Personification Life OOC VII [OPEN -Sign up and Planning]

[New Aksarben]

The search for Tsu is on!

Isn't she barred from any and all association with this thingamabobba?

She is. Thus I have no idea what Urran is talking about.


Hey everyone. Not coming back from my break quite yet

Just wanted to say hi more than anything. not sure if I should post something to park my characters or if its just assumed they wandered off for now.... *scratches chin* no idea, really.

Tsu the character and Tsu (the player) is a dude.

[The BranRiech]

Yeah, it's like when Mon got kicked out. Her characters left, but we can still mention them around the IC as old friends and stuff.

[Urran]

Yeah, it's like when Mon got kicked out. Her characters left, but we can still mention them around the IC as old friends and stuff.

Bran, why do you explain everything better than me?

[Germanic Templars]

Wait, what happen to Tsu?

[Torsiedelle]

Hey, Bran, is Bran free? If so, is he still in the meeting room, and would you be willing to have him help Tora with her search for Tsu?

Yeah, he's in the halls nearby.

Okay. I'll post now.

Just had to explain history from 753BC-1943-AD. I regret it.

[Giovenith]

Wait, what happen to Tsu?

Cer basically felt he wasn't putting in dedication, and being unfair to Torsi with his long absences and numerous short-lived "retirements."

[The Damnatius]

Isn't she barred from any and all association with this thingamabobba?

He, and yes, but it's char! Tsu. And thus she will not be found.

Tsu: MIA

[Urran]

He, and yes, but it's char! Tsu. And thus she will not be found.

Tsu: MIA

Which, of course breaks Torii's heart.

[The BranRiech]

Bran, why do you explain everything better than me?

Because you never met Mon!

Naw', she could be a cool person most of the times. She just dun' fudged up in PL.

[Zarkanians]

Wow, today I rambled for an hour into my webcam...not sure if it is worth the upload.

I feel your pain. I've been trying to make my response video for some time, but keep catching myself mumbling, falling off subject, saying, "It's like, you know, like, um... it's like this, like, she like, you know, it's like this..." I've already deleted two versions. I'll probably have to write my responses out then read them to the camera.

Two options that work well for me (had to do a few podcasts in spring session last year):

Setup for both:
Download Audacity, then record yourself talking into the microphone using it. Whenever you do something you don't like, delete that bit and edit it all together, then start the recording a few seconds back so you have the flow of the conversation. When you're done, go back through to make sure you got all the snaggly bits, then move on to the Choice Bit:

Record a video of yourself lip-syncing the recording, or
Do a picture/video montage.

I see naow

[Torsiedelle]

Something still bugs me about Mon's booting....but maybe I just remember it wrong. It had to do with why Lidev shot that mysterious man of Bones's, and the mysterious man having attempted to, you know, blow up her and Torii.


But that's a story to go over should you choose to. Right now, I'm going to check IC and some other thread.

[Giovenith]

It's a long and complicated subject that doesn't have a place being discussed right now.

[Tiltjuice]

Back. Finally. Sorry for the long wait.

[The BranRiech]

G'night, guys.

Arlight....Ushering is complete for both plays. Now able to work on PL Fridays, at least without considering Strat Games Club.

I'll rid of this if it's too blog-ish, but a little bit of some personal insight.

....Do you know that deep, sinking feeling? The one that you get when you've done something wrong? The feeling that never leaves, the one that keeps you awake at night. Twisting and twirling underneath the covers, wishing desperately that it'd go away. The thing caused by the action that no one remembers or really cares about for a while: but you care, you remember.

I just pulled one of those. On a nearly-perfect Friday. The play was good in its third (technically fourth, but only counting the 'secret' family night) showing. But the crew was sloppy and caused a few issues during the thing that were distracting: thrice, music went on for a second or two during conversations; a dolly backstage was knocked over during a scene; routes of crew members seemed off.

But what I did perhaps summarized it as a sloppy night, despite the complete and total precision of the actor's performance. After the play ended, I opened up the doors to the auditorium so people could exit out. I let a few get out before I headed on back towards a less-crowded section, trying to find my friend. I followed, and she had tried to exit through an emergency exit/spare door out into the cafeteria only to discover it was locked. She needed to get to the drama room, back through the stage and in a hallway there. So, she went through a route I didn't even think allowed. But we were ushers, right? We were part of the crew, and therefore allowed to go through there, right?

So I broke a highly-sensitive rule, and did something entirely rude and unprofessional without even knowing it: I went up along the side of the stage, and went back behind the curtain. While crew was still cleaning up.

Props manager/quartermaster Luke, a junior and a very awesome fellow who I look up to, caught me. I got the sinking feeling as he repeated my name slowly, in a moaning agony that showed just what I had done wrong. He told me what I had done was 100% improper and rude, but told me that I was alright as long as I didn't do it again. But the sinking feeling was in: I tore at my gloves and my voice sank down to an absolute whimper, and I became ashamed.

Our director and theater teacher came up to me back in the hallway outside the drama room and told me the same. Even though I never even knew it was a rule, I felt absolutely horrible to have done something as horrible as jumping off of the stage. She didn't make it a big deal either, but....I linger in emotions. Twirl with them, even unconsciously.

So, while a ton of others whom found out what I'd done through me telling them didn't think it was too bad or simply brushed it off with a warning, I feel that I've killed myself a 1,000 times already over it as punishment. And the funny thing is, I want to forgive myself: it was an honest mistake, but I can't seem to accept it. And I know it'll haunt me for the rest of my life: I already have those memories, I don't want another one.

[Tiltjuice]

It's fine, Eru.

Goodnight guys! Done IC for today. *yawns*

[Warpspace]

So I'm waiting to post till I get a response from Swith on a TG I sent. Seeing with her recent family crisis, want to know from her what Volt and Tipp will be doing.

Also, when is everyone moved to the island? Because that'll affect it as well.

@ Erucia, Never really, save when I was really young. Now I brush them off without much thought.

[Tiltjuice]

Also, when is everyone moved to the island? Because that'll affect it as well.

This weekend, Swith said.

Hmph. I'll wait to post then as I don't want to drag someone into a conversation only for Volt to drop a message of 'BRB, timetravel'.

[Germanic Templars]

You were not being malicious, just trying to be a good friend. You are still a good person. Just a little technicality is hardly worth getting that upset over.

[Cerillium]

Meh. See next page.
