We're fine for now. I for one would greatly appreciate some NPC support coming up (Yeet's "raid" and the consequences beyond), lest we ourselves would write them with too many biases for (or against) our characters.

Alright, yeah, I'll definitely make sure to do that. In the meantime I'll try to think of some scenarios just in case I need to throw some rocks at you guys.

I think I might try to have another post up on Wednesday, how's everyone else doing?

EDIT: I just want to make it clear that I don't want anyone to feel rushed, I just want to know if we've got any other posts coming up or if anyone is experiencing any problems. Just remember I'm happy to help, as always, so don't be afraid to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns.

I'll be kicking things up a notch in my next post (hopefully), so if anyone is feeling like the pace is too slow then I hope that'll help.
The same goes for the Tarne group, but as you two have got plans I'll try not to get too intrusive without your 'go-ahead'.

Yeet and I agreed to write solo posts for this round. Might be another day or two til mine is fit for submission.

Lowkey empathizing with the GM dilemma of wanting to know where all the players went but also not wanting to look desperate by asking too straightforwardly

Hoo...

Boy do I have a big post for you guys. Probably got a little carried away, if I'm being honest. Not sure how good it is, but... damn I didn't think I'd written so much. But I'm trying a little something new.

This includes some stuff for the Tarne crew. Nothing too important, though, mostly just world building. The most important part is probably the first paragraph, but whether or not your characters are around to learn said information is up to you guys.

Cartelom crew is now moving out, and you can expect all of the player characters to be participating in this expedition. How much of Hannigan's appearance, speech, and briefing you want to write a reaction to is up to you guys.

EDIT: I'm actually just terrible at predicting how big my posts are / are gonna be cause I've mostly been writing from my phone instead of my computer.

It'll be cool as a ripple effect, at the very least. Hear rumors about shit the next day.

I could fit it into one of my early paragraphs (a walk home), though I'm trying to plow through and get the post out, too.

Not as big as I expected but definitely not small. T'was a good read and that's what counts. Who beside the player characters are on the fellowship of Cartelom?

@pugbutter Alright, I understand. Take your time if you need to.

-

@Nerdude Y'know... whoever we damn well please. I'll probably develop loose characters for some of them, but I'm not sure I'm prepared to individualize all 5 or 6 of them.

And thanks.

Am I free to fill one spot with Maarten Beldam or do you want him in the city?

I summoned a wall of text with pretty color coding for speech. Also here's a sheet for the sake of reference for NPC Maarten Beldam.

Alright, cool. Seems like a pretty formidable force... but I suppose we'll just have to see about that, won't we?

@pugbutter Ho mah gawd.

That post got a little darker than I expected and made me a bit uncomfortable.

And it's great. Cities really feel different and I can't wait to see how everyone will interact in the future. Really digging the contrast between Cartelom and Tarne so far. Looking forward to seeing what Theon is up to whenever Yeet has the time.

Maaan this world is shit...

Many thanks. Discomfort was the aim here, and receiving some affirmation that it hit its mark for someone is more than I could have asked. I too am enjoying the contrast between cities as they explore different strata of the survivors' society.

Alright, so, I think I'm going to delay my next post to allow @Ocelot79 and @YeetMeister some time to write theirs (if they plan on making any). I want to make sure nobody gets/feels left out or left behind if I can help it.

The Cartelom crew has been moving forward with little interaction between our characters aside from just recently, and I increased the pace for those of us in that group to reach a point where we could interact. I understand this might have the consequence of feeling rushed or jarring, so I want to take a moment to make sure we're all following along together.

I also know there's not much going on in Tarne at the moment, but it's for that exact reason (and Yeet's work schedule) that I want to make sure that he doesn't feel left out. The same goes for you too, pugbutter, but so far you seem to be doing alright. I also realize that Yeet hasn't been on in a few days so I won't stall the RP if he doesn't seem to be coming back.

Of course, if either of you two don't think you have the time to put up a post then I understand, and if you give the go-ahead then I'll work on getting my next post up in the meantime.

-

@IAmKnight Also, apologies for the delay in checking up on you, but are you still interested? You can still join in at any time if you'd like, as this is semi-sandbox, so if you need more time then you can take it.

I just remembered to check and saw that you said you'd remind yourself, and as it's been quite some time now I was just curious.

I'll be busy working on my own RP if the Tarne situation progresses too quickly, but that outcome doesn't worry me until Yeet logs in.

He and I planned to each do one solo post to introduce our characters' lives outside of their partnership. Now that mine is written I will in fact be waiting on him for the next collab, within reason.
