Sounds good to me, since this conversation is pretty mundane. The sooner we get to Jeremy being attacked, the better in my opinion. Skip away to once they finish eating.

Alright now I can actually blame Fallout 4 this time, got it last Friday and it basically became my weekend. I should show you some screenshots later, especially at least show you one of my favorite guns which is a highly customized hunting rife.

Also during this time I wasn't sure how I wanted to continue things, but I thought I over and have a good idea how I want to write it.

Again, Fallout 4 is probably one of the best excuses you can give, lol. I'd enjoy some screenshots tbh, as I'm still waiting on a replacement power supply for my PC. x_x

Also, that's fine. Hope to hear from you soon.

Okay, back to me posting on a regular basis, apologizes for taking nearly a week to continue. Pretty sure I got fallout of my system... sort of, and I was a little busy otherwise.

Anyway excuses aside I got a rough plan on what we can do next, I would like to get right into some good action with Jeremy getting hunted down, although for that to happen right now in the RP feels too soon. So my thinking is we go for an extended time skip of say a month or two, we won't miss out much on stuff to write because during this time I imagine Rena and Jeremy would be doing more things like the cafe, and to be honest it'll get very boring if we write out every "date." So just them hanging out, or getting food. Also perhaps something more on Jeremy's speed like them gaming together, say maybe playing Left 4 Dead or something else that's multiplayer.

This way when the shit hits the fan it really wouldn't be odd to Rena to stick with Jeremy, despite how friendly she's meant to be I don't see her 100% staying with a stranger, but a dear friend is a whole another story.

What do you think?

I agree completely; when I said "the sooner the better," I didn't mean in the timeline of the RP itself lol. Sorry if that was misleading.

Skips will be necessary, I guarantee it. Though, maybe we could do some of Rena trying to get Jeremy out of his comfort zone instead? Bonding with the video games is important I agree, but it would still be nice to see Jeremy get some growth & development as well and we'd still be able to get them to bond in that regard.

Also, it may take me a bit to reply. I've recently gotten pretty swamped.

Yeah Rena could probably just drag him around all the time, and just generally always be around bugging him. Guess if you want Jeremy to be pushed she'll go for dating sort of locations, like "Hey we're dating but not really." *Insert laughing Rena*

By the way ever watched unsubbed anime? It's weird I can't understand what's happening but I still understand exactly what's happening all at once. Just a random thing I wanted to mention.

If I have, it was probably by mistake ahah. Nah, I just stick to subs whenever I watch it.

Btw, I'm probably going to have to wait until tonight to come up with a reply. Cleaning up the house and getting ready to move today, and I won't have my laptop or phone with me.

Post will roll out in a few hours, if not then it'll probably be the first thing I do tomorrow.

Anyway if it's fine with you, I'll proceed with the time skip in this next post, I'm thinking just a month. During that month basically everything I talked about will happen, they'll also have exchanged any kind of contact information by that point, probably something like phone numbers for texting.

I'll be opening it up on a Friday afternoon, classes are done, and we'll come in right when they're meeting up at the library. Any objections, questions, or just anything else to add?

Nah, that's all perfectly fine. Is that when you'd want the attack to start, or just a different kind of date?

Feel free to get them started whenever, after all that's part of the reason why we're doing this skip in the first place, right? Anyway getting to work now.

Mhmm, that's right. I might start it a couple posts from now.

The post will have to come up tomorrow, though. I'm tired and I had a lot of work to do today <_>

Huh? Is that a picture in the middle of your post? I can't see it, the image itself looks like it's missing.

Huh, oops. Yeah, it's an image. I rehosted it, but have the link if you still can't see it.

Is she going to confess to him at her house? Because I had an idea regarding that. Jeremy decides to show her his magic and explain his situation to show his trust and reciprocal feelings, and that would be what attracts the people who are after him.

Na, it's still pretty soon for that. Yes... I'd guess Jeremy is getting passed the "Just friends" phase, but only barely. Once the attacks start, well you how it'll go with the danger and adrenaline, things would start changing rapidly. At least that's my current thinking, it is a bit cliche to be fair.

Hmm. I wonder if we should have made the skip longer, then... I was just going to have the attacker make Rena choose between leaving Jeremy behind or sticking with him, and it's because of who the attacker is that I honestly can't see her sticking around for him unless she saw him as way more than a friend.

Well, personally I'd also rather the build up towards a confession be fairly slow, like it wouldn't be so much as chronological timing rather than the actual pacing of the RP. That said you don't have to change anything per say, it's gonna be a complicated situation no matter what from the sounds of it, and I'm sure the circumstances in someway would allow Rena to side with Jeremy regardless. Now if you still think there will be a problem then we can plan it out now before writing ourselves into a corner.

Well, Rena is pretty spontaneous... though believe me, I agree as much as you do. A relationship isn't something I'd like to rush either, I just thought that Jeremy wouldn't have the courage to show his magic to anyone he didn't trust completely.

I can still make it work, though. He's become somewhat of a risk taker now, and it's not like he's suspicious of her or anything either.

Ohh, hey what about accidental magic use? I have no idea how you set up magic to work, but I imagine Jeremy doesn't have the greatest control over his magic due to lack of practice since he can't use it ever, unless he'll be found otherwise. Throw in a emotionally high moment and that could be a combination for a random burst of magic, as for that "emotional high"... well I got ideas, heh, and you can guess what that could be; you know Jeremy gets to be alone with Rena in her room and all that.

Ooooooh. I'm at least willing to hear you out on this one, if you think Rena could handle the ensuing shock of "holyshitit'smagic"

Go ahead and post for now, as I'm sure something's bound to happen. We'll take it as it comes and see what happens.
