[OOC] Tverios: The Conquest

[Lexicon]

Quantity doth not equal quality lol.

[Eschatologist]

Fuckin ouch. Shots fired.

Though, as Napoleon said, "Quantity has a Quality all its own"

[Lexicon]

Oh no no, Eschatologist. That wasn't a comment about anyone in general. Sorry if it came off that way. I tend to post slower and longer posts due to my real life schedule. I simply cannot post as often as some folks. I apologize if I made that sound like some kind of personal dig. Unintentional.

[Eschatologist]

Man, I did not take it that way at all. Even if I had misinterpreted it, I like to think I've got thick enough skin to take a friendly jab.

Tl;dr, You're my bro, bro.

[Athinar]

And at least the delays aren't that long. *shrug*

[Vahir]

Alright, I feel like we've become bogged down with this business on the isles. How about we skip ahead already to the invasion itself?

[Eschatologist]

Let's do it

[Lexicon]

I'll have something up either tomorrow or Wednesday, I promise. Just let me do one more post on the isles and then we can skip ahead. I don't mean to hold everyone up, but I tend to take a little longer to post due to real life busy-ness. I apologize but give me two more days and then we can move on. Otherwise, I'll have to scrap everything I've already written.

@Lexicon

It's fine, take your time. Quality over quantity. While you do that, I'll prepare my own post, with the main army setting sail, with your departure imminent.

At least with all these leavers, all the players are working together in the same mission, and I don't need to manage a split up anymore.

[Lexicon]

I appreciate it, Vahir. Just out of curiosity, since I'm about to run off to work, what is everyone's writing process like? I tend to come up with a general idea, madly type out a first draft then expand it into something semi-readable and then finally edit it once before posting it. Then I edit it again and again lol. It's a bit time consuming, especially since I don't have much free time, but it kinda works for me. What about you, folks? Also, Wednesday will be the day, I promise.

@Lexicon

Personally, I can't write without inspiration, so I'm not usually working on anything. When I do get an idea, usually of specific scenes, I write them separate from each other, and then try to work the story to link between them.

[Lexicon]

Alright, y'all, I just need to edit this and then I can slap it up. It'll get Myra on the boat, have her meet her soldiers, and then we'll be good to get going. Thanks for being patient.

[Lexicon]

I posted and I pronounce it...adequate. I'll still fiddle with it over the coming days, but I think it's alright. I'll add Trooper Larius Pyral and Trooper Vladimir Mogdan to my 'Dramatis Personae' list eventually.

[Vahir]

Wow, that's quite a post, in quantity, at least. I'll have to read it through to judge on its quality.

I'll start working on my post in earnest.

[Eschatologist]

10/10 post. Can't wait to get this show on the road, this RP has got me by the balls.

[Vahir]

Well, I got my own post up, although now it feels inadequate in contrast.

[Lexicon]

What?! No way, your post was the perfect send off and a nice wrap up for our time on the isles. I want thinking, oddly enough, that Myra and Oromis might have a lot in common. Chances are they are the two oldest people in the entire army, and they've both led bloody, violent lives. A conversation between the two might be interesting if a God-King and a lowly sellsword weren't so far apart status-wise lol.

EDIT: Also, are Wolong and our spymaster still with us? Or did they peace out?

EDIT EDIT: Also, page two! Woo hoo!

@Lexicon

DDblade left, and @H3x disappeared, but I can't exactly have their characters just vanish. Instead, they'll be elsewhere doing other stuff (Working with Oromis and spying, respectively). That way, even if by some freak accident one of them comes back to the RP, their character will still be around.

[Lexicon]

Oh, I figured you wouldn't have their characters just cease to exist. I was simply wondering if @H3x was still around, honestly. Good to know. Talking to Athinar about a sailing post now.

[Lexicon]

Made some small adjustments to my post. I hate how "back and forthy" it gets between Vladimir and Myra, but I suppose it makes sense. Huh, ah well. Going to add Dagmar, Larius, and Vladimir to my 'Dramatis Personae' section in my CS.
