August Meet and Greet!

[rekindlemods]

Hello everybody, it's that time of the month, with apps and acceptances and whatnot! Instead of filling the OOC comms with intros, this is a MEET AND GREET for new players and characters!

• This is a place for you to introduce you and your character. You can ramble on about what you want to do while you're here, CR opportunities, your cats, anything.

• Reply to others about how EXCITED you are to play with them!

• Maybe make some friends!

• An IC intro log will be posted for all incoming players on August 15th!

Here's a little copypasta box for people who like boxes. Remember, it's all optional!

<b><small>NAME:</small></b> Your name/handle goes here! <b><small>CHARACTER(S):</small></b> Who are you playing? <b><small>LJ/PLURK/ETC:</small></b> If you're looking for people to add, put your stuff here! <b><small>PLANS/ETC:</small></b> You can describe your characters or detail some plans if you'd like! <b><small>GIF:</small></b> Insert a gif, dumb video, or picture of your choice.

I needed that pun to sustain me. After all, I can't just snerk every time the word 'hope' appears in sentences here.

...Or can I?

[lightstrike]

You already do that.

Don't lie.

I know you.

[avert]

It got worse, recently.

I tried to type nope and typed Hope.

Also capitalized it when not referencing the character or anything that could be a pronoun. Twice.

But yes I derive much amusement from name-spamming a certain bommerang-wielder. Even subconsciously, apparently.

[lightstrike]

You have a problem, Ren. I mean seriously, you do.

And I'm not taking responsibility for that because I'm not playing him in this game.

[avert]

But I'm going to drop the blame on you all the same. This is how I show my appreciation, obviously. As they say in anime, take responsibility.

Shame I'm not playing a KH character here, Light puns for days.

[lightstrike]

Nope I refuse. Refuse refuse refuse.

And get Terra to do it instead. I see you plotting already after all.

[avert]

You say that now, but one day!

...I'll remind you that you wanted two brunet dorks stalking you instead of one.

[lightstrike]

Lightning has a lot of stalkers. /points at them ffxivs

But creep into her apartment and she'll hang them over the river by their ankles.

[avert]

Well, Noel was doing it before it got trendy... Or something.

Can't speak for all of Light's other stalkers, but at least this guy knows better than to do that. I mean, unless the world starts ending here too and she oversleeps.

He might make an exception in such a dramatic event.

[ofsongandstrings]

HEEEEEEEEEEY IT WASN'T OUR FAULT WE SORT OF BUMPED INTO YOU WHILE DOING FATES THAT ONE TIME

/she says while back on Hydaelyn where you're about to appear again next month

[earthshards]

... she wanted two brunet dork stalkers?

We need to make this happen somehow.

[avert]

It's obviously her dream. And a dream is a wish your heart makes, right?

So yes, we must make her dream come true.

[earthshards]

Her dream? Those are pretty important. Cinderella could sing it better than I could

Yes, we should - dreams are too important to leave unfulfilled.






I feel like I just gave myself cavities typing that. ._____.;

[avert]

Exactly. Cinderella's probably get 'em both beat, let's face facts.

Now we just have to find her. Can't be that hard, right?







In my experience playing Ventus that's generally how I know I did it right.

[earthshards]

I don't know, Noel, you share a voice actor with Kovu and Max Goof, and I've heard both of them sing decently...

Shouldn't be a problem. How hard could it be to find a woman with pink hair that radiates power like her?

Hah. XD With Keyderps like Sora and Ven? Getting cavities is definitely a way to know you got it right -- Terra leads to more 'OH GOD TERRA, WHY' palmface-worthy moments with a side of 'now is not the time for sarcasm' and 'Keyderps and their Big Damn Hero moments'.

... wait, you played Ven? =o

[avert]

But they're Disney. You're Disney. I'm not.

If we're discounting anime, she should stick out like a sore thumb.

Terra has some very special moments, though I'm quite sure he could make cavities happen too. All that talk of hearts and whatnot. And hey, he's quite the gentleman when he's dealing with Cinderella, and that's sweet in its own way.

I did and still do. All your wind motifs are mine, clearly.

[earthshards]

Half-Disney. That makes me very self-conscious about the whole 'singing' thing.

We're totally discounting anime. The only way you could get pinker hair is if you're from a magical girl anime.

He's done it before now, usually in those 'Goddamn Keyderp' moments. I'm left reeling almost every time, too. But the canon instances of him being a sweetheart and a dork are almost too much for words sometimes.

Clearly. I'm now trying very hard not to attempt enabling - I've been wanting a Ven in the game for a while now, just because at his current AU canon point, Terra's... probably going to latch only little bro because of OH LIGHT YOU'RE AWAKE YOU'RE OKAY DON'T SCARE US LIKE THAT AGAIN stuff.

[avert]

You say to the guy with no Disney in him whatsoever...

Or giant mecha anime. Lotta pink girls there, or so it seems to me.

Makes you wonder what kind of world initially produced Terra, right? Like where do guys like this even happen. It's cute, though Aqua really ought to get those kiddy-leashes for both him and Ven.

Aww. I've got him reserved at a place for CRAU since he had some huge development but if you ever want me to hit up Terra in D_M or somesuch, he could certainly pop in on that. Since I've got Noel here I'm gonna let him get comfortable.

[earthshards]

Still. The thought of Noel somehow bursting into song is hilarious to contemplate.

Clearly, I must ask co-mods about the feasibility of a musical event.

Huh... yeah, there is. :|a

You really gotta wonder sometimes, with how naive/sheltered he comes off as in early game, and how willing he is to give people the benefit of the doubt.

... Oh, light, not the kiddy-leashes. He's 32 now, that would be humiliating. D:

Ohhh... I can't say I blame you one bit. Let one muse get their bearings/get settled in and all that. I'll have to hit you up in d_m, then - I'm curious now about this development and where he was at to get it.

[avert]

That would be a great and terrible phenomenon indeed.

I've definitely wondered. Of the lot, only Aqua seems to have a healthy dose of common sense - though at times even Ven seems to beat Terra at squinting down shady types. Have seen people postulate that Terra simply doesn't want to judge on appearances, or maybe wants to believe darkness doesn't always make someone bad, though I don't think I could make a call either way. I couldn't play Terra properly.

But he still might need it.

Funnily enough, he was in the wonderful world of Pokémon. But yes after three years he grew up quite a bit. Terra and Aqua came and went a lot, so he was actually heavily influenced by Lightning and Hope from FFXIII. Still a derp though, and still thinks Terra is the absolute coolest. Just nudge me anytime you'd like to see him.

[earthshards]

I'll definitely run it by my co-mods, then

I tend to play Terra as not wanting to judge people based on what he senses, but by their words and actions. He has darkness in his heart, and he knows he isn't an evil person. Why should he assume the same of others? It's sweet and naive, and tragic considering what happens to him.

!! =O Do you mean Route 29?! Small RP world - I actually know Mega!

Lightning and Hope? Those aren't bad friends to have at all, so big bro's nodding a bit in approval. Good company to keep, little bro. :)

Heh - I'll be sure to do that ^_^

[ex_aeroga402]

Would laugh if Noel ever burst into song. Watch him hide afterward if he ever does.

I think it makes sense, yeah. Terra's a good guy - and that struck me about all the BBS trio - and it just goes so badly. Wanna hug 'em all but it just goes downhill ten kinds of fast.

And yep, Route indeed. This derp here is mine, and Mega is awesome, I tend to go to her to talk all things Ven since we understand him similarly but have different experiences or think of different things.

Ven made himself a big ol' friend-family. You can bet he tore across the map every time Terra or Aqua showed up though, if they didn't beat him to it. I think one time a Terra ran all the way to his location and then slept all day because talk about exhausting.
