Signups.

RP thread.

Figured I would get this posted before posting the RP Thread, so here it is.

Ah, cool.

It's a shame that I probably won't be able to post for a while, since I'm going to Iceland for 5 days starting tomorrow.

I also realised that my charcter still needs a partner... I think.

Nice. So what's the level of familiarity between all our characters? This organization of ours (which I don't think has a name yet) must have been around for a while to have developed all the mech and AI technology, so I guess the support staff and partners might all know each other already, but are they only just now bringing in the pilots and introducing them to the A.I.s?

Nana is probably more known by reputation than fact.

The partners and pilots have already met or are just about to meet(depending on the situation this might be their first meeting or a later one), and it's likely the pilots know each other to some extent.

Dr. Suzuki should know the Partners very well by now, and I think it's likely that she's had her first meeting with even the newest Pilots. And obviously she's well acquainted with the support staff.

Nana probably doesn't say much to those outside of her immediate family, which is... umm... researcher (was it the head one? Can't remember, ack. >.<), maybe their spouse if they exist, and Ami.

Goal: get her to socialise. =P

I imagine Yosuke would have his own set of friends at his high school and might know some of the other pilots around his age if they go to the same school. Then Dave would probably at least have some professional relationship with the partners (and sort of a guardian/older brother role with his own copy), see Kazumi as more of a peer and coworker, and I'm guessing Dr. Suzuki would be his direct superior, maybe even kind of like a graduate school mentor if we decide to go that way.

I was thinking that I'd like it to be Carl's first day on the job, meeting the team and whatnot, but I'm flexible.

[up][up] Assuming they even interact much, it should be interesting to see how Dave and Carl react to each other, considering Dave is quite a bit away from that "uncouth cowboy American" stereotype.

[up]Also, it's almost like they'd have their own secret language cool

#14: Jun 28th 2012 at 6:34:36 PM

[up] Depends on how many of the Japanese characters are fluent in English I suppose wink. Yosuke might know a bit since I established English is his favorite school subject, but his would probably be quite limited compared to the native speakers. Also, don't forget there's technically two of Dave.

Kazumi speaks English just about as well as she did in the Eva RP. And Hanako... Only knows a few gratuitious English phrases at best.

Also yay, we're starting soon~

#16: Jun 28th 2012 at 6:48:46 PM

[up][up]Well, I was thinking of mainly the pilots and other humans. Wouldn't all the AI characters know English, or hell, every language? I'd assume someone installed the Rosetta Stone on their billion-dollar computer.tongue

[up]I wasn't in that Eva RP, (or know which Eva RP it is), so I'm only going by what I read in the sign-up thread. But I guess that means the three of them will have their own secret language?

Misaki knows no english.

Chie, on the other hand, has learned random gratuitous english from some anime she watches. And she often shouts it when the mecha attacks.

Partners know only the languages they were given as a base.

[up][up]Combat will know. Suffice to say, Kazumi's English... Isn't as good as she thinks it is.

#19: Jun 28th 2012 at 6:58:35 PM

[up][up] So wait... Dave's AI copy would only know one language? I had assumed he'd know at least some Japanese as well as English considering he's essentially an exact copy of Dave as a preteen.

And yes, Kazumi's English is quite amusing, to say the least. Dave is basically an Expy of my character in that Eva RP too, under a different name. Suffice to say, we'll make a good Bridge Bunny team grin.

... That's a good point.

Any remaining pilotless partners or partnerless pilots should work out who they want to be with.

Dave 2.0 is currently partnerless.

Also I would like Dave 2.0 to be fluent in English. And have we figured out if we're going to do any palette-swapping?

#25: Jun 29th 2012 at 7:32:26 AM

[up] Well like I said before, telling human and robot Dave apart is kind of moot for the purposes of this RP since one appears obviously older than the other at this point. Just giving him a different eye color on the character sheet is a small enough mistake that we could probably just gloss over it.

Anyway, yeah, looking forward to this thing starting today smile.
