Finished Jack's CS !Can I get to making his RS, or am I being too assuming by thinking he's accepted? @_@

Sixsmith said
Mizuho paired Yuki up with Jack after pairing Yuki up with Alice.I think that's her way of saying that he's accepted. XDSO, FLY YOU FOOL! I WANT TO SEE WHAT HE THINKS OF FLYNN!

Truth.

I still think Jack and Yuki are perfect for each other :P

Also:
ADD YUKI TO RS'S DAMMIT

Insert CS here

Whoa, I wasn't expecting new people o_o but I don't think I see anything wrong with Ingrid so accepted. Thanks for making a commoner!

I should probably put a cap on the number of people allowed in soon though. I think I'll go with two more people max, since a total of three people never really joined. But new characters from already participating members will still be accepted. Sound good peeps?

I was not expecting so many people to join this when I first came up with this

[Ex]

Good with me.

[Sixsmith]

So, we all love conflict, but, I'm sure, to keep things interesting, the plot has to have points where we know what's going to absolutely happen.

There are things, I think, we need to agree on. (Mizuho didn't give me details of her and Ex's devious ploy *sob* even though I'm one of her Co-GMs)

First and foremost, how do we want this to end?

In the most generalized way possible without giving too much info, such as Jacob getting 'fixed' or falling deeper down his rabbit hole. Acacia going past the point of no return or finding that sliver of light. Alice finding something to grasp onto in her shitty world or offing herself because things got too difficult. That's up to us to decide through our character's actions, mindsets, and relationships. What I want to know is if everyone wants a happy ending or a bad one—in the most generalized term. We're looking at the big picture, in that do we want the majority of the characters to find happiness and 'victory' or do we want the majority of our characters to plummet and fall?

This may not be my place to decide and you all might just want to toss it up in the air and give no fucks (in the best way possible) as to how the story ends. Leave it up to fate to decide. I'm asking because I'm sure our dear GM would love an idea of how to move the plot forward without getting it stuck anywhere and I'd like to help her do that.

I think it works either way, to be honest, whether we want to decide right now what happens in the end, or just let it go (LET IT GOOO. I AM ONE WITH THE WIND AND SKYYYYY and I won two Oscars). Ex, Lia, Dread, and I have had our fair share of plot building thickness and setting solid points in which our story can veer towards in case things get... too crazy. Things did kinda get too crazy, from time to time...

I'm throwing this out there and not just mumbling over PMs with Mizuho because I enjoy, as a player, feeling like I'm really contributing to building the world and the relationships and the plot. I'm assuming you all like that too, but I could be mistaken (DAMN YOU SHEEPLES). I, personally, think it's good to get EVERYONE involved because that keeps the interest at a high and gives people something to do and look forward to. That's my two-cents, there and I'm sure there are counter arguments to that and stuff.

And to get you guys thinking here's a rhetorical question (I guess you can answer it, but I don't think you should? Not heeere, at least): How do you want your characters to turn out in this? As in, what's their end point at the end of this RP?

I think it's a good idea to set goals for ourselves and our characters, to keep our eyes on something (and to keep us interested and moving). I think it'll help develop them better, as well, though I'm sure Ex has his own plans and ideas on this 'cause he's a butt. Writing stuff like this down can also help ingrain it into your thoughts and keep your characters dynamic.

*I hope these thoughts and ideas are gooooood and not just me raaambliiing. Oh my GOOOOOOOOOD*

Ex and I have a devious ploy?

Don't deny it, you butts. I'm watching you two.

This is news to me!

Also, going off of what my lovely co-GM said earlier, you don't necessarily HAVE to know where your character is going, but if you want to discuss it with someone, I'll definitely be willing to help out, and I'm sure many of our other participants will be willing to as well.

[MULTI_MEDIA_MAN]

Jacob can go anywhere: he's at a hinging point. He could end up doing just fine, continuing on the path to recovery, or he could end up relapsing and going into a downward spiral.

[Bird]

I'm not sure where I want my characters to go. I'll have to think about it a little.

[Ex]

I have an idea of where I would like Eliza to go. I outlined it in her bio.

I don't know about any devious plan, though.

[Lilacs]

Ex said

See, Hae? You're just being paranoid.

Mizuho said

But I know Ex. Am I really being paranoid? Am I really?

I know where I want Flynn and Saul to go, besides into each other's arms. But, I'm iffy with Hayden on that one.

[Bird]

But I'm totally coming up with a devious plot, so maybe that's what's setting off your Spidy Senses, Six.

[MULTI_MEDIA_MAN]

It better not have anything to do with Jacob...he's involved in enough crap as it is with Six gunning for me and a pot brownie under his belt.

[Bird]

Lol, fine.

Okay, the one about Ex is valid. But I'm included in this too, and I don't tink I give you cause to be paranoid...

D: Brayden better happen, because Brenden was literally made for Hayden.

Well, you kinda did make him specifically for Hayden. Like... that was his one purpose in the other RP. @_@ But that was only because of how the RP was centered around the Herrings in particular and didn't necessarily have room for any outside sources.

Unless someone decides they really, really want their character to fall in love with Flynn, I'm making Flynn/Saul a thing. Just because I've thought over it so hard and think it'd be a good idea. ._.

[MULTI_MEDIA_MAN]

I'll pass on the Flynn love. Jacob might get close to him though, if Saul and Flynn become an item.

I'm intending to make that a big surprise for people/characters.

It's obvious Saul has at least an inkling of a thing for Flynn, but Flynn has too many walls in place to reciprocate any feelings that wouldn't result in a one-night stand. So, depending on how perceptive Jacob is, he may or may not get close to Flynn to become comfortable enough to confide in him. :(

Writing Romance is a lot easier when you have a solid grasp on how you plan to take things, though it has its downsides, such as the spontaneity of two RPers mushing up their characters. But I think we all know that the latter happens too quickly for anyone to ever comprehend or of ever being wholly realistic.

Maybe. We have talking to do, btw. Jacob has already confided about most his past (including the secret summer event) in Saul, which might change the way he thinks of him.
