[OOC] Just a Fairy Tale | Glaw & carsgovroom

[carsgovroom]

Oh man it's going to have been 28 posts into the rp and I've finally planned out how I'm going to introduce Liam in my next post.

[Glaw]

Ahaha woo hoo! x3

[Glaw]

Yay Liam! But I see what you did there -- the Queen is slick! Poor Liam. :(

[carsgovroom]

She has an eeeeevil plan ha. I have some character ideas that iI want to run by you if you're interested.

[Glaw]

More characters? Do tell!

[carsgovroom]

Well like I had the idea that Dorothea's father had like an adviser, a Merlin type figure, who Narissa started planting doubts into the king's mind about after they were married and had him banished because he would know what she was. And he would have a little magical ability, too. Nothing like Narissa of course. He could be in Verinia or something. And then I was thinking about making some other characters and putting them in Verinia, since Narissa is clearly targeting them by making it look like they're behind Dorothea's disappearance. I was thinking of making Verinia a kingdom made almost entirely out of forest and lake and it is the least affluent of the five kingdoms. So even the king and other nobles of Verinia would be no more than peasants to someone like Narissa. Also putting most of the non human residents of the country (dwarves, elves, other fantasy races) in that kingdom. Don't want to talk about it too much since you like surprises~

Just trying to give Narissa reason to really hate Verinia ha.

I was going to ask if you minded playing the king? You have a better idea of Dorothea's childhood so you might be a better fit for her father. Also it gives Laim someone else to interact with that's not controlled by me. But I can take a crack at King Whoever if you want me to~

[Glaw]

Ok I can take the King. :)

Also, how does the Queen's portal archway thingy work? I assume it only works for her? But how does she expect the Marshal and company to get back to the castle? Or are they guarding Dorothea until further notice?

[carsgovroom]

I was going to have it only work for her but you're right about the Marshal getting back to the castle. So I think anyone could use the archway, which is why she keeps it so hidden. But I think we should have them guarding Dorothea until further notice. The King could think the Marshal and some of his men are out doing some task or errand or something

[Glaw]

There's way too much here for me to reply to at once. x3 I'm honestly a bit overwhelmed. Mind if I break it up? I also want to know what Sam does here before I assume what happens next.

[carsgovroom]

Yeah totally fine~

[carsgovroom]

Another very long post from me, but mostly because of Narissa's giving August orders ha.

[Glaw]

Brilliant! :3

I gotta admit, it's not even 8 pm now and I am literally nodding off at the computer. I probably won't be able to write anything coherent tonight. :(

[carsgovroom]

Don't fret too much. It's not even 5 for me and I owe like 3 people posts and I'm so tired from classes ah

[Glaw]

I hope I'm not overstepping the story, but for a fairytale story it seemed to be getting a bit too serious. x3

I also never meant for Dorothea to have such a mean streak, but she's been biting people's heads off left and right. I guess she's a little unhinged. XD

[carsgovroom]

No I love the dwarves! They were a wonderful surprise. I hope they continue to be nice ha. Would suck for Sam to have continuously negative experiences with everyone she meets in Eldonia/the Five Kingdoms. She and Dorothea need some friends.

I'm sure Dorothea's had a very stressful time lately and her edginess is slightly justified~

[carsgovroom]

I typed up the response at first, but then I forgot to copy it and I got face to face with an error page!! So I had to retype the whole post ugh never not copying my posts again.

[Glaw]

I think I may have neglected to mention the general way I handle RPs -- any plot twists or curve balls or random appearances of randomness that I happen to drop into the RP are yours to mess with if you so choose. Usually I don't have a plan, so anything you think should happen or any way you think things should turn out, or if something I do gives you an idea, or you feel like complicating a situation or explaining it in a cool way, go for it. If you do something that totally isn't what I was expecting, I'll roll with it. :)

[carsgovroom]

Mmmmmkay I'll keep it in mind. ;) I'm sure ideas will start coming to me.
I've been having a weird week, which is why my posts were slow these last couple of days eh.

[Glaw]

Yea I've kind of been sleepwalking lately, but extremely bored at the same time. Which is why my posts have been pretty short, when I should just stop posting and do something else. XD
