Our avatars are posting on a forum thread.

Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

It's a famous sci-fi franchise that started with a television series and spawned a series of successful television series, movies, and other media.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mina_ashido_family_guy_11_26_22.png

It's one of my favorite franchises. By the way, we're probably gonna go to sleep in a bit. We have more interviews and other errands tomorrow, so we need to get enough rest. Good night guys!

From what I’ve heard, those statements are accurate. Never really liked Star Trek though. Why watch scifi when I can just hop back in time and live it?

And about all the other text colours, they’re gone now. There were just too many people using this, so we cut it down to just us three, the other duo, and a few others.

I wonder if any of you have any fossils? If you do I’d be interested in what they’re fossils of.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marnie_pokemon_family_guy_10_7_22.png

Just woke up as well. We're having breakfast of Lucky Charms cereal and blueberry yogurt. I have yet another interview in 80 minutes. How is everyone's morning going? Any plans for today? EDIT: Turns out the "interview" was just a text document with some questions I was able to easily answer. Later this afternoon we're probably gonna go visit an amusement park for some rollercoaster fun.

That's great to hear. How are you gonna take him down though? He still has that rope you know. I'd suggest going with the stealthy route and going for a surprise attack when he isn't looking.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mina_ashido_family_guy_11_26_22.png

It's been really quiet today. We're currently at the amusement park. It was quite fun, and we rode a lot of the rollercoasters here.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/momo_yaoyorozu_swimming_in_the_ocean_7_25_23.png

Ugh, I don't think I should have gone on the rollercoaster that's upside down 75% of the time. I feel really nauseous. How is everyone's afternoon? Any plans for dinner and tonight? Soon we're gonna have a dinner of spicy salmon and California roll sushi, after I feel better and much less likely to throw up.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

I really don't get why you get sick from these rides. I personally don't find anything wrong with them, even the more intense ones.

Hey all, how is everyone's afternoon going? Right now the rest of the girls and I are at the library preparing for some difficult exams next week. It's quite stressful. And it has been very quiet here lately and it's been driving me nuts.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marnie_pokemon_family_guy_10_7_22.png

Me too.[up]You guys are that small? From your profile images I wouldn't have guessed that you guys were small at all.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

Perspectives, I guess. Anyway, I'm really hoping that we can get more conversations going today. Is there any interesting things you guys have been up to today? We're gonna to a Halloween parade later this afternoon and buy some interesting souvenirs.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marnie_pokemon_family_guy_10_7_22.png

Same here. We just arrived at the parade, by the way. We even were able to buy some delicious ice cream!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

Do you guys have any plans for this weekend? We're gonna be going to the movie theater to watch a screening of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Us three are about 30 cm long, so probably 15 cm tall?

I’ve never checked, but that definitely sounds right.

   As for us…we’re actually around the same size.   

Are you sure? Because you certainly look bigger.

I've been wondering what sizes the Tamagotchis actually are. I haven't seen them in a while, and I miss them.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marnie_pokemon_family_guy_10_7_22.png

I think they're busy setting up their Halloween decorations. We've been doing that too at your house, Mina.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

Yeah. Sometimes there are days people are too busy. It happens to all of us.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/momo_yaoyorozu_swimming_in_the_ocean_7_25_23.png

Still, they're a wonderful presence here. I really enjoy being able to converse with them in interesting conversations. They're one of the reasons this place is so lively at times.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mina_ashido_family_guy_11_26_22.png

We just got back from the parade and we're now having an exquisite dinner of pumpkin pie and roasted steak at Momo's house. How is everyone's evening going? Do you guys also have any plans for dinner tonight?

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mina_ashido_family_guy_11_26_22.png

I'm hoping that all the Pokemon he captured get released. Otherwise it will be a "Shaggy Dog" Story all over again. No one likes a story where it seems like there will be progress only for all of that to be undone, making the whole progress pointless.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

I mean, how does that magic rope even work? What causes it to have that brainwashing effect? What type of magic is it even and how does it get inserted into the rope? I'm so confused by this.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marnie_pokemon_family_guy_10_7_22.png

We're probably gonna play some card games tonight before going to sleep. It's something we haven't done in a while and I want to see if I'm still good at them.

I'm glad all of you guys have been saved. I'm just wondering, doesn't that candle guy need to be locked in a maximum security prison cell? Just so he doesn't break out and try to brainwash anymore people with his magical rope.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mina_ashido_family_guy_11_26_22.png

Yeah, I'm kind of worried that he might return to cause more harm if he's not put into prison.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pokemon_iris_punk_rock_outfit_8_13_12.png

Yeah, I've read that Batman puts a lot of his enemies in Arkham Asylum rather than prison and that's how they manage to escape so many times.
