Hello! Just some broad lines I would like to establish since the second part of the event is going to come up soon!
Now, I know that Esteban will be available for part 2 (that was asked on Discord), but his mood and goals are going to be vastly influenced by what he has managed (or not) to do with the train.
Esteban is not the best to BE of much help, to be fair; but he is going to offer all that he is (magic, shapeshifting, his soul, if that's what it needs) to give the train any edge into being able to sort itself out. (Impulsive? Esteban? Never!) It's a bit like having him throw himself at a wall and see what part sticks. Whatever help he can offer, he will follow through with it.
The second part, is that Esteban is definitely approaching the train with this... "I will make you my friend, and that is a threat 💛" attitude. He's not likely to take a 'no' lying down, even though communication is rough. Esteban IS gathering that the Train does not communicate At All on the same wavelength as they do, though, and will eventually ask it--them? to teach him their language.
(Drawing this conclusion from a lot of hear-say. "It seemed to pay attention", and that it "had to download a language module to better communicate with the VoidTreckers", lots of little pieces of the puzzle that he's slowly placing together). And Esteban for all of his foolishness does speak three languages fluently and is clearly proactive in learning new ways to communicate. (Thanks Amaya~)
If that is successful at all, of course, I will wait until this happens in the thread to let it influence any other happenings around, but I just wanted to mention it as a warning for what is coming from Esteban's side.
(Also, do let me know if the thread is too much to deal with; I prefer having concrete "this happened/this was said", but if a handwave would be less pressure to deal with, I am alright with doing a handwave of the entire scene too!)
