizing myself to an earlier era. Noxigar 04:39, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

We can work on that idea later, it's mostly a fleshling concept that we don't have to revisit until we decide to work really heavily on our background They call me Big T BLOOD 04:42, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

if i could draw

i would seriously do fanart of d'arque and droll omg bratty d'arque is just the greatest thing ever Lex 17:41, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

I can draw, but I can't seem to draw anyone in the Wikihood cast. Many a time I've tried to immortalize these colorful characters in pencil, but alas, it never works. They call me Big T BLOOD 18:02, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

What does Droll look like, anyway? I always imagined him looking quite plump and stout. Lex 18:14, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh no, he's fairly thin for a goblin - being above 3 feet tall is an accomplishment among goblinkind. As such, his suit is incredibly ill-fitting, assuming it's probably a hand-me-down from his cajun ancestors. They call me Big T BLOOD 18:50, 22 December 2012 (UTC)

i introduce a female character

and you guys already preposition her

typical Lex 20:00, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Spoiler alert: She's already Chaos' waifu They call me Big T BLOOD 21:47, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

fuck you she's a lesbian now Lex 22:20, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Don't pull a Joss Whedon and change her sexuality for no good reason. He did that once with a different character and it led to... a lot of unfortunate implications and "you fail biology forever" moments from him. Said legacy would be better familiarized as "Willow" and the moment is so awful I refuse to ever name a character Willow. Noxigar 01:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

nah she's str8 don't worry

rosenberg's totally canon gay tho Lex 03:58, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Okay. Rosenberg being homosexual is not contradicted in the past, so it does not qualify as a plot hole. Noxigar 04:39, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

i hate to create a plot hole and it's entirely my fault due to me not filling in her fucking character page but stephanie is only 22 years old while the two robots happen to be about 30 years old. just saying and i apologize for it Lex 05:32, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
