I'm sorry I snapped at y'all yesterday. I was hormonal and tired and even though my point still stands, I should have said it nicer. I'm sorry.

You're totally cool.
I snap and be salty all the time.
Okay y'all. I can't keep playing in this rp without pointing out a huge issue everyone in here has: none of you play off each others' characters well at ALL. Most of you may as well be just writing your own little story all by yourself. The point of a roleplay is to write a story TOGETHER. But when hardly any of the characters interact in any meaningful way, there's no point. I don't mind driving the general plot, but y'all need to play off me. I had Erin open up about her heartache to Fiona and Fiona was just like "no i don't care about y'all i want to be by myself". You can't have characters just LEAVE the main roleplay direction. Now we basically have two RPs going on: the main group, and then Fiona and Darren off by themselves. Erin's mentioned SEVERAL times about her past and her 'job' and she obviously knows too much to be an average person yet NONE of the other characters have been like, "hey, wait, who are you even? Why are you telling us what to do?" Molly is only ever mad at everyone, and never suspicious or protective in any way that means anything (from what I know of her, Bucky, she shouldn't be letting Erin run the show since none of them know Erin). Right now, Claire is basically dead weight. She's free from Henry, she shouldn't be holding onto it so bad. She should be happy and excited to be free of him and to help the others. The only other interesting thing that's going on (even more interesting than Erin taking them to safety, honestly), is Apollyon. And more characters should be trying to help her out and figure out what's going on with her.
I'm not mad at any of y'all, I'm just trying to show you how bad this roleplay is right now. I've been seriously roleplaying for about eight years and I've been in some really, absolutely awesome RPs. And they're good because each person's characters play off the other characters. There HAS to be real, meaningful interaction, otherwise the story is just dead.I was super excited to get back into roleplaying on this website and Bucky wanted me to be here and all, but if this story isn't even doing anything, then I don't want to waste my time being here. I can't write this whole thing on my own, I need y'all to work with me.
(Is it bad that I'm proud that Apollyon's story is one of the interesting aspects? I dunno, I feel bad saying that.
(Also, App can ask Erin about her past and interact with Jessica more often. Dareon can teach Claire how to defend herself. He's learned a lot from being on the run. Also, we can also just have a dialogue scene at night while they're camping out for a rest… just an idea.)
Yoos I could go with that!
More floooooooooofy :3
(Flooooooof! lol)
Yaaaayay! :3
I just think it would help a lot and it would seem so much more natural if they all talked a lot and just got stuff out and got to know each other better. I get the feeling none of them actually know each other very well XD
No… Probably not….
(No, they definitely do not.)
(So, what do you think about the camp scene idea Pickles.)
I love it! I think it's a great start for us to get some friendships and stuff going between out characters.
Yeah. Considering Claire is just keeping all sorts of emotions and stuff to herself… Which I should change…
….nerp.

I figured…
But… I'm just wondering about… Stuff..
group
What?
I dunno.
I just…. I have no idea really what I'm doing right now.
group
Yeah, you and Lisa are waiting for Whisp. :P She'll be on tomorrow. Sworry
Well yeah.
I'm hoping that it'll be less one on one moments sometimes and more cohesion with all characters, but not so much as to get lumpy and confusing.
group
Wellllll…. Sorry bout that too. It'll be better when Whisp is on tomorrow
Yup…. I'm sure it will be.
group
Darren is making me so happy ^^ He'll be perfect for this adventure.
(Yep! He's an adorable bean!)
Yay! :3
