I've already mentioned it to a couple people aka the ones on his Visit List but he's gonna be in the infirmary's private room while this goes on and there is ample opportunity if anybody else wants to get yelled at or violenced while things are bad, lol
it's gonna be a bad time for him but this is something I've been building to for a while and I think it will be an interesting/important period for his character arc
ultimately begging the question 'what does it mean to be free and what does it mean if you can't get there'
anyway if you want to do a scene pertaining to this and I haven't hit you up already, please let me know
also also forgot to mention his sister Prudence is gonna surprise visit for this so if you want CR with her for whatever reason that's a possibility
let's figure out things!! he's going to make an announcement at some point just so people know like. not to look for him etc while he's fucked off for a bit
so things could come out of that if u like
he'll also probably put someone in charge (Jayce??) of the siege weapon drills & maintenance while he takes a minute
tourmalinguine if this is amenable to you
aye aye capn! jayce will prob be internally flustered and fret about not disappointing him lol
would you like to do a 1:1 where barrow is asking him to take over temporarily?
astrid will come visit!! and then maybe a stephen thing towards the end when they have to call it?
haha he will be Upset at visitors showing up who aren't approved but that doesn't mean they can't do it
when he made his list for stephen the rules were no women or children, too bad that's like all of his friends
who are you calling children
clarisse can show up just to fight him
get a guy arrested once and you're no longer his friend
he is only offended because women aren't allowed to visit
the only people on the visit list are Mobius and Lazar
the first one because he's good at talking him down and the second one because he's probably the only person in Riftwatch who could physically restrain him without magic
is it really a list when there's only two people on it. he should have given a Don't Visit list with everyone else on it instead
what if he breaks out and goes on the lam so he can have encounters with everyone who would otherwise respect his wishes
not really that'd require people ot be irresponsible
maybe (if Julie is ok with it) Stephen underestimates how strong he actually is and he manages to break containment into the main infirmary
and has to at least be talked down
since right now that's the whole team, just the two on the "list" and Stephen
and it could actually very realistically break bad within those limits lmao
i want him crashing through walls and windows
esp if he slugs out mobius which we have already discussed
just barrow shaped holes through a bunch of consecutive walls
I don't want the fallout to be TOO horrible for him wrt feeling bad and having hurt people but I'm ok with an incident or two, especially if it's all kind of combined into one
and if he's like restrained and unlisted people visit that's fine
especially if he for instance breaks the door off
i for one am looking forward to punching barrow in the liver, which will really help their friendship
they're going to really learn about each other as people
asd;kf;lk barrow and lazar trash the infirmary in a kaiju vs mech fight
yeah no i am not in line for actual damage to any of my guys, bastien can toss him a cookie through a crack in the door and shout je t'aime while already running from the cops
more generally i am psyched that youre pulling the trigger on this and into the themes, as u know. also prudence. i demand prudence cr on someone.
yesss breaking containment and then having to be Restrained Even More Than Expected works for me! could even happen at a time when stephen’s stepped out but mobius/lazar/whichever are on watch, so stephen can’t chip in and play the magic card
I'm trying to find a pb for Prudence and the struggle is eternal bc I don't know enough middle-aged desi actresses who aren't Bollywood-affiliated and therefore smokin hot
I need a lady who's the right age and looks like she's had fifteen kids and worked on a farm her whole life
(this is also a struggle with European-looking people if you don't know where to look for extras)
thanks google images this is exactly what I needed.

you're right AI is the future
this made me too annoyed, I give up
Prudence looks like a person. a hypothetical early-50's sister of Naveen Andrews
won't someone cast Sarita Choudhury as an exasperated farmer for Cami
in that case her costuming in The Green Knight may be helpful to you
more so than, like, Fallout
