[OOC] Starless

[Transience]

It's been a great posting round so far, guys! Very impressive!

I'm going to start working on response posts now. I would expect them up by tomorrow.

[Vigfast]

Yeah, chiming in here now that I've caught up on the thread, some really nice posts and interesting developments!

[Transience]

@Dawnscroll I finally finished reading through your CS! Very enjoyable, and i'd be happy to have Clarent running amok in Ansus. Let's see how many things you can eviscerate with that sword of yours!

@Vigfast It's only going to get more and more awesome. Exponentially heavier crapsack world incoming.

"And then the party stumbled upon the fearsome kittens of adorableness, who filled their hearts with warm feelings that even the most grim of heroes could not resist."

My prediction of what you're really planning...

[rivaan]

OI! Those are the kittens of doom! The adorableness is just so overpowering that we will just refuse to do everything even eating just so we can play with them!!!!! ><!

Kittens of adorable doom are bad idea! NO! ME NOT WANT!

[Corvidae]

I'll have my post up this afternoon, because holy shit, I need to stop sleeping in as late as I did today.

[Transience]

@rivaan Oh, that reminds me actually rivaan. Since the collab post, I don't know where Ki'ira has gotten to, so I won't/can't do a response post for her unless you post before me.

[rivaan]

Gona throw in a post then.

[Transience]

@rivaan Sounds goooooood.

[VoiD]

Can't wait for the response :)

[Transience]

Responses should be up at... i'd say... The morning. I've got all my plans for responses down, it's just a matter of filling it all up with some prose! :)

[Vigfast]

That's what happens when you don't get hugs as a child, you end up wanting to destroy the world, tragic cautionary tale really.

@Transience

I'll have mine up within the hour - I'm just trying to figure out a decent stopping point. Hopefully I'll meet your deadline?

[Transience]

@Vigfast Too true. The Starless actually just has a really bad attitude problem and takes out his anger issues on people like us. Truly sad. Killed his therapist, though.

I propose we host a party in his honour, get him nice and drunk, and he will shower us with kittens and love so we can embark upon more glorious side quests.

[Transience]

@Corvidae Yeah, of course! I try to take a bit of time with responses because I know not everybody has as much free time / types as fast as I do. Gives everybody an equal chance to get in on it!

[Corvidae]

@Transience

As we've all seen, I take forever to accomplish anything of note. It's not that I don't have the inspiration, it's that I tend to second-guess myself. It's like a bizarre, self-deprecating form of perfectionism. 0/10; would not recommend.

[Vigfast]

It's a common problem in writing or RPing, with time I've found that most of my own material that I would consider sub-par works well enough though (although that doesn't make it any easier to post on occasion).

[Transience]

@Corvidae We all have different ways of putting pen to paper, no? Plus, your writing is awesome, so don't second guess yourself! This RP isn't supposed to be a chore, so just post when it feels right for you, I don't want you to feel like you have a deadline to meet or anything. RP's are supposed to be fun and relaxing!

@Vigfast I know what you mean. When I end up GMing games like this, I always end up posting my first draft of pretty much every post. I know I could write far, far better than I am currently, but it is just easier to post it rather than wait a few extra days to re-draft and edit, you know what I mean?

[Vigfast]

Yeah, I'm trying to embrace the idea that a post (even if not perfect), is better than no post (even if said post is awesome!).

[Corvidae]

Speaking of posts, look who's finally keeping her word? This bitch, right here.

So, yeah, I think I've really got to work on honing my dialogue - it's never been my strong suit, particularly where NPC characters are concerned.

...I tried, though! That counts for something, right?
