Scion: Seeds of Glory OOC/Recruitment

[HookerBoots]

Kink, feel free to bring Brigitte in at any point - she can be either arriving on the island now, or have already been there somehow. Your call, but she should be there, and probably camping out in the forest there.

 

[Kinkerhell]

Will do,'Boots. Give me a couple of hours to mull it over and get through class, then I'll have something for you.

"I miss the others Evan, but that isn't helpful."

I'm sorry if I seem to be nitpicking or being a jerk here, but I read the posts before this over and over, and I can't figure out what this comment from Crystal is referring to. Was it him offering to dress Tryp's wound or complimenting Crystal's fighting? Did I miss something completely?

We're past it in the story and all, so it's not a big thing, but did I miss something that makes that make sense?

Likely poor writing on my part I should of done more intropersective before having the character say that line.

It is very much her just sharing with Evan she misses the others. I was afraid it was going to be awkward when I wrote it but left it in because it was more first thought for that post. After the fight I bet she misses the others. Ofcoarse part of that was due to my thoughts as well I was sadden that it was just the 3 of us writing but now we have a fourth. Still I miss the others.

So yeah likely poor writing on my part.

 

[cats]

I meant dead. Even if they have legend, I'm not giving them the benefit of making death checks.

Don't worry about moving her character sheet too much. I've got it in my pm's, so I can repost it to my intro if need be.

And no problem, I'll get on him in a second.

Thank you

OOC: Tough act to follow.

Thanks! I figured since I'm new, that first post should make a bit of a splash.

Now, normally this is where'd I'd post her immediate overreaction to someone running into the clearing to show what a hair trigger she's on, but I'll hold off until Armphid and 'Boots post or give me the go-ahead.

Then I shall not keep you ladies waiting! I second Cats' praise as well, an excellent post. I absolutely loved it! And know exactly how Even will try to make a peaceful approach.

It may horribly backfire, but you places your bets, you takes your chances.

 

[cats]

Well it could be that I watched tangled a couple weeks ago but is Evan about to use "the smolder".

I have no idea what that means but it is awesome.

 

[Kinkerhell]

Congrats, Armphid! Brigitte isn't going to try to butcher Evan!

 

[Armphid]

Woo-hoo! Now it'll just wait until she gets to know him.

Btw, it's kind of cheating but I think he'll be using the Benefit of the Doubt Epic Charisma Knack to have Brigitte give him a chance to explain. Not sure if that's resistible or if she could tell but I figured I should let everyone know.

 

[Kinkerhell]

Using powers on me already, Arm'? Alright, I suppose when you come across an unidentified woman in the woods with a sword that big, it pays to be cautious. If memory serves, benefit of the doubt doesn't work with people who's legend is higher than yours. I thought about turning on Game Face, and then we'd be in an interesting situation.

Should we tag people when we post, so we've got some idea of what order we're going in? I feel like I should respond to Evan, but I don't want to cut off Crystal's entry, and I don't know if 'Boots has something going on in the background that's about to break loose. I'll wait for Cats to either post or pass the turn. Same for our lady and mistress.

 

[Armphid]

Awwww, I don't mean anything by it.

He really just wants a chance to try and talk to her before she starts shooting. He's perfectly aware that she has no reason to trust a random guy walking through the rain forest at night in a place he has no earthly reason to be in.

We don't have a set order, though I also agree that there's nothing wrong with waiting for others to post/react or give the go ahead. I worry all the time about whether/when I should respond.

On a side note, "Can you Hear the People Sing?" has been stuck in my head ever since you posted it.

 

[Kinkerhell]

Probably prudent, that. I was all ready to kick in opening gambit and body armor, too.

What can I say? I love musicals, and "Do You Hear The People Sing" seemed more appropriate than "What is This Feeling?" Or anything from, say, Jekyll and Hyde.

 

[HookerBoots]

As far as I'm concerned, you keep doin' what you doin' (to steal from yet another musical). I'd rather let you rp together than muck it up . . . within reason, of course }

*Mr Burns hands* Excellent, excellent.

 

[Kinkerhell]

Nice Avenue Q reference! I'll keep that in mind. Though that last bit does make me worry about being jumped by south african cannibal dryads or something.

 

[cats]

I have no idea what that means but it is awesome.

Tangled is a Disney movie. The smolder is a face seen in the video bellow, about 20 seconds in.

Okay I saw Avenue Q a few weeks ago and I still missed the reference. Can some one point it out to me so I don't live in a curious agony.

As for posting order. I am with hooker on the issue. As long as some one has posted after your last post, post again. I have seen way to many good threads die because some one had a real world issue come up and hold them back from posting. Keep the thread moving, no one gets bored, and the thread is still up when the person returns.

Okay that was long winded. Short story, don't feel a need to wait on my account unless you really just don't feel right not waiting.

Awww, yeah! And now I may have to see this movie. But, no. The Smolder will come out later; it's not for introductions. It is... *Antonio Banderas voice* for wooing.

I also think we should continue now to work in musical/music references in future posts.

 

[HookerBoots]

My Avenue Q reference was to the song "You Can Be as Loud as the Hell You Want (When You're Makin' Love)", lol. I told them "you keep doin' what you doin'" which is, indeed, what Gary tells Kate and Princeton while they're . . . well, I hope you see where I'm going with this

*makes notes* south african . . . cannibal . . . dryads . . .

 

[Kinkerhell]

HookerBoots, I swear to god, I will burn this entire island to the ground to get rid of South African Cannibal Dryads. Especially because I'm immune to fire, and we're in the middle of a forest at night, and they undoubtedly mostly come out at night.

Mostly.

Armphid, I totally agree! More references ahoy! I'll admit, I totally bought three dots of singing just so Brigitte could do musical theatre.

Alright, so, roleplaying shall take precedent over post order, because I totally agree with everyone on order of importance between those two issues.

 

[HookerBoots]

I'm just going to point out that I DO have two IRL Scion games going. I could be using those cannibal dryads for one of them. Especially now that someone's gone and sworn that they'll burn things down if I bring them in . . . .

However, that does mean that the things I'm using in my IRL games can be used here . . . oh, disemboweled Aztec warriors who use their dangling innards as weapons . . . man, that was some good times.

Yeah not my favorite song although the "You can't stick your finger there" joke made me laugh in that song.

I am more a "my girl friend in canada" or "when you help others, you can't help but helping yourself" type of guy.

 

[Kinkerhell]

*Making notes herself* Dangling...innards...strangling?

 

[HookerBoots]

Nah, they had, like, knives and shards of sharp metal embedded in them. It was totally the most fun I've had freaking out my players thus far. Though I suppose they COULD have been using their own guts as garottes, but I'm not sure if that would count as a grapple or as a melee attack using a garotte, you know?

Man, we are morbid, no?
