No worries gang. Life happens, was just checking. We're good. :)

[Undying Curiosity]

I'm still here too.

HYOOP, got it up.

I almost forgot why I asked if Largent getting his ass kicked was a collab post or not. I just didn't know if I should've had Blake respond to it since I was still waiting to see if Richard would respond to him.

So that's why Blake just seemed to zone out there.

It's moderately irritating that the system doesn't allow me to delete a post entirely, as if it never existed. But oh well. I've done the best I can under the circumstances. I'll be getting another post up in the not too distant future, probably within a few hours, with any luck. We'll soon be getting into some of the more potentially entertaining aspects of this game. It's also gonna get a little darker at times too. We're gonna play with a few things and see where we end up. :)

I did have a question I wanted to run by you guys.

Like I said before, we're all going to end up with abilities, only you guys and I know what your individual powers are at this time and I trust you to have some fun with the whole trial and error of learning about your power, what it is and how it works, etc. Now, the thing is that I have it set up so that the thing happens, then later people affected get sick, like the worst case of the flu they've ever had. When they recover (usually within a day) they feel better, and they're changed, given abilities. The thing though is that it is unlikely that everyone would fall ill and recover within the same time period. Everyone's biology reacts to things in different ways and at different times so... I'm leaving it to a vote.

Should everyone get sick and come into their powers at the same time?

or

Should I randomly assign you guys when you'll get sick at various times in the story? Some may get sick the day after the incident, others might take a few days to a week.

[TychosFullmeta]

I say just do it all at once. It makes sense that everyone's biology reacts differently, but for our purpose, I don't think it's necessary to factor that in.

[Great Sogeking]

Yeah I agree. If this weren't an RP it'd be a good idea to stagger it out, but I don't think we oughta wait around for it all to catch on.

[Ally610]

Yup, just do it all at once.

[pockets]

That's kinda what I was thinking but wanted to see what you guys thought too. Sounds like a plan.

[Undying Curiosity]

I'm a bit late, but I think every character falling ill at the same time would be best.

[Thundercrash]

I think I'll play the illness bit by ear.

[Inertia]

Same time would be best, otherwise it may take up a bit of time!

[pockets]

Ok, so I spent the entire day at the hospital. Not hurt, don't worry. But I was distracted so I'll be getting a post up tomorrow when I have a little more time to think and focus on what needs to happen. We're getting close to the part we've all been waiting for ladies and gents.

[pockets]

Alrighty, gang. Getting on that post right now. It's been difficult and exhausting few days and I apologize for the delay but I'm back on it as we speak.

[Thundercrash]

Sophia's family is weird.

[pockets]

Sophia's family is weird.

@Thundercrash

I like them. :) Post is up, finally. Had some birthday celebrations and my daughters book report to help her with get in my way so it took a little longer than intended but there we go. I'm really sorry for the slow movement but things will pick up guys, promise.

[Thundercrash]

@pockets What sort of ambiance does this park have? Dark or brightly lit? I'm getting devious ideas.

[pockets]

@Thundercrash Fairly lit along the paths but in between there's not a lot of lighting.

[Thundercrash]

:3

heh heh. heh heh heh.

@Inertia@Undying Curiosity@Ally610@Great Sogeking@TychosFullmeta

Alright ladies and gentlemen. Because I'm just entering into finals period now and I want to have a little bit of fun before sacrificing some of my soul to the Gods of Academia, I'd like to play a little game. I call it "Catch Sophia before She catches You".

The rules are as follows. Now wholly incapable of taking detention seriously, Sophia takes it upon herself to liven things up a little. She also learned from an early age how much fun it is to scare the crap out of someone. So, she's already lurking inside the park, and will be stalking you. As she does so, she will be dropping little hints, noises and such, to indicate to the others that someone is not taking this seriously, and it clearly cannot be Sophia, since she never showed up at the start.

I would like you to include these hints in your posts of tonight. Whomever comes up with the most creative means of being "stalked", as judged by our illustrious GM @pockets, gets to shit their pants and give an undignified scream when Sophia ninja-gropes their butt. Remember, barring a locked door Sophia can basically go wherever she pleases, so think 3-dimensionally. You also cannot catch Sophia, because she invented this game and has spent years mastering it.

If you do not wish to participate, then Sophia shall declare you to be a boring old fuddyduddy, and you shall be ineligible for ninja-butt-gropes.

The game begins once everyone else has arrived at the park. Who's with me?

[Great Sogeking]

That is incredibly silly.

I'm in.
