More dramaaaaaaaaaaa~
... And now everyone's gonna question if Akitsugu's actually a cross-dresser.
Am I the only one who wants to keep Qaymu in his miniature form and carry him around like a plush?
... Well, no... Not that drama.
The other drama.
Dramaaaaaaaaaa~
*Leans back in chair with a bag of popcorn*
Well, we'll just have to try to handle things better in the future, on both ends then. If you wish to discuss this futher, @Remram, feel free to send me a PM, but otherwise, I feel that this discussion won't really go anywhere or really solve anything. What's done is done, let's just try and move on to more pleasant and fun things.

Like the neurotic farmer girl having a cool new pet. And Macintosh teaching little girls how to be graverobbers pillagers adventurers... *cough*

Might alos want to remind everyone; Unless your chaeracter had a big ol' hearty breakfast before coming to the town, or had lunch/a snack just before arriving, you might be getting a bit peckish at this point - as it's now around 4:00 PM, whereas previously it was around 10~11 AM.

EDIT:


@Rune_Alchemist
Also, Ms. Clucky is a stupidly cute nickname. I highly approve.
@Remram
I understand people being busy and having lives outside of the forum. I even mentioned this both in my previous post - and several ones I've made before that one - as well as the first post of this OOC; under the rules hider. I also explicitly stated that you're under no obligation to tell me what's going in your lives - I have noything to do with taht and have neither right or reason to, unless you yourselves tell me about it. However, I genuinely don't believe, for a single second, that people are so busy that they can't log on for 2 minutes of a 24 hour day, 16 if you account for 8 hours of sleep a day, in 7 days of a week, to post a simple:

"I'm gonna be late on posting this week."

That's all I want. That's all I need. I'm not psychic, as @ERode mentioned. If you don't tell me anything, I'm going to have to assume or gues, and going by past experiences of doing this hobby for over two decades, my experience tells me that people:

A) Have lost interest and aren't paying attention anymore.

B) Are being lazy.

Again, you never need to tell me why or give a reason or feel like yuu need to explain yourselves to me - unless you want to. I get it, RL stuff happens. It happens to me too. It has happened to me in this very RP at least twice. But I try to at least mention and kee you people posted and notified when it does.

If you're waiting on another person to post before you do, let me know that too. Because otherwise, again as ERode says, as a GM, I can only sit and stare at my OOC and IC and frown while thinking: Welp, guess everyone got sick of it.

And yes, if you're travelling abroad or visitng releatives who live out in the sticks and don't have access to the internet, I get it. You can't do this then. But hey, look at that! You informed me, ahead of time, that you're going to be away. And now I know.

Clarification: I'm not angry or upset with anyone, and I'm not trying to chide or chastise you or yell at you. I'm asking that, in the future, please try and do this so that I know, and so that I can move and operate the RP in accordance with that information. I honestly appreciate all of you taking the time to be a part of this roleplay and engaging in it, and I want to keep doing that, but when I don't know who is still around or when/if there'll be any response to anything, things can just stall out and hit a brick walll of never-ending "I'm waiting on him who's waiting on me"-scenario.
Due to the severe lack of posts this week, I won't be posting an update today. I'd also like to remind everyone that - apart from Rune-Alchemist who posted today (which is very last minute) - the rest of you haven't mentioned or stated any reason or notice about being late for this round. Which, of course, means that anyone who hasn't said anything and hasn't posted in the IC will get a warning

I've said it before and I've mentioned in the first post of the OOC; If you're busy with RL or personal matters, I'm more than happy to give you more time to post or hold off on advancing things, but you need to tell me about it. I get that sometimes we feel unmotivated, tired or like we don't wanna bother with things, but taking 2 minutes of one of your days from a whole week to log on and leave a message here or via PPM to isn't too much to ask I feel. You don't have to go into detail or justify why you need more time, just a note that you'll be late or something of that sort would do just fine.

I want to be a reasonable and fair GM who treats my players with basic understanding and patience. But taht can only happen if you talk to me. Whenever I have to make a post like this, I feel like I'm being a stingy, bitter old bastard who's cawing at people for being late and making them feel like I'm some heeartless, soulless machine, when that isn't the case or what I want to project at all. :(

So, in conclsuion, please, for both our sakes, don't feel like you can't ask for more time in the future if you need it. I guarantee I won't turn down a request to post later for whatever reason.
Don’t worry, the other nicknames will be worse. I promise.

... Is it Drucilla?
There, finally. Sorry for the wait.
If I missed having Miyuki respond to someone or something, please let me know. I've still got a splitting headache form lack of sleep, but I didn't want to hold the rest of uou up.
Miyuki no Suzuyami


Location: Umra Rose Condos, Bldg #1, Cafeteria
Time of Day: Late Evening
Relevant Cast: @CitrusArms Yumeiko, @Lemons Velvet, @Massasauga Rebecca, @Eviledd1984 Sam & Azir


And then, off they went... With a simple apology as if it were no big deal. The weird... Man-thing-creature who had knocked over the table and ground the curry even further into the floor, and his big, lumpy, brutihs-looking ... Friend(?), were now running out of the cafeteria, seemingly more interested in hunting these devillish little imps more than the possibly ramifications and consequences of their actions. Oh well... They'll get theirs....

Back to more important matters, like the complete lack fo yum-yium's in Miyuki's tum-tum, an opportunity had presented itself. The foul-smelling... Woman(?) has - for whatever divinely incomprehensible reason - offered to leave the condos, go out into the human world, purchase food with ther own funds and then bring it back adn deliver it to the fox-pair Such a rare display of altruistic and compassionate samaritan behavior... What was she playing at...? Everyone whod' been alive for any modest amount of time knew there was no such thing as a free meal, and yet, here this (stinky) person was, offering two complete strangers who she'd never talked to or even met before in her life, to go buy them dinner for no apparent reason. Straight out of the blue. Without asking for anything in return. Suspiscious.

Sadly, her blue-eyed (both figuratively and litteraly) better half had already jumped at the opportunity. Perhaps she was thinking that procuring a meal as soon as possible would queel the growing unrest within the black fox... Which wasn't untrue, but not exactly cautious or calculated iether. If there was one thing Miyuki knew from her interactions with humanity, it was that owing someone a favor could be quite troublesome. However, there were two very, very important facts to consider:

First; She was still very damned hungry.

Second; She didn't have a rotten cent to pay for her own, outside-world-food. Curse you, capitlaism, or whatever! It's your fault!

Thus, albeit she was hesitant, reluctant, wary and every fiber of her rational thinky logic-brain was screaming at her nto to accept this silver plattered devil's deal, her stomach out-shouted her sense of reason.

Yumi was curious if there was somewhere that could serve the food of their homlenad, but.... Honestly? At this point? After the day she'd had and the things she'd been forced to endure?

"... I would be fine with anything palatable at this point." Miyuki's voice was - as before - dry and monotone. It seemed she was still putting effort into not... Y'know, exploding and taking everything and everyone around her down with her potential meltdown. Admirable, for someone like her.

The neck-biting bimbo person had offered to go along with the foul-smelling one. Another attempt at placating the fox for the morning's misdeeds? Or perhaps she just enjoyed the smell of rank sewage and bloated corpse-dung...? Or, perhaps she was just looking for another snack... Whatever, as long as wasn't a part of Miyuki's vicinity for a good, long while, the kyuubi couldn't care less where the little runt went off to. The warning from the stanky lady about the cafeteria not being safe made the black-haired asian lady raise a quizzical eyebrow.

Oh heez, you THINK!? Thanks, I couldn't have figured that out myself.

Luckily, none of inner thoughts leaked out or showed on her face. Other than the aforementioned eyebrow. Which gave he rmore of a "Eh?"-look than anything.

"I shall... Return to our room, then. You have fun hunting though, Yumi." Miyuki said, her voice a bit less dry and less mechanical than before. "I'm not sure how... Gentle... I'd be able to handle our little miscreants before I eat." She added, eyes briefly flashing dangerously with the tingling threat of lightning.

She also gave Rebecca the floor and room - along with a polite but reserved thank you - number of the pair's dwelling. Just to be sure that the food got delivered where it needed to go, you understand. With that, the elder fox finally began to slowly make her way out of the cafeteria... Which now more resembled the aftermath of a middle school food-fight battlefield, than respectable establishment to quietly dine with refined table manners...
