[OOC] Beyond a Fire's Embers

[Genkai]

Did we still wanna have all the Tributes gather at the end on stage? I figure it was for them all sort of flip off Snow by "standing together" (or something?) but maybe it was also part of the show? But damn interviewing 48 people, I'm sure that's like....10 mins for each person, that's still several hours...I mean my math is probably off but damn, I'm surprised it wasn't over two or three days but we'll probably pretend it didn't take like eight hours. :/

[mmidnight]

Sure, we can do that. I like that little act of defiance.

I imagine it's sort of an all day thing? It's not like the rest of the country has anything else to do. I just did the math real quick based on your ten minutes a piece thing and it's eight hours. So, I don't think we'd be off base to set our four in the evening if the interviews were to start at, say, noon.

[Genkai]

Shirtless Finnick here we come! XD

I figured as much, and it would have to be in our case. I think that's fair to have them going on all day since it's not all the Districts need to really pay any mind at this point except at the end of it all.

[mmidnight]

yaaaas, no shirts ever.

I always took it as watching the games and anything to do with them was mandatory. Like, no one was allowed to do anything else and the interviews and the parade were as much of a punishment as the games themselves.

[Genkai]

The Capitol surely micromanages things. I'm just about done with Gale's bit and I'll be ready to post.

Btw, finally watching Scrotal Recall (3 mins in baby) and it is very much my kind of humor, def recommend it.

[mmidnight]

Awesome c: I'm looking forward to it.

Ooh, sounds good! I wanted to start watching it tonight, but I don't think that's going to happen.

[Genkai]

On my last paragraph now, then I'll hop in bed and snuggle up with Netflix, mah serious bf. <333

My mind did just now make the connection of total recall and scrotal recall too. For some reason up until now, it just looked like some made up word. ^^;

[mmidnight]

Oh Netflix, u so flossy <3

Haha, really? I thought you knew!

[Genkai]

No. XD I honestly didn't even realize it until a minute into the show and was like "OHHHH that makes sense...yeah." I'm a girl, I don't think about scrotums. But it amused me so, good choice on a tv show title. My brain needs rest...thank god I'm going to school heheh.

[mmidnight]

The funny title was what caught my attention, haha.

I loved the post c: I'll get to work on mine tomorrow and then you're free to reply whenever you've got the time.

[Genkai]

At least it didn't go over your head. XD

Successful posts make me happy. :3 I look forward to checking it out when you get a post up. Since I need to be up at 6:30 as opposed to 8:30 or 9, I better head off now. I'll give you a text tomorrow. I may just skip my first class and do my homework for my second one so I'll have better reception at the library. I hope you feel better and hey, at least you've got clean teeth~!

[mmidnight]

Alright! Sleep well and talk to you tomorrow c:

[Genkai]

Hey! I wanted to pop on real quick and say I LOVED the post, happy about the length. I'm giddy for that kind of awesomeness. I did talk to my friend ( who I'm meeting up with tomorrow ) and she moved our date night to the evening so I will in fact, have the morning and mid afternoon to myself since my dad will be running errands and won't need me after all so I can say with fair certainty that you'll be getting a post tomorrow from me. :e

[mmidnight]

omg, I'm so excited :3 I'm so happy to have this as a regular thread again!

[Genkai]

I hope I can get something epic created within the next five hours or so, I'm starting on my post now so let's see. ^^;

[mmidnight]

Me waiting patiently like Britney in the 90s.

Srsly, if you can't get it done today, don't worry. It pretty much took me forever to do the whole post and I did the first half in like an hour and a half and then I dicked around for the rest of the day until I felt good enough to do the other half.

[Genkai]

Okay, I'll see what I can do but I wanna remain confident and hopeful~

If I can at least do things up to the dress change today, I'd be happy honestly. Then I can finish it tomorrow night (though after my test I may be brain dead) but then finishing Friday is still an option but I need to dig up my old stash of outfits. Either way I am looking forward to doing some writing for you today. With luck, I'll finish most, if not all but like you said, doing it in one sitting might be a bit much eheh.

Our RP is pretty epic though, every post is fucking gold IMO. XD

[mmidnight]

What we discussed definitely didn't sound like a lot but just getting to the morning for them, I was like, oh wow, this is a lot more than I thought. Like I said last night, I even cut some things out or it probably would have been five pages. So if you need a break, or even have to wait until Friday, I don't mind. It's almost as big of a task as when we did that skip in the beginning to get to the reaping.

And yes, this RP is the most epic, productive and easy thread I've ever had in all of my years of RPing :3

[Genkai]

The Reaping posts were tons of fun, mine took an entire all nighter if I recall. Oh those emotions, fuck, that was the beginning of our master plan. And okay, thanks for being understanding. No matter when you get it (tonight or within the next day or so) it'll be awesome because your post was awesome. And as we both know, good posts spawn other good posts~

I'm glad we've got some traction. 2-4 posts a week (mostly on weekends) seems to be working out for us. Come summer, I know I'll have a lot more free time, unless I find an internship/volunteer work/a job. :/

[mmidnight]

I stupidly did all of mine in one shot, but it took me like three hours and I don't think I wrote anything else that day, haha. I have no doubts that your post will be awesome :3

And that's fine. I don't have a problem with how much you post and I also don't mind the wait.
