Nope. Trying to squeeze a tri-part so it flows as one, but being a blitz thread, we should have waiting until 2 AM. >shrugs<

Also, when should Dora get the knives Yoshi bequeathed to her, and did Bran and Torsi still want her to drop in?

Torii, you can send Katya off, just wondering if I'll be butted out for the night because people never notice my OOC posts that I'm open.

Well that's for when people are wondering if they have posts to respond to, but I'm asking if people want or need my characters anywhere.

Cer, when are you free? I've got Bran wandering the halls right now.

Alright. I need to finish proofing the post I copied. The scene was meant to flow without being too long to read but the post in between broke it up too much.

@Swith. Nice recovery with the middle fingers to NS' wonky deletion button.

Giving poor Yuri a break. All other characters are occupied. Swith, is it okay if we leave for the trip this weekend?

Yep. That attempt to double collab (which ended up a single collab) was what needed to be posted.

I wish you guys would slow down posting speed. I mean, we were just doing a copypasta and even then it wasn't fast enough to catch a break between other posts. It's already buried a page back.

I've been trying to put effort into my posts, and I click the post button when its ready, and check another tab, only for it to not have posted since there was another five posts.....

The effort is showing.

Mentoring suggestion for everyone. (I'm trying to break the habit as well, since I did it a lot when replying to GT)... add more than dialog. Take time to respond and flesh things out. Don't add fluff but add story. Tell everyone what's motivating your character or maybe a bit of action other than a facial expression?

"Jacob nodded. "That he was." He said, before Yuri went off to speak to someone. Jacob could swear he remembered Yoshi's will had promised him something else. He didn't want to be rude by refusing Yoshi's final wishes for what should become of his belongings, but he was honestly incredibly sad and really wanted his friend back on the inside. He just hid it, and focused on his happy memories of the urranese writer. He walked back to the main room, and looked around briefly for Yuri. "Hey, wasn't there one more thin that Yoshi gave to me? I can't remember what exactly it was, but I know there was one more thing..."" < purdy!

It draws the eye in and shows us a bit about him.

We just need to find a happy balance between dialog and action/reaction/environment. Paint the scene into the post. *shrugs*
