I'm. . sorry? Are you trying to be passive-aggressive with me?


What?
No?
I've just had some partners where we started a rp and never really... finished starting it, or continued. So instead, we just talked. The OOC pm for the roleplay would essentially become a chat pm.

I mean, I didn't mean it to be passive aggressive? More like playful?

Oh, alright. My apologies then.

It's been a bit of a rough week with a few friends, so I've been on edge more than usual. I understand that you're fearful of that and I'll try my best to not allow that. I admit that I'm a free spirit and sometimes it is hard for me to sit down and focus on posts for a long amount of time and I may appear like a flake because of that. And I'm sorry if I've given you that type of impression, but I won't drop the Roleplay unless I'm bored of it, taking a hiatus or have bad blood with my partner.

So far we have none of those. I think we'll be good.

Hey, you're fine. Forgiven!

Well, if you ever wanna talk anything out, you've got me! If I can't handle the bad side of a friend, I'm not deserving of their good side.

I am fearful of it, yes, but if a friendship or something doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. Granted, there have been some really stupid reasons behind someone refusing to like me anymore, so maybe I'm more just afraid of someone NOT being reasonable or something...? I dunno.

Free spirit?
I think you mean...


What's up, friend?

Thank you for understanding. It's just been. . an interesting past few days for me. And don't worry, while I appear to be a bit flaky, I'll let you know flat-out if I lose interest in the Roleplay (or you, but the last one is very hard for anyone to pull off really). It really just has been a hard week with exams coming up, SATs and the usual homework assignments.

Anyway, no worries about my problems, I have no doubt that I'll figure them out in due time.

Was ist loss?

Yes, yes, you're flaky, you've mentioned that many times. I'm fine with it, you're just fine. Granted, faster posting would be nice, but I also don't usually have such an OOC conversation, so I think I'm okay with it. That, and I have a buncha other rps to keep up with, so it's a nice pace. Sorta.

And humans are social creatures, Cynder. You don't hafta figure your stuff out alone. Just consider that, wouldya?

Anyhow.
Must go mow more. I hate yardwork. Makes my nose feel like a trashbin for dust.

Owch, well, as long as you're aware that I'm flaky.

And I know humans are social creatures, but that doesn't necessarily mean I am. If it comes down to it, I have several people to turn to. That includes you. Thanks for your concern, but I can handle these problems or they'll sort themselves out. I have to go with that optimistic mentality after all.

Anyway, good luck with your yardwork.

yardwork sucks. But it is finished now.

My dad is making funny noises at a roadrunner in our yard, hoping for a response.

Roadrunners don't even sound like that, dad.
no.

And yeah, optimism works well. And hey, thanks for including me! I wasn't expecting to be a go-to person so quick, but hey, that's perty nice.

@Cynder
Um...
I know that you've had some stuff going on recently, but uh.

It's getting close to a week after the day that you guaranteed a post, you know? Nearly two weeks since my last post? It does seem an awful like a very definite lack of interest.

I'm failing to see the point of this post since you acknowledge the fact that "I have some stuff going on". I'm a semi-hiatus until June. If you're referring to Guildfall, I just needed to take action as a GM.

So what was the point of this post, exactly?

The point is that you guaranteed me a post. I'm poking you to see if you happen to have anything. Yes, you're flaky, but thirteen days without any hint of a wip post is pushing it a bit- especially so when there's only been three previous posts, two of them being mine. It doesn't really look like--

You know, you're right. You're on hiatus. I'll put this on hold until the tail end of June or something, and I'll stop expecting that post you guaranteed me.

I'll talk to you later.

If you can't be patient or considerate, then we can't be partners. Real life comes first, I said that in my interest check.

Yes, I understand that. I agree totally.

But I have been patient, and I have been considerate. If someone's not all that considerate, it'd be you.

I waited two weeks for a post- and I didn't ask about the post more than four times, tops- and I didn't bug you when you guaranteed me a post by last Sunday. Except you didn't get me a post. You still haven't gotten me a post. If anything, you were very inconsiderate by not even mentioning your lack of post on Sunday, or afterwards. I am actually being quite considerate, given that you gave me your word that you'd have a post. But you didn't. And last Sunday was before you posted a status about your business. And continuing on that, you were also a little inconsiderate by not directly telling me- when I found out that I was likely going to lose the best of my posting ability on Monday, I put up a status, and I started telling everyone I roleplayed with.

I have been patient, and I still am patient. Normally, I'd be bugging someone at least twice a day for a post. I've barely bugged you twice in one week. You have been rather inconsiderate, especially compared with how friendly I've been. I'm not saying that my friendliness puts you in any sort of debt to me, but I'm saying that it'd be nice if someone whom I'm showing interest in and trying to be a friend with would show something back.

My posting is, in a large part, due to annoyance that you've said nothing of your lack of posting. Yes, real life stuff, but sticking a sign out front with "TOO BUSY" and not bothering to tell me, whom you said you considered a friend [of sorts], is a liiittle offending.

I recall reading that a partner should be patient and considerate, yes, but I do not recall reading that a required trait was to either not care at all, or not mind being... used, I suppose. I mean, if you wanna be inconsiderate and call me inconsiderate, when all I am is trying to be considerate, then go ahead. I don't really want to roleplay with someone who's going to be unfair like that, or take out their frustration with a real-life problem with me. And, to be diplomatic, I'm not saying that you are- but I do recognize that it could be a possibility.

I'd rather not have a passive-aggressive partner.

So, if I'm still terribly impatient and inconsiderate by taking the time to politely, if a little passive aggressively (You have annoyed me, after all. It's a little frustrating, see), prove my point and fully and diplomatically explain my side of the situation, then please, go ahead and drop me for being r00d and impatient. I rather enjoyed the one post of yours, and my response to it.

You just admitted to being passive-aggressive yourself while calling me out to it. You're being hypocritical in your own post. Congratulations. That takes effort. And if you're going to be this much of a pissbaby about it, then yes, I'm going to drop it. You know I'm in highschool and have ADD. I had completely forgotten I even promised a post on Sunday, if that's your beef. I didn't forget about needing to post in this Roleplay period, however, and that should be what matters.

So sorry for being an Honors highschool student with exams, ACT and SATs. I wasn't being rude or inconsiderate, I was busy. Not everything has to be yours or anyone else's business. I was getting my facts straight and you need to learn to respect that. Being friendly doesn't give you some immunity. And if anything, you're trying to write your overly clingy behavior as "friendly". Reminding someone to post twice DAILY is not patient at all. The reminding had become nothing more than nagging which in reality, makes Roleplay more like a job than a hobby: that's not what it's supposed to be.

If you don't want passive-aggressive, then I'll be more than glad to be assertive about this situation. Goodbye.
