I don't know. I like Wasabi. The problem I'm having isn't the fact that I'm busy. I have plenty of time. I'm free most of the week actually. The big problem is that my control against the impulses of ADHD has been particularly inconsistent as of late for a couple of reasons. So I'd like to try, I just don't trust myself to follow through right now. It would be easier if I was a little more invested in the story. However, being a cook and really having no ties with anyone makes that kinda hard. I feel like he's just there. Reading through big posts is hard for me, and when most of the stuff going on either gets missed because I forget to check it or something, has nothing to do with my character, or is something my character would not really react to, it's kinda hard for me to keep my attention on it. So that's kinda the struggle for me.

Well, I can tell you for certain that none of the recent posts have had anything at all to do with Wasabi. Scarlet split the group up into smaller groups and Wasabi was sent on his own to investigate the other side of the island and see if there were any other visitors on the island. In theory, this could run him into Arlen, Nerissa and Elisa which could lead to some interaction and it could help you start building some connections to some of the members of the crew. And to do this, you wouldn't have to have read any of the recent posts, honestly. You just have to know that Nerissa, Arlen and Elisa are talking within the forest, near enough to the other shore to see that there is a ship there. And that there are members of The Hallows walking towards said ship.
Alternatively, you could have Wasabi start walking in that direction and get intercepted by @Peaceswore's character. Then Peacey can help work you into more intriguing things.
Those would be my suggestions to you at the present point in time and I don't think either one should require much knowledge of some of the larger posts that have been coming in lately.
I hope that helps some.
Peaceswore
Hurts too much, I'm done.
I think I could get some interaction with you and get you back in the story, it would take a bit of thinking and some talking but its not impossible ^~^ Let me know when you have time and we'll see what we can come up with!

That should work for me.

Yeah, that helps. Thanks. These sound like pretty good ideas. If it's not too much trouble, I think interacting with @Peacewore would be good. I don't want him to have to go out of his way to do that though.
I'm free most of this week. Tomorrow I might have to work in the afternoon, but other than that I should be able to do something, and I have no problems with talking things out first to figure out what's gonna be happening.
Peaceswore
Hurts too much, I'm done.
No biggie but future reference its she ^~^
Got it~ I'll likely be busy tomorrow anyway. I'll send you a PM Wednesday afternoon/night and we can talk about it then if that works for you~ (don't worry its not going out of my way, as my character isn't interacting with anyone atm)

DX Sorry! I feel like I've made that mistake before. For some reason my mind attributed your username as a he and now it just keeps defaulting to that.
Alright, sounds good!

Don't worry~ Really no biggie just future reference~ I get mistaken for a guy quite often XD
Great~ Can't wait! ^-^

I'm a Mongoose. I get mistaken for a lot of things on the internet. A guy, a girl... a fox. *Screams at the world* MONGOOSES DO NOT LOOK LIKE FOXES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ... anyway, yeah. Was trying to practice my Japanese one time and see how well I could pull off being Japanese on Omegle. I ended up getting paired with a random guy from Switzerland that called my bluff when he started talking about German. Naturally, I mentioned I had taken some German classes, because I have. So we spoke in German for a bit, and then the guy said I wasn't Japanese. He said my grammar and idioms were too good. I was actually from Germany according to him. Which, for the record, I'm not

I've been mistaken as British because I said 'brilliant' once. The internet is an obscure place...but, tbh, I like the anonymity
No reason~
I can relate to how you feel. I think I may have a mild case of ADD myself (without the H), though I've never actually been diagnosed. If it helps, Arlen enjoyed the fowl that Wasabi prepared...or not. I just realized that I may have done a bit of god-modding there since I assumed Wasabi would've prepared it already. Sorry :$ I'm willing to edit if that's not the case.
Take your time with big posts. Take breaks in between reading. That's what helps me when I've got to trudge through heaps of words. As much as it wears me out, reading all the posts/long collabs is what gives me ideas for my own post. I'm the type that likes to build off what others write...but that may just be me^^Bouncing ideas in the ooc chat is another way. Collabs as well (though I'm not much of a collab-er...). Also, our characters have been on a ship together for 3 days, so I've got no problems with you taking a couple of liberties regarding relationships. I'd like to think everyone of the Red Ribbons got a chance to taste Wasabi's cooking at least once, since he's their chef and all=)
Gotcha. But don't stress yourself too much. I'm a patient person...and you seem to have a lot on your plate.

Oh no, if I got mistaken as an Englishman, I'd be insulted. Then again, my heritage is a big part Irish. So you can see why that'd be a problem
Recently the term ADD and ADHD have been combined into one. It's all just considered ADHD now. There's just three different categories of ADHD. ADHD that's primarily hyperactive, ADHD that's primarily attention deficit, and ADHD that's both. I fall into the both category :/ As for having it yourself, that might be true. If that's the case though, the biggest counteractive to ADHD is just building strong habits. At the same time, the problems of ADHD are suffered by everyone. It's just when you actually have ADHD, it's to a heightened degree that has a negative effect on your life. So, where one person might get distracted for a little while, there's times where I literally can't remove my mind from distractions even if I wanted to. I could go on, but at this point I feel like I'm just rambling about ADHD. So yeah.
Yeah, my problem, what do I do during the breaks of reading posts? I need to build some good habitual things to do there, because just open time like that is one of the most dangerous things to someone with ADHD. It literally scares me sometimes, because I can't trust myself to come out of it without forgetting to do something important
As for the bird, I guess it's my fault for not making a post in a while. I was actually thinking that he'd never actually get around to cooking the bird, and instead continue to treat it well. As a result, he would send it out to hunt for small game. Using it as a hunter, rather than food.

Haha. No problemo. It's just editing one line.
And there you go~If you run out of ideas, you can always mention the bird (which I didn't bother to describe other than Arlen was unfamiliar with it). Birds are very useful pets for hunting, messaging, etc. Arlen would recognize it if Wasabi-kun sends it out...though he still wants to eat it ;P

Hmm, I can see how that might be a problem. I don't have a problem with hyperactivity. Rather hyperfocus. I get so lost in what I do sometimes, I overlook everything else around me. Time management is incredibly difficult for me...though I don't seem to have a hard time with habits (at least the bad ones <.<). So I don't know if I have ADHD or not. I'll also start skimming if I don't force myself to concentrate 9_9
You can try making notes to yourself. My logic is if an ADHD gets easily bored, leaving (after doing something else) then coming back would make what you were doing before less boring. But if the problem is remembering to come back...I suppose it's a good thing that there's an ooc where people will bug you to post^^

Sounds good!
Yeah, the attention deficit portion of ADHD doesn't mean that you can't focus like many people think. Rather, the problem is the fact that the brain can't relegate concentration properly. So there are times when they will be distracted, but there will also be times where they're hyper focused on something like you said. So much that they miss what's going on around them, which to the outside observer still seems like being distracted, but it's much different. Time management is usually a problem for people with ADHD, and the trick is building the right habits so that your instinctual body can just do the right things without you having to think about it much. A sign that often accompanies ADHD is that caffeine often makes you tired/puts you to sleep.
Yeah, remembering to come back is a problem for me. Even if I remember, then there's the whole motivation to come back part. Because then I'm usually doing something else that interests me, so I have to fight a ton of distractions just to get back, and when you don't have very good habits to back it up, that's hard to do.

Your best is the most anyone can ask for.
I've edited the one line. And now I go get some snacks =)

Yeah, the problem is, my best isn't something that even I can rely on. So in terms of being a trustworthy person, I'd like to be, I try to be, but I wouldn't advice trusting me to get something done.

Don't think like that. Pull yourself together, Friend. Positivity is the key to success.

Or so I've been told.
What they don't tell you is that when you force positivity into a natural negative, it completes the circuit and you get electrocution.

Winning the favor of a Fleet Admiral could be potentially useful...I guess. At the very least, there's no negative consequences to gaining favors.
