[OOC] Intrigue in the Fifth City - A Fallen London RP

[Lady Selune]

Coquettish Watchmaker to catch up with things and hopefully post within the next 24-48 hours, all things willing.

[Sofaking Fancy]

I am so sorry for the delay of my post. I ended up having to go out of town suddenly this weekend, leaving me no time to post. Anyway, I will have time after work today to write something up.

I'm terribly sorry, I have no idea why the month of March has been so hectic.

[Lady Selune]

Alright folks. This will be a terrible post. But I will try my best.

[Gordian Nought]

Awesome sauce, my peeps!

I'm salivating as my eyes feast upon your decorum of words. Mr. Pages is most pleased, @Lady Selune&@Sofaking Fancy.

[shylarah]

I am sick and cannot really brain. Forgive me. X.x should be able to get a post out in the next couple days.

[Hekazu]

I guess we have a miniature epidemic, then.

blows nose

I will see to posting when I'm feeling better just as well. I am glad to hear that you people are still with us despite the elongated and unplanned pseudo-hiatus though!

[shylarah]

@Hekazu A heads up. I've been about, but my muse is being recalcitrant and for some reason this rp just doesn't want to be written. I think Schroedinger may quietly vanish. My sincere apologies, and also to @Templar Knight.

@shylarah

That is sad to hear. Wish you luck in your future endeavours!

On a whole another note, I'm starting to get better. I'll contact the people that had expressed interest before to see if they still would like to join us and begin working on a post soon-ish!

[Mortarion]

So, I've been eyeing up this RP for a while, being a fan of Fallen London and all, and I was wondering if, in light of the player that recently dropped out, there was any space for me to join if that's possible? My apologies for bothering, been a fan of Fallen London for a long while and, well, this is the first RP I've seen on the setting on the site so I'd love to join if it's possible. Once again, my apologies for bothering and thanks in advance.

@Mortarion

Your interest has been noted! I have asked the two people that also had interest at an earlier point but could not quite make it in if they would like to join us around now, so we'll see whether I hear anything of them. Until that's done with, I cannot make any promises, but I will put you on the list of people to contact in the case of players bowing out yet!

@Hekazu

AH, completely understandable, thanks for letting me know and for adding me to the list of people to contact if there's an opening

[Hekazu]

@Mortarion
It looks like you are free to make an application for the RP if you would like, given the absence of any and all other character applications! Only one of them actually responded to me either

I also have seemingly forgotten to tag @Sofaking Fancy and @Templar Knight in my last post. My bad!

Then there's the case of @Gordian Nought. I do know the person is busy with offline things and that his style of writing quite fits the universe we are looking at, but with the level of activity displayed we have one character stuck with them at the time being. If there is no input from the person by the time I next post, I will be commandeering the character for the while to allow @Lady Selune some space to manoeuvre in. And, well, last online 15 days ago doesn't seem particularly good, does it?

[Mortarion]

@Hekazu Ah, thanks for telling me, will get working on my character sheet ASAP!

[Templar Knight]

I'll give a post shortly, but I'll give a little bit more time for others to move first.

[Sofaking Fancy]

I totally missed this, I am terribly sorry. That and this week has been a week from hell. I kept getting my work hours shifted around. It was painful. I got like no sleep, and my brain no work.

That being said, I have tomorrow off. I will sit down and make a reply. I do apologize. I am a garbage person.

@Sofaking Fancy

Facing difficult times and working with them barely makes one a garbage person. And since RPing is but a pastime to us, prioritisation of tasks should be maintained in accordance to that. Of course, I would accept warning beforehand, rather than after the fact, but one cannot always have everything. And even if we are moving a bit slower than anticipated, we are advancing nonetheless. Nothing has been lost. Don't beat yourself over it. :)

@Hekazu

I appreciate it! Sorry, I wish I had had more heads up as well. My schedule kept getting changed after I left my shifts. I work at a hospital, and as such things happen randomly. Usually, my schedule is rather stable, but we had one tech that couldn't show up half the week due to jet lag from Taiwan. Then the other supervisor got sick. Then one tech's car wouldn't start. It was a rather crazy week.

So, Friday night I was quite tired and feeling quite bad about the entire thing. I haven't received in texts, and so I'm thinking next week will flow better. Thank you again! I've been enjoying this RP, it's been quite entertaining and very different from what I usually end up playing.

[Gordian Nought]

Apologies for my absence. My real life has been whelmed as of late. I should have a post this afternoon.

[Mortarion]

@Hekazu My apologies for hte delay with the sheet, I've been super busy with university but I'll get it done either by today or by tomorrow tops. Once again, my apologies for the delay and for the lack of communication on my end.

Looking forward to seeing who else has made it to the Masquerade!
