[OOC] No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

[Sep]

@boomlover He's an NPC, anyone can control him. That's part of being an NPC, I mean there are exceptions i.e. I don't expect anyone (If no-one applies for the position of XO) to take control of him and start barking orders. NPCs are filler characters, they don't really need controlled. They just get used when needed, if you want to socialize but don't wanna hang out with a player, grab a npc etc.

[The Survivor]

@Sep Hey man, sorry to do this to you, I ain't feeling it anymore and I wanna drop out. You have no shortage of players so I hope this isn't too devastating.

[Sep]

@The Survivor Oh, wow. After a day, you sure? What seems to be the problem? Maybe it is something fixable?

I mean, sorry to see you go. Hopefully one day you'll return.

[The Survivor]

@Sep Yeah, I know, just thinking about it and I wasn't feeling it, it's a crappy thing to do. Nothing to do with you or the rp or anything else, its all great. But I'm just losing interest.

[Sep]

@The Survivor okay then, afraid with Chief Engineer only way to move him aside won't be pleasant (But I can do it, dw about it) which means, if you think you may come back in future let me know and I'll just have him (for an undisclosed period of time) unfit for duty, if you don't think you'll ever return let me know and I can have him, gone gone.

@Sep I guess I'm gonna have to do some edits on Archimedes' post if @The Survivor is leaving.

Also, a bit late, but in terms of what I expect out of this RP: something akin to a sci-fi tv show lasting the proper 5~7 seasons that it needs to conclude two (linked) major arcs, and it's shorter character-development arcs. That's just an analogy, not that this RP needs/will go down that path. I'm expecting characters & players to come in and drop out as we go along, but it'd be great if we could get some closure for each of them.

[Dion]

@vosenedich If you wish, your Archimedes can get acquainted with Min-jae?

[Sep]

@vosenedich the character still exists, though you have my GM permission to NPC him for now. Just don't expect him to stick around for long, on the bright side this lets you have some level of autonomy (heh) for now.

I am having a zero-retcon policy for this RP, he's posted IC to the Chief exists. If you want, to not have met him. That is up to you.

On a note for people eagerly awaiting takeoff, one more to go.

If it comes out late though you'll have to wait one more and till the morning as I am tired.

@Sep My post is almost finished, I'm just waiting on Heat so we can wrap it up.

[vosenedich]

@Sep Well, if I have the go-ahead to NPC him, that'll save me some time, although I'm not sure how well I'll be able to portray him. Also, terrible automaton pun...I approve.

@Buddha Unregistered automaton on the bridge without proper authorization? Admin priviledges? Stressed Head of Engineering? This might work, if you don't mind getting stuck with the annoying robot following Min-Jae around. :P

[FrozenEcstasy]

I should have Gerald finished tonight and then write up a post... Hopefully

[Sep]

@vosenedich @Buddha isn't on the bridge?

Also don't worry about not portraying him properly, with an NPC all he really needs to do is actions and speak, you don't need to get inside his head. Think of him like a character on a game, he just stands there and does stuff and talks but you don't really know what's going on inside his head (unless you're a shrink).

@FrozenEcstasy Look forward to it.

@Sep

I was implying that the Petty Chief might get security to take care of Archimedes, and order Archimedes to stay with them.

The potrayal was referring to was keeping their dialect/vocabulary consistent. But I'll manage, 07

[Sep]

@vosenedich Oh sorry. Apologies for misunderstanding, I'm rather exhausted.

[flightless-angel-castiel]

Just, so I know where we stand @Winter Kitten, @flightless-angel-castiel, @Just The Wind, @sakurasan y'all still with us? I know some of you are still working on your sheets I just wanted to let you know I still love you even though the OOC is moving quickly.

@Sep

Oop, sorry for not getting back sooner. I've been super busy, and have barely started on my CS, so I think it'd be best if I just bailed out now. I don't have enough time to complete it, and I'd rather not rush it.

But, best of luck to everyone rolling with this! Hope it's really successful :]

[Dion]

@vosenedich You lost me there. What is it you'd want Min-jae to do? I'm down for it regardless though.

[Sep]

@flightless-angel-castiel Oh there's no rush, take your time. I was just seeing if you needed a hand or anything, please don't feel like I'm pressuring you.

Just seeing what is going on is all.

[flightless-angel-castiel]

@Sep

Ooh, no, you aren't pressuring me. I just realized I have a lot on my plate and just can't put the dedication into this character/RP that it deserves. I don't wanna half-ass anything, ha! Maybe I'll creep and read through the IC sometimes for my own amusement. But, yeah, sad to drop it, but I won't be able to do anything decent with everything else going on right now.

[Sep]

@flightless-angel-castiel I am sorry to see you go, I was excited about watching someone nerd out over plants.

You are always welcome back.

I guess I will need to limit the number of sceintific problems we come across :P

Anyway, I got a bit of a headache so am turning in early. Goodnight y'all.

[boomlover]

@Sep sleep well my friend. And dream of sweet sweet ic post in the moring.
