You know, I think we already have two Father/Daughter team-ups, so I'm not sure.

Then could the father be recently dead and the son just kind of goes off on his own and that's his backstory?

Mhm. I've been hiding out in the deep, murky depths of P2TM ever since I dropped out as Delegate.

Looking forward to your app, mate.

How about that?

ACCEPTED. You're new but you seem like a good writer. Don't become a one man army and I think you'll be fine.

6 pages of RP to read through.
Woo.
Anyway, thanks. I'm looking forward to the stories :)

We need to figure out who's going where. Is everyone going to Junction or do some people want to split off towards Salida? Wolf, Ivana, and Sera are heading off towards Junction.

I was planning on heading to Junction, I was just hoping to get the story moving.

Considering my app may be a bit late if it is accepted should I hop in with the rest of the group as they pass through an area on their travels?

Alright. I'll get a post up, but I won't start an expedition just yet.

You can run into them or keep going on to Aspen. Another story will likely be taking place in the settlement so as not to segregate those staying behind.

Posted. Didn't want to do anything drastic, so here's some character development and foreshadowing.

Nice. I think Ivana and Wolf were planning to set off in the morning though, using the night as a sort of preparation time.

I figured whenever the caravan decides to leave, you can assume Paulson and Jen are tagging along with everyone else who decides to go.

If nothing else, it'll save me a post of doing nothing.

Roger that. Now, I just need to think of a good title for this "Skeever" gentleman.

Skeever the Terrible?

Hm. No. I'm thinking he'd be Emperor Bill's right hand man, the motorcycle helmet guy, I just need a really good title.

Skeever the Destroyer? Skeever the Obliterator? Skeever the Great?

Fuck, this is harder than I thought.
