[OOC] The Rebel Vampire

[TShara]

So, I have more I could write, but I wanted to give Alexi the chance to actually say something to Erik's little speech. That's why I don't like long posts sometimes, because they often cut down on interaction. If you want me to go on, then I will edit in the rest. If you just want Alexi to say something short, you could also tell me what it is and I'll just edit it in and finish it that way.

[PopeAlessandros]

I fully support short posts when warranted, and with one of my partners I've contacted them through skype to work out scenes that require short posts. Your last post is about 2-3x as long as my bare minimum I ask for out of my partners, and very good by the way, which is why I told you at the beginning that I do not require my partners to match me paragraph for paragraph. I ask them to do what feels right, as long as I have 6 or more sentences to work with so I myself can reply with more than a few lines. Descriptions of surrounding, body movement, facial expressions, internal thought. All of these, put into a post, make even a single line delivered by a single character take up more than enough space to keep me from headdesking, y'know? (Sorry for preaching, it's a habit of mind, though I'm sure you've noticed :P) I've written short posts too, here and there, when scenes like this come up. I can even link you directly to some if you don't believe me :P

In other words, I agree, sometimes short posts are what is needed :P However I don't let that diminish my love for long integral posts :P *Teases you*

[TShara]

Alright. Well, have fun with Erik's "trusting" death threats then. :-P

[PopeAlessandros]

*Grin*

[TShara]

Oh, and thanks for complimenting my post. That made me feel very warm and fuzzy. :-)

I seriously hope you don't find Erik too mean... I get that Alexi is trustworthy, but he doesn't totally understand that yet.

[PopeAlessandros]

I give complements where complements are due :P

No, no, he's as he is, because that how he is, and I wouldn't have him any other way :P

[TShara]

Alexi's... not making a ton of sense. Very nice touch to the point that his body is sort of shutting down at the moment. I think it might be finally coming through to Erik just how bad off he is right now... :-)

[PopeAlessandros]

When has Alexi ever made sense? *Grin* Besides *Shrug* He makes sense to me :P

[TShara]

See, I just took it as intentional because he was falling into unconsciousness lol.

My gaming computer started blue screening and now it won't start... I'm rather afraid. I'm also too tired to mess with fixing it at the moment.

I'll try and get you a reply before I fall asleep though.

[PopeAlessandros]

Heh, you mean unintentional, right?

I wish you luck with your computer. I myself have burnt out two screens in less than a month. they were old to begin with, but. . . . . .I can't use my second computer without a screen for it t'know? Anyways, I will pray for you! And your comp. Try cooling it more. . . .I find some blue screening happens to me in the summer 'cause of da heat.

Take you time. Don't force yerself :P

[TShara]

No, I meant intentional on your part to show his state... :-)

Funny thing is, that's the first thing I thought of, but cool air is coming out of it... at least out of the front. I guess I need to check the sides and back, but it seems like heat might not be the problem. In any case, I just don't feel like messing with it right now.

I love how Erik is constantly just furious, righteously angry, downright threatening to kill Alexi... and Alexi's just like... "He's perfect for this. His passion is so admirable..." *bliss, admiration, happiness* Hello! A known terrorist just threatened to kill you... you aren't the least bit... even nervous?! lol

[PopeAlessandros]

Yeah, I guess that could have been part of my thinking when typing up the post :P

Hmm. . . .I know dist and hair can be issues too. . . . .

And, yush, Alexi's perfectly fine with it all. Even in his right mind, he would be just as perfectly at ease and happy :P

[TShara]

It was cleaned of ash and soot by the restoration company only a few weeks ago. That would have gotten dust and all too. That's why it's so weird. After I thoroughly check heat, I'm going to see if maybe it's a software problem. I can also check and run it without my graphics card, just to see if maybe that's causing at least a part of the problem. Worst case, I'll ask my boyfriend about it. He has his Master's in Computer Science and literally started programming before I was born. So, he might be able to give me some more ideas if I run out of guesses myself.

Yay! Finished.

[PopeAlessandros]

Good luck! I am to bed, back in about 5 hours. I have 2 more replies before you, but will read before going to sleeps. See you in a while!

[TShara]

Ahahaha, poor Mois. I forgot about him.

A knight? That's sweet... I hope he can eventually come to respect Alexi as much as Alexi respects him. Although then things might get a little too mushy. :-P

[PopeAlessandros]

*Giggles* Who knows. . . . .*Looks at plan*. . . . .. Who knows :P

[TShara]

Lol. You seriously have everything worked out? Even Erik's reactions?

[PopeAlessandros]

Oh, of course not! That would be no fun! Just. . . . .Looking at the plan. . . .And running scenarios. You actually will decide all on your own the course of the rest of the RP with one little decision however, and that will determine if there will even be the chance for things to get mushy *Grins* *Giggles* *Rolls around*

[TShara]

Lol, well, I'll tell you this, Alexi *cough* I mean Pope :-P ... you certainly know how to keep me intrigued.

Oh, tomorrow morning I'm going on a mini-vacation with my best friend from high school and my grandmother. I don't know if I'll have internet or not really. Depends on if it's free at the hotel. I'm planning on loading some posts on my phone so I can work on replies in the car or something, but I don't know if I'll be able to send, or even how much time I'll really have.

I ran some compressed air on my computer and got it to the stage of trying to fix itself... My Linux install seemed to boot okay as well. The problem is that I need Windows. My gaming machine is really the only one that uses Windows, so it basically serves all the functions that I can't get to work on Ubuntu.

[PopeAlessandros]

I am glad I can keep your interest *Grin* Don't worry about posting, I can wait, I am patient, and I wouldn't want you to have to do anything less than your best whether it be a time restriction, the restrictions of using a phone, or the distractions of RL keeping you from focusing. So, enjoy your vacation, and only post if you really feel you have time :P

I use windows because I am comfortable with it :P The only reason I recognize either of those other things is because my roommate uses them :P
