Plan Cache:
- Ask Keiko if she's willing to come over to optimize her breaking of the Pangolin-Skytower deal.
- Discuss with the family:
- Akane: Suggest ice-making for funding.
- If she's OK, start freezing and we'll sell it outside Leaf.
- Could inter-village adoption (Doigama, Kato...) be plausible?
- Info-gathering:
- Review Jiraiya's notes on 7th path politics.
- Ask Kagome to summarize Akatsuki's book.
- Politicking:
- Schedule a wake to mourn Leaf's fallen heroes.
- Inform Naruto about the vote.
- Snakes:
- Hazou: Learn their culture/predispositions from Summons and Jiraiya's notes.
- Keiko: Message them via Pangolins.
- Send Jiraiya's letter to Orochimaru along (in case he's alive).
- Did Orochimaru leave them his will? Jiraiya wrote him a pardon, we'd want to carry out his wishes.
- We should push for having Asuma take Naruto as an administrative assistant/apprentice when he's Hokage.
- Naruto is still rather useful, what with being groomed for the position, deeply loyal to leaf, very well disposed to the Sarutobi.
- He is still recovering from his ordeal, so some allowances for that would be needed.
- On the other hand as Leaf's resident Naruto summoner he can take care of paperwork, and other administrivia extremely efficiently. Letting you focus on the actual job.
- Meet with Ami. Secure room at the compound (Anti-Hyuuga seals, Silence Mines). Yuuichi waits outside.
- Accept her previous terms: no social games, clear exchange of information and commitments.
- If investigation into disguises bore fruits:
- You possess novel information of major importance to infiltration specialists. Likely unique information.
- You're willing to reveal it for a favour.
- Don't answer any questions about it unless she accepts.
- Spend favour(s):
- (Discuss with Mari first: open-ended or specific? If you have only 1 favour, spend it on power or social?)
- Politics:
- Open-ended: "Work with me to maximize my personal influence on Leaf politics."
- Specific: Assist the Gouketsu against the Hyuuga bloc.
- Social:
- Open-ended: "Maximize my social competence over the next half-a-year".
- Specific: Arrange for IN social training.
Past Major Plans:
Ino, You Know by huhYeahGoodPoint
Sometimes when we're making a plan we have a good idea that's
just outside the temporal scope of the update, but we don't want to cut it from the plan because we might forget by the next cycle. This adds unnecessary words that could have been spent fleshing out the rest of the plan, and may outright cost XP in the worst cases.
This plan cache will hold these subsections so they don't fall into the void between planning cycles. Just ping me with the subsection and, unless it's wildly unreasonable, I'll edit it into the post. I'll keep them there for a while until they either make it into a winning plan, fall out of favour, or the context significantly changes. Depending on circumstances, they might end up in my
Side Project Cache, or they might be dropped, and I'll make sure to be transparent about what I'm doing.
I'll do my best to quote this post after every update, so that planmakers can get an easy reminder about what we never quite got to last cycle.
