In Exile - A Story of Survival - RP

I'll probably only stick to just the one. As a general rule, I never have two characters in a position to share screen time. With VERY limited exceptions. If I ever put the Witcher 3 down, I'll get the sheet drawn up. Have the day off tomorrow, so I oughta have it up by then, Friday night at worst.

In Exile - A Story of Survival - RP

Interesting concept. Not really done a whole lot with the survival style RP, so I'll start noodling around, see what kind of character I can come up with.

Persistent World

As one of the folks that likely got labeled as an inactive, I currently am not invested in EH enough to really care if it stays or goes. Main reason I created a character for it in the first place was I thought it was a cool concept and wanted to check it out.

I do, however, feel like with such a small playerbase in the grand scheme of things, wouldn't be a bad idea to look into downsizing the project. Having spent some time with a group that did dedicated Discord RP, I feel like it might function very well on the Discord server as it's own sub-group of channels or something (or maybe exist as its own server).

Anyways, my 2 cents worth.

Spy Academy: An Espionage Tale

Yeah I think imma wait till some kind of progression post is made, as my last one was left hanging for anyone to respond to, and I don't have enough to make a post more than "Garrett gets dressed" atm.

Spy Academy: An Espionage Tale

Getting home from vacation tonight, will do my best to get a post up some time within the next 24 hours.

Spy Academy: An Espionage Tale

Just FYI folks, vacation starts tomorrow, so I'll post when I can.

Spy Academy: An Espionage Tale

"I second that." Garrett poked his head out from behind the fridge door, before closing it and revealing the apple in his hand. "Always a good idea to get the lay of the land first and foremost."

With the fixings on hand, Garrett knew it was only a matter of time before he was gonna fix up pancakes for the lot of em. He took a bite out of his apple as he watched the other students for a moment, then turned around and began fixing up a pot of Coffee. Lifeblood of the universe, and way cheaper than Starbucks. Once the coffee was started, he turns and leans against the counter, and asked the room at large, "So, how long do yall think it'll be before they send us on an actual mission?"

Garrett had been up since nearly 3. Wasn't his first choice, but his body had spoken. Eight hours of sleep had been gotten, it was time to get up and do things. So naturally the first thing he did was lay in bed. This didn't last long, of course. Once Garrett realized that going back to sleep wouldn't happen anytime soon, he got up, and set about unpacking his things. As he worked, he pondered the future. And really just how well he'd fit in here. He didn't know any language beside his native one, he wasn't a smooth talker, nor was he good with electronics...

He was smart enough that the academics of the school didn't phase him. But actual spy work? Well, perhaps he could still be of some use. After all, who said spies had to be subtle and non-lethal? Either way, he'd make it work. That'd always been what his Grandfather taught him. When you're not sure how to proceed, throw everything you got at the wall, see what sticks. If nothing sticks, find a glue gun. After a while, he heard the sounds of life outside his door. Seems like the others were beginning to wake up. He pulled on his jeans, a pair of socks, his favorite button-up shirt, and finally a light jacket. It was cold this time of year, especially for someone who grew up in the far south like he did. He walked downstairs towards the kitchen, having heard voices alerting him to the presence of other students.

There was a new one present. A girl, one he hadn't seen last night. As well as the Japanese kid and the dutch girl. He raised a hand in greeting as he walked past, heading for the fridge. "Morning folks." Garrett opened the fridge, and started poking around to size up breakfast options. "Don't suppose y'all'd know if they got anything for a decent 'murican breakfast?"

Garrett had turned to look at the newcomer as he walked in. Iosef. That was a Russian name if he'd ever heard one. Of course, Garret could always be wrong about that. He raised a hand in greeting, saying, "Nice to meet you, Iosef. I'm Garrett." He turned his attention back to AJ as she asked him about his home. "Closest city you're likely to have heard of is Atlanta. Otherwise I'm from a small town in the middle-of-nowhere, Georgia."

Garrett looked down at his watch to check the time. A bit past 7 in the evening. Certainly felt later than that. But that was probably the jet-lag talking. Garrett glanced at AJ, and said, "You know, I think I might just eat in my room. If only to save myself the embarrassment of being caught face down in a bowl of oatmeal."

Soon as his bowl was prepared, he grabbed a spoon, and moved to leave for his room. "See you around, AJ."

With that, Garrett took his food up to his room, and locked his door behind him. He sat down at his desk, and pulled his phone out, swiping through all the accumulated notifications that he'd received over the course of the day. Once that was dealt with, he dug into the oatmeal and what remained of his apple. Wasn't long before he was in his PJs and dug into the bed, bags pushed aside to be unpacked the next morning. Welcome home, he thought to himself as he drifted off, hope you can make it work.

Garrett, in the meantime, had been rooting around in cabinets himself, glancing at the other students every once and a while, and ultimately surfaced with an apple in hand. He looked up around the room again to see AJ waving him over holding a box of Oatmeal. "Oatmeal, huh?" He said as he approached. "I feel out of place with just an apple. Though, I do suppose folks eat apples for breakfast, don't they?" Garrett shrugged as if to answer his own question.

Garrett leaned back against the counter. "So....you from around here? England, I mean? You've got the accent but I wasn't sure...ya know, plenty of folks in the states have accents still."
