Infinite Stratos Character Creation and Fanfiction Discussion

[ZeroXSEED]

@ Eras
As Jak said, V5 started at early September, Ichika's birthday in V6 Epilogue is 27 September. You can say the timeline is much denser compared to before.

@ Demi
Too High-res, I'll seek for alternative first.

[Eratas123]

So how many months till the end of the school year is that?

[ZeroXSEED]

The end of school year is February, so I'd say plenty. I'm not sure when V7 took places, probably October.

[Eratas123]

Aww~ Utsuho's graduating soon Then again, we don't even know how IS students get to college.

[demino_hellsin]

I believe it's direct employment. It's not too uncommon in Japan and America to go straight to work after high school.

[Eratas123]

Well, she's Tatenashi's maid, so I doubt she can't find a reason to stay.

[ZeroXSEED]

The question is: where?

[Eratas123]

What do you mean "Where"? Did you forget the whole "Screw the rules, I make them!" mindset Tatenashi has?

[ZeroXSEED]

I'm not asking that, I'm asking Demi about possible workplaces.

[demino_hellsin]

IS parts manufacturing companies. Engineers have a given place already. However they will need test pilots where there should be limited slots. The military will always be on the look out for new talent and it's not impossible there are the extreme minority of 1 or 2 groups in each IS possessing country that are solely devoted to the mondo grosso event.

[Eratas123]

Woohps, sorry Anyway, I need some advice: Is incest as a whole morally unacceptable everywhere?

[ZeroXSEED]

@ Demi
Thank you very much

But do you think it's possible for them to go to college?

@ Eras
Some relative old culture actually support them, such as Balinese who support Twincest because they saw twins separated by gender as reincarnation of their god... or something. I forgot.

Modern culture and major religion explicitly forbid them though, to various degree. For example, USA doesn't allow First Cousin Marriage (correct me if I'm wrong), Japan did, and in the past, Cousin Marriage become a tradition in Middle East.

[Eratas123]

It just seems like whenever Ichika x Chifuyu pops up everyone goes "Woot! Incest FTW!"

[ZeroXSEED]

The taboo is the part of attraction, FORBIDDEN FRUIT W00T :3

I can vouch that [those games] are a result of fantasies by people who don't actually have a younger sister.

It's always a possibility to go to college. Being ISA graduates probably ensures them a recommendation and possible scholarship to top colleges. Possibly any college in the world because ISA is known as an international school.

[Eratas123]

So I'm guessing everyone's going to go to IS related careers. I doubt they'd go to special IS training schools and reading up on the hard work before going to and graduating from ISA only to become lawyers.

[ZeroXSEED]

Thank God, I just don't want the Twins gone to college without clear reason. Especially that Ichika is not eager about it.

[demino_hellsin]

Bear in mind... possible darkside of all this which will never see light. It's possible you will be "conscripted" due to your talent and "your country needs you"

[Eratas123]

Then again, I'm betting there's some kind of "Instantly become a trainee teacher if you're good enough" clause. Maya's way too young to have gone through college normally.

[ZeroXSEED]

Well, it IS possible Maya is way too young, and Chifuyu is explicitly never go to college either.

As for Conscription, well, that's far from impossible, this is harem story set in a cold war situation after all
