Greetings, all. Alex here, filling in for Steph MuJi.

First off, as I have your attention, I want to thank everyone who took my Gaslight idea and ran with it in as many directions as possible.

From lil_green_apple: How do your pups get along in your head?

In my case, they don't really have much to do with each other. Knox sees Kirk, and moves along, having never been a Trekkie. Kirk is respectful of reporters but keeps his distance. Gibbs might get along with Kirk but there is too much time between their eras. I think Knox and Gibbs might make decent drinking buddies.

What goes on in YOUR heads?

If we're talking actually in my head... they don't really interact. They're not active in my head that way. I do get flashes of character reactions to ideas and conversations and so forth -- hello, character-bleed! -- but other than that I'm not aware of them in my head that way, and they certainly don't interact. They're all separate little corners of my brain.

Millicanonically... well, I try to avoid having to thread them together. *grin* This despite the fact that several of them do know each other, because I plan well.

River and Regan really should thread more, except that I am no good at RPsterbation; there are IC reasons why they don't thread much, but still. *sheepish* Anyway, they both love each other a lot, but Regan didn't really understand her daughter in some key ways before the Academy thing and understands her even less now, and they both know it. So there's a certain level of awkwardness, and distance because of it.

Piotr and River get along great. They were really fun to thread, back when I didn't play them both! Now... they still get along well when then interact, but it's offscreen unless plot demands otherwise. *grin* Piotr is kind of a big brother to the world, and River's on the list of people he's especially fond and protective of.

Edmund and Piotr had a fascinatingly awkward relationship in which they were both kind of jealous of each other over Kitty issues. It was great fun and made me headdesk affectionately at them, and I am very glad Edmund was retired before I adopted Piotr, because playing both sides of that would have hurt my head a lot.

I don't think any of the others have met, unless we get into oldschool stuff with Will and Alain. (Who met each other, and Alain knew River too, but mostly they knew of each other through their other friends for obvious reasons.) I can speculate about how they would get along, and some of them do know of each other's existence or have probably seen the other around the bar somewhere, but the issue hasn't come up in-game.
