Happy locale-dependant, cosmopolitanity-aware, interpretational holiday of Dec 25 to everyone!
Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?Okay, so I read the logs, and apparently I have some explaining to do.
First: The timing.
I felt awful about posting that on Christmas, but due to meta issues, any time I posted it would be close to Christmas, and I have a lot of stuff to jam in before the 29th, all of which hang on that one event. There's one more post to make (after Tangent finishes his Mew thing) that will be somewhat of a downer, though much less than this, and then a few more light-hearted shenanigans before wrapping up the Effie bit. There's also sending off the Pokemon and Hecate, but I'll address that later.
Next: Crewe's reaction
Admittedly, this post was originally gonna be more heartwarming and more along par with the other releasings, but the thing just wrote itself. Also it was 10:30 after the whole thing had gotten deleted and I was starting over and I was tired and frustrated. But besides that, I suppose I should explain her actions.
Crewe was wallowing in her own self-pity while walking down the street, and all of a sudden she's confronted with the Pokemon that pretty much abandoned her without warning weeks ago. While normally she'd be happy to see them, all she could think about is how they left and her anger at this; she was also being influenced by Minerva, who has wanted all her Pokemon gone for some time: that's her whole bit. And on top if all that, she hadn't given any thought to being a Trainer since the Reveal, and hasn't actualy been in contact with any of her Pokemon for even longer than that.
Basically, they came upon her at the wrong time.
And yes, yes, it's wrong to take out your anger on others, yadda yadda yadda, but seriously, when you're angry, do you really think "I shouldn't take this out on others!"? She was freaking out, and pretty mentally unstable.
And finally, unless someone has another complaint, what to do with her mons:
Wolf volunteered to take them because he wants them to be together. I really don't care who takes them, besides Hecate. I have plans for Hecate, that will hopefully end up more heartwarming (becoming leader again, being with her adoptive children), than tear-jerking, though at least some of it will be mixed...
Anyway, I'd suggest taking it up with Wolf if you want any of the 'mons. For all intents of purposes, they're his.
Silent, about Roa: Do as you like. I honestly see her as more your character than mine; whatever you think is best, I'll go with.
Well, that's that. Unless someone else has any more complaints.
Also, please note: I'm not saying Crewe's reaction was right or good or anything like that; it was an awful thing to do, and the decision was rashly made. I'm just saying that it's more justifiable (for lack of a better word) than some made it out to be.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!. . . . . . Sweet Chaos, Crewe. I say chaos because I don't want to offend anyone by saying God.
I mean, I understand RP!Crewe's reaction, but. . . sheesh.
Anyways, Meddler would be happy to take in some of Crewe's Pokemon. Maybe they would go to her because she now has Qui-Gon or something?
A Supernatural fan girl and proud of it. "Forget regret, or life is yours to miss"-Mimi Marquez from RENTSorry, Meds, I'd rather not split them up (outside of the internal splitting up, where Katie's taking the younger 'mons, and Aurelia). If you had ideas for some of them, I might let you take them, I guess it depends who they are.
Either way, I can't talk about this right now, since I'm gone in under 10 minutes.

OK. For the record, I have since gotten the Mew thing to the "one post and she re-meets the group" stage, so probably that should happen after/during Crewe's Mindscape revisit. (Let me know what works best Crewe)
(Is Minerva kinda a representation of Crewe's mom's expectations?)
Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?Ok Crewe, thanks for the heads up.
As for mons, I have potential plans for Anakin, Empoleon or Nova, but I don't want to separate Nova from the group (neither does Wolf). None of the plans require them to actually be handed to me to handle so I'd rather Wolf keeps them. I'll ask him when the time is nice.
EDIT: Also thanks for letting me have Roa back, Crewe.

Fanfic Recs orwellianretcon'd: cutlocked for committee or for Google?Tangent: If we can do Crewe's Mindscape tomorrow morning/afternoon (I have a game at 5), that works fine. Wednesday's schedule is iffy, because it depends on whether we win or lose tomorrow. The 29th will likely be mostly packing.
Also, Tangent, if you're going to be finishing up with Mew, I'll do Effie's battle now.
Victory! Honor! Destiny! Mutton!Anyone have any suggestions for names for Veronica's (female) Ponyta and (male) Skarmory? Since I've decided to give her Musharna some screentime, I might as well give her other two Pokémon that have only been referenced off-screen screentime as well in Veronica's next appearance.
Also, on a matter unrelated to the RP, anyone have any suggestions for a nickname for a male Mienfoo?
Hello, people,
My name is Troper49, I have been checking out your WAAPT pages are quite some time. I had shown interest in creating a character to become part of the story on WAAPT. However, I had accidentally said that on the story arc thread, so they politely told me to discuss that in here. So, I can join. :|
Sure, we just need your character name, and list of mons.
We have a chatroom here
, and a Useful Notes Document here
in case you need it.

Same here.
