>What is it?
/u/ put their goggles on tight enough that they started shipping personifications of chemical elements, metals in particular. We started from the nuclear family of a Gold/Silver couple and their daughter Copper, and have been slowly expanding out. Done with a mixture involving some amounts of science and additional amounts of "this would be cute" when it comes to establishing an element or couple. The threads has recently expanded to the rest of the table and has a rough idea for most of the remaining elements but suggestions are welcome.

From the end of the previous thread:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/7486002

I appreciated your comments, thank you.

>>2094344
So I know everyone's waiting on >flonium for FeC getting back together, but what about ScAl?

What's the catalyst there?

>>2094393
Yellow looks like future relationships.

>>2094483
I liked the idea that as they begin to spend more time together it leads Scandium to wonder what exactly their relationship is, until the point where she almost abandons it altogether, which causes Al to properly start a relationship with her.

>>2094393

Purple is a relationship that already has ten years or more
Blue is a more recent one but that has already solidified
Green is a recent or imminent relationship
Yellow is future relationships
Red is FeC

>>2094533
>FeC so special they get their own color
kek

>>2094549

Originally, it was "it's complicated" but only FeC qualified. Since then ThPa and AsBr became eligible, but yeah, I kinda fancied FeC having their own special colour (and ThPa/ASBr's situation aren't as tangled as FeC).

It would be funny if Calcium and Strontium were mistaken for siblings.

Oh Ura, it's been a while

http://archiveofourown.org/works/6683338/chapters/17071618

>>2094977

Or mother/daughter

>>2095707
Uranium's learned a lot.

>>2095707
Oh my~

>>2095739

No real reason actually, Plutonium was the one who got the "fluorescent nuclear" green and it's particularly bright becase Plutonium just does whatever she wants, but it has no deeper meaning, unlike Nep's purple.

Does Terne fully realize her feelings for Steel yet?

>>2095875
I think Steel/Terne was going to be part of the FeC thing. So, timeline-wise, shortly after "present".

>>2096041
Ah, okay! Steel deserves it, and it'll be nice to see Terne blushing over her.

So basically I have a profile of sorts written for 115. Do I post it here?

>>2096256
Sure, or you could temporarily upload it somewhere for the time being.

>>2096256

Pastebin it, but if you plan on writing more I'd advise you to make a AO3 account.

Titanium is the last of the original characters that has nothing written about her, so it's time to give a poor girl something:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/6683338/chapters/17090738

>>2096578
This is a very cute side of Titanium that Vanadium gets to enjoy.

What does Ada think of Vanadium?

>>2097423
>Platinum: Hello, nice to meet you.
>Copper: Er, Plat...

>>2097434
She might think she's dreaming or that she's woken up in some sort of opposite world.

>Electrum: Oh, of course.
>Walks up to Iridos
>Electrum: I'm only going to say this once, so listen up! I really like you!

Iridos either faints or checks to see if Electrum has a fever.

>>2097440
That would explain a lot. In Electrum's case she's become quite used to hiding beneath appearances.

>>2097448
Poor Electrum, if only she could have an easier time facing her true feelings. If Iridos can assuage her crush's insecurities, she'll be all hers.

>>2097453
She might get flustered.

>Electrum: Oh no, I couldn't, I-I mean...you'd look much better in that than...um, well...

>>2097458
The end goal must be their wedding night.

>>2097458
Luckily for her, it doesn't take much to ruffle Electrum's feathers.

>>2094450
>>flonium
I swear that I'll be able to do some fucking writing after this weekend

Don't rush now, we don't want planets aligning :^)
For real though, don't push yourself if you're wiped.

And there it is, the initial draft for 115's profile. Will update as soon as I learn more about the setting and characters, if H and O do make water and/or I git gud at writing.

>>2098112
An interesting draft. Though I'm curious if her generator could be viewed as a pylon.

>>2098112
Wouldn't her name be Moscovium?

>>2098130
No, they are different characters. One portrays element 115 as it exists in RL and the other as it exists in XCOM, so I expect both to be radically different.
They could be fraternal twins.

>>2098132
Huh, I see. That's something to consider, if unconventional.

>>2098132
Fraternal twins might not be possible if Moscov follows the transuranic elements Of course 115 could easily be an exception like 121 or whomever will most likely be.

>>2098112

That's good, I like it.

Although in the interest of clarity, I would drop the 115 appellation, since it's Mc's atomic number, and stick with Elerium.

As for fraternal twins with Mc, it depends on whether or not the transactinides are gynoids or not.

I don't recall, were Scandium's physical attributes ever expounded upon?

>>2098680
Nope, though I think everything involving her kind of paints her to be short and cute.

>>2098681
Haha, that's exactly how I imagined her.

Maybe she could have light blond hair with a faint pink tint.

>>2098681
I see her as sort of a visual foil to Aluminium (short, curvy but not very muscular, long hair)

>>2098703
"Petite" might be a good word. Someone who Aluminum would have an easy time carrying in her arms.

>>2098712
Petite also kind of implies lack of curves.
>>2098703
Sounds like Scandi might have a hard time buttoning her shirts up. Does she have glasses or no?

>>2098713
Just in stature, but nothing too extreme.

I don't think she'd have glasses, though earlier I was thinking about it.

Scandi doesn't sound like the kind of person that could keep Al in check (if such a thing is possible to begin with) like she does.

>>2098735
Looks can be deceiving.

>>2098735
Sounds like a power bottom. She's gotta be quick witted and able to improvise since she can't easily keep Al back, physically, from tangling with Gold like Silver can.

She is pretty clever, just not always where her own feelings are concerned.

Something something promptfic:

http://archiveofourown.org/works/6683338/chapters/17166217

>>2099351
Everything about that is adorable. Cadmium just can't resist.

>>2098713
>Does she have glasses or no?
I vote for glasses Scandium, if only so she can *adjust glasses* at Aluminum when she's exasperated

>>2098735
I don't think she keeps Al in check as much as she steers Al around the worst disasters.

>>2099495
>adjust glasses
That is almost too good to pass up.

>>2098680
So going from two pictures of Sc I grabbed from wiki, I think she'd have very fluffy hair (sort of going from the crystals on the left), and we can take kind of a dusty-blonde color from the one on the right.

>>2099495
Adjusting glasses would be a fun tic for everyone but Al to pick up on

>>2099559
That's a nice combination. Perfect for Al to pat her on the head.

>>2099581
>Scandium going over a report, completely serious face
>"Good job," Aluminium says
>headpat
>Scandium attempts to continue being serious
>hair ruffle
>[glasses adjustment intensifies]

How do Aluminum and Fluorine get along, as the two (I think?) most openly promiscuous characters? (Pre-relationships, anyway)

>>2099583
Secretly, she loves it.

>>2099559
With the way her hair, glasses, and her figure is shaping up to be, she sounds like a harlequin romance heroin in the making. Might be appropriate considering her crush on Al.

>>2099588
Well, aluminium fluoride is used in the treatment of alumina to make aluminium metal.

>>2099590
>she sounds like a harlequin romance heroin in the making.
>heroin

>>2099595
>>heroin
Well, Scandi IS addictive. One headpat and you won't know how to live without them.

>>2099597
I can just see Beryllium joking about Aluminium's "Scandium fix".

>>2099595
>>2099597
Yes yes I used the wrong heroine. Point was, she probably looks like one of those girls on the covers of the books she reads.

>>2099598
I assume Beryllium settling down with Magnesium will be one of the catalysts for Aluminium re-evaluating her relationships beyond "fighter jock making notches on the bedpost".

>>2099598
She'd be 100% correct too.

>>2099599
>cover of a harlequin romance novel
Who would be the metall/u/rgy version of Fabio? Gold?

>>2099604
She probably would be the one on a book cover somewhere.

>>2099604
Gold or Ada back when she was younger. Gold fits actually enjoying it while Ada would fit the physique better. Ada could explain it away as an interesting little story about needing some money so she did some amateur modeling.

>>2099606
I guess that's where Titanium got it from.

>>2099604
Gold or Aluminium, probably.
Aluminium for being one of the more "handsome" characters (she's mentioned as being rather toned, probably for her military past), or Gold for just straightforward beauty.

>>2099609
Only problem with that, is if the military would have any problems with it unless Ada's little contract or whatever specifically mentioned that they needed to alter her image or whatever. Not sure really.

>>2099611
>Aluminium poses on romance novel covers
>Scandium collects every single one
>after the relationship they pose for one together

>>2099613
You know in the Captain America movies all the title character did for a while was PR for the Army? Maybe Ada is the same.
Hell, Cap's shield is an Adamantium/Vibranium alloy.

>>2099621
That is true, I suppose it would depend on the setting's political climate then. Ada's just like probably the best equivalent to the setting's Fabio since she's basically an amazon with the proportions to boot, most likely.

Mithril might get a little jealous of others admiring Ada if that happens.

>>2099631
Maybe that's how Mithril came to meet her? Well aside from her parents dragging her on a tour of a base and just looking around. She was in her teens when they first met.

>>2099637
The latter seems the most likely. They were probably introduced to each other.

>>2099640
>This is Adamantium
>you might know her from the recruitment posters, or from airport bookshelves
>[deep Mithril blush]

>>2099645
Oh shit that reminds me. Mithril would probably talk to Gold about meeting her and how she might've, almost, blurted out something about Ada's abs and if they were like the cover on that one book.

>>2099645
>Ada: It's a pleasure, miss. I've heard about you from your mother.

After that, it was forever sealed.

So if Ada and Al were both in different branches of the military, was there a rivalry there?

>>2099664
There's like a good decade or so between them, so probably not. Maybe with Be depending on Be's age but Al is most likely not.

>>2099669
I think Al and Be were around the same age, so probably not then.

>>2099616
>>2099645
I'm not sure which of these is more adorable

>>2099602
Beryl commenting on it could be a good shove in the right direction for Al. Though how would Be settle down with Mg?

>>2099697
I don't think we know enough about either of them to say that for sure right now.

>>2099709
Don't know enough about which either? Be and Al or Be and Mg?

>>2099727
BeMg.

>>2099730
True though it's not like it wouldn't be hard to expand on them considering they both know Aluminium and probably met through her.

>>2099588

That's a good idea, I'd say they would be regular bed buddies before F got together with Kr and Xe.

>>2099697
>Though how would Be settle down with Mg?

Simplest route would be that they met through Al.

>>2099927
Or they (Al and F) could have seen each other as competitors.

>>2100032

That's not really F's character, though.

>>2100038
Maybe it was one sided on Al's part then.

>>2100042

That'd be still weird; F is just a dentist that enjoys life to the fullest, I don't see Al seeing her as a rival.

>>2100049
Not as a rival per se, just another person who Al would "compete" or try to measure up with, however lightly.

>>2100042
I think >>2099927 is the more natural thing for their characters; Al's attitude to sex seems much more carefree than what drives her relationships with Iron and Gold. It fits better with
>>2099595
>Well, aluminium fluoride is used in the treatment of alumina to make aluminium metal.
too, since fooling around with Fluorine could explain some of Al's attitudes.

>>2100058
I suppose so, though to be honest I think anything is more interesting than "they also just slept together."

It would have been a positive "rivalry," if that makes sense. Fluorine can have an influence on her outside of bed.

>>2100060
>I think anything is more interesting than "they also just slept together."

But it makes perfect sense with Al and F who have been established since long that they have a carefree attitude to sex.

A rivalry doesn't make much sense in the context of F and Al, since F's field of activity has no overlap with Al's.

>>2100073
Rivalry is too strong of a word, it would be more like a shared "have a nice time tonight" between them if anything.

The use of aluminum fluoride in the production of aluminum would parallel her inspiring Al to enjoy herself.

>>2100060
>>2100073
>>2100079
They sound like club/drinking buddies more than sex friends.

>>2100081
Yeah, that makes sense.

>>2100081

I don't want to be pushy about it, but when two frivolous and sex-oriented persons often hang with each other, it would really stretch my suspension of disbelief that nothing ever happened.

It's not a big deal; it's just a bit of history that already belongs to the past since F is now involved with her two personal noble gases.

>>2100093
I didn't say they couldn't've had sex in the past, it's just that the way it was being presented made them out to be drinking buddies more than two people who meet up for sex.

>>2100081
>They sound like club/drinking buddies more than sex friends.
I don't think Al really did "sex friends" as much as long strings of one-night stands. So while they might have slept together, them mostly being drinking buddies makes sesnse.

>>2100093
It's entirely reasonable that nothing happened between them. Just because they're casual about it in general doesn't mean they had to have slept together.

But yeah, that's not the focus now.

>>2100095

At the same time, I don't really see Al as someone that drags on the drinking bit; I always had the impression that she mainly drinks and parties to pick up girls for the night.

>>2100408
They honestly both feel like social drinkers, so wing women might work better. I don't think the setting has a heavy drinker unless that's what Th or 115 does in their spare time

>>2100411
Don't forget Po.

>>2100412
True though that probably stopped when she hit her late thirties

>>2100411
>115
I don't know about Moscovium, but I can say that Elerium doesn't drink alcohol. At all.
She actually prefers to avoid liquids altogether. Drinking water is fine, but rainy days are quite a no-no for her, and will go out of her way to stay indoors. If splashed with water, she will drop whatever she was doing to dry herself.
Her bathroom has a complex compressed air system she uses to wash herself.

>>2100567
Hmmm, very peculiar.

>>2100571
Not really, and I just figured out why: she almost drowned when she was very young, and the trauma with water still haunts her.

>>2100573
Very oddly specific. Here I was thinking it was just another hint towards her being an alium. Does she have a pet viper

>>2100600
She IS an ayy lmao, but she's really subtle about it.

>pet viper
I can see that. She would be called Zrbite.

>>2100415

Nope, Po continues.

Also I REALLY don't see Al as a heavy drinker; nothing about her points to this, quite the opposite in fact.

>>2100722
>quite the opposite in fact.
Oh lord. If Gold finds out she can drink Al under the table, Al will never hear the end of it.

>>2100722
Po definitely cut back once Tl began living with her, though. Her family is what matters the most to her.

okay now that my sister and my sister-in-law don't need me to do anything but sleep off my pending hangover I'm going to get back to writing things again

To try and get back in the habit, I'm thinking about taking daily prompts from the thread here; do people think this is a good idea, or...?

eh I'll be back when I'm sober

>>2101397
Ponder on this while you are drunk: if Oxygen and Hydrogen drink water, is it cannibalism?

>>2101397
>To try and get back in the habit, I'm thinking about taking daily prompts from the thread here; do people think this is a good idea, or...?

I say look at one of the daily prompt lists form 31 days on livejournal and pick one that inspires you something.

>>2101397
Do a mix of thread prompts, or help with fleshing Iron and Carbon out, and the 31 day prompts that MS and KB use.

>Copper (child): When I grow up, I'm going to marry you, mom (Silver)
>Silver looks at Gold with a "this is so cute I might cry" expression
>Gold: Why does it seem like you're about to ask for my permission...?

>>2102047
So did child Electrum set her sights on Aunt Ada and subtly invoke Mi's jealousy?

>>2102062
Mithril might respond by wearing her sexiest lingerie the next night.

>Ada: Wait, don't tell me you're taking this seriously?

>>2102067
As long as she can make a quip about Ada remembering the one ring she wears I'd be happy

>>2102071
Though in this case, it's a matching pair.

>>2102073
Whatever works for a Sauron joke.

>>2102075
Considering Mithril was probably the one who designed them, Ada would most likely attribute even more significance to it.

>>2102075
The joke falls apart when you consider the One Ring was made of simple gold.

>>2102080
This is true, but it was also in part with Sauron being a smith.
>>2102079
Sounds like a set for a 'X rings for Y...' if there is a story behind it.

>>2102083
It's all in a day's work for Mithril.

Aluminum, Scandium. 100 words.

Saltines?

She'd always bring a snack when going swimming.

>>2102743
Here I was thinking you were going to make a joke. I'm not real sure what her favorite food would be.

>>2102763
It does sound like the setup for a joke! It just doesn't have a punchline yet.

Maybe she likes kimchi.

>>2102790
Hmmm, I can't think of a good joke for her.

Oh wait, here's one:

What would you call Iodine if she gained a large amount of money?

Enriched.

>>2102828

Alright, so after writtIng quite a lot, I tried my hand at drawing.

I had this design of Americium in mind basically since I made her profile (although she originally lacked the hood) and really wanted to flesh it out.

>>2103447
That's really cool, looks very helpful for Ga and Cd!

>>2103447
Very nice, you think you'll end up doing the rest of the non-human looking gynoids later?

>>2103478

I'd like to, but it's going to be quite a long later.

It's the same old problem: if I'm working on that, I'm not working on fics, and I would like to reduce my writing backlog.

So Sulfur is, most likely, bright blonde, but what else?

>>2103697
Demur since it sounded like she was the quiet one of her sisters.

>>2103707
Definitely so. It would almost be hard not to be next to them.

Would she be a little taller, or the same height?

>>2103710
How tall is her gf? Also are we striving for elder sibling while SeTe are twins or triplets since I'm blanking on that.

>>2103711
Phosphorus seems like she'd have some stature, but that's not actually based on anything.

She's the older sibling, SeTe are twins.

>>2103713
>Phosphorus seems like she'd have some stature, but that's not actually based on anything.

Well in french we do have an expression that translates as "skinny like a match".

>>2103717
Might work against the fact that Phosphorous is suppose to be a farmer and some sort of land baron iirc. Or was Sulfur the baron? Sulfur could be the skinny as a match one since she has a more clerical job, doesn't she?

>>2103717
Well, that does fit.

Sulfur could be just a bit taller than her sisters.

>>2103722
Sulfur has her own company, iirc.

Phosphorus could be naturally lean.

>>2103731
Sounds like P might be otto modo if she unintentionally capitalizes on that natural lean.

>>2103754
That's perfect for Sulfur to admire and then wrap her arms around in an intimate hug.

To clarify, P would probably be more toned than outright muscular.

>>2103766
>>2103962
Of course, P's muscles would be for actual use not show. How's Sulfur look or built outside of being taller than her sisters?

>>2104003
She'd probably be on the slim side herself too, and would dress in a simple, professional manner for work. Her hair might also be fairly long.

She might seem more tired than usual after dealing with her sisters, between that and work.

>>2103962

As an aside, P would not be particularly toned, even if she's a farmer. She would have employees and sophisticated farm machinery, so it doesn't really tell anything about her physique.

>>2104072
She would? Aside from K I hadn't even considered that any other people would work there, not to say it doesn't make sense if there were.

Even so, P would still have the chance to do some physical activity.

>>2104207

Definitely; her farm is very big, so she needs people.

I'm personally on the lean P, but regardless of what is decided, P's occupation would not necessarily play a role in that.

>>2104211
She should be lean, and if she was well toned too it wouldn't conflict with that.

So who are the fittest girls in the setting? Ti, Ada, Al, Be, P, and who else? Mo?

>>2104669
Chlorine would be in good shape from swimming, and I imagine Ori would be fairly fit too.

>>2104671
I forgot about Ori, though I'm sure Cl would be comparable to P only probably more apparent. Who would be a surprisingly fit metal? Silver?

>>2104677
Mithril is definitely stronger than she looks, but that likely translates to emotional strength.

Oh, what about W?

>>2104680
Right forgot about W and Te, and Iron to a degree though it wouldn't be as surprising. Oh and the firewomen. I could see Mithril being surprisingly strong and potentially bridal carrying Ada or firewoman carrying her daughter.

>>2104683
>Te beats Se at arm wrestling
>"Well, my breasts are bigger," responds Se

>Mithril bridal carrying Ada
Now that would be a sight to see.

>Or firewoman carrying her daughter
Hahahaha. She must have taken lessons from Cd and Ga.

>>2104687
I'm sure Iodine is big enough for the both of them. Speaking of adult Titanium, who's taller; Mi or Ti? Ada is obviously the tallest in the family

>>2104693
Both Ada and Ti would most likely be taller than Mithril, or at least it would be fun that way.

Would it be too off the mark to picture her with long, wavy dark hair?

>>2104696
Picture who with dark wavy hair? Ti, Ada, or Mi?

>>2104697
Mithril, sorry.

>>2104698
I could see long, and wavy dark silver hair. If that makes sense. Like the silver is more of a luster similar to how red can be in dark auburn hair. The long would probably perfectly compliment Ada's most likely shoulder hair and Ti's whatever style, I wanna say slightly long usually in a braid or a ponytail.

>>2104700
Ah, that would work really well! Funnily enough, I thought Mi could have worn her hair in a ponytail when she was younger, around the time she met Ada. Maybe she also would have had a school uniform then.

>>2104701
I like the ponytail idea. She could gently twirl it when talking to Gold about Ada or just other cute girls before Silver caught Gold's eye. Maybe cutely tug on it while pouting when AuAg are being overly affectionate in public and she's feeling slightly jealous.

>>2104704
On the day she met Ada she must have been sulking before they met, and then more afterwards as she worried about her attempts to seduce her (which are actually successful).

It was probably a weekend unless there's a military base close to the school district. Still I'm sure she immediately called Gold to worry about her amateur seduction.

>>2104725
I wonder what sort of advice Gold had for her?

>>2104732
Comical advice with a few grains of salt about knowing when to back off so things don't sour or get them into trouble.

>>2104739
That's wise.

>"If you act like you've succeeded, you basically already have!"

Fortunately for Mi, Ada didn't need too much convincing.

>>2104749
Yes Mi was very fortunate seducing the setting's Fabio. Though this has got me thinking. Did Gold initiate things with Silver or was Silver the first one to make a move?

>>2104751
That's a good question...if Gold had her eyes on her, Silver may have noticed and asked her out on a date.

>>2104759
Sounds like a tough decision. On one hand, you got the obvious of Silver going after Gold in a classic romance style. On the other, the possibility of Gold initiating things could have rather fun applications of Electrum frequently asked how they got together. Perhaps it was a mix of both with Gold initiating and Silver doing a bit of playing hard to get to make sure Gold was serious.

>>2104764
In that case, it sounds like their confessions might have been mutual. I don't know if Silver would have been coy, she was too captivated by Gold. And Gold by her too. Along with her wife, Silver is the most beautiful woman in the city.

>>2104766
>Along with her wife, Silver is the most beautiful woman in the city.
Go to bed Gold.
I do like that idea though of them confessing at the same time after some flirting and teasing. Might've subtly fed into Electrum's design to have a fairytale romance or whatever it is. Oh it could also feed into some cute scenes with Mithril where Gold and her are trying to come up with a memorable way to confess.

>>2104769
If only Electrum realized how close she is to having it!

Teenage Mithril and Gold talking about what they think their future wives will be like is a cute thought.

Very nice, I'll have to update my metall/u/rgy car list.

>It beat her McLaren

You just know that Gold will claim the superiority of the McLaren as a authentic race-bred machine and considers the Veyron as a gaudy, vulgar and unrefined overweighted piece of scrap.

>>2104846

>Veyron
Come now, obviously Silicon has the best car since she has a Koenigsegg

>>2104901

I'd say Si has a Eunos Cosmo, given the gigantic amount of electronics that thing carried for its time.

I actually pictures C as being the one with the McLaren, since it was the first production car with a carbon monocoque, but now I don't see what car could fit her

>>2104907

...but now that I think about it, C can have a Koenigsegg, the Regera.

>>2104914
Is it a gift from Si?

>>2104920

Sort of, C placed an order for a plain CCX, but Si changed it for a Regera.

She was, but for all the awesomeness of C's hypercar, it's not as cool as Steel's own car.

>>2105079
Truly something Plat would gush over.

>>2105083

Certainly; being Cu's friend, she got to see Au and Ag's garage with mesmerized eyes, as well as Ti's car. Maybe she shouldn't get near C's estate in order to avoid a heart attack.

Who are the Metallurgyverse's equivalents of Clarkson, Hammond, and May?

>>2104846
>You just know that Gold will claim the superiority of the McLaren as a authentic race-bred machine and considers the Veyron as a gaudy, vulgar and unrefined overweighted piece of scrap.
Oh, definitely. There's a great quote from the F1's original designer basically calling the Veyron exactly that, which Gold probably had embossed and sent to Aluminium's office.

>>2104907
>I actually pictures C as being the one with the McLaren, since it was the first production car with a carbon monocoque
I gave it to Gold because the McLaren had legitimate engineering reasons for having gold in it. Picking a single car for C is hard, but >>2105061
picked a good one.

>>2105120
Aluminium and Platinum could probably get the Clarkson and May roles down, I'm not sure who I'd cast as Hammond.

>>2105128
>There's a great quote from the F1's original designer basically calling the Veyron exactly that

I made that comment with that quote in mind; Gold and Aluminium are like two kids fighting over which of the SNES or the Genesis/Megadrive is better.

>I gave it to Gold because the McLaren had legitimate engineering reasons for having gold in it.

They put gold in the engine bay because it's the best heat reflector.

>Aluminium and Platinum could probably get the Clarkson and May roles down, I'm not sure who I'd cast as Hammond.

Funnily enough, I used Clarkson as inspiration for In, and accordingly, gave her a Ford GT.
But Se wasn't impressed with its fuel economy.

I'm surprised to see /u/ get this /o/ without one Subaru Outback

>>2105250

That's because you haven't seen my Metall/u/rgy car list, it's there, along with two other Subarus.

>>2105273
Is it posted somewhere?

>>2105333

No, I made it mostly for myself; to better picture the characters and keep things consistent should their cqrs be featured or talked about in fics.

>>2105273
Does Iodine have one?

>>2105551

No, but Xe, Rb and Ga (for no particular reason actually, I just thought it fitted them).

>>2105595
Maybe Ga is an outdoors aficionado

>>2105599

But not if it's too hot outside, she might melt.

Cadmium: Chin length "bluish-gray" hair?

She can also make Ga melt.

>>2105803

Shouldn't she have silvery hair with a very light gold tinge?

>>2105932
She could be, but it appears to mostly be described as silvery blue-white or blue-gray.

I want to see Tin and Lead's wedding photos.

>>2106640
I bet Tin played at her own wedding.
This makes me wonder if Tin is the setting equivalent to Barry Manilo or someone similar.

>>2106868
Aw, that's an adorable thought.

Well, Galinstan is basically already the self-elected president of her fan club.

>>2105935

Pewter also has silvery blue hair, but I guess Cd can have a more reflective colour.

The silvery with gold tinge also is Ni's colour.

>>2106880

Surely Galinstan asked Tin if she could see her in her wedding dress.

>>2107190
Either that or Cd can have a darker, more gray shade.

Actually, since Ga is clearly silvery-blue, I'd give it to her with Cd being silvery-gold, although not as much as Ni.>>2107243

>Copper would have been a little girl then, right?

Cu was born when Pb was 20 and Sn 18, so if they got married when PB was 25 and Sn 23, Cu would've been and adorably shy 5 year old, and Gold would've been carrying Electrum.

>>2107266
Wouldn't that make Pb and Sn older than Au and Ag?

>>2107278

Nah, just that they got married later, at year zero Ag is 40, Pb 40, Au 39 and Sn 38.

By the way that would also mean Terne was already born at that time.

>>2107280
But if Cu is 21 (or 22?) and was born when Pb was 20, that would make her at least 41, right?

It also means Au was only 18 when she was pregnant. That seems off.

Is there something I'm completely missing? I'm not good at math.

>>2107287

Cu is 20, when she was born Ag was 20 and Ag 19

>>2107288
Oooh, that makes more sense.

Has Indium Gallium (the alloy) been discussed? The eutectic has absurd liquid temperature range, and in most electronics manufacture, it will wet any material surface of interest.

>>2107322
Galinstan is the adopted daughter of Gallium and Cadmium, and she's also distantly related to Indium.

Probably just in a drawer somewhere.

>>2107543
That'd be interesting if no one else in the setting was really aware of it and they stumbled across it.

>>2107563
Sounds like it could be a job for Steel.

>>2107567
Yeah though would the trophy read Iron or a pseudonym like Ferrum or Ferra?

>>2107568
Those would be fitting, hmm.

>>2107573
Could be a good little story to have Steel and Iron bond.

>>2107577
That's a really nice idea.

>>2107563
Maybe it was something Iron did when she was off finding herself/running away from her problems?

>>2107612
Zinc's reaction to it would be interesting to see as well.

>>2107612
Could be, that's what I was thinking. Spent a year or two in a foreign place and got talked into doing some divekick that was eventually became semi-pro or something. Uni level would be good if she went to a big uni.

Gold's Q&A!

"What's the secret to a good relationship?"

Gold: "You have to have good chemistry."

How tall is Iron? Numbers wise at least

>>2107629
"You have to heat upthe atmosphere so they can melt in your hands. If you manage that, you're golden"

>>2107712
About 192-196 cm I'd say.

Also KB9, you feel like writing more lesbins metals, I have some Mercury fics ideas.

>>2107870
"And once they're yours, treasure them."

Scandium and Iridos are taking notes.

>>2107870
>About 192-196 cm I'd say.
That places her taller than Po-chan. Now I wonder how tall Steel and Carbon are.

>>2107870
No promises, but I'm up for another one-shot, or maybe even something longer. If you'd like a private collaboration, mail to kb9vcn at gmail dot com.

>>2108249

I don't know about a private collaboration, at least not right now seeing as I already struggle with own writing scheldule and on top of that the Summer cup is right around the corner, I'll think about it for a time I'll be more free.

For now it was more about just throwing some ideas, for example, the relationship between Hg and her gynoid Cm, or the relationship of Hg with her two pseudo daughters Pd and Pt (and maybe Cl's relationship with them)

>>2108269

Shall I write for Palladium? She's new to me, and I believe she has only two scenes with Astatine so far.

Palladium's bio has her as "serious, stoic, and professional." I'll bet Mercury and Chlorine drive her crazy.

I probably shouldn't write for Platinum at length. She loves cars, but I know as little about cars as Copper.

>>2108952
>I probably shouldn't write for Platinum at length.
You could probably capitalize on her being a bit of a dense airhead. Maybe a little family get together where Pd talked Astatine into coming along and Pt brought Cobalt.

>>2108952
I like to think she's immaculately organised and serious, in contrast to At's... At, but she's also totally fine with people who aren't.

>>2108952

I put bits of Pd and Pt in Hg's profile, but it's quite vague.

Seeing as Hg is her guardian since she was young, I think she knows what to expect from her pseudo-mother since long.

As for Pt, this >>2108955 is a very good idea, maybe with Cl as well; and I think that Co's facetious side would get along well with Hg.

But don't tease poor As too much.

>>2109054
Would Pt be semi-aware of her denseness and use it to throw out double entendres and subtle naughty jokes with a straight face.

>>2109230

Pt doesn't strike me as that, I think she's genuinely as dense as a bag a rocks.

If anything, Co would be this sly.

Any ideas for Barium?

>>2109926
There was some discussed a few threads back but nothing's coming to mind unfortunately.

>>2109927
Hmmm, almost a complete mystery, then.

>>2109934
I believe, iirc, she's friends with B and Lathanum from B's uni days and that they're still friends. That was about the only bit really established. Outside of possibly being into science.

>>2109947
She's also apparently a student of Strontium, and, of course, is going to be together with Hafnium; just to cover what's been established.

What's with all the deleted posts earlier in the thread?

>>2109959
How would she get together with Hafnium?

>>2109976
Assuming they met together in class, and/or through mutual friends...

Barium must have liked her, but there's still the chance Hafnium initiated it. Barium does seems like she'd be the more outgoing of the two. Maybe she just kissed her while the two were on an outing together.

>>2109981
Maybe it was Hafnium more than Barium. I don't think Hafnium's been expanded a lot outside of I think being a friend with someone.

>>2109990
Hafnium also looks up to Zirconium, which might be what you're thinking of. Physically, outside of Hf being chubby, neither her nor Barium have had their appearances discussed yet.

>>2109992
Why's Hf chubby? Closest one I can remember to being a bit chubby was Zr because of various things. Though yeah looking up to Zr was probably what I was thinking of.

>>2109994
That's because Hafnium, as a metal, is more dense than Zirconium.

>>2109990

Hf was B's girlfriend for two years, so she might have more experience.

And since Ba was a uni friend of B, maybe they met through her.

>>2110079
Sounds plausible and incredibly likely if they went to a party together or out for drinks. Though now I' curious about how she became Sr's understudy and whether or not she saw some of the real bad arguments between Sr and Calcium.

>>2110120
>how she became Sr's understudy

I imagine it was a rather classic story of Ba attending Sr's classes and them developing a stronger teacher-pupil relationship (same with B).

I would think that Sr and Ca would keep their relationship stuff for the intimacy of their home, although it would be funny for them to try to hide their relationship while everybody and their mothers know they're together.

>>2110140
>Sr's mother
Well one, I was going off the notion/idea that Sr is around Zr's age in addition to being a potential coworker and that one of the more interesting bits for SrCa was that they started off on the wrong foot and kind of butt heads something fierce. Because of how Sr can lead to bone damage or something, I think was the reasoning for why science-wise.

>>2110143
>I was going off the notion/idea that Sr is around Zr's age

I see her as actually older, closer to Hg.

The reason to that is the fact Sr was mainly used in CRT displays, but since that technology has been supplanted by LCD and plasma, Sr use has sharply decreased, so there's a general atmosphere of dusk in this character.

>>2110146
I like it, though that probably stretches the gap between Calcium and Sr. Got the feeling Calcium was just entering her mid-twenties. Still I'm on board with that reasoning to make Sr older and it would help explain why she's probably mostly confined to being a teacher and met Ba that way.

>>2110149

Actually I think Ca is around 30, which still makes a significant gap with Sr.

>>2110154
True enough, I like it. Though what has me curious now is why Sr would continue to butt heads with CA after the first two or three times.

>>2110162

Maybe she's jaded and somewhat grumpy.

But it's improving thanks to Ca

>>2110163
Well Ca and Ba. Maybe Ba more at the start until she realizes why arguing with Ca can be invigorating.

>>2110164

I can see Sr being completely focused in helping Ba and B, probably thinking that, at her age, it was the only thing she could have going on.

Then, Ca happened.

>>2110168
Sounds like Sr has a tough life, like Zr.

>>2110170

Yes but I think the main difference is that Zr is a doctor while Sr is a teacher. Zr got a much stressful life and started realising quite early that loneliness was getting to her. Meanwhile, Sr could focus on teaching and was much more oblivious to the fact that life was passing her by. Zr's angst would be a product of her loneliness while Sr's grumpiness would be a product of her age.

On other news, I finished the ThPo lewdfic I promised, it's long overdue and I'm sorry about that:

As a bonus, I also found Polonium's song:

>where Polonium’s rested head

You sure?

>>2110687

Reasonably so, she's an old spinster that gets her well-adjusted routine turned upside down by this upbeat doctor, you can see why she's reluctant to radical changes

Ca's innocent charms will mellow her over time

>>2110764
>You sure?
No, I feel silly missing that. Should be 'where Polonium's head rested' which I'm sure you got.
Don't forget Ca's possible bright eyed innocence hidden behind small amounts of cynicism that tries to make her more jaded than she is.

>>2110774
>Don't forget Ca's possible bright eyed innocence hidden behind small amounts of cynicism that tries to make her more jaded than she is.

Really?

>>2110781
Not really, it was just too good to pass up in jest. She's probably getting worn down considering her age.

>>2110786

Ca? she's still fairly young.

>>2110788
Around thirty is young? I suppose, probably to Sr and all the other older women in the setting she would be.

Calcium is the kind of woman who Strontium can lean on for emotional support.

>>2111185

Thirty is reasonably young, yes, especially for a doctor or even a teacher; she's roughly at the beginning of her career.

Their first meeting must have been like looking into a mirror.

>>2112036
Who's? Rhodium and Ruthenium's?

>>2112051
That would have been their birth!

Calcium and Strontium are who I was referring to.

>>2112059
Well a mirror from the future/past for them. would be fun if a fatigued or drunk Calcium called Strontium mum when they started to become friends.

>>2112076
Now this is starting to remind me of Copper.

They'd look like sisters when they go out together, but sometimes Strontium would take on a decidedly motherly tone when her responsible side comes out, and Calcium loves that about her.

>>2112083
Sr's hair is also probably more silvery or not as blonde as Calcium's if we're going for doppelganger potential.

>>2112083

Ca likes to be scolded by Sr

>>2112096
A fainter, lighter shade sounds right.

>>2112098
She might intentionally make some mistakes then when she thinks Sr is watching.

>>2112098
>not a praise kink
Come now, not everything can be about punishment.

>>2112132

Why not both?

I was just talking about light scolding, when Sr puts her motherly hat on.

>>2112142
Both is good.

So if Ada, Au, and Al are the cover girls/fabio-esque figures for the setting's trashy romance novels, who is the biggest romance author? Antimony or some rather surprising like Argon under a pseudonym?

>>2113759
>Antimony or some rather surprising like Argon under a pseudonym?
I vote for Astatine

>>2113780
I like it, though Astatine's age might be a hindrance. Of course, it could just be that the author and the series that made Ada semi-famous passed away and Ast is shaping up to be the author's replacement.

>>2113776

Nice

>>2113759

Po
You know it is

>>2113780
Ooh, I like this.

I can just imagine her successful series of novels about the whirlwind romance of people who are transparently herself and Palladium

>>2113787
>Po
That'd be too good considering it'd supplement her helping Rn, though how would it be a lesser known thing? It'd be pretty cute if Tl found some and asked if Po knows the author.
Eventually asking in something of a flustered rush if her aunt could get her a signed copy of her favorite one.

>>2113780

>Sb: "Oh my goddess, what have I done?"

So what did Rn write?

>>2113804
>So what did Rn write

A long-running science-fiction series of books

Unobtainium's space odyssey

>>2113805
I like it. The setting and stories must have come about from all the time she was confined to a hospital bed. Though I'm sure Po writing romance was probably a huge surprise for her

>>2113807
>Po was actually the one who wrote that KB9 alt Praseo/alt Neo story

>>2113805
Would Unobtainium have sold well in the beginning or did it take a while to pick up steam?

>>2113833

I was an instant (and then continuous) success

>>2113802
Maybe Astatine got her start in fanfic of Polonium's work?

>>2113844

Rn's work you mean? It'd be glorious

>>2113849
Either or.
I suppose the sci-fi would make more sense for Astatine's general geekiness.

>>2113849
The pottery would be pretty delicious. This makes me think that Po's novels are deeper and possibly more complex than the run of the mill ones that were her competition. Well in the present. I'm sure they might've been pretty average in the beginning. Probably from telling stories to Rn's to keep her spirit up.

On the other hand, Scandium is definitely the author of a least a few (mental) stories about her and Al.

>>2113864
Definitely has a few moleskin journals filled to the brim with romantic flights of fancy.

>>2113871
I wonder where she would hide them once her and Al are living together?

>>2113874

She'd donate them to her most dedicated fan

Iridos

Also, isn't it time for a new thread?

>>2113876
Who is continuing the tradition of love from afar herself, albeit with the intention of closing that gap.

But, if Al ever did happen find and read them, it would hit her harder than anything else and probably make her think, "I need to marry this girl."

>>2113881
Just about.

>>2113881
I'd make one using the AuAg family portrait but I'm away from my computer unfortunately.

>>2113885
