Also the original a.f.k. subs were "Data Integration Thought Entity". I'd honestly prefer to find a single word for that. |

I kindly request that we don't use that. Or were you not the one who agreed with me that "Integrated Data Sentient Entity" sounded better? (...Though I can't remember what the consensus on "Celestial" vs. "Avatar" was.)
...On the other hand, "Canopy Domain" sounds just as bad as "Data Overmind", and yet it's the term I've seen more often for Kuyoh's group. ...Well, compound words are always useful. "Second-year", perhaps? |

And yes, "Avatar" sounds better simply because it perfectly describes them, which is why I'm not using "Celestial" even though Strato did. I'd argue that "Data Overmind" perfectly describes the aliens, as well. Hrr. Good enough. |

Also, that royal flush thing. Again, I am surprised that happened.

True... It does have the problem of not being able to be used all the time. Also, I get the feeling it is already being used.

There was something I was wondering about. As this is a visual novel, seperating lines into seperate 'screens' is important. But I absolutely hate breaking up the flow of a paragraph with unneccessary breaks, since I feel that formatting is part of the presentation of a novel and effects precisely how a reading is received.
By the way, I think you need to seperate out dialogue from monologue, just via the double-spacing if possible; I'm thinking of it kind of like the script to a play. We're probably going to need to work out a way to format this so that we can start to include graphical effects within our scripting... |

Yet another new part. This is the Haruhi scene you get if you choose to go out into town on Day Zero.
I will say this was fun to write. Spoiler for September the First, Day 0, Universe 1: Cafe- This Isn't a Date!:

Because it's a visual novel, I doubt that the scene will be *of* Kyon walking from the station and show Haruhi in the window - it's more likely that that's a transition sentence, so as to let the reader know early what precisely is going on. Background at that point seems likely to be 'random outside area'.
I love working on fluff pieces. |
