train spring cleaning + trish or any of cooler passione?

The Train...Is big. This is a fact that is so obvious that it becomes easy to overlook, right up to the point where it becomes an issue.

Because the Train. Is big.

The Casino Car still needs internal repairs. The Caboose needs internal and external repairs. Al is dead. There's more damage all along the place, cars that need minor repairs, cars that need major repairs, cars with things like Jason saying there's some kind of car? With an arm monster thing in it? That one is pretty up there in Trish's list of priorties to try and do something about, so long as they can actually figure out which one it is.

Then there's that library car with the giant spider where they met Fugo. Trish gets the feeling that that one is technically working as intended, but also if they hadn't met Fugo there to free him and he hadn't had the option of falling back on Purple Haze then he probably could've died in there, so. That's another for the list of "Cars that need to be decomissioned". Which means prying information out of the Amelias about how to do that without it becoming yet another conflict.

Then there's the question of what they're even going to repair anything with. She's seen the outside. There's nothing there.

(Is there nothing there because of the Train? She doesn't know. She has no way of knowing.)

Somewhere behind her she can hear Jason and Shoka arguing over the list they've been putting together. Either they've gotten quieter or the painkillers Shoka produced for her from some other car with a gentle smile have started kicking in.

She slumps a little in her chair, her breath coming easier at the thought. She's the Conductor now. This is her home now. She's got to do right by it. But she has friends she can trust to help her with it, be it for a short while or longer if they choose to stay. She doesn't have to figure it all out on her own.

Many hands make light work, and God only knows there's a lot of work to be done.

The beta test for Infinity Nikki is coming up on Monday/Tuesday, so for any current Shining Nikki players who got into the Reunion Playtest, have lots of fun!

I think one of the towns you get to visit has ghosts? Perfect for October. I look forward to seeing all the pictures and stylings!

9, 19, and 20?

9. tell a story about your childhood

One of my earliest memories is of being told to glue colorful paper onto a sheet to make butterflies. But the teacher handed out two pink semicircles for the wings, which bugged me (lol) because butterflies notoriously have two pairs of wings. So I had to re-cut them into the anatomically correct shape. When I was done a fellow kid told me it turned out horrible because I'd drawn a face on the head of the butterfly and "butterflies don't have faces". I genuinely thought he deserved to die for that. So even 16 years ago I was Like That.

19. favourite thing about the day?

There are things to do!

20. favourite things about the night?

Nobody expects you to be available.

For Caoimhe because I love an artificer: 1, 14, 31, 38, and 68?

1: why did they choose their class(es)? their subclass(es)?

In terms of class, she was always going to be some kind of magic user due to a combination of fascination with magic and desire to affect the world through sheer willpower, and it was going to be either wizard or artificer because she'd find any of the classes drawing on another source of power very unsatisfying; that wouldn't be her doing it, in her view, it would just be her cashing in favours with a divinity/warlock patron, and if she's not figuring shit out for herself then there's no point to it for her.

Subclass was an easy choice, alchemist is the artificer subclass with least combat focus (and prior to her flunking out of academia and joining an adventuring party, she had no interest at all in combat) and most opportunity to fuck around.

14: what is something they love about themself?

I think she'd have a hard time answering this one, not because she has low self esteem - it's generally pretty high outside of temporary hits taken when she's freshly messed something up - but because she doesn't spend much time reflecting on her personality, she's much more interested in what she can do. I'd say she loves just the experience of being herself more than she loves any particular trait of hers. Maybe what she likes most about herself is her willingness to dive into things, though she'd put it in terms of loving the experience of diving into things. At least when she hasn't just dove into something in a way that got someone hurt, at which point she will temporarily switch to hating that about herself, but probably not enough to change it (and she'll come back around to loving it as soon as she starts getting positive consequences again).

31: they’re given a blank piece of paper–what do they do with it?

She'd be very happy to no longer have to scribble maps or anything else she wants to copy/remember onto her arm or waste her abilities imprinting them onto surfaces not really meant to contain text/images. Please do give her paper! She'd be very grateful! And slightly less covered in smudged ink!

38: what do they smell like?

Mud and various chemicals.

68: what was the best moment of their life?

Well she was definitely pretty stoked the first time she got an infusion to work. Or maybe the first time she was given free reign in a proper lab.

Also I really do like infinity Nikki it is buggy like of course it’s the beta and I’m testing it out on a tablet so the quality isn’t the best but I am enjoying it. I do have some issues with it but for that I have to try and test it out on a computer to see if it’s just a skill issue or an actual problem anyways here some pics
