Hey! I'm interested in trying for an invite the next time they're open since I don't think I can put together a sample I'm happy with in the space of two days, but I have a question about character suitability that I'd like to resolve before the next window.
According to the FAQ, characters "with another personality living inside them" are acceptable on a case-by-case basis. What information would you need to make that judgment? I wouldn't want to show up to the TDM with Alice & Ace and get turned away because I didn't check with you whether they were a fit for the game on that basis.
There's also some weirdness with their age that I should run by you. Ace is an android that was engineered to be an eternal teenager. While the Machias twins have been in their mid-teens for at least a decade (sorry that I can't give you an exact timeframe, Metallic Rouge is vague on the details), they're not adults stuck in a child's body since their mental and emotional states have been a teenager's the entire time. Their behavior and mindsets are indistinguishable from human teens, and there's a conversation in the last act of the show that indicates that both of them still think of themselves as such.
Part of why I want to bring them here is to explore how both of them deal with growing up and human puberty while in a social environment hostile to any deviation, including their plurality, which adds stakes and an additional wrinkle that would make a "being a teen and growing up" arc more interesting than if they were humanized in other games. All that being the case, I want to make sure that they're okay to app since they fall into a grey area in the "mismatched age" clause of non-appable characters.
