Ooh, this is super cool! My sheet will probably take me a while, unfortunately, but I love this world you've built!

fuckin SWEET

I'll probably end up transporting over a sheet from another DFRP that didn't work out, if that's alright. Basically what the official RPG calls a "focus mage"(?) from Spain who's being stalked by... something. Said something probably also caused the disappearance of his homewotn and everyone in it. Fun times! =P

Introduction? H-here you go!

Welcome to RPGuild, @Minute! Hopefully we'll be able to clean off all that rusty creative writing equipment you've got. And don't worry about being too busy; most of the RPs here tend to move pretty slowly (the last IC post on one I'm in was more than 2 weeks ago!), so just getting out one good post a week is usually enough, in my experience. Unless it says otherwise, of course.

Posted! Maria's getting into her role of group therapist/little sister pretty well, I think. Though that's not to say she's entirely innocent... =P

As the portal closed behind Berry and all the rest, Maria felt a mix of emotions swirl through her gut. There was fear for their safety, hope that they'd succeed in their mission, confidence that they'd be fine, even without her, and, of course, a bit of anxiety to the tune of "I should have gone with them, they need me." Maria took a deep breath and let it out slowly, evenly. They'd be fine. All of her friends were competent, good people. Even though she hadn't known them for very long, she had to believe that they would all come back just fine. And if they didn't... Well, let's just not think about that just yet. Maria bowed her head, offering up a plea to whatever nameless being still listened to Periphery that all her friends would come back hale and hearty.

The rustle of fabric and a slow, shaky not-sob drew her head up again. Someone was still here. There was still someone around, someone who it seemed needed her help. Before Maria could say something, the Queen turned around and asked her if she was alright, and whether she knew Maria from somewhere. Maria immediately came out with "That line's a bit cliche, my lady, don't you think?" She stifled the growing bubble of horror-shame-excitement, cleared her throat, and continued, more gently. "I'm fine, my lady, and I thank you for asking, but I think the real question is: are you all right? I thought I may have heard you crying just now, and..." Maria took a step forwards, placed her hand on the Queen's shoulder, and looked her in the eyes, smiling. "I know we've only just met, and we're just about utter strangers to each other, but please, tell me everything. It doesn't do to keep your emotions all bottled up like that, you know."

Yeah, that's more than enough actually! Thanks a bunch!

As for the grenades, I couldn't really see Maria with a sword; too sweet for that.

Moonfiend

Debated whether to have something happen, then remembered Maria doesn't have anything to fight with (yet? I think?) so we'll have to get on that! ;)

@Mokley

Actually, she picked up a bigass shield and a bunch of grenades from the armory. So she can fight, but in a way that's generally better if she's not the only one fighting. =P

Moonfiend

@Mokley Thanks a bunch for accommodating me like this! Hopefully I'll be able to make an actual post sometime (whether here or in Echo).

@Mokley Maria would definitely have stayed back with Queenie to, like, keep an eye on her and keep her company and offer her candy and so forth. I'd definitely appreciate it if you wrote something. NaNoWriMo is occupying most of my creativity right now. =<

Moonfiend

Also doing pretty well. Thinking of writing a post between Maria and Queenie, but not entirely sure what to put in it. I'll get back to you on that one. =P
