[OOC] Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

[HereComesTheSnow]

You'll live

[KabenSaal]

Hey guys, if you're having a one on one interaction between two characters and you're both online at more or less the same time would you mind creating a collab. They eight sentence posts that appear every five minutes are sort of getting on my nerves.

@Prince of Seraphs

I could add a metric fuckton of fluff to each post if you want.

[Lady Seraphina]

"It'sok. I will compliment you a million times a day if I must. I can't abide seeing such a beautiful girl like you cry, or feel any sort of sadness. It will no do, and I shall not stand for it" Mokuren's tone was stern, as if telling off everyone who ever passede over complimenting Skyra, and even more strangely, telling off everyone who would, in the future, not compliment her.

@KabenSaal

I don't want anyone to feel insulted but am I the only one who feels we just landed in the middle of a very sappy and cliche romance novel?

[Ookawa]

That's Moku, I guess. No idea how to handle things. Anything that concerns people without causing awkward. Am I right?

[HereComesTheSnow]

True to the source material ayyyyyy

[Sho Minazuki]

RWBY standard fare is shipping females.

@KabenSaal

It was not the length I was taking issue with but the way they were appearing one after the other like machine gun fire. If you're both online and as eager to write as these frequent entrees would suggest then it would not be difficult on your parts to set up a collab and make the interactions much more succinct and compact for those reading.

[Lady Seraphina]

Sorry for the double post.

True to the source material ayyyyyy

@HereComesTheSnow

At what point in RWBY do two characters go from just meeting to comforting one another on every problem they've ever had in there lives. I thought that generally waited for the fourth or fifth interaction on the show.

We could try for just a little bit of subtly here people. I mean reading this I sort of got the impression that they're going to start making out any second and literally they've just met.

[Abillioncats]

It does seem a bit rushed, I mean they don't even know each other at all.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Oh my god I cant believe this

[KabenSaal]

Sorry for the double post.

@Prince of Seraphs

The show can take a bit more of a leeway with these sort of things. Since they are controlling everyone, they judge how and when and where. In RP there is two different parties, sometimes with their own set of plans, and so things sometimes go down the middle.

Also, you have to be a real heartless asshole not to confort someone who is crying, regardless of weither or not you have just met them.

@Prince of Seraphs

I'm on a phone. Can't really collab effectively from it.

[Forsythe]

@Prince of Seraphs: Thank you, finally someone agrees!

Comforting is ok, but going all knight in shining armor does feel over the top. Seriously, give it a collab and go wild there, then sjut psot the end result stretching over at least a day or something, sheesh. If you still wanna end up in bed, fine, get drunk! *cough*I wouldn't know anything about it tho*cough*

[Lugubrious]

That sort of hasted intimacy was something that I thought Frozen portrayed remarkable well. For those unaware, Anna and Hans meet, seem to have some good chemistry, and immediately start thinking they're in love with one another--soul mates, if you will. And surprisingly for this sort of movie, everyone else treats this as exactly what it'd be in real life: stunning naivety. People who immediately open up to others or swear themselves to a near-stranger after hearing only a few of their problems are behaving unusually.

"I will compliment you a million times a day if I must. I can't abide seeing such a beautiful girl like you cry, or feel any sort of sadness. It will no do, and I shall not stand for it"

This isn't comfort. It's like a declaration of love.

Though I think unusual encapsulates Mokuren's affected personality quite well, so maybe it was intentional.

@KabenSaal

Yeah but you also have to be a warm and loving person (not something Mokuren has portrayed) so go immediately for a hug as a means of comfort. Most people would just offer words of comfort.

I'm on a phone. Can't really collab effectively from it.

@Ryonara

If you aren't able at the moment it's totally cool. Just when the option is available it makes it easier for everyone reading.

On an unrelated note, how exactly does Ebon control his R-Types? Cause we already have a character with technokinesis and Lug kinda listed it as a rule that we can't have two identical semblances.

[Ookawa]

I feel everything I do is being highly criticized all of the time. Why does it even matter that I'm still part of this when nothing I do "satisfies" your needs. Why do I even bother to have fun then?

[KabenSaal]

Mokuren - much like myself - doesn't really have what everyone else takes for granted. That being, understanding of emotions. She just acts on the moment without any knowledge behind the act. A qoute from Terry Prachett's Hogfather rather perfectly encapsles this. 'Things just happen, what the hell?'. While it all may seem strange and hasty, it's just Mokuren comforting someone who is crying. And the reason I don't want to do a Colab is because, for me, the scene is going to end really soon, because that is also Mokuren. There has only been Mokuren caught off guard by the new, old, feeling, but she hasn't walked up to Skyra and said 'I love you, let's get married!'. That sort of thing, that sort of understanding, is going to take a while. The pacing might be a bit disjointed, but in the end, it all blances out.

[Ryonara]

A mixture of Telepathy and Telekinesis. His R-types are essentially weird shaped guns (With occasional fancy bit of technology attached to them), and he uses his semblance to control them. he uses his telekinesis to "Sense" through them, allowing him to pilot them as if he was a mini fighter pilot.

[Lucius Cypher]

A bit hasty there Ryo? Cool your tits bro, I'll get back to ya in a moment.

[Lugubrious]

I was addressing Kaben, Pyro.

@KabenSaal

That was a very good explanation. I'm currently working with a character named Nero who also have trouble with human emotions, and it's an interesting challenge to make it work.
