Before Gallipoli, it was discussed that we should come up with aliases to call each other, and have backstories to speak of while there was downtime in the war. At the time, we knew the Regency was there, but they wouldn't be so visible. It was enough to not be asked too much by the natives of the time, and allowed us the conditions we needed to blend in as a unit of reinforcements that was beached at the wrong location.

The situation may be different here, but I'd suggest we come up with different aliases from before, considering we'll be facing the Regency out in the open. Using your actual name isn't suggested- it could cause problems and endanger the rest of this cell if you do so. Try to pick something you'll remember easily enough.

Feel free to suggest names and ideas for yourselves, or help others. The BCE has a list of them you can pick from. The sooner we can compile a list, the easier it will make it for all of us to recall while in the middle of the mission.

[Boy, talking like this is a reminder of speaking with soldiers before battles. That was a long time ago, and he's getting back into the hang of it. Also, guess who's bad at suggesting names? THIS GUY. Thankfully, the BCE has a posh name generator that can be found here.]

you get down on your knees like the dog you are

[bivariant]

Henry is your actual name?

[whitehair]

bet you'll love that

[ryuji]

Dude... I don't think they're gonna look at a blond asian guy and think "oh, yeah he looks mighty creepy crawly today, mandible swipe right" y'know?

I mean





I hope to god not

[northerndragon]

No, they'll still probably try to kill you. They just won't try to lay eggs in your chest first.

I don't know if they'll try to mate with you if there's no point in breeding with you. They might just eat you.

[lefthandfree]

You have a weird definition of nice. I’m just citing evidence. Obviously we could keep shit talking forever if you really want to, but we’re already at a standoff, as you said.

[lefthandfree]

Not with the black hair now, no.

[raisedbybirds]

[glutton for pain, this man]

Sir Capon, the first.

Unless Henry came first.

[northerndragon]

We have more trouble on our hands if they do, don't we?

Wait. Swipe right?

[crownless]

Yeah they are pretty freaky.

[mental note delete the /d/ folder when you get home travis]

Idk man
losing your virginity's not really worth getting eviscerated

[ryuji]

Yeah, an Aranean

[He looks through his BCE and chuckles, fun's kinda dying down a bit, so--]

I'm just messin' with him. Y'know... two dudes ribbing around

[ryuji]

You ain't never used Tinder, huh

[crownless]

well, shit
those aren't great odds for a lay

[the idea's been planted. it's too late. but at least he is. aware of the risks.]

How do you know so much about boning spiders? You almost get lucky once?

[northerndragon]

I built my own fires as a boy, but I don't think that's what you mean.

[crownless]

We dont know who came first if he calls me his baby brother he's pulling it out of his ass

[ryuji]

I just don't trust anything that can look at you in the eye more than once

[He's been there, don't even kid yourself. Only, he's post-millenial, so he bravely utilizes incognito mode like a Good Boy.]

Or evaporated. I was kinda hoping my first time would be a different e word. Like... emancipated

[ryuji]

I don't even know where I gotta begin with this but you seem too good for an app like that so don't worry about it man.

[jailbirds]

it can't be helped if i'm putting someone in their place! ☆




but seriously ughhhhhh this is gonna be EXHAUSTING

[northerndragon]

Have you seen the spider around BASE, the Day-One? She's getting big now. My intended found the egg in Paris. Now the spider thinks she's her mother.

They don't think much of men, I can tell you. The spider calls me Lord Father, but never addresses me directly.

[crownless]

you sound like a spice rub, bro.

[ryuji]

Owch you went straight for the heart, man

Couldn't you pick a less lethal blow?

[northerndragon]

[Oh, hey, Ryuji just said a word Jon knows, in the context in which he knows it!]

An app. On the BCE?

[But yes, he's too good for it. And too recently-celibate. And too spoken-for, since then.]

[ryuji]

I'm findin a vending machine in spiderworld and making sure to sit by you just to slurp in your ear now

[lefthandfree]

Because I do? They’re not your style.

[If only you knew who the fuck would have a name like @BUCKET. Wow, what a mystery.]

Well, with a name like McKormick, you gotta be a Mickey at least.

[ryuji]

Are you sure you aint the spider queen herself
