You have some really interesting characters in SWS and I especially like threadstalking your Bullseye. The thing I notice consistently in your posts is that you use "your" when you want "you're (you are)". It's a relatively small thing and I know a lot of people do it, but if you're looking for things to improve, that's something I can point out.

Writing this early in the morning, so excuse any incoherency. What to say about your characters that I haven't already said? You do a wonderful job with all of them, and it's refreshing to see characters no one else would think of picking up like Tabby and Bullseye. And you know how refreshing I find it to see OCs who aren't just more of the same old young pretty types.

Now for the almighty critique. Dun dun dun. Well, I have to say, you have the bad habit of switching between present and past tense sometimes in between posts on the same thread. Check the current one between Teddy and Martini for a good example. It's not too big a deal, but it's something you could improve on. Also, the comma, which is the bane of my existence, could be used a little more frequently. Just remember, these are little technicalities, and overall, you are a great RPer. I <3 ya!

Gracias on all accounts, any tips on how to manage the present and past tense thing a little better?

First off, check to see what tense your RP partner is using and match it. Personally, I always use past, "said" instead of "says" or "saying." After that, just make an effort to sure all the tenses match in the sentence, "sat up" instead of "sits up", "called" instead of "calls or "calling", etc.
