I'd just like to interject here regarding our first post, since it seems some people are weirded out by the length. 

That isn't what we're going to consider standard for this RP. It was an establishing scene meant not only to explain where our characters were and what they were doing, but to illustrate their prior relationship (they've been working together for a few months now) and to get us in a position where we can be immediately involved in whatever is going down in town. 

Is it long? Yes. It's a collaborative post by two people that, were it not meant as an establishing scene, we probably would have broken down into a couple of posts and put up separately. We chose to have one of us do it all at once to get it out of the way, so everyone can get to the action. We aren't showing off, waving our dicks (well, Idle is female, so I guess I'm not waving [i]my[/i] dick) or trying to set a high standard from the outset. We started it hours before the first post ever went up so that people would at least know where our characters were, what they were doing, and why they're in town that day instead of out in the middle of nowhere doing cowboy stuff. 

Does this clear things up and maybe make people a little more comfortable with the length?
