but some open options for everybody
i'm laughing at him talking to tendi
he's just gonna jiggle her a little and see what intel falls out
Outing Gojyo's booty call, Jedao!
he is a man of moral compromises
but also it's different if Gojyo didn't actually tell them, hakkai just figured it out
so that's not breaking a confidence 
sam just here like "jesus christ what did that asshole do now"
Gojyo's going to be mortified, thanks.
if Jedao could talk about it with Gojyo directly he would have done that first but he was pretty sure it wouldn't work!!!
anyway he never intends to mention this, he just needed to rule out anything nefarious before telling Gojyo he's dumb and has bad taste
so now they get to be gossipy fuckers about it
"I already know I'm dumb and have bad taste" - Gojyo probably
/readies popcorn for that Malcolm tag
he's helping! he's been helpful!
sorry buddy, this is not the validation you're looking for
Typical!
CK: Be Jealous!!!!
Jedao, shoveling popcorn in his mouth and looking disrespectfully: omg i ship it so hard
Hakkai would also be a little mortified (but. like. glad that Jedao thought to check because mind control has still not occurred to him as a possibility to be concerned about here)
Excuse my flipflpping I had to look up whether Chess existed in Forgotten Realms
*flipflopping
In some fantasy settings it just doesn't
See I was here like "hey inmates. What's the stupidest thing a warden has ever said to you" like "...is Jedao specifically anticipating shade on Malcolm or would that just be a lovely surprise". Indeed there isn't any so far. Yet.
Because he’s helpful now! 
That and Walter isn’t here to say “learn the weak points on a vampire so u can learn to literally or metaphorically poke them in the eye”
honestly Jedao expects at least one inmate to pop up with something he's said to them just to be sassy
Yeah you called it. That really is what he'd say
he's casting a wide net on purpose for a variety of reasons, if he only got malcolm he would actually be disappointed. he already knows malcolm pisses people off, that isn't new or useful intel
come on guys, don't you want a free excuse to complain
When something's locked to a particular filter (like the inmate filter), does it say that anywhere that people reading the post can see? Or does this just appear to only inmates as a post from Jedao?
I don't know that it's ever been 100% rule clarified but I believe it's always been played that way, since characters can change the privacy level for their own responses (respond to an open post with a private thread or vice versa) so it makes sense that they could tell what the current level is
so it would probably be like 'from Jedao, viewable by OP + all inmates' but you could reply private or on the wider filter depending on what discussion you wanted
That makes sense!
And a follow-up question, I guess... could an inmate post something that was warden filter locked?
yeah, sure! it wouldn't let them see anything else on the warden filter but it would let only wardens see & respond
Otherwise Jedao and Sebastian's agreement to let each other see everything on their respective group's filter would get very time-consuming.
gotcha gotcha, thanks!
/flings Maggie at this
time for her and Jedao to bond, maybe?
Maggie: "underneath all the hugs and cookies, I know my angles"
She's not Shuos level or anything, but "contingency planning is a love language" felt like a very Maggie thing to say
he appreciates her!!
...oops, I forgot to mention one of her virus precautions
MAGGIE HAS GONE FOR OVERKILL on that front
Finally tagging into this last, whoops, but I love how many people have Vash to thank for the dumbest thing they've heard. He's getting the message out!
Jedao expected to get a couple of his own quotes, but he does think it's a little funny that it's been All Demotions so far
sorry y'all couldn't hack it...
I'm losing it at the "screw Vash for saying suicide is never the answer" gang. Unfortunately it's the barge
Vash just said it out loud and particularly tactlessly
It'd be near impossible to pry it out of Gojyo, but it amuses me how Sam is like
"Armand never ever takes direct action in his relationships".
Meanwhile, Armand: /has initiated every single step in his and Gojyo's relationship after Gojyo suggested they go drinking
"Armand never ever takes direct action in his relationships".
Meanwhile, Armand: /has initiated every single step in his and Gojyo's relationship after Gojyo suggested they go drinking
poor CK trying so hard to make Jedao jealous and he's just doing the full Buddy Christ Thumb's Up at them
"Whew, we did Playful Banter without anyone shouting or bursting into tears" - Jedao and Gojyo both, probably
real
Both of them bantering with cold sweat trickling down their faces.
Malcolm says thumbs up to Gojyo bc playful banter never works when he does it. you cracked it, buddy!!
For all of Gojyo's flaws, he is much more of a people person than Malcolm.
(And it helps that he and Jedao are both trying their damnest not to fight.)
for Hakkai 
Hakkai does appreciate it!
Jedao is feeling a little wibbly because Eiffel used to always call him Big Guy 
but it feels right!!! sign of inclusion
or something
Fitting with how Hakkai thinks of Eiffel as basically Gojyo With More Chill.
Eiffel, 5'10 and stocky took one look at Jedao 5'7 and pure muscle and went "Oh that's a big guy" and meant it with his whole chest
Ten years from now when Jedao, Hakkai and Gojyo are all happily married and Eiffel drops by to visit, Gojyo's going to nickname him Ant Guy or something like that.
So tiny.
Eiffel is Baby
Jedao has not totally given up on the possibility of seducing Eiffel into part time custody
he thinks Eiffel would be good for Gojyo too (but then Jedao has a hard time thinking Eiffel would be bad for anyone)
honestly the instant Eiffel has the ability to travel to their world no effort he'd be over almost constantly
he can't live without 21st century media but he wants Jedao and Hakkai in his life so much
I have slide in here and apologize for last night's tags i sent off xD I was half asleep so if they dont make any sense, thats why
Eiffel ends up weirdly bonding with Quentin as the two Earth Boys but also Quentin is definitely has some Hakkai-like Introvert Precision Extremely Powerful energy and Jedao-like gentle earnestness and it gets the tiniest bit Weird
Jedao out here like: if I can't fuck my hot stepdad, you cannot fuck my hot stepdad
Quentin: 1000% oblivous
Godric: Imma fuck your hot stepdad
Jedao: s i g h 
he's happy for them but he does nail J1 with a water balloon about it during a family scavenger hunt or something later
Sorry, buddy. J2 does get lots of dad time, though!
J1 does get a little jealous that Godric...not exactly that he's J2's favorite parent, but how relaxed J2 is with him and like. Lets Himself Be Baby
but it's good for him probably
Godric babies the HELL out of J2, too. that circus breach really imprinted on him and he carried that far
Taura wants to spoil J2, she's itching to get her hands on him and be good to him.
he'll be very like. sweet and shy around her at first, I think
so cute, Taura will adore him
notJoe I'm so sorry he's like this sdgksngsad
they are not friends! 
Jedao being overpowered and confident and socially powerful ... Is this wrong
Everyone else on the inmate filter just popcorning this.
quantumvelvet: Yup! It's absolutely open to the whole inmate population.
Eiffel's casual friendliness is for sure one of the things that pinged Hakkai as reminding him of Gojyo
so that makes sense!!
(also "old man" is on the table for Eiffel, he's got like six years or so on Hakkai 
)
)
notJoe: shipoftheseus: ....I want to threadjack so hard
I'm okay wiht it if you are!
absolutely!
in fact, here's a great spot.
SORRY. I got distracted.
work is work
vash -> jedao -> varker for the next couple replies?
works for me
and sorry if im slow!!!
I'll be commuting soon probably so (shrug emoji)
...actually I think Jedao would keep quite and let Varker respond to that; it seems like it's a lot more about Varker's existing campaign to get through to Vash than it is about defending him, so he doesn't feel like it's his place to either chime in or demur
I will tag back then ♡ ping if he would jump in?
also i messaged you on disco Isa, for the Varker and Jedao thread when you get home ♡
and naw, Varker thinks that Vash does have some right to speak up for himself, doesnt have the whole story and thinks that Jedao can defend himself. poking Vash is the important part.
shipoftheseus: checking in on whether jedao has anything to say yet!
I Feel Like This Isn't About Me - feat. Bayne Gibby ...
he might apologize in a tag or two if vash digs in about his stuff in specific
Unlikely!
But let's see how it goes~
but yeah y'all are good to carry on
checking in again, if for some reason Jedao wants to interrupt at this most exciting and revealing moment
he has spiritually, though not literally, snuck away to get popcorn
but I'm home now and thank you for checkin in <3
pffft Jedao just 
he wouldn't DREAM of interrupting Varker when he's clearly put so much effort into nailing this conversation down
this is important! varker has feelings!
Varker has so many feelings
Now Jedao might jump in, unless you want to get another reply from Varker in first, BBitsaboi ?
go ahead ♡
I just popped off
