[Drop Meme]
Soubi: I love Soubi. He's my first character and although I've had problems and revisions in making him more IC, I usually still feel very comfortable playing him. He's the type I can grab out and play anytime of the day, just not for every post, har har. He's at a tough place in camp currently with Ritsuka/Seimei especially with the last volume of LOVELESS' betrayal aspects, Seimei v Ritsuka, etc. so there's a lot of canon reviewing and facepalming. But no sign of drop yet.
Ban: Man, I worked so hard to get Ban in but I feel like I don't do him enough justice. He's fun to play and good for pretty much EVERYTHING. Crack, angst, day in life, it's allllll good. Ginji's the most adorable ball of taro a partner could have. I struggle with getting him out more but he's still definitely a character I don't plan on dropping. I think I need to pimp for some cast mates since that would be a super motivator to pull him out more.
Tohma: I have come to accept that Tohma is a bit of a counselor backburner, given that it's how he is in canon as well. His "power" comes from off-screen stuff a lot of the times, so it's difficult for me to figure out how to keep his personality and stuff, which revolves a lot around his ability to manipulate and top people, without seeming too overbearing and allpowerful. But he's fun and his monthly counselor posts seem to give him a good way to interact with the general population of camp outside of NG and music people. No drop anytime soon at least.
Ryohei: Sigh. Ryohei. I love Ryohei. He was my complete fluke app, didn't expect to get him in, total joke. But he really grew on me and I love Ryohei very much now. The problem is he's such a flat-type, energy sucking character. And I worry that the way I play him is too 2D. He has problems building up strong relationships since he's a bit of an energy overpowered idiot and I don't have the RL time to play him enough to keep up the few relationships he gains. Which results in me backburning him, telling myself I'll pull him out for a big post rather than threads so he can get more action. And the cycle continues. I've been thinking of possibly dropping Ryohei, just because he's an important member of the family and I feel like he deserves someone who can play him better and dedicate more time to him. I do want to age him up first though (uhuhu, hot TYL Ryohei) so that'll give me a little while to mull it over :(
Sieg: Sieg is another flat type character. Relationships are so hard, orz. He's a freaking prince. And it's terrible to pull him out and not know how to really deal with people who want to kick his ass for being a prince. (If that makes any sense) He's a permanent backburner, only good for gimmicky stuff really, and ruining Ryoutarous' life. Possible drop in the future.
Susumu: My emo ninja baby. He's got two great castmates in camp and WE'RE HOPING SO HARD FOR A HIJIKATA AND/OR TESTU GODAMNIT. He's got some relationships but I need to work him out with main camp more. Oisei needs to play more too. It's like a 2-for-1 deal, sob. But he's had growth and changes and stuff in camp, so I'm pretty happy with Susu. No drop in sight.
Katan: Me and my pattern of partner-dependent characters :( Katan is the "nicest" best character I have which actually makes him harder to play! It's weird having someone who is genuinely GOOD even if he's f-up still. But Katan is also heavily reliant on Rociel in a lot of the things he does, even more than Soubi is reliant on Ritsuka to play. (Shockingly, nearly all of Katan's relationships are females XD) But hopefully I'll be able to pull him out more to play. He's no good for posts though, which is a major problem since I'm really terrible at jumping people and prefer to be jumped. Possible drop if Rociel ever drops.
