Advance Australia Fair [Old World of Darkness]

Reader mode
Wonder if it says something about me that the best part of that whole update for me was the Portal 2 reference...

[X] Step out into the open.

If it's bait might as well chomp down hard. Also emotional reunion and getting our side of the story heard and whatnot.

My first instinct, driven by the human urge to see patterns everywhere, is to suggest that they've somehow stuck Lakshmi with a demigods kindergarten class. They knew what to look for in her, after all, and Dad apparently understood enough of the theory behind godfucking to get involved, despite being functionally a really badass investment banker.

Well yeah but from the way that Dad told it it was a big, super involved thing that required a nofuckingaround Priestess of Lakshmi, Valmiki's help, and some auspicious skies. Nothing that couldn't be then like synthesized by the Union granted but like...I feel like they wouldn't be creaming their pants quite so hard if they had even a stable of knockoff demigods.

I mean this is Australia, the land that wifi forgot after all. And the world of the Masses tends to roughly correlate with the world of Mages in certain ways.

But then monkey-dude.

Mrhm.

Hrm.

Guh.

I bet this is just Meg being jealous because he doesn't look nearly as good :V

More seriously they just sound like chimeric upgrades of various sorts. The transhumanist conventions, y'know.

Well, the real Sun Wukong would have instantly detected us as a demon, beaten us to death against Lakshmi's protests, and then done a victory dance over our mangled corpse and never ever apologise for it.

Then he would have been made a Buddha, because what the fuck else are we going to do with this guy?
 
So this is probably just me thinking too much, but uh, any idea what or who caused us to get dropped in on Mom, Dad, and Lakshmi?

I mean, the odds of the Umbra spitting out a babby Rakshasa at the same time Lakshmi's born by chance seems unlikely, which makes me think whoever actually gave birth to us (assuming that's a thing) wanted to get us out and saw the birth as the perfect chance to get their kid out of harm.

But I'm kinda sleep deprived so, take my rambling with a grain of salt I guess. :V

Watch in horror as his hair clones run amok?
 
Man, now i am hoping he is Sun Wukong.

Indrajit vs Sun Wukong seems too awesome a chance to pass.

(Of course, both of us need a training montage first).
 
If only the monkey man was a gorilla man instead, then I could make an off colour joke about all those people on the internet getting their dicks out for him.
 
[X] Step out into the open.

I'm hoping this choice makes a difference (a long-term one I mean), so I'm not gonna miss any chance to avoid a tragic Brother Vs Sister story.

Oh, we are getting a tragic Brother V. Sister story no matter what.

We do get to decide who gets to inform her that her brother is now a fugitive monster, though.

Well, I'd rather have Meghanada do it himself then. :grin:

EDIT: I mean, it could (read 'will') backfire but I honestly think that it is much better for Lakshmi to discover such thing now and not when the Corporate can spoon feed her only the necessary bits of information they want her to know and only those.

Tbh I'm fine with either, I mean we're probably gonna have to duke it out with her at some point no matter what we do.

Could be, but you all sound a little too resigned to me. Well, if it doesn't end up happening I enstablish my rights to say that I called it. :tongue:

Well i think it's less that we're 'reserved' and more...Idk Lakshmi's already fitting in and would probably be pissed if we told her this is bad.

Well, in the Ramayana Meghanada was killed by Lakshmana. (What were our parents thinking?)

"It sounded like a good idea at the time."
