state of the union.
Joshua
IC: Joshua is nearly broken and hitting new record highs for paranoia. He continues to refuse all contact, getting to the point of violence at any contrary mention. Frankly, any thread at this point either runs the risk of death or being out of character, whoops. That aside, he is satisfied with where he is and what he's doing. He just can't tell anyone about it. -Really, this isn't going to change until someone intrudes much too far. The likelihood of Joshua accidentally shooting himself in the foot is high too.
OOC: Haaa, Joshua is rendering himself unplayable. This would be one of the times where I am definitely backing myself into a corner via play. However, Joshua always has the amazing capacity to bounce back, so however this all blows over. . . He will get back up to speed. Loev my baaaby angel-demon.
Plans: Stage an intervention, refresh the group he threads with, and get him out.
Takanari
IC: Koutei continues to make friends while slowly processing through his personal life and growing along the way. He really doesn't refuse contact so much, but he's still inept with emotions and has control issues with himself. Notable characters would be Koumyou and Roxas with a botched therapy session and a common bond over being "shadows", respectively. He is close to the point where he has to move to continue to grow, though, so it's a matter of which way he tips. Despite this, Takanari is at a highly healthy point, even with the threat of backpedaling.
OOC: Uh, I'm solid with Takanari. I don't think I ever won't be, really. I feel like he should get around a bit more, but taking a break with him as my primary seems to be helping me recharge my batteries on playing a character that is such a break from my usual. That said, he could stand to check in on his outer group of friends and pester other people.
Plans: Refresh his outer group, do something with his note-keeping?
Ashe
IC: ... ... ...
OOC: Ashe needs to be played with a greater frequency, so I can remember her key interactions. At this point, I keep resetting her relationships with each new thread due to memory failure. (Get to making a chart.) I will likely tag her group that doesn't cause problems-Delita-then work from there. She will be having cast issues along with having to deal with a number of drops that have effected her and hers. . . I have my work cut out.
Plans: Canon review over the next couple of days, character view notes/essay, set-up a chart, make a list of people to tag.
Kino
IC: Kino has a knack for letting everything roll off of her. It's hard to tell if she's upset or not unless you plunge deep waters. She does realize that she "disappeared" again for some time and is displeased by it, but no one seems to be commenting on it. . . So, she lets it pass without comment. As expected, she's constrained by and annoyed at camp while having the common sense not to take it out on the people who would seem most responsible. Frankly, she will keep plugging away as same as ever.
OOC: Personally, I love how Kino has such a deep current, so that she's always the same even when she's not. She isn't fazed, so Kino will be the same as she ever was and will be. Playing her as a primary works better because it keeps her perspective prominent while not demanding too much thought or work to keep her running. We cool.
Plans: Character view notes/essay, brief canon review, some kind of philosophy post.
Karasuba
IC: Camp is becoming slightly interesting lately. Not by much, but there are a few characters that are finally catching her eye. She doesn't have much to do which is boring, but Karasuba adapts and continues to roll on. By now, she's likely unhinged a bit by going so long without Muu-chan around, but she has endured worse and knows that Musubi is safe and sound back home. . . Or else.
OOC: I'm starting to develop some comfort with Karasuba, but I need to run back against canon to make sure I've got the right idea. Her voice is very difficult to grasp as well as how she has different faces for different people. It's really hard to strike the balance between how biting and faux-unassuming she is. I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do with her in camp, but morphing out of the shadows to stalk and rape seems to be working.
Plans: Canon review, that cast post.
Akito
IC: Akito is slowly but surely working everything back into order. He isn't satisfied by a long shot, but he can see the foundation of what he's working at building up. While there's a lot of personal processing he needs to get on, he's about caught up on where he wants to be on the going-ons of camp. Notably, he isn't going to lock himself up as he passed a trial by fire with stunning colors. . . In his mind, at least. Overall, Akito is content with a bit of unrest as per usual.
OOC: He's almost broke 1k! That aside, I feel bad that he's such a closet case, so thanks to everyone who jumps him while he is out and about. I'm feeling fairly confident with Akito if only because he's a character I can play in stride. (See: Joshua, Takanari, Kino.) There's a bit of arranging and slow moving progress, but it's for the best that Akito goes at a slow pace. Mm, and I could use better attention to continuity as usual.
Plans: :)
The Devil
IC: The Devil is never, ever fazed, really. She works everything at her own pace, and is quite amused by camp in as much as humans manage to amuse her. There isn't much to say, but there likely won't be. She has thousands of years of history behind her that sets her in stone a bit.
OOC: Ahh ahhhhh. ♥ While she isn't out of my league, The Devil is definitely too cool. I'm going to have to nitpick canon a bit, but I think I've got a tight grasp on her voice even if her intentions are a bit elusive. It's startling how easily I can hop around and tag people with her. Mm, I have quite a few essays to get her canon compatible with the Bible and to brush up on the finer points that were left out of the movie. All in all, I will just be having a few interesting hours on Wiki.
Plans: Essays on Lucifer and so on.
Me
Well, I am free of distracting video games. . . Maybe. So, I've got the intention to either sit down and focus on characters or drop, now. Frankly, I'm pleased with my current cast as it is, but I need to keep them all out a certain amount to keep continuity up in my head, but it doesn't help that some either lend themselves to playing easier or just being too much fun to play. I'll likely have to fit a few characters back into camp as they've strayed off or become too dry, but that will be dealt with after problem children. Etc etc.
Also, for the fun of it: 2 out of 7 are traps, 4 out of 7 are rapists, 5 out of 7 are female. . . I don't mind these trends!
