[OOC] Valkyria Chronicles: Lions of the South

[Zarkun]

I'll try to get a reply up to that tomorrow, @Zarkun. Gotta sleep.

@Raven_Operative

No rush.

*@Zarkun rages in the background about not getting a reply*

@Slypheed

I, uh, couldn't find anything to reply to from you...

[Slypheed]

@Zarkun
I was meaning you were raging
_{(Notice the asterisk before the mention?)}

o 3o

[Zarkun]

Well now I feel dumb XD

[Slypheed]

:P

[Raven_Operative]

Fuck it, my rendering crashed and I had to restart it. Might as well write up a post while I wait. (Sleep is for the weak anyway)

Mentions aren't showing up from the hiders.

*Patiently waits for @Lennon79 to post before making post with Brenna*
_{(And by "patiently waits", I mean rocking back and forth, wanting Brenna to interact with Lilly)
(Badly wanting Brenna to interact with Lilly)
(Very badly)
(Like so badly, I actually had to test how small I could get with the sub code
(This is the smallest apparently....I should sleep)}

As much as I don't want to turn out like Willy Vareb, I think this is something that needs to be said:

We do have other people in the roleplay besides Lilly and Sergeant Harald. We should probably make a bit more of an effort to include everyone in the conversations. Elise, I don't think, has ever been mentioned, and neither has Cecilia. Durandal was just posted for, so someone should talk to her, etc.

Again, sorry: Not trying to be all authoritative here (though I am co-gm, so I guess its sorta my duty), but the RP would probably be more fun for everyone if we made an effort to include all members in the character development sections. Right now it just seems like the same core 3-4 members are having a writing circle-jerk.

[Zarkun]

To be fair, those kinds of concerns go to the sergeant.

[Lennon79]

Noone wants a Willy Vareb (lol), but Raven is correct. I tend to have Harald talk to the squad at large because he's a plot facilitator. The rest if the squad generally needs to talk among itself more.
In this segment, I would like to see everyone post and talk before we move on. Assuming my internet allows me to actually post...

[Raven_Operative]

Oh yeah, perfectly fine @Zarkun, it was not my intention to single anyone out. I was just commenting more on the fact that squad interaction seems to be minimal outside of a few specific cases.

@Raven_Operative

To be honest. I was sitting around waiting for a Durandal post as well. This is why Skye didn't appear below my timeskip line. Didn't want to force actions on someone else's character.

Also, I honestly feel Brenna is ghosted more times than not. The sergeant, and your Lily only ever acknowledging her (and to be honest, Skye will as well. And there may be others that acknowledged Brenna, but my memory is fuzzy.) But Lily is the only one to consistently acknowledge Brenna.

And Skye was made to give the squad a very social person (to solve the issue you are mentioning). And pretty much socialize with anyone around her. Even if they exhibited Darcsen hate. Just that Skye just joined up and hasn't had much time to socialize yet.

[Zarkun]

James hasn't interacted with Brenna because there hasn't been any real reason for him to. Otherwise he'd be all over that.

[Slypheed]

@ZarkunFair point.

Hay @Raven_Operative, I realized something. There wasn't much of a conversation at all in the group that was out patrolling. Zeal and Cecilla had a tiny one, but that was about it. So the same 3-4 members circle-jerking isn't the entire problem. Literally, an entire group separated from the two main conversation targets did not converse. I didn't want to call it out, but in reality, there was a perfect opportunity to converse and start developing friendships and such, but it went to waste. Two people tried, but I feel I might have let those two down with not continuing, I'll take blame there. But my point still stands, regardless of my probable failure.

Also, no one here can be a true Vareb until they complain about their character's oversized sword not being the point of hilarious reactions.

@Slypheed

Why is no one having a hilarious reaction to my oversized sword?!

[Lennon79]

Because you don't have one.

Well played, good sir, well played.
