I love hearing that that keeps happening. I remember thinking each time the team went somewhere that Maple would instinctively be keeping an eye out for any other big Night cap Fangirls... I remember toying with the idea that eventually she might start a fanclub and send out monthly letters
but...
While Kage may have been right to stop EB's charge... Destron felt more so for his safety than to avoid, conflict - the storm slick exterior of the vessel's hull while not exceptionably treacherous... could with an ill-timed footfall or an unforeseen change in incline, have dramatic and...
maple fangirling over Night cap to the point that she'll needle Static just for trying to change him - even for the better- makes me laugh, I'd forgotten how that was the start of their sibling-ness. Also Maple talks a lot. sorry Fnu, I remember how much coloured text was a pain on the old...
I think having her ongoing focus on hiding that she was the MMM from the party was a good distraction to have you all focus on lol that way any weirdness would be seen as "how does this fit into the wrestling angle?" instead of becoming a "what else is she hiding?" the disliking the princesses...
shortly after Maple joined the squad, we went on a swamp mission and ended up encountering an eldritch swamp monster who's Name Maple never could figure out how to say, so she calls him Brusselsprouts - at first it looked like it was going to be a fight, but then Maple being Maple was all like...
oh yeah, none of that was planned other than Maple's friend the Masked Mystery Mare losing, and Maple's match being canceled. We discussed a fair bit of what each of us wanted to do with the character and how bringing her into the game could benefit the other players - like when we converted her...
I loved Maple's little deception in this part, that bit about loaning MM one of her costumes as a way to answer Rhapsody's point was great fun. And the match itself my gosh was that hilarious to reread - you've got Static questioning his alignment, Night cap becoming a superfan, Rhapsody having...
"Into the Jaws of ... " she paused, this was no time for allegory- "This flying fortress is falling fast, we seek to attempt to alter its course away from those below, or if the Goddesses are willing to prevent the crash entirely... we believe such chance exists in the room beyond."
I absolutely adore Maple's last appearance in the comic being her in one of Brusselsprout's vines -seemingly mid-toss, about to be shot out of the story at high warp.
it's what she gets for being immune to wasps I guess. lol
'So much for civility, at least we may hope the storm will prevent the tossing of fireballs' Dee mumbles to herself and Night Cap, as a line of worry creases her brow
I'm thrilled that when people are reading this back, a lot of my subtle clues are showing through - That was one of my favorite parts of writing for Maple. It was often a lot of note-keeping lol, tracking what Maple was doing- both why she was doing it, and usually more importantly for IC, why...
reading this thread I'm getting a little blushy about how fondly everyone seems to remember what we did with Maple. I say We because every one of you helped shape her story in ways I'll never be able to correctly put into words. This game was a blessing, and I don't use that word often. Good...
