@Vicier

It's alright, I always read new posts in the IC so I saw it anyway.

@Pirouette; I understand... it is sad to see you go, but I respect your decision, and as such, I have removed your character from the character tab. Please remember that you are always welcome should you ever wish to return..!

@MiddleEarthRoze; even so, I do apologize... I have fixed it up now..! Heheh..! ^w^

@Vicier

Thanks! Take care!

Okay, uh... to be honest, I think I'm gonna switch to a different character concept. I should hopefully have it up soonish-- 48 hours from now at the latest.

@Vicier

I've found a better theme song for Virgil, would you mind updating the sheet?

Genius Next Door - Regina Spektor

So I've posted for Hanzo and Reinhardt, setting their plots in motion, but I can't really post for Reaper until the Overwatch assignments, as the best way to make some interaction happen would be for the missions to overlap and I also don't feel the current Slice of Life-ish stuff happening fits his character at all. It feels like posts have slowed down because there's really only so many times you can say "good morning", so I'm looking forward to the plot getting going.

@Vicier@Caits
Any word on when we'll get some assignments handed out for the Overwatch agents?

Rather looking forward to the chance to see Ansgar and Reinhardt get to interact, eventually.

Hey hate to say it but I'm dropping, life is just being a pain right now (job, school work, messes to clean, family crud, next semester to worry about, etc) and I need to get my crud together if I ever want to keep up with awesome RPs. Hate to say that, don't want to but don't want to hold people back either. I wish you all luck and perhaps in the future I'll be back. I thank you though for the brief time we spent together and the criticism given to my character when first posted.

Hmm, not entirely sure what to post atm, but I might figure something out soonish. We'll see, right now, its more of him standing around, not doing a whole hell of a lot.

@Argetlam350

I understand exactly how you feel; life has been really hitting me hard lately as well. I'm sad to see you go, but believe me when I say that I'm sure we all understand when life becomes too much. I respect your choice, and as such, I have removed your character from the character tab. Please, just as anyone else, know that you are welcome back at any time should you ever wish to come back. :'3

Will try and get a post up tomorrow.

I'm a little stunned with school right now, will be on break soon.

@MiddleEarthRoze
Hey mate, I'm going to be annoying and ask (since I'm rereading posts at the moment) but you do know that while Diazepam is a medication for anxiety, it is actually a sedative? So if he had had Diazepam in the supposedly thirty hours since he last slept, it would actually put him to sleep?

This is coming from three drug text books as well as experience in practice. Just want to make sure you know this.

If you are looking for something thats more for keeping anxiety stable or other such disorders, I'd be happy to help you there ^.^

@Jacobite
yes that is true with aany medication, however, after thirty hours of no sleep...it would be effectie. I was just pointing out what the drug actully was. I am a nurse, and Iam studying to be a pharmacist, so I have this knowledge and just...can't help but shre

@Jacobite
I didn't say middle earth, I was just asking if you guys were aware that it is a sedative...and trying to find something that might b e a bit better. There is a drug...which I cn't remember off the top of my head, that acts similar without the sedative effect.

And chatting with Vicier, assignments will be handed out in the next couple of postss

@Caits

Cheers for the advice, but I'm good. As you've no doubt noticed, I'm a stickler for realism, especially in terms of medicine. Ergo, anything like that will be researched properly for my posts, including the effects of diazepam and sleep deprivation in the post in question. I'll clear things up for you:

"more for keeping anxiety stable"

Virgil hasn't got Anxiety, so this doesn't apply. As you're probably aware, diazepam (However, I really should change that to benzos, what with the larger amount of drugs under the umbrella of it) can be used for a multitude of issues. The main thing it does (from what I've gathered from research) however, is relax the Central Nervous System - which is where his little leech is sat. Said leech causes problems for Virgil such as seizures, tremors, and high blood pressure; Diazepam targets all of these. Hence his taking of it.

"it would actually put him to sleep?"

I think @Jacobite explained this one nicely (Thank-You!) enough. Effectiveness of drugs differ between people, and of course, tolerance levels. While I haven't specifically outlined that Virgil suffers from chronic insomnia in his CS, what he's probably suffering from in this instance will be Psychophysiological insomnia - when one cannot go to sleep due to a fixation on something. In most cases, the sufferer cannot sleep because they fixate too much on trying to go to sleep, and then worry about it when it doesn't happen. A self-fulfilling prophecy, I suppose - in Virgil's case, he's fixated on his work and a possible euraka moment. The caffeine from his coffee is likely aiding him in staying awake too.

"I didn't say middle earth, I was just asking if you guys were aware"

You did tag me specifically about this query, so... yeah? I don't mind of course, but this was directed at me.

Basically, you likely don't have to worry about the accuracy of my posts. If I don't know something about a drug, or medical condition, then I either research it myself or don't use it at all. If I'm ever stuck in a real rut, I can always ask my Mother. She has got 30 years of nursing behind her belt, and definitely knows her stuff.

I hope that cleared everything up for you! Please let me know if anything I write confuses you in the future. :)

Oh, and also excited for assignments!
