@Sisyphus

Oh gods... I couldn't think of one for Elain, and I don't think I'll be able to find one for Elian! Why am I fated to forever be tortured by this dilemma? Curse you, Sisyphus! May you be cursed to forever push a rock up a hill until it stays there!

@Sisyphus Well in any case, let's assume that your knowledge of Greek Myths had no standing on my decision to let you in to my rp when you arrived late, shall we? ;P

I don't know - I'm planning for a big part of Arthur's character arc to be 'learning how to have interpersonal relationships', so I think a long-term pen pal situation is a little out of his depth at the moment. :P Maybe they just know each other in a 'social function' kind of way?

@Sisyphus@Tackytaff Well, it's possible that Elian could know either of your characters, given that he's serving the Royal family. A knight and a spy might well work together. And an inventor could be seen in passing.

People are discussing intro posts and I haven't even begun to think about it yet... Should probably get on that.

Just read through Rhys –– maybe they are somewhat familiar with each other, both being from the Royal City? It's okay if not, thought it might be cool. (I want a rooftop chase scene, damn it.) =]

Also, this might have already been asked and I might have missed it, but when will we be starting?

I make music playlists for all of my characters as I'm making them. I won't link all of them, because there's about nineteen, but here's the top three options for Faolán's theme. My music tastes tend towards indie trash, to be honest.

Svavar Knútur - Emotional Anorexic
MisterWives - Coffins
One Two - Bitter and Sick

The war ended a year later and that’s when the taxes grew too much to bare. They had to sell quite a bit of their land, both horses, and all the pigs in order to keep the farm afloat. All of the workers were also let off, since there was no coin to spare for wages. What was left of the farm quickly fell into disrepair as Seamus just couldn’t do it all himself. Food was scares

Nah, but the thing is, the whole rock thing isn't actually a curse, because Sisyphus is still in a sense the master of his own destiny because he is free to choose to push the rock up his hill, and in acknowledging the absurdity of his actions he is able to achieve a higher level of understanding.

One must imagine Sisyphus happy, after all.

@Not FishingShe'd blame Darius's family, the royals, the war, and her parents. But the tax issue has been around since she was like five so she sees it as normal. She's a peasent girl that doesn't know much about government anyway.
