Hi my name is Koschei Sa’xon Thascalos Yana Master and I have short black hair with black streaks and black tips and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I remind them of Omega (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I’m not related to the Doctor but I wish I was because he’s a major fucking hottie. I’m a time lord but my motives are chaotic and unpredictable. I went to a school called the Prydonian Academy on Gallifrey where I got better scores than Theta Sigma. I’m a megalomaniac (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly black. Today I was wearing a black velvet outfit with gold leaf thingys on the collar and puffy sleeves and matching black boots. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. The High Council stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.

WHO LEAKED MY DRAFTS

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

It is a crime to publish “fanfiction” about significant or protected figures. We apologize, Madam Imperatrix, for the scandal.

[liviacaralis]

The War Council and the High Council are threatening to torpedo the entire War Effort and antagonising the head of the timeship fleet over the existence of Mo3...

Has everyone lost their bloody minds?!

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

We must maintain order. Lolita’s defiance foreshadowed mutiny.

[liviacaralis]

If you don't stop this pointless charade I will shut down that stupid website for all eternity.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

Many of us would approve of that outcome, but as it happens, we’ve already come to an arrangement. I’m sure your excellency would approve.

[liviacaralis]

What is this agreement?

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

That “distribution or publication of a fictional depiction of a current Council member, or another individual granted protection against defamatory publication, is hereby forbidden unless particular permission is granted by all individuals impacted, or by a court’s decision.”

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

OOC hi I have to ask. I’m assuming this whole rp group is several people and I’m so curious is it like open to join and if so is there coordination behind it or is it just fully open? Regardless I think it’s amazing to watch and absolutely hilarious recently lol

Oh yeah! There’s a few of us, and it’s completely open to join. There’s not much coordination, someone usually just picks a fun idea and people run with it. So feel free to join with another character or OC, we’d love another person! And asdfghjk thanks it’s a lot of fun to write

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

*Followup Petition to Audit the Coordinator specifically for going rogue and using his powers irresponsibly*

Very well.

[ollistra]

The war council argues that this should be overruled.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

On what basis?

[ollistra]

The Coordinator’s deletion of MO3 is in the best interests of the population in general during war time.

[101ita-form]

Ollistra this is patently untrue

[ollistra]

Sliders are loosing faith in the War Council.

[101ita-form]

And banning this has made it a propaganda tool to be used against you.

Its already being distributed illicitly twice as frequently as it was previously read before this...

[ollistra]

I told them the Daleks blew up the servers. The soliders have become significantly better at killing Daleks since then.

On the homeworld it is irrelevant, but I do not want my soliders thinking the War Council takes advantage of its subordinates in bed.

[101ita-form]

Ok well... suspend it offworld, that'll eliminate that risk but prevent the local insurrection risk

[ollistra]

It’s still not a good look and I… the War Council strongly argues for its closing down. Once the war is over it can be re uploaded but until then the peace must be kept.

[101ita-form]

Narvin deleting it has caused a 300% spike in civil unrest, a class action lawsuit and the rate at which material portraying the government in an obscene light is being written has skyrocketed by almost a factor of four.

I'd rather think that's the opposite of keeping the peace.

[ollistra]

The war council suggest instead that we increase content restrictions as a compromise.

[101ita-form]

What kind of content restrictions?

[ollistra]

No depictions of real world individuals and all depictions of fictional characters inspired by real world individuals must come with a disclaimer informing the reader this is both fiction and not based of any real world individuals even if they are.

[101ita-form]

How about, depictions of real world individuals are allowed barring certain key exceptions... specifically yourself and key War Council individuals, but all depictions of real world individuals must come with a disclaimer that said depictions are entirely fictional and that the author does not believe anything they have written applies to the actual person.

[ollistra]

The war council and all military personnel as well as CIA operatives are not allowed to be depicted other real people are.

[101ita-form]

'CIA operatives' should exclude the publicly known CIA higherups, Narvin doesn't deserve a win here.

[coordinatorofthecia]

I beg your pardon?

[101ita-form]

Sorry, you're acting like a child.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*turns bright red*

Y-y-you can’t just say that without a proper argument!

[101ita-form]

I think you'll find that as about 40% of the House Military in and of myself... I can say whatever I damn well please.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*splutters*

But-!

[101ita-form]

Sit down, the grownups are talking.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*slowly sits, still flushed with outrage*

[101ita-form]

@thehighcouncilofgallifrey

Do you have any objections to this?

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

*whispering*

We object to the noted exceptions for the War council members. Those not directly involved in the War, or directly distributing orders should be afforded the same protections. To writ, there should be no unauthorized fictional depictions of any Council member.

[101ita-form]

... hmmm...

Current members only? Seems fair enough...

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

Current members, and anyone else deemed to require particular sensitivity, as determined on a case-by-case basis.

[101ita-form]

So long as that excludes Narvin.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

We will not set the precedent of removing legal protections from a certain individual because of one person’s spiteful grudge.

[101ita-form]

No, I just don't think he applies...

[coordinatorofthecia]

I’m a member of the Council!

[101ita-form]

And you do understand that Carmilla is writing about you to deal with the trauma of your death in her timeline... right?

And you're denying her that method of grieving... right...

[coordinatorofthecia]

*hesitates*

My objection is to its publication.

[101ita-form]

Being able to interact with other people about that gave her an outlet

You took that from her because you were rash... you made this whole thing a way bigger deal than it need be... Leela, Sytha, Lilith... they all resent you now, for dragging this out this long... for not just apologising and rescinding before it got this big

[coordinatorofthecia]

I would advise she find some way that doesn’t interfere with governmental processes. One person’s grief does not entitle them to expose another party to public scrutiny. As sympathetic as I may be, I find it difficult to believe that my public humiliation is necessary for her wellbeing. And, even if it was, there’s no reason to prioritize that over intergalactic security.

[101ita-form]

It wasn't public humiliation until you made it public... this is your own fault. Just accept that.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*smiles thinly*

I do believe you’re bluffing. The Council agrees with me, thanks to Thessalia, and even the War Council has its own objections. Only your… ‘Vampire Cabal’ is insisting on this.

Would Carmilla appreciate her grief being weaponized in the forum?

Maybe you should ‘just accept it.’ Unless, of course, your pride forbids it. Then we will see who the Council holds in greater esteem.

[101ita-form]

You're thinking of Lilith... not me.

I'm just trying to make you understand that you torpedoed all your personal relationships because you got red in the face over a piece of fiction.

I'm hosting the archive regardless of what anyone thinks because I'm too valuable of a War asset to be audited over an insignificant piece of fiction.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

This is treason.

[101ita-form]

You're all pathetic

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

Your value as an asset is directly tied to your loyalty.

You forget, Lolita, that this Council wields the greatest powers in existence. Your enmity would be… inconvenient. We would, admittedly, prefer your cooperation. But we will not tolerate temperamental and unpredictable allies. And if this is where we discover our… incompatibility… it is only to our advantage that it was not on the field of battle.

[101ita-form]

You're going to torpedo the entire timeship fleet and frontline over being depicted on Mo3

No wonder we're losing

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

You’re a fool if you believe this was ever about fanfiction

[101ita-form]

What is this about then?

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

The exercise of power. The CIA cannot bear this affront to their authority. The War Council cannot allow dissent, and the High Council cannot tolerate disrespect. And so, you challenge all three, naively believing that all is as it appears, and everything is said is spoken. If you challenge us here, over an insignificant thing, that you have no stake in beyond spite and stubbornness, then you might challenge us when it could cost us the War. This is a simulated battle, Lolita, and you’ve willingly taken the role of the Enemy.

[101ita-form]

*sigh*

Its not that serious, Narvin threw a tantrum... why are you, the High Council of the Time Lords of Gallifrey, willing to die on this hill...

You're all so pathetic... no compromise, no acquiescence, no just... talking like normal people. No everything's The War, everything's a battle...

Really I was only here to inform Narvin that he's destroyed all his friendships for no reason... and that you have no right to erase my mother's memories of anything. She is not your slave...

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

See my point. If it is so insignificant… why do you insist on bending Gallifrey to your will? Gallifrey will not bend. Not to you, or the Daleks. We’re willing to compromise. We’re willing to allow the Archive to remain, albeit with certain objectionable material inaccessible. No deletion, but no public access, either. But if we acquiesce to your demands, in this simulated battle, we have lost.

Tellingly, you expect us to do so. You compare our power, and believe yours is greater. That is a misapprehension we cannot allow. You challenge us here… and you have proven yourself unreliable.

Stand down, Lolita. That is an order. If you disobey… you will face the wrath of Gallifrey.

[101ita-form]

This is absurd... sure fine whatever...

See how your reputation goes to the general populace who are already uneasy about overreach when they learn this... not my problem...

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

*something relaxes, some weapon is lowered*

I’m glad we could come to an agreement.

Distribution or publication of a fictional depiction of a current Council member, or another individual granted protection against defamatory publication, is hereby forbidden unless particular permission is granted by all individuals impacted, or by a court’s decision.

Oh, and Lolita? It is far better that our citizens despise and distrust us, than perceive us as incompetent. Your deference is commended.

No depictions of real world individuals and all depictions of fictional characters inspired by real world individuals must come with a disclaimer informing the reader this is both fiction and not based of any real world individuals even if they are.

[101ita-form]

How about, depictions of real world individuals are allowed barring certain key exceptions... specifically yourself and key War Council individuals, but all depictions of real world individuals must come with a disclaimer that said depictions are entirely fictional and that the author does not believe anything they have written applies to the actual person.

[ollistra]

The war council and all military personnel as well as CIA operatives are not allowed to be depicted other real people are.

[101ita-form]

'CIA operatives' should exclude the publicly known CIA higherups, Narvin doesn't deserve a win here.

[coordinatorofthecia]

I beg your pardon?

[101ita-form]

Sorry, you're acting like a child.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*turns bright red*

Y-y-you can’t just say that without a proper argument!

[101ita-form]

I think you'll find that as about 40% of the House Military in and of myself... I can say whatever I damn well please.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*splutters*

But-!

[101ita-form]

Sit down, the grownups are talking.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*slowly sits, still flushed with outrage*

@thehighcouncilofgallifrey

Do you have any objections to this?

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

*whispering*

We object to the noted exceptions for the War council members. Those not directly involved in the War, or directly distributing orders should be afforded the same protections. To writ, there should be no unauthorized fictional depictions of any Council member.

[101ita-form]

... hmmm...

Current members only? Seems fair enough...

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

Current members, and anyone else deemed to require particular sensitivity, as determined on a case-by-case basis.

[101ita-form]

So long as that excludes Narvin.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

We will not set the precedent of removing legal protections from a certain individual because of one person’s spiteful grudge.

[101ita-form]

No, I just don't think he applies...

[coordinatorofthecia]

I’m a member of the Council!

[101ita-form]

And you do understand that Carmilla is writing about you to deal with the trauma of your death in her timeline... right?

And you're denying her that method of grieving... right...

[coordinatorofthecia]

*hesitates*

My objection is to its publication.

[101ita-form]

Being able to interact with other people about that gave her an outlet

You took that from her because you were rash... you made this whole thing a way bigger deal than it need be... Leela, Sytha, Lilith... they all resent you now, for dragging this out this long... for not just apologising and rescinding before it got this big

[coordinatorofthecia]

I would advise she find some way that doesn’t interfere with governmental processes. One person’s grief does not entitle them to expose another party to public scrutiny. As sympathetic as I may be, I find it difficult to believe that my public humiliation is necessary for her wellbeing. And, even if it was, there’s no reason to prioritize that over intergalactic security.

[101ita-form]

It wasn't public humiliation until you made it public... this is your own fault. Just accept that.

[coordinatorofthecia]

*smiles thinly*

I do believe you’re bluffing. The Council agrees with me, thanks to Thessalia, and even the War Council has its own objections. Only your… ‘Vampire Cabal’ is insisting on this.

Would Carmilla appreciate her grief being weaponized in the forum?

Maybe you should ‘just accept it.’ Unless, of course, your pride forbids it. Then we will see who the Council holds in greater esteem.

[101ita-form]

You're thinking of Lilith... not me.

I'm just trying to make you understand that you torpedoed all your personal relationships because you got red in the face over a piece of fiction.

I'm hosting the archive regardless of what anyone thinks because I'm too valuable of a War asset to be audited over an insignificant piece of fiction.

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

This is treason.

[101ita-form]

You're all pathetic

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

Your value as an asset is directly tied to your loyalty.

You forget, Lolita, that this Council wields the greatest powers in existence. Your enmity would be… inconvenient. We would, admittedly, prefer your cooperation. But we will not tolerate temperamental and unpredictable allies. And if this is where we discover our… incompatibility… it is only to our advantage that it was not on the field of battle.

[101ita-form]

You're going to torpedo the entire timeship fleet and frontline over being depicted on Mo3

No wonder we're losing

[thehighcouncilofgallifrey]

You’re a fool if you believe this was ever about fanfiction
