Okay so something really funny happened XD I was naming a minor side character (He’s just there to fill a background role, he’s barely a character XD) and I was running through a list of names and picked Khalon because it sounded cool.
I had the faint idea that it sounded familiar but didn’t remember about your character until a while later XD
I just think it’s hilarious how often that happens, this isn’t the first time I’ve accidentally matched names. (Right, @emily-waldorf ?)
It was then that I looked up and saw the Doctor staring at me again, except this time his eyes were soft, and this time his frown looked more troubled than disappointed. I think that maybe that was the moment he stopped seeing me as just a weapon…
OhmyGOSH that whole part was so sad… Poor Basil someone hug him, quick!! 😭😭 He deserves so much better, poor sweetheart!
Only experiments like me have DNA from multiple people.
He doesn’t even refer to himself as a person. He calls himself an experiment. Calidris, you’re breaking my heart.
Really? I’m glad! He doesn’t strike me as a character most people would find very lovable, but then again I haven’t really started revealing his backstory until now.
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!
If we roll with the giving characters powers idea, it would be really cool to take Basil’s powers. Like, I just wonder how Basil would react to being completely fully human for the first time in his life. (Sasha will hate it.)
@everyone
Calidris and I came up with a ship name for Basil and Saskia. It’s beautiful. A work of art. I want a drumroll…
*drumroll*
Baskia.
I’m both proud and appalled. It’s so bad and so good at the same time. I hate it *affectionately*
I had an idea that if you choose to give Rúan telepathy as his power he might see Aydin’s hallucinations or at least know about them. It could be really interesting since Aydin hasn’t told anyone.
@everyone
I want to get back into the castle, does anyone have a character free to interact with Aydin? (I’m keeping Liorah open for Saskia because I desperately need to see that XD) He’d fit in great with Basil and Rúan but I don’t want to ruin their moment and he’ll make them both clam up instantly so maybe not XD
I think he’d really like Khalon too! Honestly anyone would be cool, so whoever has a character free, that would be awesome! Aydin can kind of get along with almost anyone XD
(Also Aydin somehow got himself in a romantic subplot and I’m both mad and delighted.)
