Makes sense. This is New York - a hot bed for magical activity - and the dragons don't appear to be actively around to regulate it anymore and prevent it from leaking out as much. The mob could totally still have some level of connections with the magical world if you look hard enough (though it probably still wouldn't be public knowledge for grunts).
Yeah, I'm picturing mobsters who are operating on the same level as, say, mid-series Dresdenverse mobsters in Chicago: they are aware from unpleasant experience that supernatural phenomena exist, even if they do not fully understand these phenomena and don't have much in the way of specialists in dealing with them. They're capable of hiring talent to handle specific one-off problems, however.

Shit I hope we're not about to cross the equivalent of Johnny Marcone, though hopefully any issues will be superseded by the impending invasion.
 
Might we get the option of researching Adaptive Anti-Cape AI next turn as a Learning action?

That could be pretty good with a crit.
 
I'm pretty sure we have already done this.

Huh, you're right. I swear I looked through the threadmarks to a reasonable extent.

In that case, the general Upgrade AI action looks like it'll be quite a bit more manageable. Perhaps we should try that and then try to make a Translator AI (or upgrade Princess CJ with that function) so that we can get a bonus on translating things like with contacting Drossel.
 
What mechanical benefits did Princess Coffee Java have for us again? I thought it was a Stewardship boost, but Doof's stewardship is the same it was at the start.
 
The last time someone wouldn't tell me where they were going they didn't come back."

Oh right, she's from Florida.

...OH SHIT, SHE'S FROM FLORIDA AND WE HAVEN'T ASKED HER WHAT'S GOING ON THERE. I'll bet she knows at least a little of what's going on in that place.

Eh, high 10s at best. He was no fool, but Low 20s is poking into genius range and the shit he was best at is covered better by other categories.

This will 100% be the most entertaining option.

Going with this since we can learn a lot about the goings on if this is successful, and if not then I bet some shenanigans will occur.

My idea of his stats:

Martial: REALLY Bad (single-digits - the REAL Mr. Rogers was a pacifist man through and through and not the "covert sniper/Sharpshooter SEAL operative" memes like to portray him as...the only thing a Bot of him would have going for him would be bot-derived resilience)

But then again, this is a quest of Doof and if we crit succeed we could have LOVEMUFFING incorporate the meme into the bot that just happens to be pacifist. So, 0 martial but +45 on defensive or protective rolls that do not involve hurting others.

which is to say, you can't gank him. But he will not be using martial unless pacifist forced to defend himself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alternately, a passive that lets him sub diplo for martial against foes capable of understanding speech. Because Mr Rodgers literally in reality pulled off a "sing a children's song to congress in a way that makes those trying to cut funding to PBS cry and then dissolve the inquiry into cutting PBS because he's so powerful"

first of all? LOVE how Lizzie was incorporated already.

Second? I think it's hilarious that the next scene can start with Tom saying "oh that's why it explains it". and Lizzie is just, you know, eating through the roof's locked door or something incredibly disconcerting for him. Because, hilarious.

Third? I think it's very funny to vote [] Kiss him you fool!, but at the same time I think Janna Tom and Marco Star is cuter and prevents all love triangle shenanigans from ever occurring.


I like to imagine that she is in regular contact with her family through video calls and group chats. And her family isn't 100% sure if she's pranking them or being serious but either way they'll support her because they're wholesome

If Janna becomes our heir she would be "Designated Heir to the Kingship of Doofania" and if we buy ownership of Drusselstein we can also be Emperor of the HRE and have her be Emperor of the HRE as well. That qualifies her to be royal matchmaking material, and aids our ability to become involved in "Help Hell against whatever army is assaulting them."
This is hilarious to me, because as "Gud Yellow Lady" (@AProcrastinator ) has shown us Janna is the "Normal wishing for abnormalcy" of the group and becoming Heir of DEI, Elected Empress of the HRE, Princess of (Mewnian) Hell (by betrothal) is really funny.

Because, knowing Janna, she would also be pranking on her check in's with home. So there'd be a nice scene of "we bet on what was real and what was pranks let us run down the list mister so called PrInCeOfHeLl "

Maybe I'm just letting how the series fell from grace colour my perceptions but no.

Also maybe my timeline is messed up but didn't Marco-Star start becoming a thing at some point after season 2? There wouldn't be any attraction yet.

They would definitely still be attracted to each other because they have that soulbond from the Blood Moon Ball (which happened before the divergence) when Marco stole Tom's dance with Star. It kinda makes them more attracted to each other than they would otherwise be, not that they aren't attracted to one another anyhow. The only way they were able to get rid of it is using this artifact Tom has access to that let them relive and then destroy the memory of the dance to cut out that part of their soul. Incidentally, Janna also split her soul in to pieces for the laughs in that episode. That soul-splitting happened in S4, so it hasn't happened yet.

Secondly, the series went the whole "I was attracted to you when I first met you" route near the end so there is still an attraction.

Now that I think about it, if we could get the trust of Tom and the Lucitor Kingdom (as in probably 75-100 opinion range), that artifact would be EXTREMELY useful to study. It can literally cut through anything. That's how it is able to work on souls as well.

episode transcript said:
Janna[grabs book] Yoink! [opens book] "The Severing Stone. This enchanted rock possesses an edge so sharp that it can sever anything, be it physical, emotional, or even magical. The Stone can be found at the deepest depths of the Underworld." Aw, man, this day gets better and better.

It'd be a long-shot to even let us study it, let alone the GM letting us do anything with the information from those studies, but it would be really useful if it could be used.
