We Are Our Avatars (Discussion)

Some of the lines are still not breaking right and I have no idea why.

Repost because pagetopper:

Lemur Man (to the tune of 'Piano Man')

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
the usual players come online
Most of them living actually far away
But luckily their connection is fine

They say: Dude can you come up with Arc for us?
We’re not really sure how that goes
It should be sad, kinda sweet and hopefully complete
And better without danmaku hos

Write us a plot you’re the Lemur Man, write us a plot, tonight
well we're all in the mood for a story now and you've got Oz’ feeling alright

Now Rai, a young Nerd, is a friend of mine
he gets avatars for free
And he's quick with a joke, a really cool bloke
There’s almost no place that he'd rather be

He says: Lem I believe you are kidding me
as a smile formed there on his face
Well I'm sure that you could be a author star
Once you will get out of this place

Now Sun is a promising newbie here
Who often has time to roleplay
And she's chatting with Awesome, whose skills will soon blossom
And probably those two will stay

And then Mimi is going to lecture us
as Hilarity slowly gets stoned
Yes they're letting characters interact
Since that’s better than playing alone

Write us a plot you’re the Lemur Man, write us a plot, tonight
well we're all in the mood for a story now and you've got Oz’ feeling alright

‘twas a pretty empty thread for a Saturday
Then the Sapphire he gives me a smile
'cause he knows that it's me they've been waiting to see
To finally get some Plot for a while

And then Gamzee brings us the dark carnival
Cue some bad puns coming from Chuck
I say “listen up, lot! Now I’m having a plot!”
And Wren says he’ll soon read Homestuck

Write us a plot you’re the Lemur Man, write us a plot, tonight
well we're all in the mood for a story now and you've got Oz’ feeling alright

Right, I see the paragraphs...Either you forgot to have two \\'s at the end of the second-to-last-sentence, forgot to use the enter key, or you had two \\'s at the end of the last sentence.

It'd be like...lemme see...

You know what, Chuck? The whole thing is going straight onto my Contributor's page. Just because.

FFFFF- that still does not work right.

Naturally, he uses the line about him as an example.

I admit, I'm not great at explaining, and yeah, it is ridiculously easy to mess up...I sometimes have to redo that paragraph thing several times.

Hey, it was the very first one that was screwed up.

You noticed that you forgot me? What a bro!

Ah, found it. I had a space behind the Fucked-Up lines.

Also, try to come up with a rhyme for 'Awesome' on a whim.

Awesome/blossom works perfectly in my mind.

...Apart fromm Foursome? Uh...yeah...hard to think of a rhyme.

Opossum works.

Also, just want to get this out of the way in case anyone brings this up. Whitney doesn't know she's in a fictional work or anything overly meta like that. She uses the terms she does (like "plot") because she has trouble describing things otherwise. Hopefully it's not annoying.

Say, if Claire annoying? If he is, tell me.

"And she's chatting with Awesome, who's still an Oppossum"? Nah.

"And she's chatting with Awesome, who'll soon have a fourso-..."? OH GOD THAT'S EVEN WORSE.

I've been going with the view Whitney was just that obsessed with writing that she's taken to using the terminology to describe real life things and events.

Ahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa.

@Rai: Ah, good. That's exactly what I was going for.

@GG Chuck: Oh lawd.

Whitney just comes off to me as a wannabe writer type, the kind who looks at things and tries to figure out how they'd work in a story. So she's not too meta. She's not calling everyone "characters" or anything really.

@Chuck: Sorry...I'll try harder.

Yeah, Whitney's kinda like Yomiko Readman in terms of how her love of writing's kinda altered her mentality a bit.

...And Yomiko Readman was, in fact, where I got the idea for a "wordmancer".

Also I forgot if Gina even has a way to contact Ba'al and what it is, hence stalling.

Sorry.

She's chatting with Awesome, just as love blossoms.

Yeah I thought about that but I didn't want to be so blatant. :P

No problem.

@Ozbourne: ...actually, I don't think she does. :|

Oh, but she's still got the Wind Crystal as a symbol of a Guardian. She can use that.

I somehow misread "Love" as "Len", like you were referring to me or something
