I haven't really stopped to be completely honest. In reality I'm just a lot more rigorous in re-reading my character sheets and refining the ideas, but I used to not be anywhere near as good at designing interesting and flexible characters. You can find some examples of that here on the site, but I'...

Einar slows to listen... but the news only makes him grimace. " Then there's no sense slowing down. First priority should be the injured, we can check for clues from there. " His attention goes to the poochyena. " T, you're light on your paws and aren't at a type disadvantage here unl...

I used to do character design like that. Throw things at the wall; see what I like and what feels awkward, forced, or out of touch with the character's overall design; touch up; and go with it. The thing giving it away is you called Marble "Kiara" in the description and 'other notes.' I al...

The rockruff stares at the orchard, then decides his time is better spent sniffing the bag. " ... Silk, apples, berries... woods, smells like frequent tree climbing, and... Ah, that's Wiki, " he muses quietly, stepping back and wagging his tail as he sniffs at the air. " Smells like h...

I was hoping Deske might post, though I might be being too generous with the time I'm willing to wait before posting. :T

Skya steps into the cafe roughly half an hour later than she meant to, wearing a tired scowl as she makes her way to the front counter. " Coriander, extra honey, " she orders, sounding rather drained as she pulls out some cash to put on the counter. " Having a rough day, Skya? " ...

Leafolawl

Yeah, I just figured I should wait until I have a majority of players' posts before I move things forward any further.

After a bit of looking around, police showed up to get statements and escort everyone home. Each was instructed to stay home or in high visibility areas with trusted people as they investigate. ----- A few days later, Skya sends out a group text. Hey everyone, I'd like to talk. In person if we can,...

Leafolawl

Alright, given the activity I'm just going to go ahead with that plan so we can get everyone together.

Leafolawl

I might just jump this to the next day. The holiday season was a bit of a drainer at the end of a bad year, and it might be easier to get things back in motion on day two.

"Fill me in as we go," the shiba instructs, checking both her makeshift bandage and her knife before heading for the woods. "The longer we wait, the more chances f'r something to go terribly wrong."

" She said she told him where to find apples. I don't think he snuck out, with that in mind... Also, that last bit isn't inapplicable to fighting types. You're visibly the strongest here, but don't be afraid to step behind me for cover if you need, " Einar reminds, keeping his paws moving....

Leafolawl

I'm willing to help out. I love the series, and having a "piece your world together" version is exciting as all get out for me.

And you have a lot of these that you're part of, so I'm sure it's easy to lose track of any of them.

Tesla hugs her new journal close. " Between the storm's precipitation and the wind speed, it's likely that even if I had left my journal under one of the benches at the mini-golf center it would be illegible, and that assumes the moisture hasn't fused the pages together, " the small fox re...

Leafolawl

That was me, sorry. I'm putting myself together again, so I should be back to regularly posting soon enough.

Leafolawl

It's been awhile since that was the case, but I'm still open to new players. Make sure you read this thread's opening post first, though. If you haven't done so, you will miss important setting details that would help get things moving when you get in. Also, sorry that took me so long, I thought I'd...

Rena tenses at the sudden appearance of her friends, relaxing with a sigh. " Can't say much has happened, just been waitin' for you after the fox left. Ah... see a glowing stick—wait, no... Stabbing end, more than an arm's length, thin body... Javelin. Was that from the fox we were s'posed to s...

Skya quickly puts the number in, immediately sending Kai a text that reads, ' I'm up for hearing those ideas you have to help the city. I can always do with some optimism in my day. ' " Let me just see if I can get Luka's number. I think I still have him on an IM... " the madura says, cont...

Was giving Brett a chance to reply, and then things got hectic with helping people move, family visits, and more. Things have settled again, so expect a post today.

Leafolawl

I'm one of the two most recent posts, and Serence's entire post takes place away from where Tesla could conceivably be aware enough to respond. A fennec fox can hear very well, but (and even this assumes Storm and/or Geoff live fairly close to Met and Maria) not really enough has been vocalized to m...

The living dog clears her throat. "Been a good bit since I've done this. 'Ey, if y'all're done ya can come back now! The fox left!" She thumps her own chest a few times. "Whoof... There. Janus should've heard that at the very least."

I'm surprised more players aren't looking into this, considering the current Imaginate arc.

Leafolawl

It's had the time to grab interest, and it's fleshed out enough that it could have been opened as it is had it only had the players. If it gets some additional interest I'll pick it up, but it probably should be locked.

Leafolawl

Unfortunately, I don't think it'll stick. I'm still the only person who's put forward a character sheet, and 22xander hasn't been on with any regularity.

I mean, it'd been a year since anyone had posted before you gave this a bump.

Leafolawl

The feline in question grimaces. " That's... confusing. Getting mail that quickly and targeted suggests you have a stalker... but why would a stalker take any interest in setting up something like this? ” She looks at her notes, tail flitting about with mild agitation. " ... This doesn't m...

Einar gives one final nod to Mrs. Monarch, then follows after the Riolu. " If he's smart, he'll have hidden himself once he got lost. Preferably somewhere he can keep watch to the outside, but if he can hear us calling at the least, it should be fine. " the Rockruff shakes himself a bit. &...

I was actually going to try to roll the next day around soon. This just gives me another reason to do so.

Leafolawl

Skya's ears fold back, smiling ruefully. " The reason the timing didn't alarm me was that it wouldn't be out of place for my dad to text me about it at the last second. What alarmed me was the fact that pets I didn't know knew about it, and I could have sworn I kept good tabs on the pets of dad...

The shiba laughs at Tara's answer to the wolf. " If only that weren't true. Yeah, we got back and some magic fox kit started tellin' us to do nothin' or she'd kill us. Ah had non-combatants go back inside while the others went out to find the spirit fox. Ah stayed back to distract the young vix...

That's where I am, and why I've been relegated to mobile only for months.

Things happen, I just hope it's an inexpensive repair. Needing to entirely replace parts isn't a particularly savings friendly situation.

" I'd also like to take the bag with us, if we may. If aura fails, scent is a very reliable backup for keeping us on the right track, and I'm sure it'd be very reassuring to your son to have something of his in his possession once more, especially one so identifying, " the Rockruff reasons...

Leafolawl

Sure, I'll put something forward. Figured Deske might still need some adjusting time, but they might actually be waiting to have T follow Einar's example. Can't say I know the plan there.

Leafolawl

I'd like to make a respectful poke to get a show of hands for those still interested here. I've not put up a reply in character to let everyone adjust to things since the start of the pandemic, but I'm starting to worry interest has waned.

Leafolawl

Tesla tenses briefly at the call, then steps forward to properly join the group. " It's... a new journal, after I lost my last one in the storm yesterday, " she answers quietly, still trying to keep a comfortable space between herself and the new fox. " I... like to organize my though...

Leafolawl

Thank you. Been on my feet all day, so it's nice to finally be going to bed, especially with such a warm note.

And happy birthday to Shirosune, Demious Lupin, NosWaster, Leitrean, davias, and russell winter. My wishes to any of you who still pop in around here.

Rena turns to regard the ghost with her, though she seems unsure what to say at first. " ... Just to be clear, ah don't actually know what we're gettin' into. The few things ah do know are that this is important, that ah have a knife that can at least hurt ghosts, an' that means whatever is out...

Skya looks about the table before looking at the offered phone. " Those are both decent ideas... No last name... Hold on. " She pulls a little notepad from her collar, followed by a pen. " Inconsistent in method and presentation... I want everyone to think back over today and pick out...

Elegance Lightblue carries a similar color set to the old forums.

I'm glad the update is more mobile friendly, at least. I don't need to do any zooming in to read comfortably on my phone's screen. It will still take some getting used to, and I do hope the custom elements are easy to set up.

Leafolawl

Fortunately I've not been hit personally, lucky me. I'm in good health, and mostly just bored out of my mind.

I've been slow out of respect, as the pandemic is asking major social changes.
