The OOC Thread

[Agent Proto]

Formy, I have Ziad at that Inn where Locke is at, so I have planned for them to meet soon.

[Formalhaut]

I said earlier that feel free to have my characters interact with yours whenever. You don't need my permission, go for it! I work with the story.

i mean, if there's a specific thing you wanted to ask me, ask away, but my character can be used whenever. Just don't kill him, of course.

[Lonely Paper Star]

I sort of maybe got bored and made a table in Araciel's thread of where everyone currently is.

I'll update it every few RP posts or so.

[Sephiroth]

I'm out of the story.

[Kossage]

I would be posting more often but I've been waiting for Kassage to post again as they were the one who thought of the Ceiling Cat, but they never described what it was like and I didnt want to step on any toes by taking that from them. But its been almost a week so I may have to.

It's Kossage. Kassage makes me think of funny things in Finnish related to my job.

I've been very busy this past week, so I've yet to catch up on the story and continue the plot on my characters' end. Anyway, feel free to continue the story on your end and describe the Ceiling Cat any way you deem fit; you're not stepping on any toes as far as I'm concerned, and I'll happily adapt to others' writings. This is a collaborative effort, after all. Heck, you might even end up running into Nargul while he's getting drunk in good (?) company.

I mainly introduced the Ceiling Cat in the first place because I wanted to have a sly reference to why Nargul wouldn't want to go to the Quiet Lobster (a reference to a Sedorra hangout thread in this forum) as well as introduce another tavern where Nargul could do some funny stuff.

[Pant Leg Eater from the Bad World]

Honestly, I am having a really hard time keeping up with this. Just so you all know, I didn't forget. I've just been dealing with a lot of real life stuff this past couple weeks that has been getting in the way of everything.

I will try and get back into this. I just have to catch back up now.

[Loony BoB]

That's no worry, man. If you're around another player and having conversations with them and whatnot but won't be around to allow them to keep going, send them a message (or post in this thread) with a general idea of what you hope to happen with them if you are happy for others to just control your character over the short term.

[Loony BoB]

No worries. I still haven't played Damon or BoB in the RP, personally. Want to see how things go and find the right time for them to join in - Damon will probably join in sooner rather than later as a Lucrecian guard.

[Pumpkin]

Would someone mind taking over the cliffnotes for me please? I'm just not in a good spot for it right now

[Loony BoB]

C'mon everyone, let's not let this thing die too early! I think I may make a little addition to the rules stating that if the "owner" of a character who is rather central to things moving forward has not posted for a while then another player can take over the character until the "owner" returns. I just don't want this little beauty to stall too early on.

[Formalhaut]

University ends next week. I am posting, just with admittedly less frequency. Expect more Locke when that happens!

Shion, I do not mind taking over the cliff notes.

[Loony BoB]

Yeah, don't take my post as any kind of criticism for anyone being away - everyone has good reasons for being busy. It's more just a contingency plan we can all be aware of to ensure that the story can move onwards even while people are occupied elsewhere.

[Jiro]

Be careful not to step on any toes, though. It might be worth "taking over" to simply direct the flow elsewhere. Don't interact, per se. Just say "oh I'm busy" and move your own character elsewhere, so that nobody has additions to their character that they don't like.

[Formalhaut]

I agree. My character is currently engaging with Ziad/Agent Proto, and I'm just letting him run by character in whatever direction he sees fit. I just go with the flow.

Well, besides killing my character.

[Loony BoB]

Yeah, it's always best to do something to sideline a character rather than making them "your own" or someting. I find the easiest way is to come up with a notable distraction that could cause people to suddenly have to move in a different direction, away from the silent character.
