Barely out the gate, and already punning ahead

[cassandran]

Hey everyone, KC here. I’m new and bringing one Stiles Stilinski into the fold while getting back into the RP game saddle. Nice to meet you all. This place sounded neat, and someone asked nicely so I thought I'll take this leap. (I’ll rein in the horse puns after this, I promise.)

I’m bringing him in at the beginning of season 5, where most of the Teen Wolf crew are getting ready for the start of senior year, after the summer holidays. He’s a smart mouth, prickly 17 year old with a paranoid streak due to previous canon events, so it’ll take a bit for him to really warm up to people. But hey, talking to others never hurts, and there are worse ways to learn the ins and outs of this place after all. You never know what the things he hears can add up to in the future.

Just a heads up though, I can be a slow tagger. So apologies ahead of time.

Dude, you are not alone. My poor Outlook, it's going to explode in on itself, I suspect.

Yeah, I...watched 5A and noped it out of the show. I might go back and watch 5B and 6 when 6 is over, since it's the final season, just so that I have the full canon under my belt but I'mma have to marathon that shit, I can't be spending every Teen Wolf Tuesday or Moonday or whatever day they air it now being annoyed, I gotta get it all crammed into a few days of "wtf happened to this show :(" so I'm not grouchy forever haha

I mean maybe they should start. They could have contests. Make bets and keep score. Good times. ;)

Following along to get the gist of what's going on has been more than enough for me. Though I do have a soft spot for some of the mythology they introduce, and there are some in S6 that I remember obsessing about when I was younger. But the whole drama parts they're going for? Yeah... not really worth turning on a television or stream for. I'm going to send ad revenue elsewhere. Mostly, the show is the show, and besides touching base every once in a while - we don't have to cross paths often.

... Betting pools. Yes. That can either end in hilarity or disaster. Or a mix of both.

I haven't heard anything about the upcoming season and I heard very little about last season, so I'm not sure what you're referring to, but I think I'll have to watch at some point just to have it all in my wheelhouse in case I decide I need or want it. Haha two ships passing in the night, eh? I like that.

I mean if Stiles brought that up, I imagine there are a small handful of characters that would egg him on with that idea lmao

I saw a couple of gifsets from the SDCC trailer release. But they are following up on some threads they laid out earlier. When exactly is questionable, but hey "something's coming" is a vague enough hint to use it over and over ad nauseum.

It's a strategy that works out pretty well. You can keep the bar low for actual canon (because it is profit based/liable to be adjusted to suit sponsor needs in disappointing ways), but have better expectations of what the fans manage to pull together for themselves.

As long as he's not the one organizing it. Or picking the code names for people.

[sanguinescry]

Ooohh I just watched a trailer and actually that looks infinitely more interesting than the past two seasons combined, tbh. I might have to catch up sooner than I thought, I don't know. I'll read some reviews and see.

Good point, actually yeah...

My Cisco will fight you for code naming rights, bruh. lol

[cassandran]

When you get the Wild hunt involved, things should always be more interesting, or you have failed so much, even the lost ET game looks good in comparison. That said, it does not excuse the revolving door for villains the show can't seem to get rid of.

Like hair pulling and rolling around fight? Or ice cubes down your shirt, steal all the screws from your chair fight?

(There have to be some names they can agree on.)

[sanguinescry]

LOL omg nothing makes the lost ET game look good, though, I mean that's a little bit of a strech haha. But yeah I'm kind of over that, I'll be honest.

Totally the latter kind of fight. And epic, at that.

(I mean, probably, he's not totally averse to letting others contribute to his naming process when it comes to metahumans now and again so why not Specials?)

[cassandran]

Low expectations. Very, very low expectations.

Poor everybody that get caught in the crossfire. >_>

(Call it "constructive criticism". Though there will be suggestions just to be ridiculous, you can bet on it.)

[sanguinescry]

Agreed completely and wholeheartedly.

Haha I know, right?

(He'd rather call it teamwork. I mean, Cisco's names aren't always less than ridiculous on the first try, either, to be fair)

*Sighs forever* Right journal this time.

[cassandran]

This probably needs to happen at some point.

(Those terms are acceptable.)

LOL aww <3

[sanguinescry]

I'm so down.

[sanguinescry]

Oh hey, also! Looks like Cisco and Stiles got paired for a nineteen hour long mission (yikes) in the new daycycle - you wanna log that or just plot it out?

[cassandran]

Plot than log? Having a couple of points to hit always helps keep things moving.

[sanguinescry]

PMed for plotting!
