[OOC] Shoujo⁴: Hatsukoi Reunion

[Kensai]

@Nani Want to get the glomp on the way to school? If you give me an opening I can write it into my post. It'll be a little while though - flu went through my family last week and is still hanging around, so I'm having to catch up with work first.

@Kensai

Absolutely. I was planning on him stopping right before the school so he could interact with anyone who wanted to talk before they headed to class.

Also Hope y'all are feeling better!

[Nani]

@Lemons Lol For sure when they're babysitting and thought. Maybe they both meet at the park frequently or specifically make plans to go there so they can also catch up when Haru's not playing with his sisters?

[Yankee]

Where we landing with class assignments? I'm sort of leaning towards separate classes since Junko and Ryuu will be by themselves in different grades, so I think splitting up the 2nd years might be good too. Could do three and three (which would put Haru with Takaya and Koharu) but I'm also fine with Olive's suggestion of those four together. I mean I'm also fine with every 2nd year in the same class but it feels like a lot hahaha.

[Lemons]

I don't think it's the hugest deal since Fey said up front that we're not actually going to be spending much time in class and things will mostly be outside of it (excluding Junko and Ryuu would feel bad too). But three and three sounds fine with me (though the Eikichi post did mention Haru being in the same class, so four and two would also be possible).

[OliveYou]

Happy to retcon if need be but yeah, hopefully the flow of the rp won’t make class assignments a big deal - gotta keep everyone involved, after all.

[Yankee]

True, true. Sometimes I get bogged down in details haha.

[Feyblue]

Yeah, it probably shouldn't matter too much in the long term, since I'm gonna try to avoid bogging things down with long classroom scenes, but who's in who's class does lend some opportunities for classic shoujo moments on the side, like the traditional Person A asking for Person B who's in another class and causing the whole "Are they dating?" rumors to fly around.

I guess it would make a difference if we do things like a sports festival or cultural festival arc, though, since that would determine who's on who's team or who's running what events, respectively.

[Lemons]

D'awww Haru's family is so cute, I love him.

[ERode]

Aaand thar.

I actually didn't realize that Fey was also doing the Click-Clack thing, but it's neat how things turned out.

[Kensai]

Wow, did my post just kill this RP?

[Lemons]

I think Vertigo is just really busy right now, so it's gonna be a bit until we get Ryuu, but I'm confident it's coming.

[Nani]

@Kensai No, sorry work's been chaotic and I was drained for a couple days. I plan on responding by tomorrow, though I don't know how to get it close to the length of my first post when I'm conversing with another person so do forgive me for that

[OliveYou]

@Nani, I can’t speak for everyone else, but my intro posts tend to be super long since it’s the first introduction to my character and my chance to really set the scene. I know I couldn’t keep up that length for every post, especially ones with a lot of back and forth dialogue.

In short, I wouldn’t worry too much about post length as long as you’re giving enough detail for others to work off of. Writing should be fun, not laborious.

[Lemons]

I'd like to second that, my normal posts tend to be much shorter than intro posts. There are exceptions here and there, of course, but by and large it's like half as long, especially since I went super hard into Mikako's siblings since they're going to play a more major role than Haru's, I think.

[ERode]

There’s literally no one who goes around policing who can post in which sections of the Guild. Honestly, I didn’t even recognize that we were in Advanced until just now.

In any case, if you’re concerned about word count, just add a couple pictures.

@Nani

Ayy, no worries, real life comes first and all that. I've actually been catching up with work cause I was sick most of last week. And length doesn't matter what's important is the interaction between the characters! Looking forward to your post, but no rush at all.

[Vertigo]

Weekend be comnin' so will endeavour to finally catch up tomorrow!
