Hey, do you guys come up with ideas of what your other characters are doing in this iteration story, even if you know they probably aren't going to show up at all?

Cause I do that all the time. :)
Hard when most of my characters are here, but I occasionally think about Jan'tiala. I miss that little chocoholic.

Mary is around, also with the rebellion... Without Ayame or someone to love her though she's... a little unstable...

James is probably part of Advent somewhere, a alliance of convenience rather than shared ideals.

The Experiments from VoF are also probably part of advent somewhere, but out of use, their original purpose was to be a lynchpin in winning the war, without a war to win, they aren't so much weapons anymore, just experiments.

To be honest, I actually don't. Certain characters of mine simply don't exist in this world. A big one is that the Dragomirov family is not present in this worldline. Sasha and Mikhail certainly couldn't exist without SoD!Jessica/Alexia.

So Tomislav, who is technically my male Main Character, has been woefully underutilized. Time to rectify that. Collab + Follow-Up Solo incoming.

Creative use of powers there. I'm interested in having Tom meet Luke now, and I'm reminded that Morrigan has yet to find out about Blukersey's identity.

Back from my mysterious disappearance for a couple days... sorry about that... ahem...

Too make up for it, I'll work on a solo tomorrow.

Also, hope everyone had a Happy Halloween. Or at least a meh, say at home and did nothing Halloween like me.

...better than your brother in a white William Shatner mask kills your friends and tries to kill you Halloween, right?

Eh, I didn't really do anything either. Consider my post with Phobos to be my Halloween piece, I suppose.

There you guys go. Short but (hopefully) sweet.

To get a good grasp on Veronica's personality, think of her and Joe as two sides of the same personality. Joe is the more grounded and serious side, Vicky the more free and eccentric side. Either on their own can go too far to their extreme, but together, they balance each other out so one can be serious but not forget to enjoy life, while the other can be free spirited but remember to take some things seriously.

Odd complement, but you did a really good job with potraying how life would have been like for Veronica in the gaps. The whole bit about avoiding detection by Advent struck a good chord with me. Maybe I just enjoy it whenever I feel like people are getting the world I've constructed.

Speaking of which, I have a mission for you guys! The first half was done in the morning solo, and will show off a lot of the PCS skills in action (as well as some... improvements to ADVENT's fighting strength) as well as Tomislav's new A.I. partner. Then the second half has some tricks and treats up its sleeve.
