@Letter Bee

I mean, there's been like three additional people popping in to show interest.

The issue is getting anyone to actually post sheets, as opposed to just fantasize about the setting, get bored and forget about/bail on the RP.


Yes. That is another thing that disheartens me.

Well, I suppose you could clear something up for me then.
Is the Heavy slot open, or are you holding hope for the one who made a heavy NC to make a character?

At this point, it's probably a safe assumption that it's first-come first-served. That or anything older than a week is ignorable.

Dunno if y'all are still accepting, but I'd like to throw my hat into this ring. Even threw together a CS.

@Nerdy Reference, Wouldn't her emotionlessness deny her valuable character interaction and development, though?

I'm angling more for the drama and tension of her old squad coming for her. Leave her stuck between keeping her word to a merc outfit that's kept her relatively safe, even if they didn't know about it, and saving her own neck. I tend to think that, lacking the usual options for bonding, she'd come to recognize an effective team's utility and stand with them even if only for purely practical reasons.

Maybe her old squad would opt to try and buy off her so-called allies, maybe the latest job is a setup and the team would have to fight their way out of an ambush, maybe the other mercs would get tired of the constant threat of corp hit-teams and make some kind of move.

Personally, I see plenty of possibilities.

Sorry for the delay, but while I see your point, there'd be long (in IRL days) periods where there'd be no battles and more character interaction. Sort of a breather, if you will. Would you be okay with having little to do in said 'breather periods'?

I think it'd be interesting to watch Olivia get dragged into social situations. She'd have to at least put on a show of caring if she wants a bunch of people with no reason to care if she lives or dies to risk their lives for her. Like I said, she understands the concept of emotions, even if she can't feel them.

I admit, this is going to be an awkward fit, and that's kinda the point.

Then it seems my objections are scrapped. Accepted, but note that there will only be a game if we can get 5 CSes within the next few days or so; this game has been in limbo long enough.

Hell, I'm just glad to get over my writer's block and throw something together. Far as I'm concerned, I've come out ahead.
