One random thing that came to me: you might need to reinstate the whole “claimsies” scene, or else Fern taking back SM-33 will make even less sense than it already does. Wild how that scene has more relevance to the plot than any of the parent stuff lmao.
Yes. Claimsies has been added back in. I’ve been going back through the first two and a half episodes and episode 7 to tighten things up as much as possible. I’ll get onto episode 8 on Wednesday and hopefully have the first and last acts finished by the end of the week. Then I’ll work on the mess that is the middle episodes!
One radical option I’ve been considering is having the crew travel straight from the pirate port to skull mountain.
Then the big gun on the roof of the school wouldn’t be explained, as I feel this is going to be a reveal in E8.
The big gun is a worry. I’m sure it’ll appear but I’m hoping it’s like the At-Attin auto landing sequence. That was just a line from Neel that was easily cut.
