[QUOTE="Cerebral Paladin, post: 2097110, member: 3448"] It's worth noting that most of the previous two updates are verbatim from the e-mails that we exchanged between sessions, which explains the differences in tone and diction, especially in the analysis of how word-speaking works. I had tremendous fun with Marcus's misunderstanding of what was going on with Cornelia. One of the things I enjoy about Marcus is his alien mindset-- he thinks like a Roman, which is very different from how either I or most of my other characters think. So whenever his thoughts on a subject aren't well-defined by his particular character traits, I try to get as close as possible to Roman conventional wisdom (which I consult with Orichalcum, mostly outside games, to get-- 95% of what I know about Rome I learned from Orichalcum.) Because Roman texts on gender relations and physiology assume that young women are uncontrollably (and dangerously) sexual, Marcus assumes the same. [/QUOTE]
