Ok, so. Actually sat down and banged out something, Ob's looking it over and may also add on Mirage's bit but as Vo can attest, we kinda screwed up our sleep schedules and boy are we paying for it now. So now waiting on him.

Now, first my apologies for delaying, and I'm gonna give two reasons:
1) new job, which it turns out tends to keep me onsite for far longer than 8 hours because I'm pretty much processing surgery samples. People who schedule at 3:30? I get your samples at 4:15 and end up staying at minimum until 5 or so. Later, if there are a bunch of those people. I'm also still adjusting to chronically waking up early (to the point that I'm drinking Monster daily, when I've never touched energy drinks before). Fun, really.
2) I have almost nothing to go on for writing Dirk and Impmon, or Kate and Guardromon for that matter (albeit less important, though they did need to be addressed a bit). Most of his stuff is still on Ob's inaccessible hard drive, sans for a few scraps which showcase his worse moments and are not particularly good sources of inspiration. It's been over a year since I saw how those two are supposed to be written, for better or for worse, so a huge reason for the delay is I genuinely had no idea what to write and how to get them into the position they had to be. And I couldn't just drop them in because if I could, I'd have a tougher time writing for them later since I get the sense there will be some back and forth here. If Dirk and Impmon seem off, it's because I decided you guys won't really mind as long as they're still recognizably brash and foolhardy, right?

Nah on the counters where I work we give out different butters and marinades for stuff. Herb, salted, pepper & spice and garlic butters. (I think there's another one, not too sure actually) and 5 marinades. Herb I hear goes well with salmon

I always thought Dirk was a slightly less whiny, more dickish version of Tob's character.

I can attest to wrecked sleeping hours (Hello not-OCE-friendly LCS playoff schedule) and I can hardly blame RBY for not knowing how Dirk behaves. XD

Aye 's fair enough. My sleeping schedule's messed up, I work backshifts almost exclusively so I don't sleep until about 2am usually.

Matt made him all "I'm so mysterious and broody guize check out my past and shit you just don't understand" That was the vibe I got initially anyway.

Yeah, though there's still miles between what Ganon intended and what Ganon actually wrote (based on the scraps I have). I could work with that at least, you know. It's generic, but it's character.

Oh definitely, it's the same with my character. I didn't intend for her to be utterly useless :P Now she isn't-ish.

RBY is most likely lurking from the start, but you have no idea how I messed up Zei in my first few posts. I made her look like a mary sue it's not even funny. I was also flip-flopping with her personality because I was a stupid kid at the time.

You think that's bad? This was my first ever female character. I had no fucking idea what to do, and I was a really silly kid.

I think my mind just leapt to copy bits of Mimi from Digimon Adventure :P Damsel in distress and all that. I messed her up but now I'm older and slightly wiser I can fix all that shite. XD

I actually do remember your guys' stuff. And to be fair, at least you two improved and showed this improvement in your execution of posts, on the whole. Just so you know.

It's alright to fuck up if you're actively improving. I mean, I was godawful when I started, shaped up a year in and now I'm not too bad, I think?

Yeah and from what I remember we did improve. I was pretty awful when I started out but then I got better, then I got terrible and then better etc until now when I'm getting better again :P

I think we've all improved to a degree and that was reflected in how the RP went. We have a semblance of a coherent storyline now. XD

You're not wrong, so many don't make it past the first little bit. Very few (excluding D&D campaigns) get to 4 years down the line and still going

Yeah. Don't get me started on mine (RIP Ferrumon and Horsemen).
