1. "Ah, a Ryuu has LJ now. Well, Ryuu is interesting and a friend, so *friend*.", or something. 2. Writing, I guess, since it's an area you seem to specialise in. 3. Being fun, and also not being too negative about life despite people believing in lizard people, ordering trenches dug, etc. 4. You offering a certain idiot a more accurate representation of his character in the WonderRPG project. =3 5. Hmm... What're your views on the most important things when writing? As in, is it most important to have vivid descriptions? To be concise and to the point? To pick the appropriate approach for a particular scene or aim? To have something to say, regardless of how it's phrased? That sort of thing... 6. sadalice. annoyedalice is also cute. <3
Well, it actually varies a lot depending on the mood of the story, and who the focus character is. Let's say, for example, the main character is a drunk barbarian at a bar, the words used would be simple, and the grammar would be poor. But if the character is a sarcastic royal at a bar, there'll be a lot of flowery language and metaphors. If the story is serious, there'll be more description, and if it's more fun, they're be more focus on specific things.
I guess mood and the overall feel is the most important part to me.
1. *friend* a friend, pretty much. 2. Music, and "connoisseur" due to the feel I get from your attitudes towards it. 3. You care about your friends. Sometimes too much, I think, but you really do care. Too many people don't. ^^ 4. You showing me spamusement, and us exchanging links to the funniest ones. I still find this one amusing, by the way. XD 5. Let's see... how about: Do you think music is a great enough part of you that you would have ended up making it even if your life had happened significantly differently? Or do you think you would have followed some other path? 6. Sossy is not impressed, sleepy-Tsukasa, and bear-equipped Lain.
Do you think music is a great enough part of you that you would have ended up making it even if your life had happened significantly differently? Or do you think you would have followed some other path?I'm actually not that sure. The thing is, I wasn't brought up in a very musically-literate household (my dad's tastes running from cliched classic rock to country music, and my mom having no real taste in music at all), and my discovery of music was purely on my own. I first started off by wanting to learn drums, after hearing Rush's music for the first time. I gave up on that when I realized my coordination was horrible, and that my parents would never allow me to own a drum kit and keep it in the house. Luckily, my dad had a guitar lying around, so I picked it up and learned to play it

1. How could I not friend a Hish? <3 2. "pragmatism". 3. I like your general attitude; you seem to have a good grasp of when to laugh at yourself and when to be serious, and such. Wisdom and, indeed, pragmatism come into this, but it's kinda hard to pinpoint what I'm trying to say here, other than you being someone I have a great deal of respect for. 4. Trolltesting by providing a phone number for them to call. I don't think I'd ever heard of that before that business with... neko pan pirate, was it? 5. How about: what was your first foray into crossplay like? 6. 'Naughty or nice' is pretty, but all are good. ^^
Also, sorry for the late response. I've been pretty distracted lately, meaning I've not been very good at spending the necessary time to answer these properly... ^^;
If anything, I give you credit for having a life outside of the internet. ;p
That little incident with Neko Pan Douchebag wasn't the first time I've conversed with one of those guys via phone. You weren't around for most of Hachiko's dorama, but I had a rather interesting phone conversation with him and his mom after we suspected him of pretending to be his mother. One of my great regrets in life was not recording that. XD
My first foray into crossplay was doing a Boogiepop costume on Halloween '01 at a goth club here in Houston (note: I do not normally go to goth clubs, or any other kind of club, for that matter. XD) One guy knew what it was.
1. I am not sure I really need to answer this, as the default reason of "I knew and liked you from Wonderland" has been the common theme so far? 2. "Warmth" was the first thing to spring to mind, for some reason. Also "afro", somewhat afterwards when thinking about possible associations. 3. When MSNing with people I tend to be rigid and shy, but I found it surprisingly easy to talk with you. That might have been you explicitly reaching out to me, or it may be your natural bearing, but either way I like it. And come to think of it, that applies in contexts other than MSN too. <3 4. We had some fun MSN conversations, plus also there was LoC. Both are things worth me trying to do again at some point. 5. Hmm, how about... where's my hish Is Super Love Party: Hish ULTRA! considerable as being on the back burner, or just forgotten/abandoned? ^^ 6. All are good. I think I'd pick 'recentest' for the expression, though?
To 4: YES. Just earlier I was debating bringing Kieva back from her, what, year-long mental zone-out. Also, definitely come back to MSN.
To 5: I've not forgotten it. There are a few reasons for its slowness: a) With half the cast absent or largely inactive from Wonderland, I'm not sure what I want to do with their characters. b) The interest level. It seemed only three or four people were interested in it after a little while. c) I take forever to write things. d) This ties in with a, but I'm not sure where I want to take the story.
Those are entirely reasonable points about SLP:HU!, and I can't think of anything to say for most of them. If things change, though, I'll be one of the ones who happily reads new chapters. ^^
As for LoC, it occurs to me that restarting it has a small chance of increasing overall RMF RP activity, which could be interesting. I'm not sure how I'd play Elly, though, in that she might be a little different once I pick her up again. Can't be helped though, I guess, and there are potentially sneaky ways around it... Overall, I'm still up for getting it going again, though would still need a little time to reread stuff.
Also, we used the signup thread for discussion-y stuff, right? I was thinking about whether we needed a thread for discussing stuff, since that can lubricate things kinda (it helped a lot with LC's RPs), but on checking again we seemed already to have one. Though I forget if it was meant to be used that way or not.

And there you have it! Now to postify this.
