Well then, in hopes of keeping the story from stagnating from only one person posting, I'll attempt to come up with something.

Might be tricky with Z having set me up with cuch's char, if I'm not mistaken, but I'll think of something... Looking to get out of the forest and all, and towards some more introspective pieces.

Just got back from my vacay. Haven't looked at the storythread as of yet, so I have a bit of catching up to do before I can move Amara.

(I vaguely remember having asked somebody to help me out in that department, but I guess they never got around to it. You know who you are.

)

So... *waves*

[QUOTE=Aegis]So, I'm wondering where everyone seems to have dissappeared to...[/QUOTE]

I apologize, this month has been hectic, and now that I'm settled after moving, I'm starting a job, and dealing with my two best friends as my roommates eats up a lot of my time. Not to mention, the near every other day "get together's" involved with showing friends the new place and celebrating with them...I get worn out just staying at home with everyone lately.

There's actually enough beer cans littering the place we've had to sit down and talk about what to do with them. We'll be doing dirty statue's and a beer can wall covering. *nods* That's right, we'll stack, glue and shove the cans into a wall-like structure all around the appartment, and then make life-sized statues we can change poses with when drunk to amuse ourselves with.

SO...everything's gotten put on hold lately. All of my writing, the game I've been developing, etc.

Once I get settled into my new job and used to that and everyone stops showing up to get hammered with us I should be fine. Yet...I've a feeling the latter may take longer than the former. All of my roommates friends have developed a taste for my drinks I make now and stop by for one of them just as much as our company. They're like a 6-pack in a cup and well, people adore them more than I do apparently.

If I can find some time in a large block without someone interrupting me, I'll do my best to catch up and write more. Lately, 10-15 minutes at a time is the largest blocks of time I've had before I'm called off to join other people and that doesn't work well for writing.

I went on vacation, but in the words of George Costanza, "I'M BACK BABY!"

So... where are we?

Edit: Anyone who hasn't posted in the character thread should do so when they get a chance *cough*Mag*cough*...

It would be nice to have all parties accounted for, and also to bump the thread.

Where are we? I've started posting loads of stuff... I'll see if I can give you guys more of a chance to catch up

.

Need to work on the other story thread as well, anyway.

Well, if my understanding is correct, Z has moved you into position to square off with Aegis and Gypsy. IF I'm wrong on that one, someone please correct me. I'm having a hard time moving on until I know for sure.

I'm working on it, had to help my brother with his computer via cell phone tonight so the writing I was doing got put on hold and now I need dinner. If I'm still alive after that and haven't been coerced into drinking myself silly, I'll see if I can get it up by the end of the evening.

Hmmm... that does seem to be the position. So much for people in glass houses throwing stones huh!

@Mag

Maybe you should try posting after having a little bit of the ishkabaha... it worked well for Edgar Allen Poe.

Heh, I've been told by an editor the stuff I used to write made Poe's writing seem like a little girl writing about her favorite dolly. That was a long time ago. I'll see what I can get my hands on.

Last night, we had company show up, and I was informed that "Boobs" needed a drink, so I hooked her up with one. Then, I got screwed over by new co-workers when we wanted food.

Last night went downhill when I broke my blender out and it shifted from the kitchen to my computer desk for easier access.

I need to do chores and clean today...BUT I found out there's a position open at a liqour store in the next town over. So...I may try getting a job there instead of McStupids. It may keep me busy for some time. I'll write in my free time today for a bit though.

I can't move Amara until Sytze gets back and finishes ditching her.

With BS I suspect either one of these two things: he's gone and started binge drinking, or he's picked up a copy of Darkwatch. I haven't seen him lately, so I'm more or less suspecting Darkwatch.

Bloodstalker · Post by **Bloodstalker** » Wed Aug 24, 2005 2:28 pm

No Darkwatch yet. About two more weeks though, and it's mine

I've just been extremely busy and turned into a slacker. Bad BS

Okay everyone... I officially suck- at least for the time being. I had to throw a placeholder into the story thread. I know that Aeg needs me to reply, but it just hasn't happened. I have the idea in my head, but the problem is time- my work (where I, not surprisingly, post more often) is jammed; out of work I am house sitting in a house with no computer. I am really a little hamstrung for the immediate future. I am going to try to post tomorrow, because if not I won't make the weekend.

I just wanted to tell everyone.

No problem, Cuch. All I ask is that you simply edit your place holder to be your actual post. I made a post that acted in such a way, I can still do something introspective, and still deal with Z putting you in the picture. I would ask that if you do give pursuit, do it to Aegis, not Gypsy. I'm tinkering with some stuff for those two.

Yeah, uhm, about that. I've been on a holiday, and last week I had a couple exams. So I've been kind of busy, unfortunately. However, exam period is over now, and so are my holidays, which means I've got some spare time. Before I went on a holiday, I had actually almost finished the part where I ditched Amara, so expect me to send it to you tomorrow. Fast enough for your taste, AC?

Absolutely Aeg. I was planning on going after him. Actually, I'm gonna do it right now...

Nice post, Cuch. Just for the record, though, Aegis is human

Ravager · Post by **Ravager** » Sun Aug 28, 2005 2:47 am

Getting close to your characters now... may write some kind of link

And probably teleport my character closer. He's always having to travel

If I don;t get a post up in the next three days, I give everyone here permission to flog me publiclly. It's my own little attempt at motivation.

We want you to post, though. We don't want to try and encourage your public flogging

Aegis · Post by **Aegis** » Mon Aug 29, 2005 3:09 pm

Bit more of an introspective post, detailing how Gypsy and Aegis met. Probably going to break these up into seperate posts, scattered throughout the story itself. Enjoy.
