@Canageek some of them have played d&d i think. afaik there's not much beyond that. i'm definitely having to give a walkthrough of dicepools here but they understand the basic concepts i think??

@Canageek oof. i'm uh....apparently being volunteered to explain shadowrun rules to an ever-growing group of people who haven't heard of it before

@Canageek what's up?

@Canageek also, because i'm particular about weird things: hi

@Canageek welcome to nonsensical hellbrain land, omae

current running hypothesis: plan 9 was the only known case of a host successfully synergising with the artificial mind bc as a preexisting system they already had some experience in how to respond to "hey there's a new person in the headspace"

there's absolutely no canon information that will ever disprove this bc they never even finished that storyline so. but we'd like to try and find proof anyhow

@Anarchist_Mallrat this is also true. which....makes everything much more complicated, since i'm trying to parse what's pre-cfd, what's post-cfd, and what's in between. and this is literally all just to figure out the characterisation of a single character in the lore. bc plan 9 is at the centre of all of the hellraising that went on about cfd during that, on account of plan 10 existing. it's a mess

@Breakfast this is a callout post

all of this is complicated by the fact that personal reading suggests plan 9 was plural prior to the artificial science whatsit, but without timestamps on the lore it's hard to be sure. it would certainly make a lot more sense if this were the case

in any case, cgl is not responsible for any actual rep here. but y'know. ours now

@hyperlink@snouts.online bautumn

@chillallmen@mastodon.social turn off the computer

plan 9 is an interesting character. they're already transhuman and probably genderfluid, but they have like....an artificial headmate? like, canonically, they basically got a second preexisting mind implanted into their head. it's....definitely some kind of plurality, but not uh. not exactly in a way that works outside this setting

that said, plan 9/plan 10 is also the only example of a plural character we're aware of, so it's kinda unsurprising they got stuff wrong about this

@dopple@cryptid.industries iirc duolingo offers klingon lessons

@Canageek@cybre.space that's definitely part of it, yeah
