Co-GMs can be really helpful ^^
At the moment, I have two pals who help me out with my RP. They usually take care of things when I'm away, help with the scene setups, play important NPCs with me, and help out with the plotting. Their help has definitely been invaluable :D.
It helps that we've known each other for a long time. If you're gonna get a co-GM, knowing them beforehand is a good idea. Kaga's idea works well too. Don't just pick the person who wants to be co-GM off the bat, pick someone you know you can plan with, someone who's dedicated to the RP and reliable. It helps when there's some level of trust and friendship there ^^

Dance Floor: Ran and Anna
Not only was the human kind and funny, Ran was also amazing on the dance floor. The man literally swept her off her feet, and the nobody's lips quirked up into a smile. Had they not been in a dance competition, she would have grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and kissed him then and there. Oh my, it almost sounded like the big finale of some romantic comedy.
His dance moves were unconventional, but she had been dancing at balls for almost all her life. Anna managed to match his moves and the result was flurry of fantastically timed footwork and twirls. Ran pushed her away with one arm, pulled her close then dipped her. The duo held their position for a few breaths before he slowly brought her back to her feet. "My, my, Ran." Anna's face had turned several shades of pink, "where did you learn to dance like this? You must have swept a handful of women off their feet." He twirled her around, "you're probably the most unique dance partner I've ever had." Now, the spotlight was on them and several hoots and cheers filled the dance floor.
"We might actually win this, yes?" Anna took a small step back then pulled Ran close, so close that their noses almost touched. Step forward, step back, repeat, repeat, then push each other away before reuniting once more. "Now twirl me around." He did as told before she fell back and he caught her in his arms. This human was a fast learner, "my hero."
The speakers above them crackled to life and an excited voice boomed throughout the room.
"Carrot cakes, ladies, gentlemen, and cheese graters! It looks as if one pair is dominating the dance floor." The spotlight continued following them and a few nobodies were attempting to imitate Ran's unconventional dance style. "Oh it looks like this year a human is going to win! Are these two lovebirds going to win the 5,000 stars? Yes? NO? MAYBE? Well, as of now, they're blowing us all away!"
"Whoa, Whoa, slow down there fellas. We aren't losing just yet." The spotlight fell on a man in a white suit and a top hat. "The night is young, my friends." He had his fingers intertwined with a young lady's, and she was in a dress that matched his suit.
The crowd went wild, it seemed like this man had a few fans of his own.
"It's Casper Rhythm himself." A girl shrieked.
Another one suddenly declared her undying love for him. "He's won the queen's dance competitions five cycles in a row!"
The next voice belonged to a man. "Oh, oh, and isn't that Leena Brightstar? Celery, that lucky dog!"
Someone from the crowd snickered. "Well, that human and Anna are dead meat now."
"You betcha! The one and only Casper and Leena are here to astound you once more." He lifted his top hat off his head and tossed it into the screaming crowd. "The competition is far from over." The man threw out his hands "You two, we challenge you to a dance off."
Everything went silent and Leena Brightstar smiled. "For Mr. Cuddle's tarts and the 5,000 stars. Oh, and to make matters more interesting, if you somehow manage to beat us, we'll give you an extra 1,000 stars." There was no mistaking the arrogance in her voice. Leena curtsied at the crowd them spun around in place. The entire place was filled with cheers, whoever these two were, they seemed to be a big deal.
"Well, what do you two say? Is it a deal or will you give up?" The couple started laughing.
Anna grew as red as an apple and she balled both her hands into fists. "We're taking your challenge! Just because you've won five cycles in a row doesn't mean we won't wipe the floor with you now." She wrapped her fingers around Ran's hand and lifted it into the air. "This man right here, well, he's a dancing genius!"
The other couples cleared the dance floor. This would be a battle between the two dancing stars and Anna and Ran.
"Well, well, it looks like a dance off between the best of the best is about to happen." The speakers roared to life. "Best of luck!" And with that, the jellyfish above turned all sorts of colors and a giant disco ball descended. One spotlight was on Ran and Anna and the other was now on Casper and Leena. An electronic beat filled the room and it was clear that the time for slow dancing had ended.
"Yeaaayeahh!" Casper leaned back then let his arms hang loosely by his side. The man moved around like a puppet, suddenly hunching forward only to jolt up and swing his hands forward in a robot-like motion. Casper moonwalked across the dance floor only to suddenly hunch over like a toy that had ran out of batteries. He swung a limp hand in Leena's direction.
Leena did the same, ending with a hand thrown out in Casper's direction. He reached for her hand, pulled her close then dipped her, her head mere centimeters away from the ground. Then Casper pulled her up, he moved his hands to her waist and Leena leaped into the air, arms thrown to the side as if she were an airplane and feet pointed. He lifted her above his head before tossing her into the air. "Gotcha!" Leena landed safely in his arms and the spotlight above them flickered off.
It was Ran's and Anna's turn now.

Thanks, and that's totally fine, Aki :D
Also, I don't think you have to worry about being ninja'd Kei-chan. Haha, Kimchi was the last person who posted for the wardrobe scene and MUG is gonna wait for you and the kraken, so no worries (^w^)b.
Edit: Posted ^^! OTL that turned out longer than originally planned. It was fun though, but haha, I don't know how to describe dances.
Hopefully the dance scene turned out okay, haha.
Hall of doors group, I'll move you along tomorrow. And wardrobe group. Kathi-chan and Kei-chan will wrap up your scenes :D as soon as that's done you guys will leave Marti's room and will be free to break up and join other groups.

I didn't notice that, haha. Sure, go ahead, that would be appreciated :D.
*Pat pat* Feel better soon Kei-chan :/. Pfft, don't worry about posting, and go get some rest.
Announcements:
Okay, I just caught up with the posts. I would like to bring something up and add stuff to what Kei-chan has brought up.
Guys, remember, RPing is a give and take thing. It's harder when you're with less people, but please try to do more than react in your posts. Recently, a couple of you have been taking portions from the last person's post, putting it into yours then reacting to that. I mean, that's fine from time to time, but too much and it becomes redundant and a chore to read. Aside from that, It also makes it a bit harder for the next person to write something up. Recently, there's been more of this than necessary.
Remember, for each post you make, be sure you leave something new for the next person to go off on.
I'm gonna give Ryver a clap for this one. Ran is alone with a Nobody, but despite that her posts have been progressive. She managed to move stuff along without waiting for me and she's given me a lot to work with on the dance floor scene. If she wanted to, she could have ended it with Ran accepting Anna's offer, but she went ahead and started the dance ^^ I really appreciate this, it makes things a lot more enjoyable for everyone and it makes our jobs easier as well.
@ People at Hall of Doors:
Thank you for the assistance. Do not be afraid to move things forward and open your own doors.
@ People at Martini's Room:
Guys, recently you've been doing more reacting than interacting. I love how you guys have been getting in some back and forth stuff, but I think the posts have been unnecessarily bulky due to all the reacting lately. Also, please try to include the guides.
Though @ the guides: You'll have to reach out too. I'm not going to interfere so yeah, it'll be up to the four of you to resolve the wardrobe scene. So, you four, I want to see some interaction between everyone. Is everything clear?
Oh ^^ and this is just a friendly reminder. You're all cool people and I love you all to bits, but yeah, from time to time we're gonna have to discuss stuff. If I slip up or anything, or you feel the three of us are doing something wrong :) then you're free to shoot a friendly reminder at us as well. Suggestions or complaints ^^ if you feel that something can be improved then shoot them at us *fist pump* Let's all do our best (^w^)/! And announcements aside, I'm getting started on a post.
Hall of doors group, I'll move you guys along tomorrow since my last move-along-post happened yesterday ^^

Pssh, nah, we can totally kick titan butt. Nah *sobs* Thunder and I got destroyed really badly.
Thanks Ryver (^w^)/ and yeah, I don't have any of my guides with you, but you should probably wait for Kei-chan and Kathi-chan to get something up. They'll handle your move-along-posts while you guys are together.
Hmm, Aura Kingdom looks really good :D. I might try downloading it later today. Thanks for the recommendations, MUG.
Do any of you guys play Drakensang or Runescape? Both are free and play on the browser, it could make for some monster slaying fun times. Haha, we'll be like the lost souls, starting out fresh with classes and whatnot. Dead Frontier is a pretty interesting MMORPG as well, it involves zombies and teaming up to survive. Kei-chan and Kathi-chan play it too, but it's been sometime since we last checked it out.
Have you guys seen any movies lately? I saw this recently and haha, it was kinda cute~

Morris Guild:
"Eh?" He made a face at Aria, "what are you talking about? This stuff is educational." Lucien's eyes flitted back to the tiny caterpillar. "If these little fellas keep climbing into glasses they're gonna get all gobbled up, yeah? Might as well break it to them while they're still in one piece, or else they're gonna rest in pieces." He rested his chin on the counter and narrowed his eyes at the small caterpillar. "Omnomnom! You wouldn't want that pal, so trust me and stick to gardens or something, yeah?"
He lifted the tiny caterpillar by its tail then followed Aria to the flowerpot. Now the little guy could be with his kind in safety.
Wait, wait, did someone just say their son was missing. Lucien looked right and left, his focus switching from the billboard to the purple-haired lady who somehow knew both the boss and Estelle. Her son was missing too? And she felt the circus had something to do with it...?
Did he run away and become a clown or something? The summoner jolted upright and listened with much interest.
“We’ll do it!!”
Xan nodded in agreement. If there were missing people out there who needed help, then there was no way they weren't going to do anything about it. It felt like Los Paraisos all over again, the thought made her angry. Whoever was leading this thing, well, the Pride would make them pay.
The metallurgist watched as their leader strode to the counter, all businesslike and serious.
Estelle's sense of duty and justice was something she couldn't help but admire. But then Estelle asked about the toilets and Xan couldn't help but arch an eyebrow. Well...that was a mood breaker, and it hadn't been what she was expecting either.
Syed started them off with good questions and Xan made her way towards the electricity mage with a nod of the head. "Visiting them during open hours sounds like a good idea, and I have a few questions of my own as well." She turned to face lady, "did the disappearances start occurring after the circus came to town? And by any chance, do the missing people have anything in common? Hmm, maybe they're all linked to the circus?" If that were the case, then something smelled very fishy.
Best of luck with your classes ^^ and haha nice pizza gif!
Edit: Ohhhh, it's a rotating gif set. I thought you changed it all the time xD
If no one minds, I'll call the next post.
