Puppetmaster: Bit of a random question for you.
[8:17pm] Puppetmaster: Are you in any other RPs that you recommend? I'm looking for somewhere I can restart with what I've learned in my time here, and without the knee-deep shit I've gotten myself into.
[8:19pm] Puppetmaster: In advance, no this doesn't mean I'm leaving FR.
[8:26pm] Alivi: Well
[8:26pm] Alivi: I do forum RP
[8:26pm] Alivi: I have a pokemon one I am opening
[8:26pm] Alivi: I am on a Before THe Mast
[8:26pm] Alivi: and Pandora
[8:26pm] Puppetmaster: I've never gotten into forum RP. What's it like?
[8:31pm] Alivi: i personally like it
[8:31pm] Alivi: it doesnt require me to always be online
[8:32pm] Alivi: And the posts wait for me
[8:32pm] Alivi: def more controlled and more writing
[8:32pm] Alivi: however it is slower than IRC RP
[8:32pm] Puppetmaster: So on one hand, you have the option to wait. But on the other, you /have/ to wait.
[8:33pm] Alivi: depends
[8:33pm] Alivi: If you RP with someone who posts fast
[8:33pm] Alivi: good but often it takes a bit
[8:41pm] Alivi: But…like what do you mean knee deep shit?
[8:57pm] Puppetmaster: The whole thing where I keep changing things without running them by the mods and now all of them who're above contributor hate me.
[8:57pm] Puppetmaster: Sorry for late response.
[8:57pm] Alivi: ...?
[8:57pm] Alivi: i dont think they do
[8:59pm] Puppetmaster: Pres is not a fan of me, at all, in any way, shape, or form.
[8:59pm] Alivi: have you talked to him/
[9:00pm] Puppetmaster: The only times we've talked personally is when he's berating me (well-earned berating, mind) for doing stupid things.
[9:01pm] Alivi: Well
[9:01pm] Alivi: let me tell you this
[9:01pm] Alivi: just be open
[9:01pm] Alivi: (he berated me too once)
[9:01pm] Alivi: andddddd
[9:01pm] Alivi: i know you wanna characterize June right?
[9:01pm] Alivi: Want me to help?
[9:01pm] Puppetmaster: It's less of once and more of... 4 times.
[9:01pm] Puppetmaster: But yes.
[9:01pm] Alivi: I have an excercise
[9:01pm] Alivi: it works for me all the time
[9:01pm] Alivi: :D
[9:01pm] Alivi: im a writer.
[9:01pm] Alivi: i know characters and development they are right you cannot force it.
[9:03pm] Puppetmaster: Sounds good.
[9:03pm] Alivi: Ok
[9:03pm] Alivi: So lets start with 20 questions sorta thing
[9:03pm] Alivi: Ask me a question
[9:03pm] Alivi: about Eriko
[9:03pm] Alivi: anything
[9:03pm] Puppetmaster: Ahhhh.
[9:03pm] Puppetmaster: What's her favourite colour?
[9:04pm] Alivi: mmm She likes Green particularly an emerald color or forest green. But she is a colorful person regardless
[9:04pm] Alivi: And June?
[9:04pm] Puppetmaster: Blue. Colour of her eyes and her mother's.
[9:04pm] Alivi: Any particular shade or just all blye
[9:04pm] Alivi: blue*
[9:05pm] Puppetmaster: I don't know the names for shades, but straight primary-colour kind of blue
[9:05pm] Alivi: awww
[9:05pm] Puppetmaster: No tinting
[9:05pm] Alivi: ok
[9:05pm] Alivi: So What is June's fave beverage?
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: It was tea, until
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: THE INCIDENT.
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: God damnit Roget.
[9:06pm] Alivi: lol
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: And now cocoa.
[9:06pm] Alivi: marshmellows or no?
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: Nope, spiced.
[9:06pm] Alivi: oooo
[9:06pm] Puppetmaster: She prefers it unsweetened if she can get it, but she can't here.
[9:06pm] Alivi: Eriko is tea, all kinds but she lovessss green tea. She thinks some drinks are too sweet here.
[9:08pm] Alivi: Your turn
[9:08pm] Puppetmaster: What's Eriko's happiest memory?
[9:08pm] Alivi: ooo...
[9:08pm] Alivi: From the site or off site?
[9:09pm] Puppetmaster: Either.
[9:09pm] Alivi: mmm
[9:09pm] Alivi: On Site getting married (except for the whole monster XD)
[9:09pm] Alivi: off site, catching fireflies with Aya a friend of hers when she was a kid.
[9:09pm] Alivi: What about June?
[9:10pm] Puppetmaster: She doesn't really have too terribly much on site yet, but the hunt in the woods for stoats was nice. Off site, getting her time in college over with.
[9:10pm] Alivi: Did she party a lot?
[9:11pm] Puppetmaster: Nope. Stayed in her room and studied. Practically no socializing.
[9:11pm] Alivi: She have a roommate?
[9:11pm] Puppetmaster: Yes, a gamer. She introduced June to video games.
[9:12pm] Alivi: What was her name?
[9:12pm] Puppetmaster: Sarah's a nice name.
[9:12pm] Alivi: So Sarah…what games did she play
[9:12pm] Alivi: and which does June love?
[9:12pm] Puppetmaster: Now I have to quickly go do math to figure out what games were actually /out/ in that period
[9:13pm] Alivi: hahah
[9:13pm] Alivi: doesnt matter
[9:13pm] Alivi: just do a genre
[9:13pm] Alivi: dont overthink it
[9:13pm] Puppetmaster: Shooters
[9:13pm] Alivi: ok
[9:13pm] Puppetmaster: Half Life was one of them
[9:13pm] Alivi: Awesome
[9:13pm] Alivi: good choices :D
[9:13pm] Alivi: Ok
[9:13pm] Alivi: So what movies does she like
[9:14pm] Puppetmaster: Classic American stuff. High school dramas, comedies, stuff like that.
[9:14pm] Alivi: Eriko likes Disney Movies
[9:14pm] Alivi: especially Pixar and of course Ghibli
[9:14pm] Puppetmaster: I can see that.
[9:14pm] Puppetmaster: Definitely.
[9:14pm] Alivi: mhm
[9:14pm] Alivi: so you see just even stuff like this
[9:14pm] Alivi: you know?
[9:14pm] Alivi: It helps you have a better feel
[9:14pm] Alivi: if that makes sense
[9:15pm] Puppetmaster: Yeah, it does
[9:15pm] Alivi: So Did June get bullied in school?
[9:15pm] Alivi: if so why?
[9:15pm] Puppetmaster: Yes, for being a loner
[9:15pm] Alivi: ok. Eriko was for being naive
[9:15pm] Alivi: XD
[9:16pm] Alivi: So June is a loner
[9:16pm] Puppetmaster: Was.
[9:16pm] Alivi: why is that you think?
[9:16pm] Alivi: was*
[9:17pm] Puppetmaster: Before she came here, she was treating hundreds of patients a year. Lots of those aren't going to make it. She couldn't afford to get attached. Plus, after she treated them, she probably was never going to see them again. Before that, she was studying a lot.
[9:17pm] Alivi: What has changed? Does she still have a hard time?
[9:18pm] Puppetmaster: She has a hard time getting used to being social, but what's changed is that she's spending the rest of her life with these people.
[9:18pm] Alivi: Yes.
[9:19pm] Puppetmaster: Yes?
[9:20pm] Alivi: mmm
[9:20pm] Alivi: o
[9:20pm] Alivi: k
[9:20pm] Alivi: SO overall how does she feel
[9:20pm] Puppetmaster: No, what were you saying yes to?
[9:20pm] Alivi: as in i understand
[9:20pm] Puppetmaster: Alright.
[9:20pm] Puppetmaster: She's still a bit depressed about the whole Ralph and Eriko thing, but she's internalized it. Other then that, she's beating herself up over last week's mission.
[9:22pm] Alivi: Does she have a hard time letting go of things?
[9:23pm] Puppetmaster: Yes, but never things that would negatively impact others if she held onto them.
[9:24pm] Alivi: Does she hold grudges/
[9:24pm] Puppetmaster: Nope, not at all
[9:24pm] Alivi: why not?
[9:25pm] Puppetmaster: Because she wants others to be happy, and she can't help with that if she hates them for anything
[9:25pm] Alivi: What is her Deadly Sin?
[9:26pm] Puppetmaster: Tough one, I'd say envy
[9:26pm] Alivi: mmm why?
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: She's jealous of all these people who have friendships with each other that have lasted months or decades, and really jealous of Ralph and Eriko for being in a relationship here despite the odds.
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: ...
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: Decades
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: The fuck
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: Years*
[9:27pm] Puppetmaster: Hungry.
[9:28pm] Alivi: lol
[9:28pm] Alivi: does she like want to start a relationship here with someone?
[9:28pm] Puppetmaster: Eventually. She's never kissed anyone, thinks that's pathetic, and doesn't want to die that way.
[9:29pm] Alivi: What way does she lean
[9:29pm] Puppetmaster: She doesn't know yet, because she's never tried. More or less, she doesn't.
[9:30pm] Alivi: ok
[9:30pm] Alivi: Anything else she is jealous of?
[9:30pm] Puppetmaster: Come to think of it, people who can shoot guns.
[9:30pm] Alivi: anything else/
[9:31pm] Puppetmaster: Not that I can think of.
[9:32pm] Alivi: See
[9:32pm] Alivi: so now you have good stuff to play up
[9:33pm] Alivi: have her get jealous now and again
[9:33pm] Alivi: have it so she talks about it or works to get what she wants
[9:33pm] Puppetmaster: Mhmmmm...
[9:33pm] Alivi: this is a fantastic flaw
[9:33pm] Alivi: that if you play it correctly
[9:33pm] Alivi: makes her a deep and believable character
[9:33pm] Alivi: Eriko's flaw is Pride
[9:33pm] Alivi: she thinks she should be able to everything and everything
[9:34pm] Alivi: when she cant she gets upset and she intenralizes a lot because she no longer knows how to balance her culture with living at the site
[9:34pm] Alivi: a lot of this happened over time
[9:34pm] Alivi: and if you looked at her in the beginning
[9:34pm] Alivi: GOD
[9:34pm] Alivi: she was fucking awful
[9:34pm] Alivi: it gets better with time
[9:34pm] Alivi: and worse come to worse like….ask people
[9:34pm] Alivi: people will critique ya and give tips
[9:34pm] Alivi: and I am always up for character development
[9:34pm] Puppetmaster: Alright. Thank you. This already helped a lot.
[9:35pm] Alivi: im glad!
