I . . . I can't relate to this whatsoever. I'm usually focused on the plot, tension-building scenes, etc. Whatever social aspects of shows I do get involved with is more along the lines of "This character X should do say Y to character Z" or "This character X should do this to character Y so that they'll get Z accomplished"

I mean, I get the reasons, sort of. Then again, I've gathered that this shipping thing is popular among fangirls of shows like Supernatural and Doctor Who and movies like Harry Potter and Hunger Games. _{three of which i found to be mediocre and lacking in many aspects}

it must be a fandom thing, though.

also i apologize for being a pleb about these things but

why are people so obsessed with shipping

what is it about shipping that brings you such joy and fulfillment? i must know these things

For Queen and Country

how do some of you even manage to play as five or more characters

how do you keep up with that

isn't it stressful or . . . ?!

Opallum

Location: Nearby Faraday Heights once again --> Walking around Edgetoun
Interacting With: No one, currently.

Opallum continued travelling along the sidewalk with little energy in his posture and step. His mind had wandered to the topic of both domestic and international economics -- he had certainly become that bored. Taking a quick 1 o'clock glance to his right, he spotted the familiar architecture of Faraday Heights coming into his view. Looked like the ifrit had finally gone in a circle. He had been walking to nowhere specifically for most of the morning, enjoying whatever aesthetics the borough of Edgetoun had to offer, so it would only make sense that he'd pass by the same landmarks eventually. As Opallum began walking past the Faraday flats with an idle gaze kept forward, he abruptly winced and, almost compulsively, placed a hand atop his abdomen.

There it was.

The sharp pang of realization which strikes the mind and, succinctly, the body. An instinct staunch in its function and pervasive in its blunt indication. For someone like Opallum, these pains had always proved to be an especially familiar nuisance.

Hunger.

Previously, Opallum had only snacked on a half-eaten breakfast sandwich that someone had so hastily thrown away nearby Avalon Heights, and that morsel managed to hold him over for a few hours.

He only now realized that he hadn't another bite of breakfast to eat this entire morning. If having to deal with the makeshift alleyway-bound beds, the prevalent chill of London weather, and the mordant, judgmental gazes of more socioeconomically upstanding passersby couldn't cause enough suffering among the homeless community, hunger was a particular aspect of this life which really just . . . blew. Rather than going through the usual, tedious process of sifting through public trash cans and dumpsters for some slightly edible scraps of food, he instead decided to put his quest for sustenance on hold. Sating this desire didn't always take precedence over everything else when it arrived. For now, he would continue walking around -- drifting. Opallum would wait for maybe an hour or two before seriously seeking out any foodstuffs. He could endure.

Why do people feel the need to play five characters

Such a lust for staying preoccupied

Also, how do we keep track of time? Do we just advance it whenever or will McHaggis say "Alright now it's like 12 PM"

B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

Going to college soon, so my qualm is pretty relevant.

Fucking safe spaces. Fuck anyone who conceived and put the idea in motion.

For Queen and Country

Being homeless is actually pretty fun to roleplay.

I think my next post will just be about Opallum dumpster diving for food and drinking water out of decorative fountains or something second-rate like that for survival. Good times.

@Apokalipse

Opallum = strange homeless man who likes talking to random people on the street and loiters about everywhere. I don't think Nikita and him have spoken yet, but he's more than likely given her a few looks, a head nod, and a raised brow.

holy fuck

all these people making MORE characters

it's already hard for me to follow with 15 characters

_{end my suffering}

Cleared up my latest post. Wouldn't make sense for humans to just be like "oh hey that guy's producing fire from his fingers haha" so I stamped that little hole out.
