[OOC] The Elder Scrolls: Swords & Septims

<Snipped quote by Dervish>
You and I have not seen the same collabs then.

@Inkarnate

Fruits of Contention's been going on North of 2 years, as has Mass Effect: Borealis. Both games are very collab intensive and are pretty much the reasons I am pro-collab.

@Dervish

You have a great (and consistent) group though, I don't think that's the average state of affairs for collabs. I once had a dude (in advanced) change tense and point of view in the same collaboration.

[DearTrickster]

My friend Applo and I write quite a few collabs together for other rps. Basically we put down what we want and then look over to see for repetitions, grammar, typos, as well as the flow so it reads like a story, sometimes breaking our own paragraphs to add in reactions or dialogue where it seems natural.

I personally find it better than solo posts at certain times because otherwise it seems repetitive when someone is simply reiterating what another person may have already posted.

^_^' Sorry if it seems like I'm butting in! Just thought I'd add something seeing I only recently started writing collabs this year.

@Greenie

It's nice when you're able to decide with whom you're writing with what the main goal of the collab will be whether that's sharing some new information or completing an action. Keeping a focus for both characters. I agree with you though Greenie~ in a conversation of solo posts it's difficult to keep a decent length without relying on some repetition to do the thing.

@DearTrickster

Sometimes length isn't all that important for a post to be compelling.

@Inkarnate

Certainly, but you don't want a post to be two lines of dialogue reply either :P. Exaggerating of course.

Alright I'm going to send PM to @Kassarock & @Hekazu this evening when I can pull away from what I'm doing and see what we can start working on together :)

Really, really excited to see what you all get written for this 'intro' section - and even more so I'm excited to see what everyone's character thinks about Raelynn, and quite pumped to share her inner thoughts on all of you too ;)

We got this! :)

[mickilennial]

I'll also be working on a post. If anyone wants to invite me to a collab I'll try to contribute to that instead, however.

[Dervish]

If someone wants to say hi to Sora, I am also down!

[Hekazu]

I think Lord Vensor might try striking up a conversation about Raelynn's (@Stormflyx) attire and/or well kept skin. She doesn't really look like someone from adventuring life you know? With Skall (@Kassarock) I think the warrior is more likely to note Vensor's cloak than it would be for the Lord to remember him from the war. This all depends on how soon posts are coming out though, since I'll need to adapt to any that sneak in before mine.

@Dervish

It makes sense for Hector to reply to Sora's question (and we haven't written enough collabs lately yet ). @Inkarnate, want to join us?

[Dervish]

@Hank Let's make it happen. Should we make a gdoc or stick to PMs?

[Hank]

PMs work for me. I'll start and hit you two up, hopefully later today.

[Kassarock]

@Hekazu@Stormflyx Right got an intro post up, lemme know if I'm treading on toes or you want something changing.

[mickilennial]

Hoo boy.

@Kassarock

I love that first post! I was honestly going to write about how Skall was talking with food still in his teeth haha

[mickilennial]

This collab between me Hank and Dervs is pretty.... catty.

[Kassarock]

@Hank Y'know I've only just realised your avatar is Sotha Sil

[Hank]

Pretty cool, eh? I found it somewhere on a long trawl through Google Images with various detours via "related images" and the like.

[spicykvnt]

First post donezo! I hope I haven't written too harshly on Skall, but it's all merely Raelynn's perception of him and I wanted to really view him through her eyes. If anything is too much give me a poke ^.^

[Kassarock]

@Stormflyx Hahaha, no, its absolutely perfect!
