Welp, I've arrived to the choice between Cats and Snakes in light fingers without deciding which one I want to pick-

So I want to ask people who've played it or are playing and already know which one they want, what was your in-character reason for picking either one? (i imagine that if I ask about ooc I'm going to get a lot of "I wanted to be a cat" lmao)

Any thoughts on the ostensibly cis kid collecting as many pronouns as possible?

"Good for alpha."

"I wouldn't say this to a stranger's face, but let's come back in a year and see whether it's still cis," Hallie says in what can only be described as an extremely knowing gender hoarder voice.

Skyward!vivi, do you remember a student named Cavellia?

"Ah, yes, I remember pop." Vivi grins. "It's not often the cube test is a challenge for me."

[elakha-house-cube]

Skyward!Vivi any thoughts on your student Neo Riptide?

"Aws. Riptide needs to learn some maturity. But rip is only 15, that's natural at rips age. Hopefully, the next few years here at Skyward will do the trick."

Skyward!Vivi, remember when Richard tried to take the box test? Any thoughts?

"The box test is to determine the contents without opening it," Vivi says. "He opened it. It's a test of resourcefulness and creativity, and all he proved is brute strength."

I'm kinda shocked the guy is a Nexus at all.

"Oh, you of all people know there's no rule against a total dick getting superpowers."

Fair enough... ... Hey waitasec, what are you implying -

[elakha-house-cube]

oh look at the time, it's time for my daily periodic oc fact:

so y'know, like most flpcs, Inessa is a member of God's Editors. the game just kinda drops that on your head once you become posi, doesn't it? but she's not actually Christian, she's contributing to the revisions as purely an intellectual exercise. (after death and tax evasion, she's been looking for good places to address the rat situation.)

i haven't really worked out what she is religiously. the most reliable single predictor of someone's religion is their parents' religion, but Inessa doesn't exactly have parents

[elakha-house-cube]

Hey Vivi meet a fellow cat lover

"Huh, her cats have nearly the same set of names as mine! What an odd coincidence."

More like you have the same author. Or, well, McCay here and your Maris self do. You know.

[elakha-house-cube]

one of the better methods to accumulate menaces for hallowmas is to equip a woesel and blather about The Name with the duchess

so now i've got this image in my head of Inessa and The World's Shittiest Weasel standing there next to a sign reading "Hear About The Most Terrifying And Illegal Things Ever! -Free!" and she's just going on and on about how hungry she is and how she's gonna eat her own teeth and the reckoning won't be postponed all that

she only has so much to say, she starts repeating herself after like ten minutes, but everyone is too busy running away and screaming to notice it

[elakha-house-cube]

today's daily oc fact starts with a flashback to yesterday's oc fact:

so she'd remember.

and if you were here yesterday you may have been wondering: what exactly is Inessa remembering?

she got that headband from a childhood friend on the surface who basically raised her. yeah she didn't have parents -- i mean literally she obviously did, but... well, she assumes they abandoned her and/or died, but she has literally no memories of them, it's not like she can confirm this

oh and the friend. they didn't make it to the neath. they didn't even make it to adulthood.

[elakha-house-cube]

"daily" oc fact i was never expecting to actually think of oc facts every single day but i was expecting to keep it up for at least like. a week before i just forgot

Inessa has dreamed of being a cat since she was seven, so, y'know, lucky for her that she went light fingers

when she went to the neath she brought a cat-ear headband that she hadn't actually worn since she was a teenager. so she'd remember.

@ Everynyan

"True. I do need all the cats."

"Mooooom..."

[elakha-house-cube]

Skyward!Vivi- you're really good at analyzing things to understand how they work, right? Plz examine this. -Hands her the Rooster Miraculous-

Vivi gazes at the thumb ring with the combination of awe and terror normally reserved for observing the innermost workings of a deadly machine. ... Then again, maybe that's exactly what she's doing.

She takes several seconds to snap out of her reverie. "That... is something very dangerous. Its potential in the hands of someone with even an inkling of what it can do..." She hands it back to Kira. "I shouldn't have this. It's too... I just shouldn't have this."

[elakha-house-cube]

We saw this character headcanon generator on our dash and

Inessa bullies kids on roblox.

"On what now? ... Those contraptions don't even exist yet!"

Inessa desperately needs a hug but doesn't know it and refuses to ask for one.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I have a perfectly normal amount of physical contact which isn't fighting."

... how does she manage to be touch-starved when she's married to nearly everyone in London?

She's very skilled at ignoring her own needs.

"You hush up!"

Inessa is not allowed to drink energy drinks.

"Listen, I only did science while overcaffeinated once, and the resulting damage has since been completely repaired."

Inessa is very willing to eat inedible things.

"Am I? Or does society have an overly narrow understanding of the definition of 'edible'?"

Inessa can't sit in a chair properly.

"I must object to that characterization -- if I'm comfortable, then I am sitting properly!"

Inessa wears Hello Kitty socks.

"... This is true."

And below the cut, some further interesting ones we couldn't make a Bit out of:

Inessa believes in ghosts and insists on trying to summon one at every sleepover.

Inessa is a great artist.

Inessa has incredible spice tolerance.

Inessa has a stuffed animal under their bed.

Inessa had an emo phase.

Inessa is a switch.

> Is there a canon character who would die for your OC?

this ask for main inessa and leaf

Inessa: Well, the Oft-Offed Revenuer would die for her, but probably not on purpose. ... Yeah I don't really remember the canon characters in this game, I can think of like three and none of them are that close to her. I guess the Jovial Contrarian would die for Inessa if she was trying to sacrifice herself for him, out of, y'know, contrarianism.

Leaf: Not at this point in the story, exactly -- Lloyd would risk his life to save anyone in the party, but he's not specifically attached to Leaf like that yet. At some point Raine will reach that level, though. Which is problematic and/or amusing since Leaf will at that point be willing to die for Raine.

failure for inessa? - @honeymongering :)

What's your OC's greatest failure? Have they been able to move past it? Does anyone else know about it?

:thonking: I should probably define her pre-London backstory more... but you remember that murder story in the University where your options are "cover up the culprit" or "try to expose the murderer but accomplish nothing"? She picked the second option, and to this day remains convinced that she could have brought about some actual justice if she'd just did... something different. (What, exactly? She has no idea, but she's sure it's something.)

She doesn't dwell on it as much as she once did, but some days it completely puts her off going to the laboratory.

[elakha-house-cube]

Convo on discord made me think; how well does your fallen london OC react to the cold? Do they bundle up or try to brave it?
