Brutusque Boarding School

Your very welcome and it is something that gets easier i'm still getting used to my character and exploring them quite a bit in terms of things they'd like and dislike e.g
 
Quick question, may my character be a Psi-Vampire? They feed off of specific emotions of humans, rather than blood. Feeding off of these emotions cause the human to feel slight fatigue or dizzyness.
 
is it ok to write out of post order right now? i read the last post wrong and thought the students had left in the limo when it drove away, and kinda forgot to actually welcome the students :/
 
Oh, I used to like those wolf pack roleplays, but it was always so messy. Wouldn't mind trying it again but with more communication, for old times' sake. As for writing speed, as Aqacia said, practice. My mind works both slowly and quickly at the same time, and so it smacks into itself a lot causing delays. My post here, with both Jono and Lydia took maybe an hour.


My insecurity is being able to realistically play out the personalities I create.
 
Um, I actually want to post a reply right now but do I have to follow the post order? actually, I've been rping for years yet this is the first time I've encountered a system like this ;_;
 
Really? I've seen this system being used a lot and also you don't have to worry about the system too much at the moment it's once we start going more that it will be more important to follow. I also want to reply but am a little scared to considering how i replied quite not that long ago ^^;
 
i've never encountered a post order before either but it makes sense for those incredibly detailed rps i guess


i'm a really fast typer but a fingerpecker so i tend to make typos, i always end up going over my post a million times tho cause i hate reuusing phrases or starting too many sentences with he/she and characters name, so it takes me max. 30 min
 
I've seen this system being used in even quite simple roleplays it's what usually kept peace and stopped people from getting left behind and giving everyone a chance to join in. I also dislike starting sentences int he same way but tend to leave it or change it all depending on how i feel about it.
 
Oh I see x) Seems like I just have to adjust with it as time comes by. Thanks for the info, though :) Having fun so far heehee
 
Yep, your welcome by the way and i'm glad the others are enjoying it as much as me. I can't wait Dante will be interacting with the others, is he going to befriend anyone? Maybe enemies? I can't wait to see what goes down.
 
I'm actually enjoying the ignition of Felicia and Irene's small yet hostile conflict ( Hi @Halcyon > :D ) And can't wait for Felicia to interact with all of your characters! Let's make this RP a very successful one. I've had many rps before this and most of them dies down before finishing the plot, I only finished 2 RPs, which I love with all my heart.
 
Thank you thank you, i enjoy it too. Expect no long sentences from Irene, but tons of eye rolls and scoffs.


Sorry my response is taking so long.


I had most of it written and then Aqacia posted the pen and paper thing so now i must go and rewrite most of it xD
 
I'm so sorry xD I didn't mean to make you rewrite stuff i just saw an opportunity for Dante to interact with someone and it is within his personality to be useful if he can and i took the opportunity i am so sorry.
 
Haha xD


It's cool~


I'll post later because i have to go out with my parents. You guys can of course post before me~


I don't want to pause the RP since i'll be gone for a bit.
 
Hey @Aqacia, I've got a little suggestion for your writing. It's something I've done, as well. Your sentences tend to be really long, my eyes end up kind of racing over the words really fast, and you repeat some things in a few sentences. So, some of them end up getting fairly long and winded.


For example, from your latest post, the last sentence: "Coming to this school seemed great even if there was some students or a lot that seemed to be unhappy, it's probably just a bad day for them."


This can obviously vary for you, but if I were to rewrite it, I'd make it something like this: "Coming to this school seemed great, even if there were some, or a lot, that seemed unhappy. Though, it was probably just a bad day for them."


The narration for a character also reflects on the character, and the trend with my characters is even-thinking, cool-headed, so naturally it may vary for you. But, the meat of my suggestion is try to work the message into fewer words than you currently tend to use, else you might end up being repetitive or overly lengthy. I don't know about you, but I edit as I go along. I hated doing 'bad copies' and 'good copies' in art class because I perfected it as I worked; it's the same with my writing. If you're more the type to just go at it and then re-read and edit then, then I can easier understand how stuff gets like it is. Either way, though, I just suggest trying to word it differently.


TL;DR: Try working the message you try to send with each sentence into fewer words, with more pauses. Helps save it from being needlessly lengthy and repetitive.


 
Speaking of wording, I could've done it better with that post xD I edit chunks as I re-read it all, sometimes stuff ends up grating together when the editing is all said and done, but I can't be arsed rewriting half of it.
 
Thank you, i haven't considered doing that before. I'll give it a shot and try to edit as i go along to see it if makes a difference.
 
No problem.


On another note, banana, apple and Greek yoghurt tastes fucking amazing. It also hailed here today. The west side of the house's flywires/fly screens got puncture holes all over. Some stones the size of... say, a large lollipop's head?
 
@Azalea Are we still going by that list of when to post or is it now just post when we can or if our character is interacting?


 
Welp, I've noticed that you all have been having a ball on this page and I've completely missed out on the conversations xD . I need to pay attention to this more. With that, don't mind my question anymore.


Like the rest of you, I am loving this RP already. All of the charries are certainly different from each other and it just spices it up and I'm just all AEBLRKJREBAFLJWDb. If that makes sense lol.


I'm certainly interested in the relationship that might be forming between Clyde and Felicia. I'm wondering whether they'll become pretty close to each other or if they'll be full out enemies.


Another thing, if anyone wants their vampire to be friends with someone- Leilani is certainly open for that. She wouldn't mind having anyone to bother with as her sister shows the newbies around.
 
*curtsies* Why thank you @Aqacia . xD .


I'm caught up on the actual RP but Kira replied so I was wondering if I go after her like the list says since I'd gone already before that. I actually started RPing at the age of 16 (I'm only 18). So while I might have started on this website earlier than some of you I most certainly haven't been RPing longer than you all!
 
You're very welcome. You don't have to follow the list strictly, if you haven't replied in a while you can, if theirs character interaction that needs a response you can reply, the order is there to help but is also flexible.
