Hmm... I guess that's an option. Would be easier if it weren't for timezones making things difficult, or other RL stuff. At least things seem a bit easier on weekends, but...

I know what you mean. The summer we did the AU arc, I was working so often that I was barely here for two hours a day. I seriously considered quitting, but I realized how much I would miss everyone, and I decided to stick it out. And I'm so glad I did.

Whatever you need to reduce your stress, we will strive to work at. I promise.

OK...

It's become clear to me that I am a massive jerk.

I lash out at people when they're already depressed, can't take non-positive feedback at all, and misconstrue people's words and intentions to cause unnecessary drama. I almost caused DS to leave.

So while this is probably the fifth time I've tried this, I feel it would be best if I left myself. Before I become yet another monster plaguing the meta.

I'm not sure if I'll wrap anything up. I might cause more drama in the process. So it's probably best if I leave before I make more of you hate me.

So... bye. Don't feel like you need to stay in touch.

To everybody: times are tough right now, everybody is feeling terrible. This is no emotional state to make permanent decisions in; try to keep each other's backs. We need to build each other up, not leave everybody and ourselves alone through mass withdrawal. It only feels like the right choice due to panic.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

[up][up] Umbra, please don't leave. You have a lot of interesting ideas that I really wanted to see.

Sigh... I'm sorry if I ruined anyone's day, guys.

Umbra, do not leave.

Everyone is stressed right now. Leaving is not the answer. What we need to learn to do is ask each other for help, not shut ourselves off.

DS: Well, I won't say my day isn't ruined, but it's not your fault. My day is ruined because I woke up to find my friend hurting, and I was too late to do anything to prevent it.

-hugs everybody-

And yeah, Umbra, please don't leave...you recognize your failings and work to correct them, which makes you a good person in my eyes.

Okay, I broke the "not being here" promise just a few minutes ago, and at first I was... kind of disappointed, actually. Disappointed... as well as worried. I'd said I wanted something to return to once I made my return-for-real, and it didn't look very promising.

But then I read the chat log. And it seems things are finally stable again. Thank you.

Now, I'd like to make a request so I don't feel the need to do this again.

The past few days have been very stressful for all of us, I know. First we kicked Tropeless, then DS almost left, then Umbra almost left. Each only added to the stress, even when each was meant as an attempt to relieve stress. So, if anything similar happens in the future, I'd like to ask that nobody attempt to leave or do anything similar. We all make bad decisions when we're in a bad mood - I've done more than my share - and I guarantee that you will regret it once everything does calm down. Just take a minute to breathe.

I probably will drop in one more time tomorrow just to be sure... but then I'll truly see you in a month.

Here's to hoping everything works out.

Goodbye.

[up][up] Well... If you get rid of the time travelling train, and tone down a few aspects of your character... Then maybe.

[up] He's rolling a new character, DS. :P

Though yeah, it's probably best you wait a bit before trying anything "out there" this time. And if you do want to, ALWAYS bring it up with us first. It'll help a lot.

Also, read this , please.

Okay, we've discussed it a bit, but we haven't come to a decision on it yet: What we're doing for Halloween, if we're doing something.

From what I've gotten, this is what we have so far:

The current ideas are this and this

And there was some debate about moving whatever we're doing to the weekend when more people are available.

Should we try and come to a decision on some of this?

Ori: If I actually stop being lazy and get back to playing this:

Please, Please Do not hit on my characters.

There's a limit to how much of that I can take, and last time you kinda pushed it.

Welcome back Ori. Pent has some of your stuff in storage if you want to pick it up. tongue

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

I approve of the Ghostbuster horror-comedy idea!

Pffft, you guys, how over-the-top can plots be? Is there a limit? I want to get more involved in this RP, but can't come up with a plot without doubting if it's acceptable. All of my ideas are too linear, hehe.

I mentioned this in chat, but I'll post it here for discussion: My plot idea would involve Carol getting stuck somewhere remote, after traveling there. Due to a (possibly supernatural) happening, she's trapped and has to figure out how to escape.

Need some help with the details and such. Any ideas are appreciated.

Hmmm...

Let's start with places. Orre could be a good/bad place to get stuck in, but if you want someplace less inhabited, there are noncanon places like Shadedrake Island and GLORIOUS FIRUZLAND.
