The Internet: Where people with no balls can resort to trolling people anonymously so they don't get their asses kicked.

A friend of mine once told me that 'it's only ego if you can't back it up'. Too many people like to confuse confidence for arrogance -- there's a big difference.

Not to get all psychological, but some people are actually just 'wired' to take things people say literally. I'm like that to an extent, but I've learned that people here are usually just shitposting.

Happy Anniversary, Ailyn. Six years ago, you gave me a kindred soul, and brought light into a life which for all intents and purposes had been mostly nothing but darkness.

Valentine's Day's bittersweet when you've endured a long-distance relationship for over five years. Here's to celebrating the strength of a meaningful bond, instead of taking a shallow and easy path.

This bio will get reconstructed once I've left the site for good. I'll be collecting my data in the background for now, and sorting some loose ends. I'll be on and off to do it, so don't think I'm back if you see me around. Once I've dealt with everything, I'll log out properly and remove my 'ghost' status, and that'll be the last this site sees of me. This community is in serious need of growing up, and I'm not the least bit surprised that role-plays die here so frequently.

The 'Grim Reaper's Gambit' role-play is likely to reboot elsewhere eventually. The role-play will have some modifications, so contact me if you're curious since the original project won't accurately explain everything. There's no determined date for it to happen yet, since I've got other priorities and I'm not investing a lot of time in it until enough of the people interested have free time to properly commit (lack of dedication on the part of some players practically destroyed the previous version; it's very apparent it would've died even if I hadn't decided to leave). There's a group that're quite interested, but most of them are busy.

Anyway, come back later for an update later -- or don't; it's your life.

Contact Details

Tell me who you are or I possibly won't accept the request, since I assume most requests are bots.
Yes, people who I rarely/never spoke to - or who never met me - while I was still here are welcome.
No, those who disrespected me (and aren't sorry) while I was here or are trolls/immature in general aren't welcome.
Also, keep in mind that not all of these are currently being used actively, so friend request replies might be delayed on some of them.

Playstation Network (PSN): Shoryu_Magami
(I'm fairly easy to contact through here, though I'm not really gaming much due to my main project's workload.)

Discord: Shoryu Magami#4323
(Unlike Skype, I primarily text chat on this instead of voice chat. It's currently one of the easiest ways to find me. It causes my PC a lot of problems though.)

Skype: solitaryangel1983
(Usually running on my phone, mostly so I can talk to my fiancΓ©, so it's easy to find me here. I've currently got no access to it on PC. It might take a while to see requests.)

Facebook: James Koutsoukis - Shoryu Magami
(Barely ever on this, but it exists. Mostly exists so @Ailyn Evensen can list me as her fiancΓ©. You'll find me easily on messenger if you add me, but I don't do much else.)

Yahoo IM: shoryu_magami
(Does this even still exist anymore? It used to be my main method of text chat, but it's not on my current PC.)

"The souls that God has given us, our spirits.
Our spirits, which found a way to swim through the immense network and live in the infinity of space.
Is not the human body a mere shell, a form of existence all too small and weak for consciousness with such vast reach and potential?"
Dr. Londes (Cowboy Bebop)

"When you're in the darkness, you only sink deeper into it. Keep the light shining."
Kenzo Tenma (Naoki Urasawa's Monster)

"But you must always remember that the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
Alucard (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)

"If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.
Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever."
Sarah Mohr (The Crow)

"Is there an indelible line dividing sanity from insanity, or do they change, one into the other, at the slightest turn of events?
We'll find out, soon enough, that the world itself is insane."
Vincent Volaju (Cowboy Bebop: The Movie)

"It's not the result of one's life that's important.
It's the day-to-day concerns, the personal victories, and the celebration of life... and love.
It's enough if people are able to experience the joy that each day can bring."
Terra Branford (Final Fantasy VI)

Cheers for letting me know. I might respond to @tsukune then, given how we've got a bit of a back and forth going right now and since our one isn't a collaboration I imagine we need more posts in order to make up a similar amount of content to what you guys end up putting together. I'm imagining that I'll likely sync up the time of day with all groups in the 'GM post' I do. I'm just working out one other detail before settling on a decision.
@Snagglepuss89

Probably, yeah. At the very least, it means I'll be able to use the exact scene I had in mind instead of a modified one.

Given how you and @Aewin are both online, I'll wait to see if you settle on doing the collaboration before committing to responding to tsukune's post right now. I should probably merge Leonard's post with the NPC post if you're planning on posting sometime soon.

Until I know what everyone's doing, I'll keep trying to solve my formatting issues and Leonard's portrait picture. I'm also making preparations for the inevitable appearance of this NPC.
@Snagglepuss89

It won't really matter. The way I plan to have them show up can adapt to whatever you're currently doing, though this character is planning to go inside the cafΓ© temporarily if that helps. I suppose go under the assumption they're coming into the cafΓ©, as opposed to coming out of it.
@Ryalin

This particular avatar has been edited once, so you're not imagining that at least. It went from greyscale to colour. The avatar I had prior to that was basically changed out once I revealed that it was being used for one of the NPCs in my role-play (though the current avatar I'm using is still that same character).
I've woken up with a pretty nasty migraine (even by my standards), and my PC is in a particularly asshole mood today, so I guess just be aware of that. Under these circumstances, it's entirely possible I'll need to disappear for a few days soon just so I can severely speed up the PC organizing process and make things cooperate a bit more. I'll do my best to keep everyone up to date.

@Pudding

As stated in the PM I sent you in follow up to the one I promised, I'll be able to assist. I know this is your first 'Advanced' tag role-play and for some people that can be intimidating, but I really think this tag/forum is more about dedication than it is writing level (since those with dedication tend to improve anyway), so don't let it pressure you too much -- I don't have a problem helping out with the transition.

@Ailyn Evensen

Said it over PM too, but I hope you sleep well. Hopefully you'll stop being sick sooner than later.

@tsukune

I'm unfamiliar with the term 'purple prose', despite two of you mentioning it now. That being said, shorter posts are more or less to be expected during dialogue, unless the role-player tends to delve very heavily into the mentality and internal thought processes of their character (like I do, but will obviously need to do less often than usual to avoid spoiling things too early).

Good reply though. I'll work out my own response when I can. When we're in the estate or in a bigger group there'll need to be a bit more structure to our posting order, but for now it's sort of meaningless so long as anyone that's part of a group waits for each member of their party before posting again. Like I mentioned on Skype, I fixed up that issue with the music. Your post also made me realize I neglected to mention what's in Leonard's sandwich -- normally I don't miss details like this, so it goes to show how fatigued and unfocused my PC's making me lately.

As for the escort, I'm fine with people taking it or not, since it's not like the game begins the instant someone steps onto that soil. They do all need to reach the estate before April 14 ends though.
>Waking up.

I know I said it yesterday, but Happy New Year everyone (even though it's the 2nd now for me).

Yo.

She was more like Ailyn's character in terms of physical appearance though, and was pretty much stuck in a wheelchair.
