Alice Grove MCDT - May 2015
BenRG:
Something that I suspected has now been proven true: Ardent actually is that naïve about human threats! He really doesn't seem to realise just how tense and dangerous that this situation could be, especially with some of the townsfolk so upset that they are willing to defy Alice. Does he lack a survival instinct or is he just plain dumb? Personally, I think that it is an indication of just how safe 'Up' is under the Praeses' direction.
I'm trying to work out what Alice is going to do to Jeb. Either he's going to come back babbling that he knows what it is like to be a frog or he's going to have a whole new outlook on life based on Alice's merciless deconstruction of his personality.
Meanwhile, what happens when one of the townsfolk succumbs to curiosity and approaches Gavia?

I suspect he's enjoying getting a rise out of the natives. "Oh! A hold up! Wait, let me get my camera, can you hold this bag for me?"

Yeah. Either is possible.

I would love them to have a conversation, sans fireworks!

When there are signs of unrest, Alice picks the perceived leader for a one-to-one talk. I like this strategy :-)
Jebediah obviously needs to learn, he has not the same respect for Alice as Beefy Marten. I am sure Alice can be quite persuasive, without using more force than necessary. That grip on his arm is probably strong enough to make him realize Alice is not to be messed with.
Alice is both respected and feared by the townspeople. This probably means Alice has not any real friends. She lives by herself, outside the town. She must be lonely at times, as the centuries and millenia pass away. She may have lovers sometimes, but no long term relationship (when you are immortal, every relationship is short term). Did she ever have children? Did they grow old and die?
