It's been nearly a month since my last posting since, mostly, I haven't had much to say.
I wanted to say thanks to those individuals who have been helping me to get back into Bri's headspace and find her voice again. She's a tough cookie to crack and right now I think I'm starting to figure out 'where she's at' so to speak.
Marrow has grown too complacent, however. I might be contacting a few of you about this to put some conflict back into the cranky, bony one. While complacent is good for her mental health, surely, it's kind of boring for her player. ;) I have a few ideas, having discussed it with a couple of you, but it's a matter of finding a way to implementing it. If I can't find players to help me out, I may turn to plot staff to see if they'd be willing to run a short scene for me just to act as a catalyst to get her back onto that path of mental instability.
And Theresa's just fine, really. I just need to get her out more. :)
That's about it.
It's been a few weeks and I'm still trying to get my crap together. Thanks for bearing with me.
I'm finding I have less and less time these days for MUSHing, so I'm trying to work out a week-by-week schedule for this. Bottom line: I work shifts and have found that I need to be more RL-social, including seeing friends I hardly ever see and family members who feel it's six months at a time before they get to see me again and aren't happy with that. (They exaggerate, but still. Point taken.) And on top of this, I've been bringing work home, have a personal project that has to be done (for my own sanity) and have been cracking down on my school work.
So, I can't be on every night, but I'm doing my best to be on 3-5 times per week, minimum, as I still want to MUSH, still have obligations on MUSHes and don't want to drop everything.
With all that in mind and in the spirit of getting back into stuff, here's what I need/want to do with my characters:
- Brianna - She's currently the de facto leader of the X-Men, a teacher, a squad leader, yearbook advisor and a musician and lately, she has been very
inactive. Again. Still. However you want to look at it. I need to fix
this. However, I've made a few attempts to get people together, set
things up or even be available but people aren't taking me up on much.
Any suggestions on how I can get people excited to get involved again
would be greatly appreciated. Because I can't be on every day, it's
sometimes hard for me to judge when others might be around or to just
spontaneously start things -- shiftwork sucks, ladies and gents. Also,
aside from this, now that she's relatively mobile, I'd like to get her
out on the streets a bit more... in her favourite club, the cyber cafe,
etc. She's been cooped up too much and I'd like to expand her
experiences a little. I even considered her 'moonlighting' as a singer
or guest musician at various clubs around town. Anyone want in on that?
- Marrow
- An acolyte of Magneto, Combat Marshal and general 'thug' for the
Brotherhood, my little walking nightmare does a lot of 'training' or
'working out', 'patrolling' and generally rumbling with the street
thugs of NYC. The side-line story that was going on for her was her
relationship with her boyfriend (which is great fun, honestly), but I'd
like to branch her out a bit. I know she's cantankerous and
scary-looking, but there's really a scared, walled-up little girl under
all those bone spikes and gruff attitude and it's something I'd love to
get a chance to explore a bit more, if anyone's willing. I've managed
to get to this a bit with her relationship with Zach, and with some of
her friendship with Rogue, but I really feel I've only managed to hit
the tip of the iceberg. Anyone willing to help with?
- Theresa - For those who don't know, I have a third alt named Theresa. Yes, it's Siryn! I've managed to get a few scenes down with a potential love interest, perhaps a few friends, and even an 'enemy', but there's something missing... ah! Yes! FEMALE FRIENDS. ;) All her contacts so far are male, which is fine... and I don't want to deter anyone with male characters to avoid RPing with Theresa because I've said this. But she's relatively new to NYC or to the U.S. in general, she's a student, she's Catholic with a bit of a temper/mouth on her if she gets riled enough, and she could really use some friends, especially those of the female persuasion. Who is she going to talk to about some stuff. Writing letters home to her aunt is great, but there's no one-on-one action right now. Who's up for the challenge? ;)
With the exception of maybe Bri, who does have some professional obligations she needs to fulfill or take care of as well, all three of my girls really need some interpersonal interaction at this point. One-on-one or small (read: 2-3 people) group scenes would be grand.
Do I want them involved in plot? Hm, well, by nature, Bri and Marrow will already get dragged into plot, so that's a given. Right now, I'm still trying to get a 'feel' for Theresa and what makes her tick, what will push her over certain edges, etc. So smaller, non-big-plot scenes would be something I'd like to focus on less, if possible, for a little while. Though, if she gets dragged in ICly, that's different. ;)
So, that's that. If anyone is willing to help out or get involved or wants to get dragged into something, etc., poke at me, please. Feedback is welcome too. :)
