He doesn’t even refer to himself as a person. He calls himself an experiment. Calidris, you’re breaking my heart.@rose-colored-fancy that was actually completely unintentional! I wasn’t even thinking about that when I wrote it, but oh my gosh it actually makes sense
Like, I just wonder how Basil would react to being completely fully human for the first time in his life. (Sasha will hate it.)Huh. When I was first thinking about it, I thought he and Skia would both feel awful about it, because they’re no longer “useful.” But that’s actually pretty interesting! Maybe he would feel like he could fit in with the rest of the characters better? Although everyone else is getting cool powers, so maybe not…
Calidris and I came up with a ship name for Basil and Saskia.You came up with a ship name for Basil and Saskia. All I did was ask you for a ship name, and you launched that utter monstrosity at me.
I’m both proud and appalled. It’s so bad and so good at the same time. I hate it *affectionately*My thoughts exactly. Although, I’ve seen it so many times now it no longer feels weird. It’s officially stuck, and I’ll have to live with it for the rest of my life lol
Are you kidding me I love him!!!! I think it started with feeling sorry for him, especially now that he’s a little more vulnerable and a little less obnoxious. But above all that he’s just an interesting character!Aww I’m so glad! I agree, I think he started becoming more likeable once I really started developing his backstory, because that really puts his whole demeanor into context. But, he’s still got an obnoxious side that I’m planning on developing more, so beware!
Poor baby never learned how to properly socialize, and I’ll absolutely take advantage of that to pick at the other obnoxious brats in here (*cough Liorah cough*)
