@Talvi:
That sucks. Hope things finally get back into order eventually. I'm really happy that you have a job, though.
It's not quite what I expected. :\ Apparently my skills as a 3D modeler far outweigh my skills as a programmer. Not something I was happy with finding out, but, eh.
link to a stuff i made.I'll list you as 'against' for one of the Frogs becoming a vamp. (Poop.) I'd like to pretend that your opinion on the matter doesn't mean much, but as far as I'm concerned yours is pretty much second only to Splint's (comes with the territory of being awesome). I guess I just don't like the idea of my characters growing old and dying, as immature as it sounds; this is the first time I've ever really had to come to terms with that.
Hey, think about it this way. Mr Frog would be absolutely bored out of his mind in peacetime, when there was nobody to experiment on, and nothing useful to do. He's a time traveler, and he has access to time travel devices... ;] Between stories, it's not really cheating.
Vanya has a bit of a free pass in that respect, although it was unintended. :\ She's immortal, being an elf. I hadn't intended it that way, because I honestly didn't mean for her to be anything but a narrator for Talvi at first, but... hey. Gift horse's mouth, right?
In defense, I do think it'd be cool to have the two Frogs become dramatically-different characters now that it's been brought up, and having one become a vampire (a decision which the other would likely not approve of) would factor into that. And there'd still be the clone Frog if you need a more Badass-Normal-y character.
I strongly agree with you here, as I stated above.
Like I said, it sounds very much like OG!Frog to become a vampire, simply for the sake of immortality. Maybe the other one could develop some sort of longevity potion... Sounds like Mr Frog to do something like that, actually.
I don't like the way the two Frogs have developed in my absence, no, but that's more because it wasn't my decision than anything else. This may come as a shock to some people, but I am ever so slightly a control freak. Now that I'm more-or-less back in the saddle (or at least on my way there), though, I'm willing to work with the decisions others made in my absence.
That was my fault. :\ You told me I could do what I felt needed to be done because you were done writing... lol e.e Buttttttt, I think I took it a little too far. :\ I'm really sorry about that. It wasn't my intention, it just kind of evolved that way.
E: Also, that bolded-underlined rant wasn't directed at any of your characters, Talvi, trust me.
That distinction falls to me. My piece was unremarkable at best, and I don't have much time to commit to my own projects anymore, so don't expect to see much of me round these parts. I'll just enjoy whatever you all put together from now on. It's been quite a ride to say the least.
Hey, don't go! Great to have you here. (: I'm just about positive your piece wasn't what Mr Frog was talking about when he posted that little rant (which was justified, in my opinion, by the way).
EDIT:
Let me put it another way. Firebreathing rabbits siege the fortress. At the same time, your goats start breathing fire and set all your dwarves aflame. One of your dwarves decides to spray webs everywhere to "kill" the intruders, and gets everybody stuck. Then you get a bird of some sort flying in (of course, the radiation made it webimmune one way or another) and it pecks all your dwarves to death because it's gone berserk. Everything was nuts in that version - it was impossible to survive past year five IF you were lucky. I had fortresses fall before year two ended, and most of my vanilla fortresses never fall, reaching year 20 or higher.
