[OOC] Dreaming Together With You - A Fading Memory Experiment - On Hiatus

[Gisk]

Quick retcon, if you'll allow it. At some point between delivering Isaias to his brothers and running into Sidney, Audrey got cold and retrieved her jacket.

[Gisk]

@PerfectThought How is the change you made for Brown exactly the same as what I was gonna do for Audrey?

EDIT: for real, my original idea was words shifting around her skin, in a variety of languages. I expect the reasoning is slightly different, though. Audrey does have a certain respect for language, but it was more of a "wearing one's heart on one's sleeve" kind of deal. I had in mind that the words written would be quotes and references that reflected her character and current mood.

Anyway, trying to think of what else to do with her, now.

Fate is truly a cruel mistress haha. Either way, Brown's is more so he is literally a book. Thus the Vellum skin. And the contents of his skin aren't related to him in any way. It's meant to be like he's a living breathing repository of knowledge. He also got looooong. If you wanna do your original idea, I'm sure it's different enough that it could work. Maybe there'd be some play-off how on a surface level, their change looks similar, and that could initiate some kind of interaction?

[Gisk]

There's certainly merit in that idea, but I thought of something in a similar spirit.

A quick note, the patterns in her skin can change. It's kind of a mix of poison warning markings, like on snakes or frogs mentioned in the post, and a cuttlefish.

@Gisk

Oooooh. That's terrifying and badass.

I wrote entirely too much and I am extremely sorry. I pray you all can forgive me.

I really enjoy writing and do not expect/require any particular standard of length from anyone, for the record. I put this thing in the Casual section for a reason and that was just to have fun with people. This is quirk of me being me, not any sort of standard for the roleplay.

@Fading Memory

I loved reading that. It gave me quite the vibe. With your inspiration, I typed out the first half of my post in record time. Now I'm stuck on the back half just trying to decide what Ambrose looks like. Is he even hotter? Or do I go hard the opposite? His inner self is... SURPRISINGLY... more complicated. His outer self is just a hot, dumb rock someone put googly eyes on.

@psych0pomp

A) Thanks! It's supposed to evoke the same "heart on her sleeve" as my first idea, but with the addition of the poison warning, which I think is also fitting.

B) What if he looked exactly the same, except carved out of like living granite or marble or something?

@Gisk

Do the patterns change with her mood? Because if so then it's very similar to what I was planning for Sidney.

@Gisk

I think I figured it out. Since he's loveable and buff. His true self is an even purer form of that:

Hider

Jk. Jk. I actually do have a good idea, and it mixes a few traits along with a strong fantasy element.

[Gisk]

@King Cosmos Aw shucks, that was the idea lol. We're all stepping all over each other here!

Though, depending on what hers is, exactly, it's not too bad of a similarity. I'm definitely leaning more into the froginess than anything.

[Jumbus]

Post up

Just a heads up that I'm going to be away for the next week. I can likely make a small post if need be, but it will be via phone so be warned lol

I don't think anyone wluld have complaints about cat Ambrose haha. He definitely seems like the kind of bloke to own an incredibly pampered beloved cat.

[Gisk]

Audrey be like

[Conscripts]

Alright posted. Also, realized halfway through writing my post that David reminds me of someone...

[Fading Memory]

I dig this all. This is pretty much exactly what I was going for.

If everyone would please add these descriptions to their character sheets under a Hider labeled ‘Yo’Bikur Form’ that’d be awesomesauce.

Muahahaha, my plan to make my players roleplay out their character sheets is going swimmingly; this has set the vibe way better for this style of RP than just asking this kind of stuff up front.

[Taka]

Ill have my post figured out by Wednesday at the most. Had to deal with a balloon release Saturday and two DND sessions today. Hopefully don't hold anything up.

[PerfectThought]

@Fading Memory Same, this is pretty cool.

Curious though, what's the verdict on clothes? Is it going to be a case-by-case basis as to whether people want their clothes magically changed?

@PerfectThought

The clothes thing is whatever to me; I leave that in you folks hands. Appropriate attire for the realm can be/will be/is provided so if folks just want to transition attire now that doesn’t bother me.

[SilverPaw]

Wrote some today. Will see if I can finish tomorrow.

[Fading Memory]

As a heads up to everyone, I finalized my drafts of power designations before anyone talked to me or showed their Yo’Bikur Forms; they did not and have not influenced that draft of powers whatsoever, and I am tickled at how things are lining up so far.

@Fading Memory

Hey dude, the changes I came up with for William are all kind of usefull, should I make them only cosmetic or can I make them work as intended, I am fine with it either way
