Alice Grove MCDT - June 2015
TinPenguin:
--- Quote from: ReindeerFlotilla on 03 Jun 2015, 21:44 ---There's something very "white privilege-ish" in the obliviousness Amos displays, lecturing a blue boy and his antigrav sister on how their chaperone/jailer is "unnatural."
--- End quote ---
Well, Amos is literally a Patriarch.
Neko_Ali:
I think that Amos 'gets it' that despite odd appearances or unusual powers, the siblings are essentially kids like any other. Alice on the other hand is something different entirely. She's not unlike a Time Lord in that sense. She may look human, but her life, her experiences, her very nature set her apart, and in some ways above all the others around her.
FunkyTuba:
Alice is letting Amos talk because she probably already knows what he knows and what he has been able to infer from what he knows.
I think the interesting part will come when/if she lets the kids talk and how much note-comparing she'll let them do with Amos.
jwhouk:
A bit sappy, I'd say.
Here's my theory: people relied for so long on things like Google and Wikipedia to tell the history of the world that, one day, when the servers all crashed, they were left with... nothing.
mikmaxs:
Hey, we got some character development, we got some lore background, I'm liking this! (Though with no context, I have no idea if Alice's dig about the Praeses being stingy is factual or heavily biased, so I'm really not sure if I should be cheering for her here or not.)
So, who thinks that Alice is being literal when she calls them trees? Is it a factual statement, or is it like calling a robot a 'Tin can' when you want to be insulting?
