OOC: this is a yes to the move question

Jason seems taken aback by his vehemence for a moment, as if he were the only one with permission to get intense. Then he gets a huge grin on his face which Leo probably hasn’t seen before, either. “Ha! Never retreat ! Never surrender!” He raises a right hand for a high-five.

_I can’t hold a grudge forever, I guess.

Leo returns the high-five with only the slightest hesitation.

Yes I can. But, I can use that fire. Trying to be better than Jason Quill is still better than I was before. And it’ll save his life. A lot of lives. Totally worth it.

You’re damn right it is. :slight_smile:

It was a desperation move, Jason thinks to himself. Especially after he got all pissy the last time. But I was _desperate, and I needed help from someone … and maybe, just maybe, it’s paid off. For me … for him …and for the team.

_And … scene?

OOC: So I think that means Link now gets Influence over me (I don’t think he had it before), and I’ll mark a Potential from it (next time I’m in there). Any game effects for Leo?

Link actually has Influence over every team member, so I get to shift your labels instead. Superior down (I see a lot of “I’m not the smart one here” narration from Jason), Mundane up (“sorry, that was my father talking” and similar attempts to be personable).

As far as I can tell there’s no benefit to Leo. He hasn’t shared a weakness so much as listened to one, and this doesn’t feel like a triumphant celebration. So it’s all good. :slight_smile:

OOC: Cool. Let Jason know if you need any help from him. :slight_smile:

No immediate game benefit to Leo, but hopefully some entre into furthering his character arc.

“Attempts to be personable.” Kid was raised in a weird science adventure hot-house, with an adoptive brother from a completely different culture, and facing weird and unnatural violent death on a regular basis. “It’s amazing I’m still sane.”

Yep, we are good. What Leo needs will come soon :slight_smile:

And, of course, the video …

Caveats, first. Bill suggested to me that the abridged version, esp. with the computer-generated voices, removes a lot of the drama and interesting twists from the above, and I fully agree with him: the written dialog is much more complete, and insightful to the characters, than this animation is or could be. Like so many adaptations (and by better adapters than I with better tools than Plotagon), the book is better than the movie.

But since I had already generated it (and I’ve subsequently adjusted the voice settings so that they are a bit clearer to distinguish, Bill), I’ll go ahead and post it. I think it has an element of fun, and can add to (not substitute for) what is written above.
