Watermelon, you do not understand. Me having such a strong character, I needed a limit. This is his limit, he's not supposed to be an easy character to work with. Riley does not have a lot of control over Malice, and Malice hates everything. He's hard to deal with because he has to be, not because I enjoy that.

Making him hard to deal with in the context of the story has the side effect of making him hard to deal with when you're trying to write. It was just some decisions your character has made that have been kind of annoying. For example, earlier we've agreed to try to get big blue out of the pizzaria but Malice immediately tried to slow down the plot by trying to throw him right back in. I'm not angry at you or anything, I understand what you're going for. I just think that you need to try to find a balance between making him hard for our characters to work around while also not making it hard for the real us to write around.

At least you need to let us know in the OOC when your character is about to do something like throwing another player's character, because even though they can make it not happen in IC it's still a pain in the butt to write in that instance if they want to do something else instead.

To be honest Bored your character is a bit hard to RP with. Having irrational and unpredictable characters on the side of good can work, but sometimes they can be a bit awkward for other players to work with. This is one of those times. Immediately rushing to grab Music's character kind of broke up the flow a little bit.

Pyro I think you should have the antagonist make the first attack. It's probably easier that way.

Resiak mistook Music's character as a robot in their post.

~ Welcome to Smile Asylum ~ - Home of the Magically Insane!

Barry with food in hand made his way to the outside area to eat. Plain ole bread for today. Most would call this bland, but Barry hardly even acknowledged the taste. After spending so long eating the same things day in and day out to survive flavor you either learned to ignore the flavors or you starved. He sat in his usual eating spot with a nice view of the sky.It was a quiet corner most inmates didn't frequent. At the corner of his eye he spotted a bus. Did this day come around again already? A few years ago it seemed uncommon for new people to arrive, but lately it's been happening more and more. Some would begin to wonder if this meant that the world was shifting, and more and more people were loosing their sanity. But not to Barry. The prison was his world, and as far as he could be concerned the outside didn't exist. He sat on the ground and continued eating his bread, enjoying the breeze and the blueness of the sky.

That was until a fiery display interrupted his peaceful meal. He looked over to where several other inmates were stood, and as expected it was Sebastion who was behind this. Sebastion wasn't too bad of an inmate to interact with on most occasions, but Barry found his powers obnoxious. They were bright and distracting. Often the child would toy around with his flames and do very silly things. Barry wasn't impressed by the display and did his best to ignore. Another thing caught Barry's attention, but this time through his ears. He glanced back at the bus once again to notice a girl. Followed by maniacal laughter, though in the asylum's case maniacal laughter is the only laughter. Many asylum inmates hallucinated, but she hallucinated and she was loud. Barry didn't think they would get along if she was like this all of the time. Just another of the many inmates he would avoid. Barry continued munching on his loaf, oblivious to the commotion by the buses.

Rumble heard an unfamiliar voice coming from his blind spot, and when he turned around nothing was there.. including Violet. This was distressing as he had no idea where the girl had gone. Unfortunately there was nothing to be done about it now. The tall blue man had appeared, and it looked like Rumble was on his own. That was until he heard something land on top of his mech. It seemed like an odd looking girl.. seemingly human, but not quite. She spoke to him before hopping off of his machine.

"Long story short? This guy threatened a bunch of innocent civilians in a pizza parlor before smashing the place up. He doesn't seem like a bad guy, maybe a bit misunderstood, but he's too dangerous to simply let him walk through the city taking what he wants. He seems to be working for someone else, and views them as much more important then any of the people he's terrorizing." Rumble said to the odd girl. Despite the opponent he was standing down he thought it would be a nice idea to introduce himself.
"By the way my name is Rumble." The windshield was lifted up and Rumble offered his small hand to the girl standing by his side. "I usually have a whole performance I do when I introduce myself but under the circumstances it can wait till after we kick this guy's butt. What's your name?"

I don't mean to be nit-picky Bodoe, but it seems kind of strange that someone can have bad depth perception, yet be an expert archer at the same time. Archery seems to be something that would require excellent depth perception would it not?
