Asleep? Why would anyone go to sleep? That's about the only thing worse than going to class or wanderimg off alone. There are dozens, if not more, students to meet and interact with. All you have to do is hit any of the common rooms, the gym, the tennis courts, the pool or what have you.

I know what you mean but wouldn't little sleep affect the X-Men's performance. Of course many would be up all night or to the point where they get like an 1-3 hours sleep but they aren't X-Men so they don't need to worry about it. X-Men such Boom-Boom, Cannonball and many others would be burning the midnight oil even though they are rookie X-Men as well. Sleep or not I will push on anyway......... So yeah.

Those who miss sleep all night and those who do sleep just

I guess it is like what side are you on kind of thing.

[Assallya]

It's not a question of whether you need sleep. A singly scene that takes a dozen or more posts only lasts about ten minutes-if that. My thinking is, simply don't advance the time by several hours in your post... or don't go to sleep early. There's tons of stuff to see and do. Everyone always complains about how they want to see more of the mansion in the movies and wouldn't it be great if they had more cameos. You can't do that in a movie due to time constraints but here you have free reign.

Yeah I guess but some people have already wrote there characters to sleep. I may have to throw my second character in to post something or I could post as some of the NPC's which aren't really NPC's for me. To the thinking dome.

[Assallya]

As far as I know nobody has gone to sleep yet... they just stopped posting...

[MistressCyanide]

I am sure Aya and Leon went to sleep and I think John as well. If they have not then I am going a little crazy.

[Assallya]

Hmmm.... Go figure. I can never go to sleep right after work. I'm too keyed up.

Maybe we can just assume the current goings on take place the next morning or something...

[Damo021]

I don't think I technically put Sarina to sleep, Just took her back to her room after most of the day has gone for it to be evening. Some mutants might be different, some stay up longer than others etc... depends on what sort of a day they have had and how they feel. Plus I think some have got confused who is where possibly?

I guess we will have to, I may write a post for the NPC's who are to busy staying up and partying like it is 1964, before they know it the next day is here. No time will be mentioned though..

I know you did not, I only remember the ones who did say something like "They fell asleep as soon as they hit the sack or hit the pillow."

I put my characters to sleep because I did what I wanted to do in the free roam and I remember Mistress saying she wanted to move along to the next arc soon. What better way to do that than go to sleep? Besides it's evening, Aya just returned from an exhausting mission AND had a fight while her electric reserves were almost drained. Plus I'm gonna put Leon in the Danger Room tomorrow, so, even though he IS a night owl, he needs rest. That's why. You can do whatever you want, but as I said. Mistress wanted to move on. It felt only natural to go to sleep so she could initiate a time-skip (plus I thought everyone else was doing that too). Besides, there's only so many people I can interact with. I don't know if you've realized this yet, but I have never read a single X-Men comic in my life. Except for X-23: Innocence Lost and X-23: Target X. But she's my all-time favorite mutant soooo... yeah. Anyways, my point is, all my knowledge comes from extensive reading of the wiki, watching the movies, and watching every X-Men TV show except for the Wolverine anime since I haven't gotten to it yet. I have no clue what the mansion looks like or how certain mutants behave. Besides, I strongly dislike controlling NPCs. I have HUGE problems with personalities other than my own. Especially established characters. Go read Aya's CS and then read how she behaves now. I didn't realize it, but I deviated a LOT. But how she is now is more comfortable, so... oh, well. Any other questions?

At the end of the day I think I am just being impatient because I am so excited for the follow up. Sometimes I wonder if I am the fire and the RP is the fuse as I feel this will blow up in my face if I keep pushing things in a rush of excitement. Though I don't have much else to do RP wise. Also in the end you don't need to read the comics and can be someone who just watched the films and cartoons. As long no one says to me "X-Men: First Class is the best X-Men film ever, it is so accurate and I thought how that guy died was great." I would be like 0.0 though I would not be like "Fuck off" or anything. I myself have been in and started RP's I have no idea about. I actually started a Killzone RP at one point and based my story on the Hellghasts turning on each other while there was a war still going on with the ISA who I think are the villains of the games. I skim the Wiki as well for some things such as the Killzone RP and a few others.

I may play Fire Emblem: Awakening again. Problem is once I do I will be absorbed by it and may not look back her for days or even a week. I have other games in mind but they have the same effect like Timesplitters does.

I hope you don't forget this RP while doing another, this one has such great potential :)

I won't forget and I started it now so there is no going back. See you in a few days maybe........

[LovelyAnastasia]

I put my characters to sleep when I feel like they are just being idle and getting in everyone's way. And personally I love sleep, but sometimes my major requires I do all nighters. A lot. Comics are not easy.

[Zagan]

Im interested in what happens next

Firstly, the Wolverine is my favorite (hot Asian chicks. GOD!! Tao is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo beautiful), First Class was great though. And there are no continuity issues. Why? Simple. Origins, the Trilogy, and The Wolverine are perfectly canonical... in Timeline A. First Class is the start of Timeline B. Wolverine is going to not only time-jump, but go universe hopping.

[Solemn]

I spent hours nitpicking The Wolverine, but settled as it's likely the best Wolverine movie we're gonna get for a long time. It was good, don't get me wrong, but the only things you can compare it to aren't that great either. Origins is the worst movie I've ever seen, subjectively. First Class retconned and fucked with a lot, but Days of Future past is going to retcon the retcons, so...

Yeah, me too. I mean why are we here, what happens when we die? These are the big questions.



If you want to take over the psychic role, Assallya, or both of us just to have more psychics on the team in general, that's cool. Either way is fine.

I think I slit grammar's throat with that post.

You clearly have not seen Epic Movie.

[LovelyAnastasia]

......
I like all of those movies...

[Solemn]

Subjectively.

[Zagan]

actually, there is one glaring issue with the xmen films, a minor thing to be sure, in first class we see a young xavier lose the use of his legs yes?

But in Origins we see an older Xavier (after losing his hair) WALKING out of the helicopter, but i spose it could of been an illusiony thing lol
