The sun is shining, the birds are singing, there's a few white fluffy clouds in the sky. I am closing the curtains and going back to bed.

Bio
I live somewhere in the wilds of East London with a couple of friends, a pet rat and a collection of RPG books that is slowly consuming our house. I've suggested possibly getting rid of some of them, but it's pretty much got to the point where the books are the only thing keeping the building upright and if I move any of them the whole thing could come crashing down.
In terms of games - well, I'll consider anything, except that. As can probably be gathered from my posts, I find myself generally playing characters that let me bit a little bit light-hearted. I am reasonably certain that I can play serious characters, but I know that getting to post things which makes me chuckle as I write them keeps me far more engaged. I like fandom-y things (because I can't, apparently, still get enough Undertale, Adventure Time and various Nintendo stuff, good job brain), and non-fandom-y things, and will one day get around to rebooting a RP I'd made on here seven years ago.
I've been here, just waiting on approval or advice on changes to my character sheet before posting in the Characters section.
Same here - I am super ready to get things going. Well, perhaps not super ready, on account of me posting this from a tablet, in my pyjamas, prior to going to bed. But after a good eight hours of sleep, I will be back to being super ready.
Yes, my apologies. I was planning to post today, so I'll make sure not to dawdle.
Team One is (mostly) on the move, yay! I'll get a post up tomorrow. I live in a bizarro world where Sunday is crazy hectic and busy, while Mondays are quiet days with plenty of time to do silly things online.
Also, @Holy Soldier, I'd like to reserve King Graham from the King's Quest series as my second character.
I'm thinking about a second character again. Seeing as we're off to rescue a world in the Atlus-verse, I'm thinking of a Prinny from the Disgaea games. Give it the Scarf from the "Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?" so it doesn't blow up the first time it gets thrown, and it might even be close to a workable character concept, dood!
because I am assuming as both the captain and 80% of the tables voting base I will be the one with the final say in what we do in the end, so we actually leave the restaurant at some point(@Hylozoist please correct me if i am wrong on this) and will be doing so after everyone has a post about the news letter.
One of the responsibilities of wearing the Captain's Hat(s) is being the one with the final say; while I think it'd be awfully nice to make sure everyone - or most of everyone - is on board for any given course of action, the Captain(s) is (are) the one(s) with the final say. If it just so happens that the Captain wants X and everyone else wants Y one too many times, I can dust off the folder entitled "ISF: Mutiny Aboard The Quest For Flavour!" and see how it plays out.
Apologies for the double post, but I've managed to make a post with ten minutes to spare. I have a second part to the post planned, but it's more of a "Meanwhile, On The Far End Of The Galaxy..." thing that mostly explains a throwaway comment, and so can wait until later on.
Hope everyone is having a good day, and I've really enjoyed reading what people have done so far! Now back to work.
Walter stood by the booth with all the patience of a well-trained waiter or, at least, a robot designed to stand still while people argued about orders. If Walter could feel pleasantly surprised by the lack of arguments about who would have what, Walter would surely do so. Walter would also feel concerned about his lack of ability to feel pleasantly surprised, but fortunately the Manager hadn't forked out the extra credits required for an artificial intelligence capable of such introspection.
"So that's a full rack of ribs, honey braised, with sweet 'tater fries on the side, a triple kids size ribs, a large fries on the side, a mixed salad, the Venusian Sour Spheres Special, four bowls of, ah, honey, a medium ribs, small side of corn, regular fries, a mug of Neat Wake-Up Juice, one honey ribs, one buffalo sauce ribs, one barbecue sauce, two pitchers of Headless Nugg-Slurry..."
Flashing lights underneath a clear plastic panel began to blink and, from somewhere deep within the chassis of Walter, the quiet, tell-tale sound of two out-of-date computers making a data-handshake beeped out. If the blinking lights and beeping noises were any indication, there was a fairly intense communication going on between Walter and another robot.
"...thank you for your custom, your food will be ready in-" beep, beep, beep "-six minutes and four seconds. Please enjoy a complimentary copy of our Space Friends Newsletter and our endless ice-cream dispenser. Today's special flavour is," beep, beep, beep, "meat. Your cred-card has been charged. If you would like to amend your order, please do not hesitate to flag down myself or one of my fellow waiters."
A freshly printed Space Friends Newsletter began to print out from a device lodged into the chest of Walter. Some of the older Walter-Waiter robots had a rear-mounted printer, which made children giggle, but didn't test particularly well with adults in the focus groups. With a flourish of an arm, Walter lays the still warm newsletter down on the table between the group. It's a single page, printed out in a font that looks suspiciously like Comic Sans. With nothing left to do, Walter skates over to the next booth, and begins to take yet more orders.
SPACE ACTION IN ORBIT OF NAVIM By Wirt Rex, ISF Correspondent Wreckage rains down on the population of Navim III tonight as the final remnants of the New Navim Liberation Front fleet were engaged by a naval fleet aligned to the local government. Members of the Interplanetary Space Friends fought on both sides of the conflict, and conducted themselves with all the dignity and good natured cheer one could hope for in a war that has claimed millions of lives so far. During a press conference, Marshal Nami Tesserai III of the loyalists spoke candidly about the work of the Interplanetary Space Friends, praising their "fanatical dedication" and "reckless disregard for the rules of war", openly shedding tears of joy while relating the actions of a handful of unnamed ISF members aboard the NLF Deliverance, a medical ship rescuing stranded escape pods.
"It was a bloody great battle," reports ISF member Gunhappy Saint Anne, "like, something you'd see in one of those films. Part of me is hoping this was the final battle that'll break the backs of whoever it was we were fighting, but, honestly, Wirt? There's a part of me that hopes they try and fight back again. Shout out to the rest of the crew! Pork Warriors forever!"
NEW FLAVOURS TRIALLED IN SCARA REGION A Henderson's Ribs manager has been catapulted into the limelight this week following the discovery of two new flavours. Due to confidentiality agreements and a stern warning from our legal team, we are unable to commit to print details of these new flavours, but our intrepid reporters on the scene have managed to get a few words with overjoyed customers. Of the twenty four people interviewed, the majority described the flavours as "curious", "interesting" and "blinding". We're urging anyone in the Scara Region ("Visit Scara, it won't scar ya!" - Scara Tourist Board) to pop in, try out the new flavour, and write in. If we print your letter or obituary, you or your next of kin could win a trip to the Henderson's Ribs Processing Facility for the Scara Region.
