That was AWESOME.From laughing at the fact Elizabeth strait-up backhanded a Gligar, to being concerned over the fact she and Rudy got hurt. Truly an excellent post that got me sucked in and really excited. Holy balls.Before I work on a post, I have to ask you Chev: Do you intend to beat the living hell out of that grunt, or is having the others run away with him in tow instead of getting in a fistfight okay? I have no preference, it's up to you. o.oI'mma have to start working on my battle post as soon as I can, though it might not be up tonight.

That depends, do you want one captured? xD If so, Yes, he will get the hell beat out of him. xD

Go ahead and pummel him, then. Because capturing people is fun.

Made me laugh even harder.

I'll get a post up today, probably after Chev decides to break her opponent. Literally. :p

[Chev]

Posted. :)

I winced when reading that. In a good way. Poor gruntie.

Now to wait excitedly for Raddum's post!

[Todd Howard]

Post is up. Sorry for the delay, but this one is pretty decent in size.

[Stitches]

I'm curious to where this might take us. Logically, I bet we'll either go to Rustler farm, the forest, or the port... I also wonder how this plucky team of tour takers will go on an adventure. All in due time, I suppose. Raddum, I might have the makijngs for a smaller collab between Elizabeth and Michael concerning the busted purification chamber and costs, but I'll drop a PM to you about it.

[Todd Howard]

I have a general idea of the order of the locations we will be visiting, though depending on how a few things happen throughout the RP, that might change drastically. We'll see, though. Our first stop should become known to the group within my next few posts. :3

Super-tired post is in. I managed to get it out before I myself ended up out. Passed out that is.

I'm going to go fall in my bed and die for the next 6 hours now.

Posted. I love love love LOVE RPing Elizabeth, but I also feel I should clarify a couple things in my post, mainly about Elizabeth's delusional thought processes on Rudy.-hopefully-, it doesn't seem too outlandish for a 12yr old, but I used a few things I learnt ages back.

First thing is a bit of a theory that always interested me, which was nature vs nurture. As it turns out, if you isolate a child enough from people in their age group, and only use responsible adults - they show a lot of adult mannerisms. I believe it's something to do with adapting to their surroundings, but it makes them easier to handle. Of course, it is CLEARLY not ethically right, so there isn't much about nature vs nurture.

Second thing was a bit of personal experience - I once volunteered to help out in a maths competition. (yeah yeah no life I know but it looked good for my 'experiences' on my CV, so...) and these kids were probably like 9 or something, and came from really prestigious private schools. 9 years old, and they managed to comprehend Quadratic Equations, and basic Trig. I was beyond shocked. It was, in a way, really really amazing to see such bright children, but also really really frightening to think about how many lessons and stuff they've had to go through to get to that stage.

But I also think that kids will ALWAYS be kids, no matter how deep you try to bury it. So Elizabeth is a mismatch of two worlds - the dominant one being the 'adult' frame of mind she's got, how she's been taught that showing childishness is a sign of weakness and humiliation, coupled with about as much social interaction as a teaspoon. She's basically working on textbook lessons alone.

Which is why Elizabeth's so interested in Rudy, and why I bet the two of them will become fast friends. Elizabeth needs to be taught how to be a kid, and Rudy might want someone as rich as her to be scared of and probably learn things from. XD

/rantover

tl;dr - I like Elizabeth a lot and I hope she isn't looking like a Mary Sue because really she's an idiot. <3

@Stiches: Interesting! It should be fun to see Rudy and Elizabeth develop.

Anyway, I just got back from work, but I'll be posting tomorrow because I'm a liiiittle tired.

Posted. Our captured Cipher Peon is ready to talk. xD Took a little persuasion of course.
