Current I love those times when you've got a few really good, high-potential stories in the making and all you wanna do is write. It's like all my stars have aligned.

I also feel like the idea that there is now a hypothesised generational divide between people who used to 'RP' on IM and people who write good content on forums is pathetic. Why start this crap?

You could also have long-form stories over text, however complaining about long-form, detailed posts (as this began as), seems both ludicrous and worthy of IM.

Sometime it's less about writing some shitty slice-of-life RP in IM, and more about creating a coherent and valued story among like-minded people. Something you'd need an actual platform for.

I always forget how quiet it is here in the British mornings. Timezones are not our friend.

Happy to hear that we're close in time. Tomorrow I should be home from work after five PM, close to 5.30 or so. If you're around then, we can throw a collab together if you have time.


I finish at 6pm, closer to 7pm I'll be home. Factor in eating and other stuff I gotta get done, maybe 8-ish. I might be going to the cinemas though, which is really the main decider if I'm online or not. I'll try and let you know what's happening but RPG doesn't work on my mobile.

My time zone is Gmt+1, Sweden.


Wonderful, I'm GMT. I should be free tomorrow evening. If not I'll try and let you know. Either way if I don't respond I'm not online.

If we're ever on at the same time, we could write a collab together on a pad. I find conversations easiest to do that way.


Yeah, great idea. What time zone are you? I think the next post should be an interaction since Vail and Spook are in the Fort with Dar now.

Thank you, though I will admit that I never feel comfortable controlling other people's characters. I am okay with moving them to another location though if that it will progress the story, much like Vail was moved into the briefing room by someone who wasn't me, which is fine.

However, I will not take complete control over Spook in ways of a dialogue. I hope that's fine.


Yeah, that's fine. The option is still there if you are struggling to move the interactions along though.
Also, @Shard, I give you control over some minor actions and dialogue of Commander Spook under the condition that you write him how you think he would speak from what I have shared. Basically treat the character with respect and I don't mind you controlling him a little in your posts to keep the story flowing smoothly.
Sorry about being so absent, I was watching the new Star Wars film last night and just spent over three hours working on a post for another story. Apologies guys! I'll get working on this ASAP.
Well Cestus is all up for beating down baddies and taking shots for the ladies. BUT he also finds sleeping, and just staring at space while cooking and calmly delivering simple cargo fine.


Cestus' Tinder profile right there.
Posted. Let me know if it's alright.
