Handwaved & Assumed CR Meme July 2021

Hello, Trainlings! Checking back through the comms, it looks like the last time we had a "Handwave/Assume CR" Meme was back in January, so here we are almost in July, bringing the information forward!

New Players and New Characters, this means you, too! We want you in on this meme as it's forward facing for what your characters will do during train-bound downtime!

Handwaved & Assumed CR Meme


Our characters are blessed, or cursed, with confined living spaces, and have all their own schedules and rhythms to dictate their daily lives. So how do they all interact with each other? What do characters with pets or companion animals do? What do those pets or animal companions themselves do?

This meme is a chance to see how characters may recognise each other or their pets/companions in passing, where they may be sharing spaces at similar times, or have met other passengers, allowing the kickstarting of CR without having to play out every first meeting or smaller interaction on train. Who has the time for that? (Not me, I cry emphatically, not me.)

Below is the form to copy and paste into a comment below; if you'd like to have line breaks or paragraphs, either use <br /> or <p></p>. Dreamwidth default formatting will not work in the below.

The sleeper cabins can be found here. For the top image in this code, images (animated or still) of around 500 pixels in width are recommended.

Danny and Siebren might have run into each other because of anti-gravity things. Danny spends a lot of time floating around the ceiling in different rooms (because its the closest thing he can get to flying on the train).

Also if he finds out about the astronaut thing he would immediately ask to hear about it. Astronaut is Danny's dream job. (He tries not to think too much about how theres no way he'd be able to pass the physical exams now.)

They may have literally run into each other in some of the cars with lower ceilings, given Siebren's height. |Db Siebren would definitely have been interested in Danny floating and asked about it, because he is forever interested in other people who can defy gravity.

As an astrophysicist and having been to both the ISS and the moon, Siebren would be happy to talk space with Danny. Extensively. Both the cosmic wonder of it all and the excessively scientific aspects, in equal measures. What does he want to know?

Danny's pretty open these days about having ended up half-ghost in an accident. He'd be happy to explain about how he can ignore gravity. Although honestly the answer is ghost energy is weird.

Everything!

Danny's the kind of kid who has NASA posters and models of the space shuttle in his room, and plays flight simulators all the time. He's super curious about all these worlds that have made it further into space than his. He'll take the adventure stories, but he'd be equally interested in the science. He might not understand all of it, but he'd be interested in trying.

At this point, Siebren is used to the answer being "weird stuff specific to my dimension" and will absolutely roll with ghost powers.

Siebren's life's work is the study/manipulation of gravity, so a good amount of the Science part of the discussion will be focused on that, but he will also talk Life In Space. He lived on a colony on the moon for a better part of a year, and while that wasn't necessarily exciting beyond the fact that it was on the moon, he'd still be happy to talk about it.
