[OOC] Striking at Shadows - Dizzy and Purplemouse 1x1

[Mistress Dizzy]

*puts down a little tent, starts a campfire*

It is... open!

[Purplemouse]

Huzzah! Thanks for opening it, Diz. This should be fun!

[Mistress Dizzy]

My apologies for being slow to open. *sigh* My energy took a bad time to vanish. I've suddenly got tomorrow off my D&D session, so... I might be able to manage something. Here's hoping.

[Purplemouse]

You're fine, no worries!

[Purplemouse]

Dizzy?

[Mistress Dizzy]

Yeah. Here. I'm taking the laptop out of the house tomorrow- apparently my time isn't my own where I live. Too many distractions... Also migraines.

Can light cause migraines? Or does it just make an already existing one worse?

[Purplemouse]

To the best oft knowledge light doesn't csuse migraines, but if you suffer from photosensitive migraines, light can exacerbate your symptoms.

Take your time, and feel better...

[Mistress Dizzy]

I live!

Post going up right now. Let me know if anything's missing, or needs more explanation.

[Purplemouse]

This is wonderful!

Sadly, life has happened - including being picked for jury duty. I will do my very best to post tomorrow, I promise.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Ack. Jury Duty. >_< Bring a book or something, just in case.

Also, no worries. I'm really not a big fan of rushing people to post, so if you need time, take time. ^_^

[Purplemouse]

We're allowed to use our phones and such when on recesses.

Don't gt me wrong, I want to post, but as stressed out as I am I just.. can't. Like I just am too wound up and miserable from everything to be able to put down the kind of quality writing you (and the story) deserve.

Like I said, tomorrow. I'll do my best.

[Mistress Dizzy]

*nod* That's just what I mean. I don't want to force you to post because of some arbitrary time limit when you're stressed. My number one rule is that RP is fun. That's it. If making a post would add to your stress, I don't want you to make the post. That simple.

^_^

[Purplemouse]

Well. I hope that's alright. I feel oddly like I'm writing one of those text-based roleplay games. (.. actually, wait a second..)

But point is I wanted to give her plenty of choices instead of just shoving 'look at this poster for a monster that's been attacking this other city!' at her. Let it happen a bit more organically you know?

I also figured this wasn't going to be the affected place as, no doubt, she'd have heard of it prior to arrival. I can change that if you were intending this to be the right city though.

[Purplemouse]

Hey? Everything going alright?

[Mistress Dizzy]

So so. I think my post got eaten by the internet.

I was intending for this to be the city, but... considering how large it is, maybe it's more of a hub for adventurers to get info? And the town requesting help is like... half a day away?

>_< My apologies for slowness. I really think something is wrong with me, because I'm having headaches daily. This is... very new for me, and it's kinda freaking me out.

[Purplemouse]

Hey, don't worry. See a doctor if you're able and it would help with your worries. It's always better to go and find out it's nothing than to not go and have needed to.

And yeah, the hub-town idea works for me. Plus I, well, I don't know. I think it'd be better to get her to get info here and not be immediately walking into the fray, you know?

[Mistress Dizzy]

Exactly, yes. Besides, a city that large would have a much larger chance of having enough resources and strength to real with the problem without hiring freelancers.

Yeah... I'm having trouble with light. It's like everything gets so... so bright. It's not really pain when I look at it, but... all the same, it's like my body revolts from it, like a bad smell. I try to get stuff done, but... it's Florida. Sun is everywhere, and today was bright, so... I couldn't get all the stuff I wanted done, because by the time I got to my third errand, my head hurt so bad that I kinda wanted to puke.

*rubs face* The pain makes concentration impossible.

[Purplemouse]

Hon, I would seriously see a doctor pronto if you can. I'm not sure what could be causing that but there's probably something that could be done to, at least, mitigate the symptoms some.

[Mistress Dizzy]

*nods* That's the plan on Monday. I lost my vision insurance when I lost my job, so I've got to do what I can...

*rubs eyes* Trying to put a paragraph together. I need tavern music...
