[OPEN] 9/15 - Team Meeting

[joysticks]

[ With an info-gathering session on the eighth, Nanami decides to wait a few more days until they're about two weeks into the month to gather everyone again. She realizes that all the team members haven't sat down properly to bond with each other in a single group setting. She knows the importance of making sure that you get every single unit to have at least an A-rank with someone (S-rank if they're super compatible) and keeping up team morale so, on the thirteenth, a familiar shiny Mimikyu comes running up to everyone with a written note pinned on his costume: ]

team meeting plans to go to other islands and other discussions free food at Restaurant Le Nah tomorrow at 6:00pm - Nanami

[ Upon entering Le Nah the following day, a waiter will show the trainer to a large area in the back with multiple tables pushed together. There are already some appetizers ordered and spread across so feel free to help yourself. Nanami sits near the middle with her Mimikyu, feeding him by dropping little bits of food in front of him, and talking with her Mudkip, who just :V :V :V, as if she understands what he's saying. ]

( ooc: threadjacking is highly recommended in this log as it will be a group discussion! feel free to also create new top-levels that will only have a single type of discussion to keep things focused on the topic. )

Team Name

[joysticks]

[ Once everyone has gathered, Nanami will start off with their first topic. ]

We should come up with a team name. Luckily, we don't have any character limits so it can be as long as we want it to be.

[ That means that they can make a super long name and the game won't stop them. Please come up with either something ridiculous or dumb. ]

[thaumewturge]

Character limits...?

[A team name is fine and probably useful, in the end. It'll give them something to refer to the lot of them that isn't "everyone not from this world". But...what the hell are character limits?]

[joysticks]

Mmhm, you know, the number of characters that you can input.

[ She says this as if everyone clearly knows what she's talking about. ]

[thaumewturge]

I understand what all of those words mean individually, but strung together like that you might as well be speaking Ancient Mhachi.

[joysticks]

[ She doesn't know what Mhachi means, but she also knows that everyone is from a different world so perhaps this person doesn't have video games in their world, just like Sagi and his Last Fantasy 10-like world. ]

It's like... how many letters or numbers you can have. Sometimes, the limit is really small like the machines in the Game Corner, so you have to name yourself NAM or BOY because that's all you can write.

[afterword]

The last world-line my companion and I were sent to had the same plans for naming the island we were staying at. One of the choices was "Gay baby jail."

[ Yeah. ...Yeah. ] So I'm kinda curious as to what kind of names this group will come up with.

[joysticks]

Hmm, I guess we can make one of the choices "gay baby jail" if enough people like it.

[ Hey, whatever the team wants, the team gets. She doesn't think of herself as the protagonist or the leader of this game. She's just that helpful NPC. ]

[scension]

...I don't like that one.

[This is anti-babyface discrimination.]

[joysticks]

Is there another name that you like better?

[ Puts Sagi into the straight baby jail. ]

[infiltrationtools]

I want it on the record that I don't like it. I'm not a baby and I'm not going to jail.

[He's definitely gay tho.]

[joysticks]

[ After taking out baby and jail, the team name just becomes Gay then. ]

Okay, I'll put a vote against it. What kind of names do you like?

[afterword]

Ah, well, it was mostly a joke. I wouldn't consider it a serious suggestion.

[ In before someone actually votes for it though.]

[joysticks]

Joke names are still names, though. If it makes some people happy then we can at least have it as a suggestion.

[ Some people name their villages in Animal Navigating in strange things. She can't go against it if people are having fun. Everyone can play games in their own way. ]

[thaumewturge]

...what jail?

[afterword]

Gay baby jail.

[ And that's it. No helpful explanation here. ]

[thaumewturge]

They...wanted to name wherever you were after happy babies?

[partymagician]

Hmm, what about something cute? Something that'll get everyone's attention! Were there any names like that?

[ Well, gay baby jail would get people's attention, but he's not gonna push for that. ]

[afterword]

Well, it was a name for an island so the suggestions were.. Cosmic Apple, Apple Infinitum, Heavenly Skyapple, Cosmo Apple Jade Paradise, Apple Bounty Island.. Can you guess what our native fruit was?

[ He laughs because yeah... lot of apple-related names. ] Majority votes went to Isla Sonrisa though.

[regression]

Bringing up the past is unnecessary.

[ That name is terrible. ]

[afterword]

Sometimes the past can help out with the present.

[ Stop mean. ]

[rateup]

What were the other choices?

[ he'lll help brainstorm! he's totally good with names!! ]

[afterword]

A lot of it revolved around apples since it was that island's native fruit. But let's see.. "Isla Sonrisa" was the one that was decided on. Otherwise, a popular pick was "Cosmic Apple."

..Surprisingly, a few voted for "The Island" too. [ The group of arrivals there were indeed Something. ] I can't imagine any of those sound like a good name for a team.

[robincould]

Is this really necessary?

[ What IS it with people and team names and codenames, he's had enough!!! >:( ]

[joysticks]

[ Stop being a partypooper ://// ]

It'd be good for us to bond together over a team name, don't you think?

[robincould]

Absolutely not, especially with suggestions like "gay baby jail."

[ you guys :/// ]
