[plotting] trapped in idol hell

[erbier]

So around.... Day 33 or later, pretty much some time after the vigil and the group talks to KunKun, Ilde takes roboSam with her to go hang out with some subspace kids and meet up with some of their underground friends. Posing as this idol singer 'Saffron' and her manager, Ilde and Sam are asking a few question of a hacker named Y and her robo-buddy Kellix. You can read about it here for the direct transcript. Along the way, Y suggests that Ilde should throw a concert with KunKun as their celebrity guest to try to lure the terrorist bombers back out into the open. Ilde's perspective on this is that Y is trying to call her bluff about really being an idol, but she also knows how little she understands most of what happens on this planet, so she would check in with the others via mental link, and her actions going forward would depend on the advice she got. I think it would be fun to do the IC mental link post regardless of the result, but it also seems like it would be a good idea to check in about how people were feeling OOCly and to see what they'd like to get out of this interaction. ETA: enough strong voices are opposed to pursuing the concert, so I've just posted the actual IC content here

In the vein of being That Guy, Bruce will not be down for this idea. Though he isn't against using bait, he won't be able to condone something which he views as unacceptably precarious -- i.e. what if the bombers do show up but they also manage to get away with another bombing, and hurting/killing more people? What if they still get away, and they have an even bigger mess on their hands? Blah blah blah, too many variables.

What a stick in the mud.

piggybacking on this comment just to say that he agrees with bruce on this but if things ever come to the point where a medic will be needed giogio will rise to the occasion. 8Ia
