FROM: @WEHFRIED || TO: @ALL (backdated like hell, aka before spiderland)

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.]

I'm starting to think this is going to be an annual event.

As long as they get it done before the mission, it doesn't much matter to me.

I suppose you're correct. It is a little chaotic to read through when you're trying to divine if there's anything useful in it.

...Actual divination might work.

Actual divination? We don't really do that where I'm from.

Personal skill, let's say.

What, you tell the future?

Make reasonable guesses based on certain signs, yes. Far more common in Greece in my day, of course.

Right, of course. [ಠ_ಠ] Should've known.

I...am a centaur.

You've got me there.

Just checking in to remind you the divination aspect is hardly the strange part.

Goodness these discussions end up in weird places.

To be fair, I can look at you and see that you're a centaur. Divination is a little more subjective.
horsepowered: (x12. Bruised up)

[personal profile] horsepowered 2018-04-18 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
I will absolutely cede that point.

[personal profile] mylawn 2018-04-18 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
I'm glad we agree.

I don't think there's a more precise word, unless there's a way to formulate "happens once before a mission every time" into...some language?
horsepowered: (x10. Disapproving faces)

[personal profile] horsepowered 2018-04-18 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Regardless, this is not my...favorite...tradition.

[The network is chaotic evil at times like this.]

Promise me you'll leave it to another next mission.

Very well.
