STATE OF THE UNION/DROP MEME because doing it sorted some stuff out for me /o/
ALBERT
IC: Mostly okay! Had his big confrontation thing with Abel re: Dietrich's maze; got some sense beaten into him re: when withholding information actually protects someone and when it doesn't. Beat back in turn. Also he got laid around the new year, which helped his, uh, more personal frustrations a lot. He is getting really bored, though-outside his own smallish circle he can't do a lot of the organizational/planning stuff he's used to, and it is driving him mad how rusty he has gotten. He can be very useful for BIG OL' THREATS that need planning for, but Camp doesn't get many of those.
OOC: Also okay. I like where I have him, I think he still has places to go and people to meet and such. I always worry he can be boring for other folks to thread off of because he can be so deadpan, but have been assured that THIS IS NOT THE CASE!!!
Plans: Orden planning stuff. Talk to Esther more. Get him out more and talking to new people in general, or revive some old relationships that faded because I dropped the ball at jumping other folks. Get him nosy and aware of things. ...do more hilarious stuff with Mukuro. More drugs?!
Chance of Dropping: 3/10 unless Abel and Radu both go home. Then he goes too.
SETH
IC: Better on some fronts, worse on others! She is reasonably confident about the situation back in her Empire, since she paid a visit to it on New Year's and found everything still working and stable. On a personal front she feels like she's dropping the ball (and she is because of my OOC fail) and letting the Methuselah down a bit because she isn't able to watch all of them 24/7. She's pushing past that and shifting her focus off the Fortunas a bit! She also adopted Rain Jewlitt because he's adorable and pingy and because he might provide that little extra bit of security.
OOC: I thiiiink I have found a little bit of the old toppy energy I had for Seth. I am not having as much trouble bringing her out or sustaining threads, which is great! I may never get her back to her old state of out and about and EVER-VIGILANT! but at the same time she's no longer a once-a-month-wonder.
Plans: Also Orden planning stuff! Something with Shahrazad re: her identity as Empress-undecided if she'll just decide to withhold the truth from Shaz forever or finally tell her. Abuse Ion lovingly. Abuse Shigure lovingly. Abuse Rain lovingly. Host a tea party. Bounce her more off Romano and Devit and new interesting folks. Stop dying IRL long enough to run a CFUW game with Mirka.
Chance of Dropping: 5/10; I feel like I can drop her right now if necessary, but I don't have a burning need to. Someday Kiyo will get back to her!
HONLON
IC: LIFE IS GUREITO FOR THREE-HEADED DRAGON \o/
OOC: Failing at her voice a little. People find her friendly and almost tame and it's because I put a lot of emphasis on the Shuko and Junrei voices as opposed to the Kanan voice because it's easier to build a relationship with them! As a result she's lacking a lot of the ANGRY and ARGUMENTATIVE tones she's supposed to have. Buuuu. I am also still burnt out on her in general; I bring her out enough but I don't feel like I'm having fun.
Plans: :'D
Chance of Dropping: About 8/10 in the near future, because I think she's contributing heavily to my RP stress and while I don't absolutely want to drop her, I have very little motivation to do things with her and that is a bad thing and also I need to cut down my lineup. I have on-and-off debated dropping her for like half a year now and it might be time to rip off the bandaid and just do it finally.
MITHOS
IC: UNSTABLE AND MERCURIAL though that is really par for the course with Mithos. Got new relationships through the AUDie game, is being dragged kicking and screaming into new friendships. Flynn is topping him despite being a human! How can this be! Getting a deaged copy of himself in the timefuckery post punched him in the feelings too. And the personality-changer event switched him to 'needy.' He is trying to fanboy everybody and he's a very needy person anyway so bringing up that side of him without its usual insulating tsun is both funny and really really creepy.
OOC: Development! Complications! So many feelings! I have written a lot about his new and old relationships and the way his character is slowly painfully evolving. He still only deals well with a certain few people, but he is getting much easier to throw headlong into stuff and at strangers. He has such strong motivations and complex dealings with everyone he meets and I love it. Also he is one of the rare characters who gets more fun to play the more abuse I subject him to, so I always have a great time throwing him into games and crazy camp stuff. 8Da
Plans: Not a lot of definite plans-most of the new stuff I've done with him has come from events that I threw him into on impulse, so more of those are always great! I do want to deage him to hero!Mithos sometime though! And baby!Mithos. It is really fun to play him out as young and sane once in a while, plus the consequences afterwards.
Chance of Dropping: AS OF NOW 0/10 YOU CAN PRY HIM FROM MY COLD DEAD FINGERS
ASHTON
IC: He is getting around! Greeted a few folks he recognized from CFUW games, and met a couple of others who he didn't. Pretty good overall. Constantly has an undertone of mild worry to his days, since he really does want to go home and check up on his friends.
OOC: Ffff. I have had problems getting Ashton out since day one, and I've figured out why: camp isn't the right type of environment to play him in! I have no problems playing him in CFUW games because there he has a definite goal in sight and he can work towards it, but in camp it is a lot of nebulous and neutral 'doo ba de doooo' which his relationships and his everyday interactions, fun as they are, don't really make up for. He doesn't have much drive in camp! This is a huge problem and I have been stuck in a cycle of 'la la la maybe I should drop OOOH CFUZAZZLE GAME la la la OOOH CFUZAZZLE GAME la la' for months.
Plans: ...see below!
Chance of Dropping: Almost definitely 10/10; he is bumming me out and I don't like the idea of keeping a character solely for CFUW. I still want to try and play him in the April demonverse game and see the Lucia-Sidney-David plot through to the end! And then he can go.
ISKIERKA
IC: Lots of exciting stuff! Making Granby turn to drink continually! Still propositioning other dragons but especially Temeraire! She has a pavilion thanks to Turkey (international incident?!) She is slowly beginning to gather a crew! Her new surgeon is Jade motherfucking Curtiss. And the personality switcharoo made her super violent and her captain super manipulative so hahahahaha fun times :'D
OOC: SSSSSOUL ANIMAL. Playing her is so much fun and I sit through her threads with this dopey '8D' look on my face. It is also great to have a character I can effortlessly jump people with again-and she usually has long-term purposes in talking to people too (she wants something from everyone, not just random chatting) which are super fun to build up.
Plans: Oh gosh so many. TAKE OVER CAMP WITH GRANBY AND LAURENCE AND TEMERAIRE!!! only not really I think. Hit on Temeraire more. Get more crew. Love on Granby a lot. Talk to Luffy more about this hilarious joining-a-pirate-crew idea. Get rule'd. Try to put one over on Lien somehow. DRAGON FOEYAY. Also do a transformation to human-I made her these hot icons so I should use them sometime ahhh!
Chance of Dropping: Right now also 0/10. She is a joy to play.
ARTEMIS
IC: Is enjoying camp a hell of a lot more than home, for sure! She is no longer bored and no longer weak and the people here are more interesting and the dogs are a lot smarter and-yeah she spent her first few weeks in a kind of giddy high that she tried not to show outwardly. WHEE.
OOC: Impulse app! I do not regret it! I needed another matter-of-fact character, playing Artemis makes my inner mythology fan very happy, and her threads with canine characters and with the other Greek-pantheon-type folks make me laugh. I also like how she is changing little by little just by being in camp-getting stronger-and she can feel it /o/
Plans: idk stare at Apollo. Figure out Thalia and the other PJO kids. Poke other gods more. Do an actual dog-walking post! Also a post where she tries to mess with the Face!moon. Stufff.
Chance of Dropping: 4/10? As in I could drop her if I needed to chop my lineup yet more, but right now she is fun and new and dandy. |Db
