Daily Routines & Handwaved CR Meme, VOLUME 2

Handwaved CR Meme

The passengers have been living on this ship for a while now, and it's likely that they've fallen into certain habits and routines. Little things have become part of their day, from lunch dates with friends, to quiet nights in the library, or long-standing blood feuds. Even the newest passengers have likely found themselves some common haunts and familiar faces. This is a meme to talk about, flesh out, and collaborate on some of those behind-the-scenes moments and routines!

1. Post a comment with your character's name & cabin number in the header, and give us an idea of what sort of things they get up to around the ship! Be as detailed or as vague as you'd like.
2. Talk about what kind of handwaved CR you can inspire! Is your character the type to stop and chat with friends on the promenade? Are they consistently the highest score on multiple arcade cabinets? IDK, you tell me!
3. When you look at other characters' routines, you might notice some moments that line up! Even if your characters are total strangers, they might see each other at the buffet every day, or maybe they're unwittingly competing for the high score on DDR. And close CR might mean weekly dinners, book clubs, sparring sessions every morning... like I said, this is where you shine!!
4. This is also a good chance to handwave characters exchanging contact information, generating some more inbox threads!

TLDR: write about your character's life on the ship and then compare notes with other people, find CR, ???, profit

(Last meme, for those who might need it!)

Noticing humans being sneaky was a survival skill for Bastion early in life and they've held onto the habit of paying attention as best they can to who's in their presence (to the point of unhealthy neuroticism), so I think they would have seen Cassandra sneaking around at least once, but if she's a skilled sneaker she could have successfully snuck past them at least once as well. They're hypervigilant but their senses aren't dramatically more acute than a human's beyond having access to zoom and thermal imaging. If they noticed her, they wouldn't make it obvious by waving or staring or flinching, but she might notice them keeping her in view of their main optic or subtly moving out of her line of sight.

I can see that. Would you have any interest in having them meet on the subject of sneakery?

[configuration_birdwatcher]

Sorry I took so long to answer this! They should absolutely meet on that.

Excellent! I'll probably have a new top-level for Cassandra sometime soon.
