Broadsword: Drifter you there?

Arcanewanderer: yeah am around needed to talk to you actually.

Broadsword: What do you need?

Arcanewanderer: Wanted to apologize after last time. I...the question you asked was...

Arcanewanderer: it was personal. And I lashed out because the you before this would have already known.

Arcanewanderer: I know that's not fair. Not at all, and it's my fault you don't remember. But it still hurts.

Arcanewanderer: am grieving what I had and trying to put it back together. But it's like knowing the song but forgetting how it went. I know the words but the melodies are all different now

Arcanewanderer: am sorry am not...doing better at this.

Broadsword: ahh

Broadsword: Well, I also need to apologize I actually did what you asked. Talked to Eleanor about some of what she seen from you

Broadsword: didn't get alot out of her but I got enough Drifter. Your forgiven, so Valm want a drink?

Arcanewanderer: I don't drink but, I'll join you at the bar anyway.

Arcanewanderer: Thanks Arthur.

God, I fucking love explaining Warframe to people who know nothing about it. Literally nothing I'm about to say is exaggerated in any way.

It's a looter-shooter with pretty cool sci-fi worldbuilding regarding a bunch of factions at war after one huge solar system-spanning empire fell and left a power vacuum in post-post-post-apocalyptic space, sure, and that's the core gameplay, but that ain't shit.

There's mining and fishing and hunting and picking up everything that isn't nailed down, Skyrim style.

You can decorate multiple spaces. Some of them get so large and detailed that people build mazes and Gundams and kaiju and city skylines.

You can skateboard Tony Hawk style and do sick tricks on Venus. And elsewhere, later.

There's Flappy Bird and Gradius and Street Fighter and Mario Kart and more games inside the game and you can play them, too.

There's Guitar Hero. It's played on space shamisen.

You think at first that you're a cool space ninja robot but then find out you're an extremely traumatized teenager dreaming they're a cool space ninja robot, which is actually how you control the cool space ninja robot.

There's a second timeline version of you with different trauma who got a little too into their favorite story to cope, but sentenced themselves to death approximately a jillion times because they got bored and hangry. They have the best one-liners in the game.

Your adoptive space mom has hella dissociative identity disorder.

You can crew a spaceship with three of your friends and engage in space battles. There was a bug where with some creative use of a motorcycle in space, a particular frame capable of eating enemies was able to eat an enemy ship with players still on board. Spatial shenanigans ensued.

The biggest evilest extraplanar entity ever might just be lonely and very bad at interacting (and justifiably butthurt that someone stole his finger). The playerbase kind of loves him and nicknamed him Wally.

One single pathetic sopping wet weasel of a man is responsible for a disproportionate amount of evil bullshit, but the playerbase kind of loves him too and nicknamed him Salad.

A horrifying infection exists that mutates flesh and machine into one terrible amalgamation but then they tried to use it to make video games and clone a boy band, mostly to save money.

The boy band clones will stalk you if you pick up their sick mixtapes.

The guy responsible for basically the entire clusterfuck is explicitly gay. His ex is an uncommonly old and prissy twink. The old man yaoi is canon.

There's actually a lot of old people in this game. And a lot of conventionally unattractive people. It's kind of refreshing actually.

You have to save the world from the Y2K bug by engaging in a dating sim with a bunch of people in a time loop to stop a reactor from blowing up, with the power of love and friendship and a whole ammo rack of really cool guns you crafted along the way.

David Bowie is also there.

Warframe sure is a game that exists!

Broadsword: Okay, Lettie's been acting odd since your talk

Broadsword: and Sol knows i don't want to pry

Arcanewanderer: Ask what you need to ask Arthur.

Broadsword: Listen Marty, why did you react so violently to her getting hurt before you want messing for a loop is that easier?

Arcanewanderer: I thought Eleanor was the journo Arthur.

Broadsword: How did you know, oh we've forgotten loops haven't we?

Arcanewanderer: All of them before this one, the choice was all or nothing and it was crueler for you to remember. She know's how many loops its been now to, how well I know you guys. how much potentially you've forgotten about me.

Broadsword: Marty!

Arcanewanderer: she even got a few details out of me about last loop. agreed if I was telling the truth I did the right thing. not that she fully trusts that am telling the truth at the moment.

Broadsword: MARTY!

Arcanewanderer: thats not my name...

Broadsword: Well its the best i've got at the moment.

Broadsword: look, Drifter just answer the orginal question.

Arcanewanderer:...i really want to tell you to talk a walk right now Arthur.

Arcanewanderer: So I am, go walk you ass over to your sister and ask her. she's seen parts of last loop when the nightmares overwhelm me and while your getting your Void damned answer. apologize for me.

So, how are the Tots handling everything?

Pou lanmou pou-

So uh, one of the tots made the ice.

Fuck... they've begun gaining their powers and we're getting wild cards.

[valm-arcane]

Got to run a mission with Aoi today. It went, shockingly well. But she always was the kindest of the Hex.

[valm-arcane]

Just a heads up I did make it back safe. The hex just haven't really left me alone since. I think there worried I might vanish again.

[valm-arcane]

hey just for clarities sake while am not on Haitus, I do have a friend going though some real rough medical shit so that's why I've slowed down so much. <3 am not going anywhere but they need help and am around ^^. love the people who love you folks.

[valm-arcane]

[valm-arcane]

You! Yeah, You!

You want more people to do Warframe RP with? Want somewhere to just chat with others OCs?

Then this is the place for you!

[valm-arcane]

Oh little spider devied by a cuckoo it isn't the wizard setting you walls aflame :)

Consider

Drifter and Operator picking up the mannerism not just of Warframes but those around them.

Both of them are needed in the labs, and something goes wrong and Operator goes off like a Ventkid with some Ostron curses mixed in for flavor while Drifter curses in Tenochtitlán, and then a few Brittanic swears. Loid is baffled and Tagfer is taking notes on things to call Albrecht.

Operator stands like their frames certainly but there are times, when they're quietly thinking, they fold their arms and tilt their head and Drifter snorts because they look like a little mini-Loid.

Drifter stands like a soldier, Arthur says as much, but it's not until Drifter stands next to Umbra that they realize they stand like a Dax.

Little things, here and there, of people they love slipping in and shaping them to different people.

[valm-arcane]

So Dominus Thrax showed up in the Dormizone. The Bratty King was informed of... Arcane's current unavailablity. Well after he stopped screaming in horror at my being on the Zariman.

[valm-arcane]
