Thank you; I'm feeling better now. I posted for the game and I decided to dress up for the festivities. I do love the Blood Lotus, it substitutes as a good poinsettia.

Merry Christmas everyone! Kierys glad to see you feeling better!!!

Merry Christmas darling, are you having a good holiday?

Yes, a bit tired and soooo done with traveling, but healthy at last.

My holiday so far has been good...though now that I am at my grandmothers trying to diagnose why her computer is running so slow...it's getting trying. We'll see what I'm able to do.

I have been eaten by festivities!

But...I have returned. And I have posted! ^_^

Does Morgan get any roll modifiers for the fact that she's tuned out everything to stare at this door and go "bwuh?" at it?

I'll drop the difficulty check because she is really concentrating on absorbing all the details of the door. I'll either make my post tomorrow or the next day; tonight I can't get my brain to wrap around this concept. Plus it hasn't been quiet in the apartment for the past week. >.< I can hardly hear myself think half the time...

Hey! Thought I should let you all know I am currently in New York City! I'll be here until the 7th, and while I have constant internet access my posting times might be a little off.

That's okay hon, I was about to post an announcement anyways. I may be postponing gaming until my brother in law leaves, because honestly, he is so loud that I can't hardly hear myself think, and he is always talking. I haven't been able to really concentrate on the game when he's around, plus there is a lot of other stuff going on too and I just need a break from this. My head is frazzled and running this game is just taking a lot out of me. So I'm just going to step away for a couple of days, get my head straight, and then come back to it. I'm sorry to have to make you guys wait, but I just can't deal with it right now. I will come back to this, so never fear. I just need a break. Sorry to inconvenience you ladies, especially at such an important spot in the game. Until I get back, nobody will be expected to post, so don't worry. I'll send you all PM's when I get back so you know when the game is back on. Again, I'm really sorry. I hope everyone understands.

It's okay. It's the holidays, after all. *snugglefluffs* I hope everyone has a joyous new year!

Happy New Year all! As awesome as the festivities were I'm glad things are settling down...I want to get back to the RP!

I'm hoping to update that tonight, tomorrow night after work at the latest. Thank you ladies for your incredible patience and understanding. You guys rock. ^-^

Hooray for in-game chatter? :P

Yes, I'm very glad to have you two interacting at last. ^_^ You two just keep at it until you are done eating, then I'll jump in. Take as long as you like. This is a good chance for you two to get to know each other on a character level.

My computer exploded. T_T I had to buy a new one. I've got to go to bed soon (aka now) though because I have a morning shift tomorrow. Posteh comes by tomorrow evening GMT. :cry: So sorry for the delay!

It's okay darling, sorry to hear your computer went boom. I hope you were not hurt by flying shrapnel. ^-^;; You ladies have a little more leeway when it comes to the posting rule because you've stuck through even when I was being slow and stupid, or when I put things on hiatus and such. You are both patient, lovely ladies so I'm willing to let things slide a bit more with you, because I know you'll always jump right back into the swing when you get the chance. I instigated the rule more to keep new players in check, because if you don't make it a habit to have them post often, they might up and disappear altogether. ^-^;; Anywho, sorry for rambling. Just jump back in when you get the chance, hon.

it EXPLODED?! that must have been a sight...glad to hear you were able to get a replacement so quickly! If my computer were to kick the bucket it would take weeks to get a new computer (curse you postal service!) Anyway, glad everything worked out I'm really enjoying the interaction with your character!

Hate to double post but I wanted to let you guys know that due to a severe wind storm (hell lets call it what it in, a land hurricane) my internet and power have been going in and out. The storm should be over by tomorrow so thats when I will post, again just wanted to let you guys know what happened if I suddenly fall off the earth for a few days.

It's okay hon, just be sure to stay safe, alright? Avoid the windows. O.O

Oh goodness! Stay safe! :heart:

Eh, I just popped round to Darlo and bought a new one. :P I was going mad without my internets!

Morgan's reading list:
The Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum
Anything by JRR Tolkein

Morgan's recipies:
Ca Uop Xa
Chao Tom
Goi Guon
Me Xao

Dun dun DUN! Morgan has no idea what she's just stepped into, methinketh. ^-^ Magic isn't real, heh. Oh boy.

I know. Her poor little brain's going to explode when it hits her. But when she picks up the pieces I think we may need to alter her score in reality?

It depends on how she takes it, exactly, and not just on the surface. Core beliefs are hard to alter and it may take some time for her to fully accept the situation. For instance, while in the dream she may say she accepts it, but whens he wakes up, maybe she will attribute it all to delusions and dreaming and go back to how she usually is. It really depends on how your character reacts internally and such. So yes, we shall see. But it is entirely possible for her to change, and then we'll adjust accordingly.

I have safely returned to my 12x12 box! (aka my dorm!) Sorry for not posting the past few days, it was a flurry of trying to pack and not forget things (I of course still did) and fly back up to university. :P Which will start on Thursday. However! My schedule this semester is really laid back so I shouldn't have issues with posting.

I will also warn you all though that this weekend I will be traveling south for a speech competition and I am not sure if internet will be available. So if I go AWOL for a day or two that's what happened.

Also, poor poor Morgan....no magic? how does she have fun?!

You guys don't need to worry about the posting requirement. I know you won't disappear for long periods unless you have a good reason; you've both been fantastically amazing about following rules. The requirement was in place because I did not know you two very well; I did not know how serious you were about gaming and if you were the types who might forget about games and not come back. Now that we've gamed together a while, I'm confident that there will be no problems. Be sure to keep us posted if there are extenuating circumstances, but that aside, just be sure to post within the week and we should be just fine. You two are very good about keeping with the game and posting often, so I have no worries. I'm actually very fortunate to have such good players in my game. ^-^

Aww, thank you Kierys. Congrats on your win in the avatar contest, by the way. I'm typing up a post now, and of course Morgan would reference the original Peter Pan in it. :P

Admittedly I do kind of hope we can snag more people for this place. ^^; It's getting a biiiit dead with just the two of us. We should see about headhunting Asahi Kumoru and kidnapping him here.

I know I said Ivan is an amazing player and then you shredded his application for typos and whatnot, but frankly I'm impressed he even tried given how high his fever was (he's fine now, if anyone's been worrying, but I think he's too busy catching up from being sick to think about RPing). But Asahi is another person I really respect as an RP'er. I'll see if his ears are burning yet and poke him this way. :P

And Bippy...I'm sorry about Audra and Morgan. >_> I hate it when my character is this evil to another character when the player is someone I like.
