[OOC] Jewel of the Skies

[deia876lat]

Loved that reply. I love the depth you put into Arn...now I have to ponder on my reply.

[Omni5876]

Don't really know what you mean but I think Arn is just really almost a true neutral or Lawful neutral character. Of course, depending on what happens to Eilis, he might be pushed over to the Lawful Evil side lol.

So believe it or not, my secondary story line falls really well into what you have provided already. I almost want to discuss it with you so you don't think I am just copying you but it is funny how similar or logical it seems. There may be another reason why Arn and Eilis are so connected lol.

[deia876lat]

I meant that I love the internal view we get from Arn and I really like your posts.

As for Eilis, well her fate is partially in your hands so it depends what your choices will be.

I will be all ears for your second storyline when you're ready of course.

[deia876lat]

Scylla might be a crazy witch, she ain't stupid and try you out.

[Omni5876]

As for Eilis, well her fate is partially in your hands so it depends what your choices will be.

@deia876lat

lol I feel like that meme where the guy is sweating bullets lol. NO pressure.

I mean dont get me wrong I totally appreciate the choices matter sort of play but I just hope I dont kill Poor Eilis lol.

also, do you feel that if we added more people to this RP it would mess with the play? I am not suggesting we recruit I am merely stating that your story deserves more audience and that if you were thinking of adding more people I would not have any objections.

to be fair though, I kinda like Eilis all to myself lol.

[deia876lat]

The thing is and this is what I find, whilst I can and have done writing rp's with groups of people, there will always be certain characters you just are better able to work with.
Others might not get the amount of depth or 'more content' that those you click with might have.
That said, I don't mind having more people, should you wish to bring someone in, but I myself wasn't particularly thinking of it. I kind of gotten used to us three doing Broken Skies, which now had become the both of us.

Oh and don't worry too much about Eilis, while I enjoy throwing her around like a little ragdoll and tell you her death is imminent, I still need her alive, unless you're going to go rogue on me and suddenly reveal that Arn was an evil overlord all this time, she isn't going anywhere.
Arn's stuck with her.

[deia876lat]

I'll be posting tomorrow

@deia876lat

As I stated, I am more than happy on it just being us. I enjoy your post crafting and I enjoy our rhythm. I kind of just wanted to put it out there that in the even you felt we needed fresh blood I would be ok. As it stands, I think any more people might feel like third wheel.

@deia876lat

lol, plot twist anyone? buuuuuut you may not be too far off. lol. I really have to work on the secondary story plot. I just forget cus I am enjoying focusing on the two unfortunates.

Man the old venray dude is salty huh? dang Scyllia cut him deep lol. I see a foreshadowing for poor Arn lol.

[deia876lat]

Finally I am back! Thank goodness...from now on I'll be able to post more regularly again.

[Omni5876]

So I know I did not advance the story much and I know I am fixated in the whole Thread and connection bit but I feel like this would actually be a way for Arn to even attempt to have hope in helping Eilis. I am not sure what you have in store for her and I am not going to say that Arn will succeed but I feel that it should at least give him some sort of focus other than just body guarding you know.

Also, I figured I needed you to set the next scene lol. I am not trying to be lazy but I was not sure what I could thrown in there. I feel like Arn would not bombard her with questions as she already will probably experience that in the morning.

Like always, I appreciate direction and advice. I dont want you to feel like you are responsible for guiding the story unless you want to be. I am good with being the puppet too lol.

[deia876lat]

I don't mind after all the story is rather flexable outside of Eilis and Tourmaline & the Sorcerer King connection though it might not seem to be.
Also I am soooo glad to be back finally. I felt so uneasy not writing and so guilty 'in making you wait' eventhough I had little choice in the matter.
I'll post the next day today and with it unfold some of the direction I want this story to take, without spoiling too much I am planning on a little quest/roadtrip.
Maybe we might dive into more of Arn's backstory or find Toby and the others as we'll be moving and could possibly have to come close to the frontline and the fighting.

[Omni5876]

@deia876lat

You dont have to worry about making me wait. I mean, it kinda slows the creative juices and I have to make sure I remember where we are in the story but that is about it. In truth, it only makes me nervous because I need to get back into character and remember where I want to go lol.

Yeah, I have to delve more into Arn's back story. I will do that sooner or later with the other story line. I hope that it meets your expectations and it is interesting and thought out.

I look forward to your post.

[deia876lat]

I know I am dreadfully overdue and I want to apologise to you for that.
I should have at least send you a message.
But I needed some time to rethink my plot and had to throw out certain outcomes. Whilst you might not even noticed it, it just didn't sit right with me and I didn't want to go too cliche which I believe it would have gone into. Also the post needed to retell Eilis's past I thought of posting that first before Arn is going to meet up what lies within Eilis.
So we can still play out Arn's connecting to the Eilis's during the night, but becareful you don't wake something you don't want.
Anyway enough rambling of me.
Enjoy the post.
I shall post again later to reply to Arn's attempt.

[Omni5876]

Hey, dont worry about cliché's but I get it. I am trying for Arn to not be such one either. As to waking up something I dont want....lol I guess I hope he dont learn the hard way.

We dont really have to play out the probe at night. After all, Arn will trial and error some things. He really want to do something to help her. He might become a bit obsessed over it...

[deia876lat]

Well what do make of this?

[Omni5876]

Well what do make of this?

@deia876lat

do YOU want to play out the probing? we could do it as a sort of flash back. I assume it might help in the back story or as a piece of the mystery? Also, I honestly do intend on writing the secondary story arc but I keep on procrastinating on it. Sorry about that. I will work on it a bit more.

Finally, is Arn going to have to work hard to convince her or we are heading there anyways lol. I was just wondering how strong his argument needed to be lol.

[deia876lat]

Clearly my 'you's' don't stick around grin.

I didn't have anything specifically in mind for the probing yet, but I like to challenge myself so I don't mind trying to do this. That said do you wish that some of the veil of the mystery is lifted?

As for the argument. It is Arn. Eilis regards you with more trust then she does herself. If you tell her to jump into a tiger's enclosure she will, she won't be happy about it, but she will not be that hard to convince.
She knows you want what is best for her...she doesn't have to like it though.
I am planning for us to go travel and get sucked into the battlefield again (partially), of course the sisters will reoccur and depending on your choices and the way the story unfolds some characters may or may not make it. Don't be too afraid to make choices however, it's more fun that way.

As for the second story arc take your time we're in no rush.

[Omni5876]

lol, no pressure on Arn lol. I dont mind the mystery as long as there are little bread crumbs to follow. The struggle will proably be inside of Arn himself as he logically agrees with Uilles but his heart, who has just recently taken a center stage, will try to muscle his way around.

[deia876lat]

Oh dear, a difficult choice indeed, Reason vs Feelings, Uilles won't be happy with that.
Also you're always free to ask questions, whether or not I can answer them is something else (grins).

[Omni5876]

Sorry sorry, I have not forgotten to post. I just have been busy and not been in the right mind set to reply appropriately. I will try to craft something up soon but I want to make sure that its worth the wait lol.

Also, I dont know if you saw but The Merlin posted up a new RP. Its about Dragon riders and stuff.
