[OOC] Splinters

We can talk here now I guess :P

[MegaraFoxfire]

This helps a lot. If you work on the first post, I can work on the crew members I have lined up.

[Hidden Lilly]

I can easily do that :) I just had to leave from my workplace/school (I work on campus in a relaxed job) so I couldn't do it right then.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Cool cool. I can't wait!

[Hidden Lilly]

It's going well thus far i'd say :) I'm rather enjoying this!

[MegaraFoxfire]

AS am I. I can't wait to show you Avery's curse...its going to be sweet

[Hidden Lilly]

Ohhh, that is so exciting :3 I'm looking forward to it!

[Hidden Lilly]

Pirate curses, insults and general common phrases :)

My posts may be sparse over the weekend, i'll try to get at least one a day in.

[Hidden Lilly]

Sorry that took so long >.<

The weekends are hard for me to post on as that's when i'm doing most of the wedding planning.

[MegaraFoxfire]

No problem at all. I got married only a couple months ago so I completely understand.

[Hidden Lilly]

Oh really? Congratulations :)

[MegaraFoxfire]

Thank you

[Hidden Lilly]

I'm so sorry for disappearing, I got hit with a really bad head cold. I spent all of Monday and Tuesday in bed :P

[MegaraFoxfire]

No worries love, your just fine

[Hidden Lilly]

alright :)

[Hidden Lilly]

I'm not sure where you are planning for this to go but I do have a kind of idea for what I would like to do with Amelia.

I do want her to stay on the ship for the length of the story. I want to use her as a symbolical character as well as create a bit more tension. To Daniel, Avery is everything new/adventurous/wild/world savy where as I want to put Amelia in a position where she is everything old/what he had first dreamed of/docile/wide eyed innocent. I am planning to have Amelia fall for the doctor, and kind of be his good temptation to choose the life he wanted as a child. Avery would be his choice for life on the sea (which he will ultimately choose). I think it would toss in an interesting dynamic. Maybe Scarlet and Amelia can become good friends during the adventure?

Also, what I just said may make more sense if I explain what I'm thinking for their ages (please correct me if i'm wrong).
To me; Avery and Daniel are within 2 years of each other, Bane and Avery/Daniel are within 5 years of each other with Bane being older than the two, Amelia is 4-10 years younger than Avery and Daniel. I don't know the average age for pirates and the like so this is just a rough idea of the potential gaps between the characters.
