oh hey it's a canon/power update

[soulbonder]

As of ...now, Astral has been sent home for one hell of a canon update and power adjustment. He'll be back either Saturday or Sunday, it depends how well I am by then.

He's going all the way into the events of the second season, during episode 38. On a very particularly asshole moment because I'm xepi and I choose the worst canon pulls. What this boils down to for those who are not familiar with the series is that Astral will arrive back into the City with that asshole, NO.96 Black Mist, stuck in his head. You may remember him from the alignment switch event back in November! Y'know, the Ferngully villain.

As for his power update! Well, he's regaining all his canon powers, including telepathy and empathy. And echolocation, because... he's apparently a space dolphin. Yeah, I don't know either!!! Also, immunity to time stop. No one actually cares about that one though.

I'll be making a permissions post for first two shortly! So keep an eye on this spot, especially if you've had prior face-to-face CR with Astral.

uh yeah that's it
fuck i really need sleep

I like how you say "getting his powers back" when it's really a case of "SHIT THEY DIDN'T TELL US HE COULD DO UNTIL A THROWAWAY EPISODE IN SEASON TWO, WHY."

[soulbonder]

shhhshhh

[soulbonder]

though to be fair we probably should've known
considering how many fucking times he reads yuma's thoughts in season one

[soulbondee]

things we never pay attention to:
whether or not Yuma is talking aloud or not
since he sounds ridiculous either way

[soulbonder]

hell he tells his opponents what his set cards are all the damn time
how are we supposed to know that was some freaky mind-reading bullshit on astral's part

[soulbondee]

and I don't think any of us predicted "SOLVE THIS MYSTERY WITH ECHOLOCATION" or "SHOVE HAND INTO CREEPY FUCKER'S HEAD, SEE MEMORIES"

[soulbonder]

eee, eee, i'm a goddamn dolphin, motherfuckers

[soulbondee]

We should have known you were only here for our fashionable jeans

[soulbonder]

Don't be evil :c The Doctor will be SO DISAPPOINTED IN HIM.

[soulbonder]

he wants to be a hero, too

BUT 96 won't be... active for a while, if only because when they port in he'll remember Tom Riddle offing him with a stick, so
