I meant to do this to get my thoughts in order before it became a bandwagon. That said, hopping on it!
Joshua
Hilariously, I've been remotely debating dropping Joshua with the corner that he's put himself in. . . Then, my subconscious made me dream about playing him and I've been having a blast with the very few threads he gets out for. So, I think I'm revolting against that idea! Frankly, I never meant to keep him this long and while I was applauding myself at eight months. . . At two years, I'm wondering if he is my Drop When I Stop in Camp Playing character. I have no idea, really. That said, I've raked Joshua over the coals with my refusal to drop him with past problems and happenings, and while he is in a weird place right now, I'm not giving up on him apparently. I just need to get back on the ball with him and his friends while touching new kids too. T-Thanks for putting up with him and not raping the hell out of him, Hakkai, by the way.
Takanari
So, back in the winter, I thought that Takanari would likely be gone by the spring! . . . Yeah. Frankly, I do not know when he will be going, but as long as Takanari is happy to be in camp and has a reason to be there, then he isn't budging. While he isn't my usual fare as he can't rape his way out of a wet paper bag, Takanari does make every little thread interesting with his quirks. And that's what gets me holding onto him longer and being able to play such a nice character so goddamn much. Oh, and the tsun tsun helps too! So, yeah, I'm not going to put a time limit on the emperor as he will do exactly what he wants to. /o/
Ashe
Hahaha! So, I went through a very awkward phase with her, and I've never settled in since I got her, but she is back with a vengeance now. I really have no idea what she's supposed to be doing in camp, but I'm pretty confident in her and that's all that matters at this point. So, Ashe was very, very close for a second there, but everyone making sad faces at me saved the day. Kudos to you all! At this point, I can likely run with her for a lot longer as she fills that niche that I have for badass girls. She's pretty much staked her place in my line-up. Haha, I'm topped by my own characters. Oh, also, APP BALTHIER.
Kino
. . . \o/?! Kino isn't a niche character, but she is another primary. So, when I need to trade off and swap around, she does her job beautifully. I am very comfortable with her as well as loving her to death. Trivia! My wallpaper has been the same one of Kino for years. My winamp skin, which is Kino, hasn't changed since I got my computer six years ago. YEAH. So, I will likely just keep trudging along, doing my thing while Kino does hers until. . . She just needs to leave. I'm really quite at peace with Kino doing whatever she will. Also, I think people would kick me if I dropped her again after agonizing for a year over her re-app, hahahaaa.
Karasuba
While I am usually at ease with not knowing what I'm doing with characters, Karasuba is the one that gives me trouble for this. I know her character well enough, I think, but that doesn't change the fact that she's not a social character and is in a situation where she can't do what she pleases. Truly, a Muu-chan could fix all this, but I'm used to preparing for the worse and going from there. I am pending this decision on a review of canon to see if there isn't something I haven't spied in the mix to keep her. . . Stable? While she's in camp. In as much as Karasuba does stable, that is.
Akito
. . . Ahaha, sob. I-I know right now she is the kind that I would hold onto through any and everything. It's the same feeling as Joshua where I just love them and playing them too much. I-It's always the family obsessed, maladjusted kids, sob. I know I'm saying this way too early in the mix as she is only just hitting her two months, but I just enjoy playing her so much. Yeah, I end up threading with Shigure a lot, because she's a closet case and he's one of the few that will like come to her, rather than the other way around. But I like getting out and traumatizing baby dinosaurs and the like too. It's fun! I enjoy it! As do other people, I hope! She is also one of those multi-faceted characters where I can sit around and chew on any idea for a good long time until I'm satisfied. . . Then, there's another one to play with! Right now, I am still puzzling over gender and such which is going to lead into a wikihunt after this. So, yeah, I know when I'm topped, baw.
The Devil
SO, UH, I AM UNSURE OF WHAT I AM DOING HERE! I don't think I have my heart in the Devil yet? Granted, it could just take some time, but something isn't clicking and I'm just. . . Not having fun. Then, I'm not quite sure that I am angling this the right way. There needs to be more random mischief and just enjoying making life hell for other people. -Honestly, I'm getting the same feeling as Yukino where I doubt that I am a bad enough dude to play this epic of a character. She is confident, goes to the beat of her own drum, doesn't need approval from others, and so on! . . . And I am better with characters that have some psychosis to them, not a fairly well-adjusted ruler of Hell. :|a Still, I'm determined to put her through her paces before I really breech this decision.

Okay, I will steal this as I have like three social recluses: Tell me who to jump of yours. /o/
