Current Remember, nobody actually enjoys roleplaying if there isn't at least five shameful fetishes uncovered by the 2nd page.

Somebody stole my mood ring. I don't know how to feel about it.

Let's be honest, it's far more satisfying and challenging to actually imagine what a character looks like than paste a hundred gifs of a celebrity and call it good.

So, a team of players who are good at playing as a team in a team-based game are individually bad players. Seems kind of silly when you put it like that, no?

My goal these days is to have an RP that can actually finish, or the very least, last a few years. I see way too many die on page one to take chances

True fact: sloths make everything better.
Originally Monday. Then Wednesday. Then confirmed Friday, then they ninja'd in a fucking colonoscopy, then they wouldn't let me go after like they said, now it MAY be tomorrow, but chuckledick the doctor I never met says it may be Monday. I am beyond pissed. Three. Fucking. Weeks.
Blerg.

Sorry for the collab hold up, guys. I've had a hellish two days and haven't been allowed to eat since breakfast on Thursday.

I hope to be back in action tonight to some degree.
Dark Souls: the game series where swinging a weapon the size of grandpa's Buick only tickles your enemies.
@MiddleEarthRoze Indeed! There's still quite a few hombres he hasn't quite gotten around to yet.
I may do something similar for Do'Karth later. I'd prefer he talk about his history with someone he trusts first.
I've been trying to do a no-kill playthrough the first time (which I think I messed up), and I am starting to re-think that position because I feel like I would enjoy things more if I could occasionally kill meddlesome shits. I also have a hard time getting the melee combat down.

The assassins that come after you look awesome, though.
It's a post-mission party thing that everyone was super enthusiastic about writing when the Team Turian collab was coming to life, so while it's unorthodox and is NOT going to become something that happens often, the collab was written with the understanding that it may have to have large parts rewritten or changed depending how events leading up to it go and that it probably won't be posted for weeks because of everything else that's going on.

Basically, I am taking it as a fun writing exercise that everyone wanted to work on because it was one of those silly things that was born out of the pad chat and wanting to do something with the characters in a fun, social setting.

We have discovered that there are some complications in doing that, namely that literally anything can happen prior to that scene and change the relationship dynamics between characters and there is no way to know how the plot will progress. However, seeing as it is about as generic of a situation as you can get and is almost certainly going to happen as is, I didn't see a reason why not to let it happen.

That said, let's not let this kind of thing become a regular practice. Even mentioning it in the OOC's caused confusion, but rest assured, this is not going to be a bit of writing that will see the light of day for quite some time and it will likely have to change to reflect in character events. Once again, it pretty much was just a fun writing exercise that people wanted to do because they thought it would be fun to see their characters in that kind of situation.

Rule of thumb, any writing and collabs should only be about moving the plot forward and not for events that may or may not happen. Keep in mind we still have the mission, the post mission supply run, and what happens after is largely dependant on what you guys as players decide to do moving forward with the information and leads that will be popping up.

Hell, for all you guys know, Hellis and I may blow up the ship when the team's away. We're crazy like that.

So, if anyone really wants to write something set far down the line, definitely do so with the acknowledgement it may turn out being entirely hypothetical and may not come to pass because of IC events preceding it.
Yeah I'm kind of lost right now with what to post. I mentioned I'd be open to a collab last night and Derv replied to me about it. Then my power went out and that kicked that idea to the curb. I have it back now but am not sure where to go next.


Nothing is too far ahead at the moment. We can get you into one pretty easy. Is there anyone your character was wanting to interact with?

Also sorry about my lack of being around today, friends. Let's just say the hospital is trying to empty me out so they can look at my insides tomorrow with a camera. It is not as fun as it sounds.
The stealthiest game I own is the Phantom Pain.


This is why I Red Orchestrown you, Tovarich.

I like stealth games. I still need to beat Dishonored but I have a hard time getting into it. Sniper Elite 3 is a hell of a lot of fun. Best way to look at stealth games is like they're big elaborate puzzles.
