OOC/IC issues essay

[shootin_blanks]

So uh. Haru-mun's entry about her own issues kind of pinged me really hard about some of my own issues, and I felt like writing up my own essay-thing about said issues, both OOC and IC. SO HERE:

Haaaaah. Some of the players here intimidate me, too. I'm still working on that.

Have you considered doing a co-run post with the new Mizuki? Something along the lines of "I made a new one for you~! Tell me if it fits alright." It might seem a bit daunting, but a post will expand who Io interacts with, and might even point out new ways to get her jump-started.

And you know I love your JJ. Gremio is rooting for you~! But yeah, I can see how the camp social group might be forcing your hand on that one.

...Actually, I hadn't even thought of something like that. THANK YOU FOR THE SUGGESTION ♥ I'll have to poke Mizuki and see if she wants to do anything along those lines.

♥ Gremio and JJ need to thread moooore. I love threading with you :D
And auuugh, I've got a half-written essay about the effect of camp and people IN camp on his view of Dee and Ryo, but I FAIL at making up my mind, and at essaying, so I never finish it when I start it XD

Sometimes a bit of inanity can make a world of difference. ♥

I feel for you on the essays. I have a happy little stack of incomplete ones. D:

asgdsajka I didn't mean to ping you DDD:

I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND YOUR ISSUES (... I'm ... counter pinged by your being pinged? XD; ) and like. For a while before I threaded with Agito I was terrified of Nishi |D;; and still have SOME ISSUES approaching my cast sometimes XDD;;;; uhm. BUT. yeah.

I used to keep track of who had met who (and now feel guilty 'cos sometimes I forget important relationships. HOW COULD I THEY'RE IMPORTANT OTL.) Maybe we should be thread tag-team-partners or something. I should thread with you more anyway >: We'll play our most difficult characters TOGETHER AND HOLD HANDS AND WADE THROUGH I dunno ♥

Ooooo I hear you on the IC thing a LOT too. Haru fixates, and REALLY quickly too. He's also SO easy to play. Unlike. Laura or Adam who I STRUGGLE with constantly, revising comments and the like.

S-Support group!?

IT'S OKAY. It was a good ping, cause I really needed to sit down and write out what exactly my issues are so I can actually, yknow, work on them D: D:

GOD, I DONT KNOW WHY WE'RE ALL SO AFRAID OF EACHOTHER SOMETIMES, SERIOUSLY, BUT I'M GLAD IT'S NOT JUST ME. D:

Keeping track of people makes me feel less weird about jumping them, somehow. ....It's funny, too, cos if you ever watch the entry in JJ's journal while I'm threading with new people, I update it as I'm threading, most of the time. lol obsessive compulsive habits.
And YES. Threading together more is a GOOD IDEA. ♥ (Especially JJ and Haru, e-even though they're our easy ones, because. lol retards |D |D)

God, having characters that are so hard and ones that are so easy makes the harder ones even more difficult D: D: "auuugh why do i suck so much with [difficult character] today, when [easy character] was just fine earlier." COMPARING THEM MAKES IT HAAAARDER ;;

SUPPORT GROUP SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA. ♥♥♥

[shootin_blanks]

...N-NOT REALLY? You kind of used to be, but... Not so much once I actually started talking to you on IRC every now and again XD ♥

[yuumama]

I AM SCARIER WHEN I HAVE A SUPPLY OF PORN ON HAND buuuut you knew that! /o/

and my issues are crazy insane but DON'T WORRY; you can top the hell out of the scary players. True story.

[shootin_blanks]

YOU DON'T SCARE ME, YOUR LINKS SCARE ME. My brother is still making fun of me for clicking on the rat porn :

[yuumama]

That one lingers oh God. I think I actually regret seeing it. it... it might be the only thing I regret.

I'd be interested in another Girl's Cabin One post, if you want more opportunities to consolidate Io's relationships there. Or if you want to co-host a post sometime, once Robin is no longer a monkey, we could have a post about costuming or something?

But don't stress this too much. Some characters will always be harder than others. Minagawa, for example -- I've had him over a year now and although I know I play him well, I always feel a bit of pressure to play him better ... maybe it's because he's a counsellor, I don't know. But I honestly enjoy playing with your Io and it seems like others do too.

On the suggestions front, how about a reverse-relationship meme? People give you their impressions on Io and you do the same. That's helped me consolidate where my characters are at in the past.
