How's My Driving?

Hey Taxon, it is Friday, and we're kicking off the weekend with an HMD!

Please comment here with the names of the characters you play and others will reply with their feedback- and it's obviously a given that this feedback will be helpful, constructive and respectful. Also, as amazing as getting "OMG ILU!" comments is, it's nice to hear why and what we're doing right, just as much as criticism needs to be constructive. Participation is also entirely optional, and if you have any issues just let a mod know and we'll help out as much as we can. There is also a top comment for any questions, comments, crit, and compliments for the mods and the game itself.

Anonymous commenting is enabled and IP logging is off for your convenience should you require it!

Closing Applications: Because of a large upcoming plot (details this weekend!) followed by Keri going globetrotting again, we will not be processing apps from June 7 - July 21. If you've been planning on getting an app in, now's the time to do it!

Character: Gwen Raiden |

electro_girl
Canon: Angel
Notes: Ooh! I like this addition. I've been slow lately, I'm going through one of those rough patches. Thank you for everyone for being patient with me.

Character: Illyria |

blue_bird
Canon: Angel
Notes: I've been fighting for motivation regarding her. I love her, but I just feel in a funk and it's more of a chore writing her than not (Kat, I just looked down below and saw you used the same phrase for Party. Great minds and I swear I didn't copy! <3) So I'll say that I'm considering dropping her so that someone better can tackle her if I can't get any juices flowing but gah it makes me feel like such a failure. But here she is.

Character: Arya Stark |

thelonewolf
Canon: Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire
Notes: She's new, but I'd DEFINITELY appreciate (and the most nervous of) any initial feedback, if the intro post/threads are enough to go by so far.

Dropping Blue would make me sad but I would understand. Sometimes the spark just isn't there, you know? I'm not there with Spike but he's certainly, much less active for me than I would have thought he would be. Obviously I must go ride a motorcycle through a window or something.

I really like Arya! There should be more Arya poking things with swords. You seem to have her voice down tightly.

(Edit because I totally know what her name is...)

I jest, of course, I've totally done that stuff before. But to the point!

I have absolutely loved Illyria's interactions with Spike, and they're, hm, shall we say LESS HARD to write than others. Maybe it's because of their canon, it just comes naturally. But yeah, all in all, both plotting-wise and voice-wise I think I've lost something.

Also YES to Arya poking stuff. I'm also looking forward to the day she texts Spike when she needs something, remembering his offer. Idk when yet but that day will come. =)

I understand. There can be all of the fighting you'd ever want from him but I do understand.

HA HA! It will fantastic, I'm sure.

I want interactions between your pups and mine yes yes. Gwen and Long remain my favorite bizarre buddy thing ever, I just envision him politely requesting her company for dinner ever so often and Gwen amusedly accepting and then slightly sheepishly dressing up just a bit more than she might, as she did for the apology, IDK, it's the image I got.

BUT I WANT THE OTHER CHARS TOO SO STOP BEING SO BUSY and I'll stop being lame. Deal?

DEAL. Starting....SOON. =)

Gwen: Gwen and Scott still need to do this talking thing more. Maybe even in person.

Illyria: Throw Illyria at Raziel. It might be a delay of the inevitable, but it might also help to get things going again? Two ancient, immortal beings sharing time? Or brawling through buildings.

Arya: We have a thread to finish still, where Scott is attempting to keep her, since he seems to collect abandoned children to raise. I like Arya, though I don't know any of her canon to comment on otherwise.

Things are a bit slow, which I can live with, even though I sometimes pout about wanting to get more tags from you.

Gwen/Scott --> I'd really like them to have interactions in the midst of something. Their...philosophies are so different. The way Gwen sees it, he's the big ol' hero, fighting for the freaks and all that. She both admires it and thinks its silly, if that makes sense. As far as CR goes, it'd be interesting to explore.

And YES I've thought about it actually, in his recent post, but I guess my mindset HAS been well, I just don't feel like using her and I do feel like it's delaying the inevitable, I suppose. I didn't wanna start something I didn't think I could finish.

And yesss also at a certain point my Arya intro tags went into slow mode when things got busy. I like her being at the mansion, though, at least for a while. Because otherwise I'd probably have her living in the woods or something.

I'm sorry I've been so slow, and I'll try to do better!

Gwen can come for self defence and or personal training? I do plan on getting a post up for that with Scott before the next activity check.

The offer stands. I'm happy to have Raziel and her meet up, but there's no pressure.

Scott would rather she live in the house, yes. Because he would rather her not live in the woods, though if she starts that, she'll probably run into Remus sooner or later, since he goes hunting and gathering.

Slow during busy in understood and apology wholeheartedly accepted.

She wouldn't really seek that I don't think, at least in her mind/ego, she's pretty much all set. BUT that doesn't mean she wouldn't stop by anyway, for some fun and/or possibly mocking.

Thanks. =) I'll think on it a bit when things slow down (not Taxon things obviously, me-things).

I imagine she gets out quite a bit, sneaking around and whatnot because she's not used to staying in one place and being taken care of like that, and she wants to keep her sneakiness/training sharp. Which works out for me! Cause then I can have her meet mostly anyone.

Mocking is perfectly acceptable reason to stop by.

Me things are important and rl>rp, even if sometimes we wish otherwise.

It is a wonderful reason. So long as she comes home for food, Scott won't try and stop her wandering. Healthy childhood paranoia.

Oh I do adore your muses.

Gwen is so secretive and charming at the same time. Illyria makes me smile in her frustration. And Arya. Oh I adore that poor, sweet, adorable child. I want to pet her and protect her.

I would love to see more with them, definitely. And I admit, I would love to bug you for more with Gwen and Josef because it's entertaining.

I'd still like to see Gwen and Josef team up for something. Something nefarious. But even so, you're right, they've had a couple interactions and in no way is it enough or realistic for them to stop bugging each other! =D

This needs to be done! We must figure out something for them to do, glitch or otherwise. Without me so seeing them in a film noir glitch - and I have no idea why this was just in my head. Don't ask.

Nikola was rather attracted to Illyria, even if they did have a mutual dislike going on. I really enjoyed their tags.

But lack of motivation is a chore to work around. Something I definitely understand. <3
