Anyway what do you guys want to do? Alice is going to reveal information that puts Ka'van as the source of danger in the Tower. She's going to remember that, oh yeah, there was weird black magic stuff going on that looks like Ka'van. Or, maybe Ka'van will just admit to it because he is kind of a good guy.

But, yeah, this is the next mini-arc, I think. It's now a New Horizon issue. We gonna collab again like with the Zookeeper?

Explanation: I feel like an outsider in the group, more nuisance than member

I feel as if I don't belong here so I thought it best I no longer clutter up the Discord with babble and discontinue posting solo posts that only break up the flow of those who are actually involved in the RP

It isn't as if I haven't spoken about this outside looking in feeling I've been having and took the lack of any real response as silent agreement with my position.

@Zoey White

Just making sure you got an explanation

Its not as if I haven't voiced my feeling to be an outsider in discord several times over the past two weeks

My first clue was having Sydney forgotten in the storm drains and the closest to an interaction when Alice ordered Syd where to go in the Zookeeper arc

After that I was playing her as knowing how little she meant in the scheme of things by her desertion after battle.

Sowing the Seeds of Doubt
or
That one Arc Where Horizon Starts Doing Some Sketchy Ass Shit


In this essay, I will delve into the foothills that will rise up into a mountain of turmoil within the Tower. The heroes will be faced with a choice: side with the company that houses and provides for them, or side with their friend whose life is little more than fodder to said company. With the resident alien's powers getting out of hand, he proves himself a threat to those around him. Will Horizon ignore his warnings of a demonic take over and place him in the infamous dampening bracelets, or will they believe that he does in fact pose a demonic threat and neutralize in a far more lethal way. Either, everyone's favorite gray guy loses.

Outline:

Ka'van's demon slowly gains control over him through emotional manipulation via his dreams.

Ka'van's dream cause him to accidentally and unknowingly use his powers to destroy section of the tower, injuring Alice.

Alice reports this threat to Horizon and is hospitalized in the infirmary. The teams are notified of their injured teammate.

With everyone bringing in flower and balloons, it's hard to not notice that a certain alien is absent from the scene. Wow, what an asshole.

Someone goes to look for said alien, and finds him missing from his apartment as well, things having been scattered about in an obvious struggle. Oh no, he's been taken.

Upon confronting the Horizon officials, the heroes learn that Ka'van has been taken into custody by their security team and that he's not being cooperative. They admit to trying to force him to where the dampening bracelets, which he is very much against because said bracelets will weaken him to the point that the demon overtakes him and he ascends into his final form. It's p hot.

BTW, most of the Horizon officials think the whole demon thing is a load of BS anyway.

So the heroes start to debate with who is right and who is wrong here. Should Ka'van stop being such a pussy and just wear the damn bracelets? Or should Horizon stop being such pricks and treat the source of the problem, not the symptoms. The source being Ka'van's depression and declining health. Which Horizon can't fix because he's an alien.

So, of course, eventually they put the bracelets on him and, oh no, the demon busts out like a stripper from a cake. Then we slide into the ultimate kaiju demon battle.

@RumikoOhara This sucks because I wrote Eliott into a corner when it comes to Syd ;-; I just got Eliott out of the gym; I know it might be too late, but we can make a collab post if you'd like? ^-^ I planned on having an interaction between the two of them to help with Eliott's personal doubts about people. But I understand if the last straw was already pulled <3 Hope you find a more fitting group otherwise! c:

@Metronome Do we get to see any tentacle dick? :D

Didn't mean to throw a monkey wrench in your gears I've just been feeling like the third wheel; its been a month since the RP began and I have made 10 solo posts since its beginning without a hint that I might not post 10 more solo posts. Its why several times in the Discord I've mentioned I could just as well be posting in the story threads.

Kind of hard not to get the feeling that I was more nuisance than player. Can't say how many times I wondered if my style was up to speed with the rest of the group or if you were all too nice or nonconfrontational to tell me I should just leave.

As for having an RP to post to I have none unless you count my Star Trek RP which I'm lucky to see two posts in a month but that's how PBEMs usually work.

I always get moody this time of year, my dad was killed in June so its a sensitive time for me when I either find something to do or retreat into my shell for a month or two. Hell I feel like I'm just sniveling about life, everyone has shadows that haunt the edge of their lives...I'm nothing specail

@RumikoOhara Just because you think your issues don't matter doesn't mean they don't exist, and I'd say that's a pretty fucking real thing to make you feel upset, or add fuel to the fire at the very least. I don't think anyone could fault you for feeling upset when you're dealing with that kind of grief <3
I know what going solo for that amount of time feels like, and it's ridiculous nobody has properly approached you or Syd about possible interaction. I should've actually said something beforehand.
And while nobody was exactly forward in asking for interaction, you didn't seem willing to ask any individual person if they wanted to do some sort of interaction, either.

I'm not blaming you at all here, but we all sorely lacked the initiative to do something. I'm not upset by the fact I didn't get to explore character development, it just sucks to see a good RPer go due to something so simple :(
Again, I can't stop you if the worst has been done and you want to leave, but if you want to stick around I have a collab with your name on it ;)

I'd answer your posts in Discord but I discontinued my membership so the alarm would no longer be an issue

I have mentioned several times in discord that I wanted to interact and not a peep of response in discord

As I said I began to feel more an intruder than a member of the RP so in the interest of good manners thought it best I cease babbling in the Discord or posting useless activity in the RP thread so that those who were engaged in active interaction and play no longer have my solo posts interrupting the flow.
