[quote=@shylarah] [@MorningStar1399] what no, back up. First off, you can have two chars with a few things in common and they can be, as people, vastly different. Alys would never call anyone by a pet name, and she's not a social animal, for example. The fun is in seeing how similar things manifest in different ways. Why would this be an issue? Secondly I'm a newcomer to this setting; Alys is my char from Fallen London changed to fit. If anything, I'm the one that should be redoing not to duplicate, not you! And I don't see why either of us should have to. Please, please. Don't take my commentary as a reason to feel badly about Alexander. I like him. I want to get to know him. I am more than happy to work with rewording the intro so as to be less specific. You could put a trigger warning above the category for biography, or even nest a second hider. Either would work. And please don't go away we've only just met. =/ I am socially inept but 99% of the time I just wanna have fun with everyone. [/quote] I am also not the best socially (pretty sure I've got some undiagnosed stuff because I lie when I don't trust a person well enough, plus most of the tests are bubble fills and they aren't specific enough because while things are black and white to me there are some things that I just can't make black and white), and I don't get sarcasm too well even off the internet, so...I'm a tiny bit screwed regardless. Anyway, in the new format I've got two trigger warnings and honestly, if someone reads and gets triggered at that point, it's not my fault because I did my warnings, and at some point you have to become accountable for yourself and your own actions. Says the person who didn't realize she had triggers until she ended up triggered by something, and she's not even sure what her triggers are. I spoke briefly with ayz and maybe there is a place for Alex, I don't really see it, but like I told her I could just be superimposing my own lack of ability to see where I fit in and thus I can't see how he fits because it's not quite obvious enough for me or perhaps since I created him it's too complicated even for me, I have no idea. this is so jumbled and out of order but whatever I don't have the energy to reorder it.
