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.]

People suspect.

I don't want to give them anything to make it easier for them to find me.

[mylawn]

One tabloid? If the Regency knew, I'd already be gone.

[desynched]

They might not know now.

But I guess If they figure out where and when to look it won't matter.

For either of us.

[mylawn]

Might also be that Overwatch was relatively insignificant, in the cosmic scheme of things.

[desynched]

You really know how to bruise someone's ego.

[mylawn]

Another possibility is that we were useful to them in some way. Helped pave the way to their universal peace, or whatever they call it.

[desynched]

Thanks.

Now I feel better.

[mylawn]

I've become a pessimist in my old age.

[reillumination]

Life is wild. Even if you choose it, why not do what feels fine? There's no harm in losing yourself once in a while.

Spontaneity can be as much a personality trait as anything else. But, even if I wanted to plan that out, I don't think I could. It's a good thing I gave up on that a while ago.

[desynched]

I noticed.

If anyone's helping the Regency, it's Talon

[mylawn]

I think this is beyond the scope of anything we dealt with back home.

@SSSSSSSSS

[deem]

I get what you're saying, but the thing is...

It'd be pretty improper for me to go by a human name, considering the circumstances.

[Surely it would be wrong to emulate mankind in such a way]

private;

[dorzalta]

I believe that you were traitorous. I question it now, ser.

[ Not that she thinks the best of anyone by default, but Mordred's earned her trust thus far. ]

I'm quite accustomed to betrayals. My own knight, in fact.

[dorzalta]

No?

[ So help him if he calls them beasts. ]

Re: @GOTTAGUN

[dorzalta]

Preferable to my real name?

[dorzalta]

They're behaving like children, more like it.

[ No doubt they'll choose a name at some point, lest they're truly stupid. ]

[dorzalta]

Am I to take it you're infallible?

[dorzalta]

Best to not proffer our enemies our identities so easily, regardless of what we believe they know of us.

[excelsus]

Well aren't you flashy.

Exceptional enough on all counts, at least they've received compliments, I've only just picked it back up. Not something I really had to engage in regularly after coming into my magic.

[excelsus]

A youth culture, sounds like. You said you were part of it, have you outgrown it?

[inconstantly]

[What a question.]

it's something that always stays with you, at least somewhat. i no longer have any interest of being in a band but i still enjoy the music, react strongly against the idea of hierarchy, and wear combat boots under my trousers

permaprivate etc

[bloodings]

maybe i want you to question it. harder to betray someone if they see it coming, right?

[ Wouldn't that be the long con... Mordred's playing 4D chess. Just kidding, she's too stupid even for normal chess. ]

anyway, you survived, so he obviously did a bad job. i bet he wasnt anywhere near as cool or strong as me. [ Priorities... ]

[handsomefoil]

Depends on the context
I like reading between the lines sometimes
Immediately assumed others did the same
Can only assume Noctis has had different experience with ellipses.

Very well, I will try not to be :)

[dorzalta]

Easier when one starts anew. Either way, it sounds like an exhausting effort. Most certainly you deserve commendation for such hard work, if that's the case.

[ The likelihood of Mordred having the patience for that sort of ploy? Well, that's on Varys' level, isn't it? Even she can't be bothered. ]

It's more complicated than that. He survived. Not all betrayals must mean the death of someone.

[faenthras]

I'd rather not get another headache.
