Am I the only person who thinks it's totally inappropriate IC action for someone's character to take another character who has come to them asking about magic lessons, grab them, put them on their lap and start stroking their cheek? Please tell me I'm not. Please.

EDIT: The person doing this is the same one from my last post, with a new character. I just...every single thing they do has this creepy sort of "Get in my car and sit on my lap, little girl, I have candy!" vibe.

I'm pretty sure Billy has lightning powers. If he had lightening powers, he would possess the ability to make things weigh less (or possibly become less dark).

Also, it's Dumbledore, not Dumbledoor. The clue would have been in the username, and in the way it was spelt correctly in the opening post and in every comment in reply to yours.

*the perennial your/you're, then/than etc rants go here*

Hello, you lovely, lovely, ranting people. God, it's been good to go through logs here and see people suffer and bitch and moan about the same sort of stuff that gets me down.

So you're ever-so-lucky to have me regale you with my own whining. Go you.

I'd sock this, but the circumstances are too particular so they'd likely be recognised regardless. If I'm caught... fuckit. Might be funny. Thus, without further ado...

RL ATE ME BUUUT I HAS FOR YOU BRAND-NEW PENNANTS FROM LAST WEEK~

( MEANWHILE IN GRIMMJOW TERRITORY..... )

THIS WEEK'S ONE IS COMING UP NEXT WEEK?. HAPPY THANKSGIVING Y'ALL.

...Did I ever mentioned I'm really into like...a ton of video games now? Current obsession is the Devil May Cry series as I think I mentioned before, which is so much fun. Such ridiculous characters. *shakes head* Nice to finally give this stuff a try, though.

Anyways, on more important notes, I'm trying to come up with a better name for my new account. It's hard to think of anything though, especially since I'm not really sure if it should be fandom-oriented/casual/meaningful/whatever pops into my mind. I'll get back to you guys on that, though.

On the (not-so) brightside, my best friend's going to drag me out to New Moon tomorrow. Lord help me and all the fangirls present. I'm not concerned about slipping up and letting them know I'm only there for the cheese and general WTFery, but I'm worried my laughter might hurt their feelings. I may not like it, but I don't want to ruin anyone else's experience. >>'

If your post comes with the OoC comment "I know this is going to get me in trouble for breaking the rules, but..."

... Why did you post it anyway?

POST YOURS!

AND YOU THOUGHT ASHISOGI JIZO WAS CUTE? IF YOU SAW LAST WEEK'S BLEACH, YOU'LL BE EATING YOUR WORDS, FOR SHOTA NO KOTOWARI WERE ADORABLE AND THEY DID MOLEST UKETAKE WHO SAID SOMETHING VERY WRONG, AT LEAST ACCORDING TO HQ. YORUICHI TURNED UP AND KENPACHI RAN AROUND A LOT AND MET GONRYOMARU AND HIS PET OGRE. KAZEFUCKINGSHINI WAS DEADED BY ICHIGO, YAMAMOTO SAT IN A GIANT QUALITY STREET TRIANGLE AND BURNED STUFF, AND SHUNSUI TRIED TO FLIRT WITH HIS ZAN AND GOT KNEED IN RETURN. OR DID HE? LET'S FIND OUT.

( ONWARD )

NEXT WEEK: KENPACHI IS STILL FIGHTING TENKEN. BURNINATION WITH BELLS ON, TOO.
OMAKE: EVERYONE'S FAVOURITED BIG-TITTED FRUITCAKE APPEARS, WITH CHAD IN TOW AND AN ARRAY OF BIZARRE OUTFITS, INCLUDING GOKU'S GI AND A BUNNY OUTFIT. SHE ASKS HIM WHICH ONE SHE'D LOOK GOOD FIGHTING IN. AMAZINGLY, CHAD DOES NOT SAY "THE BUNNY ONE", AND NOT JUST BECAUSE CHAD DOESN'T DO THE WHOLE TALKING THING. THEN ISHIDA TURNS UP AND IS AS CAMP AS A ROW OF PINK SPARKLY TENTS.

You're lovely and all, one of the nicest people I've met through roleplaying, but it kind of amazes me how right after I sort of made it clear that my character wouldn't be into something long term with your character or anyone else for that matter, you've stopped replying to our thread, but have been replying non-stop to the thread with the character yours is supposed to hook up with. I get you wanting a romantic relationship for your kid (even though it seems like it's the ONLY thing you want for any of your characters, but to each his own I suppose), but come on. It's just kind of douchey to simply stop replying to what's not important for that plot, isn't it? At least tell me you're not feeling the scene anymore, I'd be okay with that. But not even that much? It's a bit shit.

Seriously, I don't mind playing second fiddle to another person's hero story. Honestly, I don't. Sometimes it's fun just to be a sidekick and to see where another person is going.

But if you're going to do that, you at least need to make room for those sidekicks in your story. It can't be all The Baddest Badass Ever show, it has to be The Baddest Badass Ever and Friends. And even that gets tiring after awhile. Although in your case, it's more that you keep rambling about these elaborate plans you have and how it's going to be the best storyline ever only for things to be rather... predictable and boring.

Similarly, please learn to take a joke OOC. We all make snide comments about each other's characters, because it's a funny way to highlight their weaknesses. Your badass dude isn't the greatest at social situations - c'mon, his Charisma is, what, 3? - so of course we're going to joke about him being not-so-charming. One joke is not cause to flip out, especially when we are clearly joking about the character. An hour-long bout of peevishness and obvious grudginess today because you "took it personally" because your characters are "part of yourself" is not called for.

And seriously? All of our characters are, what, level 2? I realize that play-by-post and game mechanics don't mesh too well, but we already agreed (since this is a Fallout-based game) that no characters are Vault Dweller badasses who can just come in and tear shit up. We're all Wastelanders, which means that sure, our characters might get powerful, but that'll be at level 20, not at level 2. I can swallow unrealistic shit like ~*yellow eyes*~ which make your character ~*so mysterious*~ (because hey, I'm not exactly playing the most realistic character ever with my lolferalchild guy - the fact that he can even somewhat participate in society is totally unrealistic)... but come on, the level system's there for a reason.

P.S. To another person: if you want to hear whispered conversations from 2 rooms away perfectly clearly, perhaps consider not having a Perception stat of 2.

SEEING AS IT'S ALMOST 8 A.M. MY TIME, AND I'M ARIZONA, THEN IT'S ALREADY WAY PAST 8 A.M. EST.

TACO AIZEN, ANYONE?

( TACO AIZEN, FTW )

BUSY TIMES ARE BUSY, SO NOT WAITING FOR RC THIS WEEK. ONCE THEIR (MUCH NICER) CAPS COME OUT, IF SOMEONE WOULD BE KIND ENOUGH TO POST A LINK IN THE COMMENTS, THAT WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED! :)

OTHERWISE, HERE'S A LOAD OF NOT-SO-FUNNY, EXCEPT FOR THE MOST AWESOME OMAKE:

( HERE )

Look. It's very well and good that you have some grasp on psychology. That's grand. It's a useful subject. But your character cannot.

Why? Well, in the setting, in the country he was born in, no one has the slightest clue what it is. Insanity is put down to things like possession, clones, duplicates, impostors, mind-control poisons, and that sort of thing. Considering as all of these things actually do happen in this setting, our medics understandably haven't bothered with developing it too much since it works out to be a physical cause anyway. And because they have no concept of it.

None. At all.

So your character, he is not going to wander off to another country and run back with notepapers exclaiming that he found the secret of insanity and establish the branch entirely on his own for several reasons.

1) It would require a great deal of proof, for starters, for anyone born and raised in your character's country to even accept that there could be medical causes, since medicine is physical damage as far as they're concerned.
2) He would have to actually care enough to ask about something he already thinks he knows.
3) He would have to be able to care and figure out enough to explain the concept to his countrymen. Who also wouldn't be too willing to listen, or care, because again, they think they know already.

Now I'm not saying it can't happen eventually (that's what we have medical research potential for, after all), just for the love of god, don't come back with Psych 101 in a book overnight. And if you do, expect them to call your character nuts.

( Dear prospective players )

(tl;dr: Please: (1) Acknowledge the plot even if you don't try to advance it, (2) have your characters to something (anything!) and (3) interact with each other.)

You accommodating hopeful GM and friend.

You. Yes, you, the dickhead in the dressing room.

Yes, I get that this isn't a formal game, and that it's pretty much free range. I also get that your character is a sadistic bastard who's in the mood to drain and/or kill whoever he comes across. I gave you free range to do whatever you wanted to my character except kill him. You seemed fine with that.

So why the hell did I go to reply to our thread and find that you'd deleted the entire thing?! And not the entire post, just our thread. If you were getting bored, you could have told me or even just dropped the thing. But that was my writing you deleted too, which pushes you straight into dickhead status.

Growls and hisses,
Me
