@ -138,3 +138,10 @@ The secession of the system and launch of the extra-solar system.
* [X] The ships (identical) are similar to from *Accelerando* combined with a scissors mechanism a la Ilium and a rail gun. There's a small version of the System (plenty of room for folks to fork, etc), an RTG for power, some external physical manipulators and materials (like 1-2 tons) for repair along the way if needed, a few attitude jets, and a light sail once it's launched on each. Thin scaffold type thing about 10k kilometers long spun around the middle. In the scaffold is a rail gun to assist in propulsion as the ships are flung out into space by angular momentum, each in opposite directions.
* [ ] The launch process is the first time the sys-side and phys-side have worked together in any notable capacity since secession.
* [ ] Release should take the form of an ARG similar to the original Qoheleth.
* [ ] The creators of the system tried to come up with better communication than just text, and could when just one was in the system via dream-reading scans, but when multiple dreamers interacted, it quickly lost focus. Can communicate at any time via text through perisystem or view one individual's dream if they fork into a reserved spot in the perisystem(though that instance can't merge back, just as waiting room instances can't merge), so it's only really good for presentations
* [ ] Difference between conservatives and liberals is that the conservatives play with need on a very grand scale, liberals on a very small/individual scale. Ioan struggles with May after learning a lot of this about the Clade, because even if she's earnestly in love with em, it's like learning your inlaws are illuminati. Ey comes acround because a) she explains need for control as trauma response, and b) tells myth in progress, about how the gods created the world in an attempt to shape it to their will, but instead became impersonal forces in the face of absolute independence
* [ ] Quote:
She stood from her chair and walked up to where ey remained stubbornly seated. "If you do not wish to be unhappy with the answers to difficult questions, Ioan," she said, tousling eir hair. "Then you do not need to ask them."
She smiled down to em, and in that smaile was kindness, and in that kindness was a hatred ey could not fathom, and then she quit.
