| Just looking at it from a completely disinterested standpoint, can you see the similarities between her and Nov?
|
| Daisie
| They're both Russian and snarky?
|
| Daisie
| And...they both do magic.
|
| Daisie
| Let me guess: you don't want me to play her because you think she's too much like Nov?
|
| Novalis
| They a) are born of Russian parents. b) they grew up in England. c) they are magic users/medical experts. d) they smoke. e) they drink. f) they list themselves as 'cynics'.
|
| Novalis
| I don't mind at all if you play a magic-user. It's just that "Klarmiya" is fairly derivative of Nov. I'm rather gratified she doesn't have prehensile hair, though.
|
| Daisie
| Mmm. And of course she couldn't be someone who's been in my head for YEARS or anything.
|
| Daisie
| And drinking and smoking are really unusual things to do.
|
| Novalis
| I had a feeling you'd react like that.
|
| Daisie
| I'm sorry, was I not supposed to point out possibilities other than the one you seem to want to believe?
|
| Daisie
| You have /no idea/ how or where Miya came from.
|
| Novalis
| Not at all. Feel free to believe as you choose.
|
| Daisie
| I'm sorry if she threatens you somehow.
|
| Daisie
| I certainly didn't mean for her to.
|
| Novalis
| It's not that I'm threatened so much as that I'm a bit confused. Did you not notice the similarities? When I first saw her user info, I thought a) you were making fun of Nov, which is fine and expected, or b) you had something fairly complicated in mind.
|
| Daisie
| I'm not making fun of Nov. I think Nov is a fine and wonderful character that I quite enjoy. That said, Miya's from a world that's been kicking about in my brain for the better part of a decade.
|
| Daisie
| I will admit, Nov did inspire in me a fascination with Russian names, and I did change her name to make it Russian because I like them.
|
| Daisie
| I was hoping that by this point the Nexus was a big enough sandbox for two snarky Russian women. I'm sorry if it isn't.
