Oh... thanks! :) Will do. As long as this doesn't mean I have to bring you food or clean your house or anything... ;)

Naaaaaaw...you just have to pledge your undying loyalty to me is all :)

I might be mistaken, but it seems like there's been a misunderstanding regarding the timeline of events surrounding Estella, Henry, and Ari. If you want, Violet, once I get approved I can write my intro post so that Scott is the guy you saw and the girl is a random stranger he met, that way you don't have to edit in light of Henry and Estella's collab post. They're both fantastic posts and I'd hate to see either of them wasted. Thoughts?

I'll PM Violet something she can add to the end of her post from Estella. <3 Fixes everything with the least amount of words.

If everything is left how it is then I have a great way to introduce Scott into the story, whereas if it's amended I have to start from scratch. And its Scott and Emma. It would be nice to make them friends right off the bat, given their history in the comics. At least from my perspective...

lol Sure thing, get after it. <3

Hey now... Don't go getting the wrong idea here. I don't usually write romance with writers who aren't my girlfriend, so I doubt anything more than friends will come of it. Just to get that cleared up... Lol.

Lol. Thanks? I think?

[Schradinger]

And posted! If the mention of Ari's alias isn't something you want in the post, just let me know and I'll happily swap it with another random name. I just thought it might be an interesting way to bring the name up and it kinda made some semblance of sense in the context of the post and Scott's past.

[Mogtaki]

Uhhh, first person...?

Why does it have to be first person .___.; Who is that?

[Schradinger]

Do you not like first person? It's from Scott's perspective. The narrative of most detective novels that take place in the forties is first person, so I though it would fit.

[Mogtaki]

I really don't like narratives haha

It makes the character appear as if they're the central character in my head because it's always central characters who do narratives. I get a sort of recent example is the film Tangled which had a narrative from Flynn at the start and you knew he was going to be the main character and lo and behold, the films entire tone changed completely with him having the most development and basically turned him into the main focus with Rapunzel being the plot device.

Plus it confuses my brain way too much in RPs when there's so many characters and not being reminded what their name is pffff

[Schradinger]

Lol. I can switch to third person in my next post if it bugs you that much.

[Mogtaki]

Maybe yes please lol

Now it is nearly 4am and I must sleep D:

Oh, no. You misunderstand what I meant.

I've written with Violet before in another game. I enjoy her (IC and OOC). She wrote it with Estella/Henry in mind, so I felt I owed her a response from at least Estella since I didn't see her post until after the collab was posted. But is that sentiment strong enough to argue about it with someone who wants to capitalize on my mistake to provide them an easy entrance? Nope. Not that big a deal. Hence, 'lawl, go ahead and write it.'

I'm sure I'll get a chance to make it up to Violet. Maybe I'll have to have Estella hit on her character, or something equally as devilish. ^_^

Hm, no, I rather like it, actually. It's a name that will find a sense of attachment in her subconscious, thus leading to "Emma Frost" as her alias.

Also, might I then say that you are not obligated to post in third person, Schrad (if I am permitted to call you that). It is a choice at which you are capable of making on your own. I do not mean this as an insult towards Mogtaki by any means necessary, but do not allow others to influence how you choose to write. It is not stated anywhere in this role play that you must write in third person, so if you are more comfortable in first person, remain in doing so.

I apologize to the GM's if I have crossed a line I should not have - laying down an advisement that could possibly be false. Please excuse my little ongoing rant. xD

[Schradinger]

Lol. Fair enough. And I apologize for my opportunism getting in the way. It just seemed like it would work out well for all involved.

[Schradinger]

Wow... So many apologies... Lol.

It's no difficulty to write in third person. That's actually how I usually write (though I have done other characters in all first person, as well as some in a combo of both). It's just that given the setting I thought first person might be an interesting twist on the norm. And since Scott is so stoic and controlled on the outside, it would give me a bit better avenue to explore what he's thinking and feeling. I don't want to scare anyone out of the RP though, so switching to third person isn't any problem.

Oh my. You will have Ari's heart quite literally racing if you do so, love. I've already prognosticated the outcome of their encounter - for Ari will at first hold a bit of skepticism towards Estella, being that she is so blatant in her ways, and yet so utterly fluid. Then she will grow a sort of 'crush' if you will for her and then lead to something much more complex, I would imagine.

In other words, it's going to be one hell of a lesbian romance cliche for Ari at least.

Oh well in that case.

TOTALLY DOING THAT.
