Ned Poins ought to be taught poker, and then strip poker. Who would be up for that?

Not helpful!!

On the other hand, once he knows it, Autor will so be made to play...

He'd die first. Exsanguination via the ears; very messy.

Well, it can be straight poker first. For pennies. And then, when the pennies are finished...

*cackle* As far as I can recall, he has taken his blazer off only a few times in bar--injuries, turning into a kitten, Little!Rae's trauma...

Self-conscious kid is self-conscious, and may end up getting really serious and competitive in order to avoid a another time.

Poins sitting there in a towel with Autor smirking on, impeccably dressed, would be fun as well...

Just mentioning again, if you ever want crack (or plot development coming from crack or something odd) the Warehouse is full of Things That Do Odd Things.

If you have an idea for something you'd like to happen to your character, drop me or [personal profile] minkhollow a line! We'd love to work with you!

Or, frankly, if anyone has a vague idea for a bar-wide thing, let us know, we can probably find a way for it to happen.

Somehow, the idea of a Hannibal Lecter related artifact keeps pestering my undirected general plot thoughts from time to time. If he were real in the W13 world, something from his possessions would be an artifact conferring perfect pitch along with perfect ruthlessness. I wonder what would happen if Joshua or Helena took something that belongs to Hannibal to their world?

I'm tempted to throw Jess in the Warehouse-verse sometime. Could be fun but it will have to wait until the HYDRA base plot is done.

I for one would love a plot of some kind where Scootaloo finally learns to fly.

Assuming Season Four doesn't establish anything that would keep that from ever happening.

And if it did? Well. Milliways might have something to cheer her up afterwards.

Based on the SDCC panels, it seems Season 4 will address this in some fashion, though we're not sure exactly what fashion that will be.

Oh? Then I shall make it a point to stalk YouTube and the torrents when the episode finally airs.

I'm hoping for "she can fly", but equally interested in what happens if she can't.

available plot device

Karkat found in the Labyrinth a Prospitian cloud atlas. Essentially, it is a big tome of random, contextless prophetic images; snapshots from across time and space.

The images could be from anywhere, any universe, but because of pre-destination and the very nature of prophecy the images in this book are going to be the ones that are relevant to the people who will eventually see the book.

Obviously this is a good source of ominous foreshadowing or baffling images that suddenly make sense when you see them again, in context. Also for flashes of stuff out of the past, maybe from a new perspective or filling in blanks. Probably not good as a major plot driver--random alien kid found a random book in a random dungeon--but that's up to you.

Let me know if you want to stumble across something over his shoulder or when he's away from the table. For bonus points, if you have a visual canon maybe we can put together a graphic of the image you want.

(DISCLAIMER: I am NOT going to use this plotdevice to spoil, cheat, or godmod secret knowledge about other players/canon. Karkat isn't going to stumble across anybody's secret identity. You shouldn't try to use it that way either, unless it's arranged with the other players in the canon and so on. The usual.)

Ooh! This could be interesting, given that prophecy is very much a Thing in the ponyverse. 'Course, given that the next season isn't due to start until after Thanksgiving, it could be a while before this was actually usable...

If there are any preview clips or images from the new season, though, one of those might fit under the "baffling image until you experience it in context" heading!

ooh, good point! I have been trying to avoid spoilering myself, but I'll see what I can dig up.

ETA: If anyone wants specific images 'shopped onto clouds for the purposes of this plot, drop me a line and I'll whip something up.
