Echonet Gaige is hilarious, hah! I enjoy writing multiple characters as well since it keeps off the monotony of having to deal with the same, single personality for an extended period of time. So long as a cast is manageable, that's about as far as my limit goes on that hahaha!
Re: frequency, thanks for answering. :) Whatever's most convenient for you, I'm sure it'll fit right into my schedule too. I'll pretty much post whenever I'm free to and not pressured with anything, but I won't rush you by any means. ^^ I'm not looking for anything set in stone re: posting frequency, but it's generally the first thing I ask about whenever I join a new RP so I know what to expect. (Some people are like, "Oh yeah we post like four times a day! Get on our level!" and others don't even monitor it, meaning some folks post like once a month when everyone else posts every other day...? e.e)
Getting swamped sucks, hopefully things are lightening up on your end!
Just let me know what you're up to plot-wise so far and I can help pitch in some random ideas and whatnot as well to help solidify the whole thing before we get started (again, whenever is convenient for you). If you'd like me to help with baddies/major villains, I don't mind taking control of them either. ^^
I'm pretty easy to reach since I check my subscriptions and PMs haphazardly throughout the day on my phone. I've got skype as well, though I'm not extremely active on it, but if it's easier to chat/contact you there, I don't mind exchanging info for that. :)
Btw, what's your time zone? I'm PST, so it's currently 5:29pm for me right now.

Are you still open? Because I'm definitely interested lol. I've been craving a Borderlands RP for a while. :)
I don't tend to write just for romance, though I don't mind it as a side to the main plot. I'm glad you've listed that as something unnecessary because.. it seems that every RP in the 1x1 section is looking for romance lol. Zer0's my favorite, but I wouldn't mind playing Kreig considering I (mildly) ship Krieg x Maya as well :P haha. I don't mind using OCs/other canon characters if you're looking to play more than one character!
I'm curious about your expected posting frequency though? I'm a fulltime student myself with a job as well, though my classes don't start until October 2. I can manage a post a day (as I currently am doing for my other RP), though I especially don't mind something a little more lax. ^^ I'm willing to go whatever your pace is as long as it's not something ridonkulous like multiple times a day - which you seem too sensible for considering that hahaha. I don't mind taking weeks off if necessary as you've said, since I'll need breaks myself when it comes to essays/exams time.
I just need more long-lasting RPs and not ones that'd drop within a couple of weeks. :)
I've subscribed to this lol, but feel free to PM me as well!

Bro surprised me with a ticket for a concert tomorrow night: Linkin Park, 30 Seconds to Mars, and AFI. :D Bands I was crazy over during my middle school years, haha. It'll be a blast. Anyway, idk what time I'll be posting tomo, but I for sure will post whether it's after I return from work midday or after I return from the concert. Errands around the home have been mostly taken care of so I'll likely return to midday posting schedule with time changes here and there. Should be all right ^^
Left an opening in the big top group for Estelle/Aria(/Lucien) to do whatever they want, whether it's discuss Crispin's plan before taking off, or trying to sneak around the stiltmen and/or regroup with the others... whatever you guys want. :) Re: when the actual performance starts, I'll actually let the characters decide when to go in and get seated after regrouping and discussing whatever needs to be discussed. I don't want to rush right into it but I also don't want to stall it any later than I need to. XD I hope that makes sense! I'm rolling by whatever feels most natural.

Phillis Circus: Big Top
Trixie held her breath throughout their brief time seeing Guinevere, and she let it all out with a huge huff once they backed out. That was... quite something else. "Is this something adults like to do by themselves or something? I hear Ames talk to herself sometimes, buuuuut..."
"Nah," Crispin shrugged off Trixie's curiosity as he peered into another room. He motioned for the others to follow him, quickly but quietly. Where he was leading them, there appeared to be no voices. "I'm pretty sure it's just Guin. Pretty sure." Lucien joked about bringing his own summons to the tea party or something, though Crispin decided against asking what on Ddaear he could possibly mean by that. Did he... did he want to die?
"Are you sure you know where you're going?" Aria giggled from the back.
From up front Crispin rolled his eyes, though he tried to keep his tone level. "Sure, sure, I know, just give me a sec, yeah?" Another curtain opened, revealing yet another relatively long hallway with one other exit. The firebreather bit his lip. "Every exit we've passed by so far has been inaccessible. Redhead's right - getting caught right now would end extremely badly for all of us. Particularly me. But I mean that for all of us."
"So what's your plan? You got cut off, earlier." Estelle followed up. The group pressed forward into the hallway, closing in on the opposite end. Crispin could only pray it was an exit untaken.
"The plan? Right, the plan. Lessee if this works first." Reaching the end, Crispin stood to the side of the curtain. He covered his face with one hand, and with the other, he reached around to tug it back slightly. Trixie walked up to peer out of it, but Crispin shoved her to the side so he could peek outside himself. With his head outside, he took a deep breath through his nose before popping back in. As before, he closed the curtain promptly and turned to the group. "Nice to have some air for once. Try being in this rut for longer than a few hours and I guarantee you'll want to strangle yourself. Anyway! The plan."
Crispin clasped his hands together, looking outside a second time before speaking again. "I'd go along with you and find a way to break out of here, but it looks like one of the other unlucky folks managed to sneak out from under their radar. No doubt now it's one of tonight's stars." He flicked a thumb towards himself with a grin. "I'm the other one."
"Yeah yeah," Trixie yawned loudly, twirling a finger around one of her pigtails. "Who cares about that, what's the actual plan?"
"Hey, I'm getting to it! Geez, hard to please, arentcha?" Crispin barked back. He sighed and looked back to the others. "Anyway I'm already at the prime of their suspect list. If I leave too, they'll for sure hunt me down and - probably do illegal things to me. Like dress me up funny and then castrate me. Illegal things. I don't know how far the other star will get tonight before she gets caught - or even gets away. It'll piss off everyone if she's not back in time for the show, but they're too desperate for funds to call it off if one person gets away.
"Now, I don't think most of the others around here who are stuck like me are fighters. These performers... they're too strong for any one person to take on. Have you seen Abram? He can choke you to death with his fingers. And Bella? Her stare is like a knife to the chest already. I wouldn't dare trying to start something up by myself." Crispin grinned wider, biting his lower lip for only a moment. "And that's why I'm not doing things alone.
"I take it you're... guilders, right? Or mercenaries? Hired help? You four alone would be great, but if there's seriously even more of you out there"--Crispin was starting to get excited, now motioning even more wildly with his hands--"then you guys could stick around for the big show and help me pull something off. When it's time for my solo, I can start a super crispy rebellion and set things on fire. It'll freak out the audience and the others who've been holed up here for gods know how long - but you guys can help me fight off the others before we all make our escape. How's that sound?"
Lucien nodded at every sentence of detail. "Yeah yeah, that sounds about good. Although - there'll be a lot of people in the audience, I'm sure."
Crispin shrugged unevenly. "Talk to your other friends about making sure the audience members and other peeps who'll be escaping get out okay. Okay?"
"How do you know it'll work?" Trixie popped up with her hand raised.
"Uhhh. I don't. I'm hoping you guys will make it work. Please?" The firebreather suddenly flinched. He leaned to the side, to look over the group's shoulders at the curtain far behind them. Still closed. "Nuts! Someone's coming this way. Now's your time to get out, I'll keep them occupied." Crispin maneuvered behind the others despite whatever protests they had and began to shove them out of the exit curtain collectively. "I'm counting on you guys to help make this work. Please, please! If this doesn't work, I'm so so so dead. Along with everyone else stuck here in my position. Please!"
He pushed out Trixie last before 'slamming' the curtains shut behind them. "Oooh, hey Max! Just got done checking this section, haha. Uhh, nooo star here, have you checked the other room........"
It wasn't long before Crispin's voice became inaudible entirely. The group of four were left alone now outside the big tent, in a secured area fenced off from the guests. A few other tents hid them from view, though a quick peer around them would reveal that their location was facing the pathway with tents scattered on both sides - including the fortune teller's tent.
However, before they could decide to move on, not one but two stiltmen came wandering by high above the staff-only tent tops that surrounded the four guilders, including one that Moira's group had ran into. Rather than resume scouting out questionable activities within the premisses, the two met up with one another and began discussing something from a height too far for the guilders to hear. (Hint: really geeky things that had nothing to do with the circus or their patrol.)
Got so much stuff I need to take care of at home before I head off to work. @.@ I'll post as soon as I get home ^^. If anyone wants to or is able to post before me, feel free! I haven't read Pacman's posts yet but I'll see about whether or not I post for that group as well hehe.

Phillis Circus: Big Top - Long Corridor
Estelle had fallen down. Estelle had hit Max freakin' Powers of all people and then fell. down. But... Max wasn't doing anything? Huh? And the girls didn't look like clowns anymore? Huh? And there were... two more of them hiding in the shelves? Huh?
Oh man, maybe this was a rescue squad. Pretty neat! He had absolutely no clue whatsoever about what was going on or how Max couldn't see them, but leaving the hot redhead (and the other two whoevers) on the ground like that wouldn't do them any good. With Aria's help, Crispin pulled the three up without bumping into Max a second time and, once they snuck passed the human cannonball, Crispin yanked on Aria's and Estelle's wrists as he charged to the end. Trixie held onto Estelle's other hand, while Lucien the prankster's.
As they charged towards the exit Crispin had directed the two formerly clowned girls, they were met with an incoming blond girl. Luckily she was super spaced out for whatever reason as she walked towards them - or at least that's how Crispin knew she was like - so the firebreather slammed the curtain and took the guilders into the next room over.
It hit him then. Wait, didn't that robed guy wave at him earlier? Did he recognize him or something...?
Oh. Oh! That lovely black fringe, the runt's pigtails, a sharp grin - and sexy red hair that could only belong to a heart which burns with a passion as fiery as his...!
If Crispin stared any longer as wordlessly as he had been, he was sure to receive another slap to the face in an instant. And possibly fall that much more in love with her. The firebreather shook his head to snap out of it.
"You guys were the ones at Los Paraisos, weren'tcha? You must have a knack for finding kidnapped people... seriously." He clasped his hands together and lowered his head. "I cannot thank you enough for coming all this way to help me out. Help us out. Unfortunately," his hands dropped, "the main show starts soon, ya see. If someone's already missing and I go poofin after you guys, that'll stir up more drama than it needs to right now. I may actually be castrated this time and"--he shivered--"that's not really something that's on my bucket list."
But Aria had dragged him along with them, slowing down their progress, before Estelle made the mistake of waltzing right into Max and risking their detection even further. So now with more people coming to the Big Top, they probably had to hide. Hide long enough to avoid everyone else searching for their missing star... and hopefully not thinking Crispin is behind anything.
"But you guys... you're guilders too. You deal with this stuff. Help me help you help me while we're still safe!"
Lucien stepped in. "So let's talk plans then, yeah?"
Crispin nodded. "Yeah, sounds good. How many of you are there?"
Trixie began counting fingers but gave up once she ran out. "A lot."
"Not all here, then. Uhhh. Okay. How about this: while the others are busied up searching for--"
Voices arose from just outside their curtain a second time - likely more performers entering the Big Top. Crispin grunted before taking off into the next partioned room behind him, motioning for the others to follow them. But as they pressed further down, there were more and more voices behind other curtains. Crispin continued to lead the room away from occupied room to the best of his ability. By the time it sounded relatively safe, they had traveled far from the exit the firebreather initially directed them.
He took a deep breath, tugging at his pink collar to allow some air to brush against his sweaty throat. "It's getting stuffy here. Hang on a sec, another exit should be around this corner somewhere. Might be better for us to catch a solid breath. If we're lucky, no one's comin in that way, so..." Crispin scratched the top of his cap. "If only I could remember where it was. There's one by here, I swear."
The firebreather peered through the curtain directly behind him, which had a large albeit unnoticed "KEEP OUT!" sign that kept the curtained door pinned to the fabric wall. But that didn't stop him from checking it out anyway.
Crispin huffed. "...well, this ain't the exit." Upon realizing this, Crispin promptly stepped back out of the room and poked into the next curtain.
Meanwhile, outside the circus' "shrine"... with Lute having fallen over and Moira tumbling down in succession, the duo began to stir up more noise than was at all necessary. A circus worker - a magician stepped away from his workplace by the shooting range, to be replaced by a clowned-up coworker.
As Cammie weaved his way through the building crowd, he of course overheard some unfamiliar voices from beyond the fenced off region. Lo and behold, there were four strangers hanging around an employees-only area - and especially that one tent that absolutely no one but the ringmasters themselves were allowed into. To make matters worse, this group wasn't even dressed in any proper attire! They looked like common guests, snooping around for gods know what.
Nani's so cute omg <3 Welcome to the RP, Aki!! Glad to have you aboard! (get it cuz nani's a pirate) Hope you enjoy your stay :D
<33
Good luck with your webs, Buns!!
I'll post later today to give Kei & Pacman a chance to post haha. Not sure I'll post tomorrow since that's when I fly back to the colonies states, plus I'll probably be disoriented and in tears even if I have time to post at the airport. @.@
