[9:18 PM] froyo: to explain?
[9:18 PM] froyo: Or are they just there?
[9:18 PM] firbunny: they're uncommon but unknown
[9:18 PM] firbunny: at least that's what I'm leaning towards
[9:18 PM] dawnwings: It reminds me of an anime I cna't remember the name of
[9:18 PM] firbunny: it'll be kinda like
[9:18 PM] firbunny: oh hey
[9:18 PM] firbunny: they're there
[9:18 PM] firbunny: it's odd
[9:18 PM] firbunny: but they don't wanna kill us
[9:18 PM] firbunny: so it's all cool
[9:19 PM] froyo: Okay, so right off the bat you have them dealing with being singled out
[9:19 PM] froyo: Based on their appearance
[9:19 PM] firbunny: yea just thoguht about that
[9:19 PM] froyo: So that'll be something you can work with
[9:19 PM] dawnwings: Um, how would they be unknown? Surely you're born like that, right/
[9:19 PM] froyo: Some people will treat them like celebrities
[9:19 PM] froyo: Some might hate them
[9:19 PM] firbunny: oops
[9:19 PM] firbunny: I mean but NOT unknown
[9:19 PM] firbunny: like everyone knows about them
[9:19 PM] dawnwings: Ah
[9:19 PM] froyo: Oh oh okay
[9:19 PM] froyo: They just aren't seen much?
[9:19 PM] firbunny: they're a part of socieity
[9:20 PM] firbunny: yea
[9:20 PM] firbunny: it'll proabbly be like how other races are treated in the present day
[9:20 PM] dawnwings: So they're a minority group
[9:20 PM] froyo: Okay, so it'll be less of a thing in that case since they're known about
[9:20 PM] firbunny: most are cool with them
[9:20 PM] firbunny: but some are probably still you know
[9:20 PM] froyo: But yeah people will still be a bit weird around them because they're a minority
[9:21 PM] froyo: Okay given that they aren't in particularly like, supernatural or anything like that just
[9:21 PM] froyo: by their existence
[9:21 PM] firbunny: probably not
[9:21 PM] froyo: You could have the item the bunnygirl seeks be more of an urban legend
[9:21 PM] firbunny: it is going to be
[9:21 PM] dawnwings: Yup
[9:21 PM] firbunny: probably
[9:21 PM] dawnwings: which would make sense
[9:21 PM] firbunny: yes :3
[9:22 PM] froyo: Maybe it starts off as something her friends talk about like at a sleepover
[9:22 PM] froyo: or at camp or something
[9:22 PM] froyo: That kind of story
[9:22 PM] firbunny: I just had a brilliant idea
[9:22 PM] froyo: And the bunnygirl can set out looking for it
[9:22 PM] dawnwings: Yeah?
[9:22 PM] firbunny: ok
[9:23 PM] dawnwings: I like the idea that everyone knows about it, but dismisses it, because there is something
[9:23 PM] firbunny: basically I think I'm going to have the bunny girl be like a future historyian
[9:23 PM] dawnwings: about being part of the minority that makes it work
[9:23 PM] firbunny: so she wants to know more about her own backyard
[9:23 PM] firbunny: and goes to the library to find out more
[9:23 PM] firbunny: among her piles of books
[9:23 PM] firbunny: there is a book about this urban legend
[9:23 PM] firbunny: and it has all these clues and hint sof how to get it
[9:24 PM] firbunny: and she goes out to pursue them
[9:24 PM] firbunny: the fact that she's getting to all of them and such makes it seem like it's real
[9:24 PM] dawnwings: What time period are you setting it in fir/
[9:24 PM] firbunny: when in fact it's a rich author who was bored and decided to set up a game off of this
[9:24 PM] firbunny: urban legend
[9:24 PM] firbunny: current
[9:24 PM] dawnwings: Why not look it up on the internet?
[9:25 PM] firbunny: actually
[9:25 PM] froyo: And fircoal, that's definitely a start
[9:25 PM] firbunny: there's a godo reason for that from my experience
[9:25 PM] firbunny: In the town I live in
[9:25 PM] firbunny: when I went to the town library
[9:25 PM] firbunny: there are some books with history about it
[9:25 PM] firbunny: that are not online
[9:25 PM] firbunny: nor have I found the info online
[9:26 PM] firbunny: they're old books
[9:26 PM] firbunny: from like 1984
[9:26 PM] firbunny: and stuff
[9:26 PM] firbunny: so
[9:26 PM] firbunny: for her search
[9:26 PM] firbunny: some stuff witll be online
[9:26 PM] froyo: Hey, I was alive in 1984!
[9:26 PM] dawnwings: There is a lot on the academic ones though
[9:26 PM] firbunny: but not everything
[9:26 PM] dawnwings: and that's only available through certain routes
[9:26 PM] froyo: But yeah local history is going to be best found in the local libraries and schools
[9:26 PM] dawnwings: like being a uni student
[9:26 PM] firbunny: she's a high schooler. No funds
[9:26 PM] firbunny: exactly
[9:26 PM] firbunny: and what she wants
[9:26 PM] firbunny: is local history
[9:26 PM] dawnwings: Okay, that can work
[9:26 PM] froyo: History professor at the college I go to was researching this town that apparently
[9:27 PM] froyo: there are zero records of ever existing
[9:27 PM] froyo: but it was there and people lived there
[9:27 PM] dawnwings: What about the local historical association?
[9:27 PM] firbunny: lol
[9:27 PM] firbunny: how fun
[9:27 PM] dawnwings: That's awesome fro!
[9:27 PM] firbunny: ooh sounds like another good idea
[9:27 PM] firbunny: but maybe she doesn't know about it
[9:27 PM] firbunny: or maybe
[9:27 PM] froyo: But yeah she can check out all of these things during the book
[9:27 PM] froyo: To try and find info on it
[9:27 PM] firbunny: the author is part of it
[9:27 PM] firbunny: and leads her down the path
[9:27 PM] froyo: With her friends so you have a way to keep the scene moving via dialogue and stuff
[9:27 PM] firbunny: well the thing is
[9:28 PM] firbunny: what's going to happen
[9:28 PM] firbunny: is she's going to leak info somehow
[9:28 PM] firbunny: and the other girls
[9:28 PM] firbunny: (who are not her firneds)
[9:28 PM] firbunny: are going to get interested
[9:28 PM] firbunny: and all try for it for their own reasons
[9:28 PM] firbunny: she only starts off with one friend who is a normal male
[9:28 PM] firbunny: who is very effermine
[9:28 PM] firbunny: and will be paired up with every minor male character that shows up
[9:28 PM] dawnwings: Sounds a lot like an anime lol
[9:29 PM] firbunny: EXACTLY
[9:29 PM] firbunny: It's actually based off of hideyoshi from baka and test
[9:29 PM] firbunny: I love that gag
[9:29 PM] firbunny: so I'm doing my own
[9:29 PM] firbunny: except rather than everyone thinking he's a girl
[9:29 PM] firbunny: everyone thinks he's into guys
[9:29 PM] dawnwings: What part is the author going to play in the story do you think?
[9:29 PM] firbunny: and pairs him up
[9:29 PM] firbunny: to troll everyone
[9:30 PM] dawnwings: Okay, so what is the story about if it'[s not about the finding of this thing?
[9:31 PM] fircoal left the room.
[9:31 PM] froyo: Zany adventures? I guess it would need some kind of resolution though.
[9:31 PM] firbunny: it's about finding this thing
[9:31 PM] froyo: They could get back at the author for being a jerk
[9:32 PM] dawnwings: If it's about finding the thing, finding out the author is a jerk might be a bit unfulfill
[9:32 PM] dawnwings: ing
[9:32 PM] dawnwings: I like the zany adventure idea
[9:33 PM] firbunny: how does zany adventure work?
[9:33 PM] dawnwings: What if there really is something, and the author thought he made it up
[9:33 PM] firbunny: maybe
[9:33 PM] dawnwings: The story is actually about the friendships
[9:33 PM] firbunny: oh
[9:33 PM] firbunny: it might be zany adventure then
[9:33 PM] dawnwings: and the zany adventure is sort of secondary to the relationships of the characters
[9:33 PM] dawnwings: The resolution is more to do with the characters than the plot
[9:33 PM] firbunny: that problaby sounds more like it
[9:34 PM] firbunny: but I may want more of a plot mover
[9:34 PM] dawnwings: Like in Mei-chan, the resolution isn't her becoming a lady and inheriting the family fortu
[9:34 PM] firbunny: maybe someone ups the anti
[9:34 PM] dawnwings: ne and burying her parents together, it's about her and Rihito realising they're in forbid
[9:34 PM] dawnwings: den love and going with it.
[9:34 PM] dawnwings: That's fine, that happens all the time with zany adventures
[9:34 PM] firbunny: yea
[9:34 PM] firbunny: x3
[9:34 PM] dawnwings: but that's what makes them zany is the weird stuff
[9:35 PM] dawnwings: So, your story focus is on the characters
[9:35 PM] dawnwings: that is a much clearer part to start on (
[9:35 PM] firbunny: probably
[9:35 PM] dawnwings: So, why does she want to be a historian?
[9:35 PM] firbunny: she's interested in the past and hwat came before it
[9:35 PM] dawnwings: Any particular reason?
[9:35 PM] firbunny: maybe she had a really cool grandmother who told her lots of old stories that got her excit
[9:35 PM] firbunny: ed and intesrted
[9:35 PM] dawnwings: I like history because it tells me about people
[9:36 PM] dawnwings: Love it
[9:36 PM] dawnwings: So, her interest is a legacy from her grandmother
[9:36 PM] firbunny: yea
[9:36 PM] dawnwings: do her parents share the interest?
[9:36 PM] firbunny: no
[9:37 PM] dawnwings: how much do they not share it
[9:37 PM] firbunny: not sure
[9:37 PM] firbunny: enough so they have no curiousity of what she's doing
[9:37 PM] dawnwings: are they just not interested, or are they against it
[9:37 PM] firbunny: not interested
[9:37 PM] firbunny: not against
[9:38 PM] dawnwings: Okay, do they think she should be doing something else with her time
[9:38 PM] dawnwings: or are they okay with it as long as she's done her hw
[9:38 PM] firbunny: they're ok with it as long as she's done with her hw
[9:38 PM] dawnwings: cool
[9:38 PM] dawnwings: what about her friends/
[9:38 PM] firbunny: she has only one friend
[9:38 PM] firbunny: the effiminete guy
[9:39 PM] firbunny: who isn't very interested but admires her passion
[9:39 PM] dawnwings: what kind of friend is he?
[9:39 PM] firbunny: best friend
[9:39 PM] firbunny: very loyal and willing to give it his all
[9:39 PM] firbunny: like he'll stand by her
[9:39 PM] firbunny: and just do anything
[9:39 PM] dawnwings: not interested in her sexually?
[9:39 PM] firbunny: he might be
[9:39 PM] firbunny: but that's a secret ;3
[9:40 PM] firbunny: I forgot about though
[9:40 PM] firbunny: cause I forgot even though he's gonna have a million yaoi pairings he's not gay x3
[9:40 PM] dawnwings: I can't help properly if I don't know
[9:40 PM] firbunny: yes he is x3
[9:40 PM] dawnwings: Okay
[9:40 PM] dawnwings: so is he doing this hoping she'll notice him?
[9:40 PM] firbunny: no
[9:41 PM] firbunny: he's doing this because he feels it's what a good friend would do
[9:41 PM] firbunny: he's more the quiet type about his feelings
[9:41 PM] dawnwings: So, he likes her as more than a friend, but isn't going to do anything about it?
[9:41 PM] firbunny: I think his plan is more
[9:41 PM] firbunny: be a good friend, and if she ever feels what you do, then start something up
[9:42 PM] firbunny: but don't push her into it
[9:42 PM] firbunny: let her decide
[9:42 PM] firbunny: he's the type of guy
[9:42 PM] firbunny: who won't want to lose her but will let her be with other guys
[9:42 PM] dawnwings: Are you going to have another guy who is more open about what he wants?
[9:42 PM] firbunny: and give his support
[9:42 PM] firbunny: maybe
[9:42 PM] firbunny: but I don't wanna give her a harem
[9:42 PM] dawnwings: it would up the stakes and have conflict
[9:42 PM] firbunny: that'll be for some more popular girl
[9:43 PM] dawnwings: Dude, two guys liking someone is not a harem, it's a love triangle, very common in manga
[9:43 PM] firbunny: true
[9:43 PM] firbunny: I may
[9:43 PM] firbunny: I'll have to think about it
[9:43 PM] firbunny: I could give her incredibly despirte guy
[9:44 PM] dawnwings: no, you need to make him actually appealing or he's not a threat
[9:44 PM] firbunny: drat
[9:44 PM] firbunny: oh better
[9:44 PM] firbunny: I'll have incredibly desprite guy for the best friend
[9:44 PM] firbunny: and she'll be like
[9:44 PM] firbunny: he's nice you should really go out with him
[9:44 PM] dawnwings: if he's interested in history too, that would even better
[9:44 PM] dawnwings: does she know he's straight?
[9:44 PM] firbunny: Friend: ARe you kidding me? > >
[9:44 PM] firbunny: no
[9:45 PM] firbunny: he'll ay it
[9:45 PM] firbunny: but she won't bleieve it
[9:45 PM] dawnwings: interesting
[9:45 PM] dawnwings: That could really throw the plot into interesting directions
[9:45 PM] firbunny: yea x3
[9:46 PM] firbunny: I got any idea
[9:46 PM] firbunny: the second guy could be a set up from another one of the girls
[9:46 PM] dawnwings: and then actually like the girl?
[9:46 PM] dawnwings: because that plotline is awesome
[9:46 PM] firbunny: don't know about that
[9:46 PM] dawnwings: Why not?
[9:46 PM] firbunny: or maybe
[9:46 PM] dawnwings: Up the stakes!
[9:46 PM] firbunny: he could actually like the girl
[9:47 PM] firbunny: but then realize
[9:47 PM] firbunny: that he's more attracted to the friend
[9:47 PM] firbunny: yes the friend is going to get a harem
[9:47 PM] firbunny: he'll get female attraction too
[9:47 PM] firbunny: don't worry
[9:47 PM] firbunny: but he's too loyal
[9:48 PM] dawnwings: I'm not fussed about the friend at this point, he's not the main character
[9:48 PM] dawnwings: I tend to plot with the mc first
[9:48 PM] dawnwings: and then see what the secondaries do

Nano's coming again, eh? I never did get to read The Cat's Powers 2. Your plot sounds interesting. It saddens me to read that there's no real wish-granting treasure, only the annoyance of a rich author. I'm surprised you're muttering about Baka and Test now. The thing's a little old, but not as old as Ruby/Sapphire, I think.
