CONSTELLATION ANON THREAD MINGLE

[comstellation]

HOW THIS WORKS:

-Your characters are participating in this encrypted MirrorNet conversation anonymously, with no identification beyond their CODENAMES as assigned when they signed up. For example, Count Dooku will appear in this thread only as ANTARES, and Raina will appear only as MAIA. Put your codename in the subject line of your first comment in a thread!
-The Stars know everyone's IDs, naturally
-All commments are visible only to this conversation by default, but can be made PRIVATE to particular individuals or groups if desired
-All tags are through text, or voice-scrambled audio
-Characters can guess at who people really are behind their codenames, like at a masquerade ball. However, the characters in question are under no obligation to confirm or deny those guesses
-Since this is an off-comm contact post, nothing in these threads will be usable for activity check
-You can still participate if your character has not ICly been recruited into the organization yet: just specify that your thread is FORWARD-DATED as you tag

ANTARES - TEXT

[dun_moch]

Greetings, new recruits. Welcome to the Constellation.

You may call me Antares. I am one of the leaders of this organization. Together, we shall create a new future for imPorts: one where no one controls us.

[morethan084]

I'm not sure everyone will want that. Some people like to be controlled.

[sleight_of_hand]

Okay, this is actually a legit question, even if it doesn't sound that way:

If we meet each other in public, do we have to wear hooded cloaks or something?

[ Look, he's not used to this secret society stuff, okay? ]

[brushoff]

I do hope that this brave new world allows for a little bit of levity along the way. Us merry wanderers of the night don't really react well to things like 'boredom' and 'dullness.'

[ and this is the point where Dooku seriously reconsiders letting Dorian in the organization ]

Sucks to be whoever got stuck with Uranus.

[Great contribution.]

[sleight_of_hand]

Shut up.

[ Dooku, he fucking hates you so much right now. ]

It's not like I'm the one that chose it.

Ill met by moonlight, fair Constellation. I must say, whoever's picking these pseudonyms did a marvelous job. I'm halfway tempted to slip into verse myself!

[ and now Dorian realizes why supervillains do what they do. ]

Uranus - Text

[sleight_of_hand]

Renewing my objection to this bullshit code name.

[brushoff]

Fussy, fussy, fussy! Whining about it will only make the name stick harder, you know.

[hostage]

You're welcome.

[dun_moch]

Uranus is a powerful god in the mythology of Earth. Perhaps you received your title as a form of praise.

[Or not.]

[ SIRIUS ]

[hostage]

Wow. We really collected the best and the brightest.

[morethan084]

You picked us, sir and or madam.

[Like she isn't sitting next to him on his bed.]

[brushoff]

Not from the stars did you your judgment pluck-
any sort of complaining about the choices is all on you, my friend.

Private

[dun_moch]

They are raw and unformed at the moment. Improvements in discipline will be necessary to make them the force we truly need.

PROSPERO - TEXT (forward-dated)

[jacksonian]

Is this a damn social club or are we actually going to get down to business?

[brushoff]

!!!

[ yes, Dorian did seriously type out three exclamation points. ]

The magician himself! Criminality acquaints a man with strange bedfellows.

[ someone stop him, he is having way too much fun. ]

[sleight_of_hand]

Sheesh, don't wad up your panties. Thing's'll happen when they happen.

[dun_moch]

Quite right. I am pleased to see one of us has priorities in mind.

Our first task is to expand our resources and explore new allies. We will not launch any ambitious operations until our position is secure.

IO - TEXT - (dated for before the blackout plot)

[driftsintobuffetline]

How do you do, fellow criminals people of questionable moral choices? what are we up to this fine evening?

Mars - Text

[darkimitation]

I'm looking for people to spar with and making my presence known, otherwise I don't care about what anyone talks about.

PROMETHEUS - text

[lempereur]

I would like to address you all to say that I am humbled by your acceptance. I hope that we may work together for the betterment of all our fellow imPorts, and keep us free from those who would aim to shackle us.

Mars - text

[generalgrievous]

It looks like many of you are in need of special combat training. I am here, now, to offer that service.

State your weapon of choice to me and a meeting will soon be arranged through our gracious and powerful leader Antares.


(ooc: A new Mars! There may be some confusion.)

ROCINANTE - TEXT (forward dated)

[lizard]

New kid on the block. Thanks for the opportunity.

Here to provide whatever you need. Weapons, mostly. Willing to expand. You need something illegal or otherwise hard to come by, I'm your guy. I'll see what I can do -
so long as it's for the good of the mission.
