Me: Good Lord, we've all been busy today! Your characters are great, Iso! :D
I myself have been working extensively on a new group with Sera, which is almost complete.

Me: Aspen is absolutely spectacular. I'll RP once my writing-fever goes down; I'm on a roll with my group, but I'm going to take a break; I'm literally over-stimulating myself.

Me: Thank you! And dude same, three characters took a lot out of me xD
Also, I don't know if you saw, but for now, I got rid of Evander. I may bring him back later but he's on hold for now.

Me: So I'll definitely go post for Raven and Rosalind, but I think Aspen would be an interesting counterpart for Jason as opposed to Mabel.
Me: Oooh! Okay! I want people to finally see that which Jason is concealing--this will necessitate the dropping of his guise (that is, everything you think he is). Which creature would be best for that?

Me: Well, the phoenix would be good to piss him off, the dragon would fight back, and the banshee would physically fight back. Which would you prefer?

Me: Then we use the dragon. I want minimal physical fighting, now; Jason is going to be throughly disturbing, not brutish.

Me: Something like that, yeah. I'm perfectly fine being patient c:
I have a drumline competition all day tomorrow. I'll be home at night, maybe around seven, and maybe a tiny bit throughout the day, but not much more than that. So I must be off to sleep. Goodnight.

Me: Food for thought: how interesting would it be if, since they are so similar in their conditions, Aspen and Lenore's hallucinations extend to each other?

Me: Aspen could see the Emotions and Lenore could see the creatures. I don't know scientifically how it would make sense, but it would be interesting nonetheless, I think.

Me: That is literally impossible. Perhaps it would be easier for them to imagine each other's specific hallucinations because they're so similar, but they would not be able to physically see them.

Me: This is a terrible week for me so I can't guarantee much availability. Last night I had practice and then symphony, I have a concert tonight and Thursday night, I have an essay due Wednesday night that I haven't even started, I have chapter questions due at the end of the week that I haven't even started, and I have to deal with my idiot of a pit instructor all week long. So yeah. I'll be on when I can.

If you're willing to wait for a bit, though, Kati should be open soon. Who would you like to pair her with?

Me: You know the funny thing? Jason is rich. And when his parents die, the inheritance is going to him whether they like it or not--there's no one else to take it. XD

Me: Indeed--I haven't mentioned his past in a while, and I deleted his character sheet a while back because it was utter crap and I need to rewrite it. But the basic gist of it was that his parents were obsessed with keeping up their image in town, so they put a lot of pressure on Jason to be absolutely perfect and punished him when he was not; and he was punished a lot, because he was most certainly not perfect, he was displaying troubling behavior since the first grade. And this, rather than worry his parents, only upset them--which started the negative feedback loop that ended with Jason becoming a murderer and, on some level, a sadist. The blustery, foul-mouthed macho man everybody thinks he is is a front created to make sure people underestimate him, and never find out what exactly it is they should be afraid of. Right now, people tend to assume that if you just avoid getting him angry, you'll be in the clear; and while this is not at all the case, it is what Mr. Turner wants you to think.

Me: The thing is, Jason Turner is more frightening than Raven. He is much more frightening than Raven. Sounds funny, right? Jason wasn't the one who carved up a nine-year-old!
But I want you to remember that he shot a toddler when he was fourteen because he was angry. And then I want you to remember that he didn't get caught until he literally confessed to it at his trial because he spun such a story to parents and neighbors and friends--he was walking by the park, he saw her with playing with that gun, thought it might have been loaded and ran to stop her before she hurt herself and simply couldn't get there in time--that people couldn't help but believe him. I want you to remember that he doesn't do what Raven does because he's not as bad as him, he doesn't do it because he knows it will attract attention--and he'd rather kill than maim, anyhow.
