"...ah.. marry her till she dies and keep all the money to yourself?"

Okay, so after group two meets they'll hit the cave? Or we're you guys planning on visiting one house together ^^? *Hops up and down* I'm so excited for your surprise, ahahaha. And now that you've seen the clue post you'll be seeing the humans in a new light 8D

[Pachamac]

Mado has gone up 50 points in Vince's eyes. |D lmfao @ her actually wearing it XD

Hope everyone's having a fantastic day! *v* What kind of music does everyone like? I love listening and exploring and finding new artists and musics so if people could share I'd be much appreciative |D

I prefer rock/metal genres but again, I'm happy with listening to any and all genres. My favourite artists are Celldweller, Paramore and Within Temptation. How about y'all? :D

And Pach's song of the day:

[Fox of Spades]

Awesome posts Kimchi and Aki :D I'll move group one along tomorrow or tonight if I finish reading The God of Small Things. OTL

Also, awesome idea Pach! I'll listen to the video later tonight and I'll be sure to spam you guys with music! How is the day :D? I hope everyone has a grand one. And group two if Phones hasn't moved you along by tomorrow, I'll have a NPC do it ^^ since I don't want you guys to fall behind. I need you at the caves before group one leaves the lake.

Be back in a few hours~!

[Kimchi]

Love me some chill step and high time music XD

[Fox of Spades]

Awesome songs, guys (^w^)/

Pach, it's so lively and colorful. I can imagine Vince partying it up with those other people xD! Kimchi, her voice + the electronic stuff is so cool and defo chilling, it made me think of a siren for a little while :3 and reminded me a bit about Emancipator. You guys already know I <3 Owl City and all of Adam Young's other projects (Sky Sailing <3 Port Blue <3) but I'll drop a song here too~! Owl city played a big part in the creation of Nowhere >w< since the music inspired some places and other stuff.

[Pachamac]

Ooooh, awesome music. I like how nice and chill these are compared to what I normally listen to, lol. Really nice musics :D

[Fox of Spades]

Haha, thanks Pach ^^

And guys, I'm sorry but I won't be able to move anyone along or set things up before Friday :/ I've got workshop for poetry and an exam tomorrow (so I can't post now, gotta go study) and after class I'll be meeting up with group mates so we can work on our group paper, the draft is due Friday and while it's a draft we want it to be good since it'll be both our final project and exam. I might be getting back late, so if that's the case I'll post Friday night at earliest. I hope you guys all have a grand mornight.

Whooo, it's been so quiet D: how is everyone doing?

Phones, nice post, but how does Haku know about the nobody lying? Also, could you PM me the info you want him to know? How much did the Nobody tell him? I just want to make sure the info works with what I have in mind ^^ and there are some things, the nobodies and the lost souls shouldn't know till they are revealed.

Group two can you try getting your humans to the cave before Friday :/?

Anddddddd could I see a bit more consistency? I've noticed some of you guys have been posting once in 4-6 days when it's supposed to be one in three. If you're busy, that's fine, but I'd like to be told on the OOC. Oblivion? What's up? Four?

I don't want us to keep Pach and Anon waiting too long :/ let's stick to the three day rule, people, but as I said if busy just say so here. I will understand, I just want to be informed so I know what's up. I hope this is alright with everyone?

And Kimchi, Aki, feel free to drag Harper along though we're kind of ahead of group 2 in the whole getting the surprise thing so feel free to take a break while I go deal with school stuff ;A; the three of our humans can catch up with group 2 later. We're nearing the end of this chapter, but I need everyone in the cave before stuff happens 8D

[Pachamac]

Nobody needs to rush for my sake. I'm looking forward to joining but I don't want that at the expense of a rushed chapter, y'know? ^^; Saying that though, yeah, posssts peopleeessssssssssss >:D

@Music: PACH I APPROVE OF YOUR MUSICAL CHOICES

@Fox: About the lying thing: I randomly mentioned, in Leila's recap, the Nobody's gesture of "scratching her nose or neck". Incidentally, those gestures are commonly considered strong indications of lying.

Sour throat. Went to the doctor. Turns out there's an infected wound down there. Welp.

I'd say that I have a hole in my throat now, but strictly speaking my throat is a hole itself, which would lead to ...some...complications. Nothing makes sense.

Writing up a post, taking a while because there's quite a bit to react to. Sorry about being late. I expect to have some time tomorrow though, so expect a post up then, I guess.

About consistency - a little info about my schedule: In this semester it seems like only the last two days of the week (Thursday and Friday) are free, and Weekends depend. I unfortunately have to rely on the posting gap to fall in that interval, otherwise it'll be a couple of days before I reply or even go online. But on the bright side, the two nights are almost completely free (unless emergency events arise, like today), so I can be sure to at least write something up and pull no week-scale-length disappearances.

[Fox of Spades]

Awesome post Oblivon (^w^) and don't worry, Pach and Anon.

It's just, we have a three day rule and I want to keep it.

@Four - Okay, that makes sense, but it isn't foolproof since it could be a quirk ^^ but for now it's okay since Phones PMed me and told me about the specific info you guys got. Get well soon, Four :/ hope all is well and I'll look forward to your post.

Also, I'm fine with you guys being busy and stuff :/ but one post a week all the time is something I won't accept....especially not for a long period of time. Do you have time for this or not? Like I said, short posts are perfectly fine as long as the ball keeps rolling, I'm sorry. If you're that busy you can squeeze in a paragraph or two once in three days and that'd be good enough :/ better than one post in one week. Just restating the rules and expectations that have been set, I hope this is okay.

Kimchi, Aki, terribly sorry for the wait. You'll get your surprise tomorrow. ^^

After school for now I gotta work on papers. Hope you all have a nice day and what's up? :D

[GreenGoat]

Thought we're posting in cycles? Then I should be posting after Oblivion does,I think.

[Fox of Spades]

Cycles was for when everyone was together :/ when the group split up we decided to go with the 3 day rule so no one would be kept waiting for long. And yep, group 2 has been reunited (^w^)/ or will be soon-ish.

[Pachamac]

Oh, what I meant by my post is that I wouldn't want the story in the IC and the chapter's conclusion and the pacing rushed just for the sake of allowing me (and Anon) to enter. :) I very much agree with the posting rule/guidelines stuff. I don't really have any grounds to say anything considering I'm new and haven't posted in the IC yet, but speaking as a GM in another rp- consistency is very, very important, and I think Fox's posting requirements are extremely fair and manageable. It makes her and all of her co-gms job (and the rest of the players' as well) job a lot easier. Once every 3 days is really good, whilst once a week would drive any rp to a slow crawl. :S

Best of luck with your homework, Fox!

AND YUSSS FOUR NO ONE CAN DENY THE AWESOME OF BABYMETAL



How is everyone else doing? I hope you guys are having a fantastic day!!

Sorry, Fox-chan, but I just have to react to this. Hope you don't take it personally.
Four stated that they have a wound in their throat. I can not speak from personal experience, since I have never had such an injury, yet I can imagine how hard that must be on him. Knowing quite the bit about anatomy and biology in general, I know very well that that is a serious problem, which may lead to very serious complications, which, if not treated properly and quickly, may result in dire circumstances. With the thought of that wound causing great damage to their body, not to mention the pain he is surely going through, I doubt Four can even sit and think properly about writing just one measly little post. Why, there have been times when I have been sick and simply rested atop my bed with my mind completely blank, because it hurt to do much thinking. You can't help it when you're head is hazy during an injury or illness. It has to pass on its own. And Four isn't the type of person to just write two sentences and call it a day. He likes writing just as much as we do and I believe he wants to post and make proper paragraphs, but he's just not feeling well enough to do so. I think we should all be a little considerate about Four's situation.

Once more, excuse me, Fox-chan, but I think you were a little harsh.
Have some music. It never hurts anyone (except your feels XD)

Music Night with Headphones presents: A little piece

[Fox of Spades]

No, it's fine. If you guys have anything you wanna voice out, go for it ^^

And let me clarify my own post last night. I am totally fine with Four resting while he is sick, that's not the problem. If you guys are sick, you should rest up as much as you need to. My problem is that ever since we started Four has been inconsistent. Sometimes posting once per cycle sometimes once in two weeks, but mostly around once a week. I noticed that whenever we try to interact with Leila, we either have to NPC her or wait before we are given a response and usually the cycle ends with Leila being ushered around by Dissonance.

Four can rest up as much as he likes now, the problem is if he plans to post once per week throughout the entire RP.

Thank you, Pach, and I agree that one post in one week would slow this down a lot. The rules say one in three and you guys agreed with this before you joined. What I wanted to say in my previous post was that I expect Four to post once in three days in the future and if he's busy, two to three paragraphs in three days will do, and I don't think that will take a ton of time. I just want to see Leila actually replying to someone without keeping them waiting or me having to NPC her.

Is this clearer? I don't want to sound crabby and, Four, you know I love you and Leila, but I'll reinforce the rules that have been set.

Hope you have a nice day ^^ I'm going to head for school now. Expect a surprise post for group one tonight.

[Kimchi]

Yipee!!! Surprise, surprise!!! Can't wait :D

[GreenGoat]

will post by tonight I think.

[John]

Fully aware that I'm one of the people that lack consistency most in the group right now. Really sorry about that. And, um, no, I was not saying I would only be able to go at one post a week the rest of the RP - there's always writing time to squeeze up, but that I'll be doing most of my WRITING on the two days at the end of the week, and the weekend; meaning either that my supposed posts every week will either not be placed as evenly as I'd prefer, or that I'll have to come up with rough drafts to only be quickly edited and posted in the earlier half of the following week.

Once again sorry about wording my statements in the last post to be a bit confusing. My thinking process was probably also a bit messed up back then. Will try to assure you that the concerns are unnecessary.

From an in-character perspective, I'm trying to get developments ensue so she talks to and cares about people more - perhaps some part of that will already be noticeable in her interaction with Haku, although maybe only just a bit. And now she has quite a bit to answer to, so we'll see about that.

Again really sorry about slowing down after I said I was expected to be able to go with a more steady pace.

Expect a post before the end of this day I guess.

[Fox of Spades]

It's alright, Four. Glad we have that cleared up and I hope you get better soon ^^

I'll have a post up in around an hour or two.

Happy Friday from the future <3! How is everyone's day going? Anddddddd what's up (^w^)/
