Great, now my nose is stuffy.... But the death was so sad..... ;-; So emotional but beautiful.... *Blows Nose into Tissue*

 

[Aura Of Twilight]

So much for going to bed soon. *starts working on post, still crying*

 

[Sensei Fox]

Thanks. Personally, just Casey Williams singing that song puts me to tears. You can react as you will. I've done my damage.

How was that for my first shot at a character completely breaking down? I'm more of a light hearted writer so its Tad new for me

Very good, actually. What I usually do when writing a breakdown, specifically in this case, I take some form of cycle through the 5 stages of grief. Even if it's in a single post or ongoing posts. To save you a google search, the stages are as follows: Denial/Isolation, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. I'm an EMT so I have first hand experience in seeing these things. Makes it easier to write it, I guess. Anyway, It can be a natural cycle going down the list to Acceptance or it can be an unpredictable storm of running through the first four in any number of combinations before hitting Acceptance.


All in all, it's good for a first IC breakdown.

Thanks! I get a little emotionally attached to my characters and I usually throw my experiences in there so I literally wrote down one of my break downs (My friend died of cancer a couple years ago) but I never really accepted that, or really got angry honestly I'm still upset about it so I wouldn't know, I'll try to incorporate those @Sensei Fox


 
Also the little " anger slowly started clawing its way into her heart" is code for she is gonna go Kick some as

 

[Sensei Fox]

The stages can happen in the span of a few minutes, or they can take years/lifetimes to fully progress. Everyone is different.


Part of my job is helping people progress through those stages, so if you feel like you might still be in the cycle, shoot me a PM. @Aelin

If I ever need it I will.

Good, now on to the happy subject of RP and kicking the Nexus' ass.

 

[Aelin]

Hell yeah! xD

 

[ShadowedNexus]

Eh, I'm not the best when it comes to being emotional. I have never cried from anything serious in writing/movies/anime. The most that has happened was I teared up from an emotional anime, and that was a bit forced. I loved the scene though, does set it up to be very emotional.

 

[Sensei Fox]

Hey, as long as you feel something it's all good.


 
How's it going, everyone? I'll be popping in and out today. Gunna be working on my airsoft rifle for the day, upgrading it to shoot faster and with heavier projectiles. It's gunna be a day of battling simple gear technology and complicated wiring.


Anyway, you guys can IC in whatever fashion you choose. As far as the next step in the plot, you have a few options. Storm the castle: basically fighting through a Nexus facility to break Fox out. Daring rescue: We time skip to the execution and try to rescue Fox. Or plan Screw It: Forget Fox and do whatever.

 

[Aura Of Twilight]

Sounds good. The only question I have is where is everyone? The past days its just been a few of us posting. I know there's RL to deal with and other commitments, but I was just wondering.

Current thread activity status


Well @Newtype was also killed. @Joka has been checking here but hasn't posted in a while either. @Gunar has yet to make an entrance, but I've told him to come to the safehouse at the direction of Dr, Aedidab.


As of right now @Aelin, @ShadowedNexus, @yumiyukifan1, and yourself (@Aura Of Twilight) are the active members of the thread. Excluding myself.

[ShadowedNexus]

I'm going to become a bit semi-active, I have family over for the summer. Still going to post though.

 

[Sensei Fox]

That's totally cool by me.

 

[Aelin]

[Sensei Fox]

Good morning/afternoon, everyone. I'll be mainly on my phone today so I may be slightly slow is posting.

[Sensei Fox]

Since we're just rolling along peacefully for now, I'm gonna start working on a new RP I've been dieing to revive.

 

[Aura Of Twilight]

Sorry I haven't posted today. Just got back from watching the new Jurassic Park movie. I'll have a post up before the night is up hopefully.
