it's been a while since The Thing to Know
i had enough of a clear purpose that i decided it was time to go go go
basically what tipped the scales into starting this thing when i did was Mission 006 ended up being written first
the (L)Aura idea was so dumb that i loved it immediately and wracked my brain for a way to include my earlier idea from around december if i recall, the babies
of course, elephant in the room is that there were two mini-Things in December and March, for Christmas and St. Patrick's Day
so it hasn't been a while really
the character of (L)Aura made me realize just how often i write the word "well"
Mission 026 was adapted from an idea i had beforehand, so the intro is a bit different; he's the original notes:
"oh you will do as i say, because in your hands hangs the very life of MEREDITH!!!" "wait, who?" "meredith, with whom you share a rich history" "i've never heard of anyone named meredith" "it's been implied throughout the story that you and meredith share a rich history" "what? when?" "i implied it just now; multiple times, in fact" "that's not how anything works" "oh? let's ask meredith then" ____ presses a button, revealing a chained-up Meredith.
then as normal
Mission 052: "but what about metals that don't conduct electricity like lead and tungsten"
Irona doesn't know about these properties and assumes that all metals conduct electricity despite having complete control and domain over all metal
this is par the course for our cast
