ADMIRAL REQUESTS
New Admiral Request Page Found Here

Post your requests to the Admiral below (and also a note if you would specifically like that request to be rejected), and we will get to them in a timely manner. All Admiral requests (with the exception of Inmate resurrections) must go through this post, and their approval cannot be handwaved. Additionally, requests will only be granted to Wardens.

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all threads on this post are considered to be Private.

Though the Barge does not speak in any traditional way and is not reachable by communicator, it is sentient, and characters occasionally reach out to it via tapping on walls in Morse Code, spelling out messages in alphabet-letter fridge magnets, and other creative methods; if your character decides to try this, those messages may be dropped here as well!

Ah - not one quite like your brother's, no. Rather a lot of custom work went into that.

I could give you a body of some kind, but...I am not sure how to put this delicately...

Out-of-the-box bodies generally come with. Functions.

[He makes a soft noise that isn't QUITE a whine but it's definitely whine-LIKE.]

...Functions are... okay. I liked the cookies you made John. So I guess if having those means having the other parts, it's not... the worst thing.

But-- I don't... I don't want to be stuck. I understand I can't have one like him. He earned his. And Arthur did. But could I have one that's not just... one thing?

[bargemods]

That's more complicated.

[Although. Mmm. If the base was simplistic enough - a little workable bit of Nothing In Particular, like an unfinished basement - ]

If you don't want to be stuck, perhaps...something empty your crown could ride, that would be your own. Which you could doff and don as you like. Would that suffice?

[howtheyshine]

[It's clear from his tone he's fascinated.]

Yes. Yes, that-- I like that idea.

[bargemods]

It won't be fancy. Or...big.

But if that's alright, I'll see what I can come up with.

[howtheyshine]

Really? [YEAH HE'S EXCITED.] Do I... Do I need to have a warden ask?

[Sheepish:] I already asked my brother to ask you while we were takling... I send him a text message.

You're a very prompt family, aren't you?

[The Admiral sounds fond. Honestly, it's a rare virtue among immortals.]

Mister Doe has already reached out. It will take me a few days to make sure it all works properly. Do speak to Mister Folgate as well in that time.

[howtheyshine]

[A very prompt family!!! It's pleasing to hear on two levels: a compliment and being categorized with John in a positive way.

He is now both excited and clearly preening a little, even if he has to talk to Norton........]

I will.

[HE'S PROMPT!]

Best of luck, солнышко.

[A day or two later, a plush toy appears in Edwin's conversation pit. It is extremely orbular, a little less than a foot across, and completely black except for big yellow eyes and a tiny yellow mouth. A sticky note on the top of the plushy says 'Crown Goes Here'.

When this directive is obeyed, it will transform from cloth into something a little more smooth and amorphous, like a living blob of ferrofluid. Edwin will be able to move around in it and experience the standard human range of sensations, including tasting things, although he can only 'eat' in about the same manner as a muppet - he can lick or mash things but not swallow. He can also speak out loud. The squish body will always be approximately the size and strength of a small cat but Edwin will be able to consciously modify both the limb configuration and the approximate surface texture. The crown will not fall off of it, and anyone who touches it while it's riding the body won't be affected by the crown unless Edwin deliberately relinquishes the plushy, or they pull him actively away from it.]
