Just this dude. Squeak.

[dotthedisconnect]

Tech E. Coyote | dotthedisconnect | Loonatics Unleashed

Positive: I think I respond to tags quickly?
Negative: I'm really bad about getting involved with plots and doing things on my own (I tend to be a reactionary RPer), but I've been trying to work on that with this character.

pierrotdemonique | Mephisto Pheles | Ao no Exorcist

My private HMD is here. Anon is on as is screening, IPs aren't tracked.

Pro: I answer stuff every day now?
Con: I still tag as slow as molasses.

[redcladidealist]

Lloyd Irving | Tales of Symphonia | redcladidealist

Pro: I will tag back to the end of time if you keep tagging back with me~ Or until the thread reaches an end. If for some reason I feel like I need to drop a thread, I will usually try to contact anyone else involved first.

Con: I worry sometimes that I might be neglecting or understating some aspects of Lloyd's personality, e.g. how easily he gets bored with things once the shininess has worn off.

[garbagecanned]

Yosuke Hanamura | Persona 4 | garbagecanned

pros: ah...before september, cutting back on everything helped my motivation? ha. idk.
cons: BUT THEN I GOT SLOW AGAIN. hopefully that'll pick back up after this month.

[nightbaroness]

Yukiko Kudo | Detective Conan | nightbaroness

PRO: Social Butterfly! I was able to do this with her lately and I was really happy about it. I will definitely continue to do my best with this is the future.

CON: ..... uh... characterization? Idk but if you have noticed anything I need to work on let me know! She comes easily to me but I'm know she isn't perfect.

Raine Sage | Tales of Symphonia | grandhealer

PRO: ....

CON: her voice. characterization. that I haven't tagged her to things she probably would have interest in. drop feels. y u p.

[needsmoregreen]

Bianca | Pokemon Black and White | needsmoregreen
Shirley Fennes | Tales of Legendia | shirleyhopeful

Pos: That I'm a fast tagger and I backtag into forever?
Con: I need to read my tags more because sometimes they just make no sense.

[crackpotcrocker]

Denzel Crocker | Fairly Oddparents crackpotcrocker

Pro; been giving Vat more time.

Con; I don't do my tags in order :x

Colonel

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

Jade Curtiss | Tales of the Abyss | bootsweremadeforcasting | Personal HMD (Should be Anon enabled)

Pro: Uhhhhh.... I'm not on hiatus?
Con: Lack of motivation and irl being in the way as well as some lack of confidence on his voice

[relinquishing]

First: Hello darling I really do love you.

Second: Do you have any ways to give a little boost to Jade's voice when he's having a dry spell? Like, example: something I've found that helps with Guy is just having different key moments of his dialogue bookmarked (first introductions, Aramis spring, peace treaty, right before Rem; all LP vids from Youtube, usually) so I can pull them up and have him fresh on the mind when I start feeling a little crappy about his voice.

[contemptibility]

Tiir Rumibul | contemptibility | vatheon

Pro: I try to make sure my tags can be responded to?
Con: IGNORING THE FACT I'M ON HIATUS RIGHT NOW I'm kind of a slow tagger sob.

[demonicbookworm]

Ruca Milda | Tales of Innocence | demonicbookworm
Dizzy | Guilty Gear | innocentgear
Libertà | Arcana Famiglia | foolswords

Pro: ...I think I'm slowly getting back to everything after being on hiatus for almost a month
Con: um... everything else?

[beauchevalier]

Angelo | Dragon Quest VIII| beauchevalier | Personal HMD (Anon-Enabled)

Pros: I have a decent tagging speed and I've gotten pretty confident with him as a character in just the two and a half months I've been in the bubble with him.

Cons: I don't feel like I'm making him sound British enough such as using British slang (even though he uses very little in-game) and terminology (but again, he doesn't use it that much). I also feel like I make him a little too boring or that he's not snarky/blunt enough a lot of the times.

[relinquishing]

Guy Cecil | Tales of the Abyss | relinquishing

Anon HMD in his journal, if you'd prefer that.

Pros:

• BACK IN THE GAME. Yes this is a super pro.


• Two straight playthroughs of the game in the month I was gone = best decision ever. His voice is almost always strong and his intentions are a lot clearer, and I have consistent ways to give him boosts now when I'm struggling.


• I don't think I'll ever run out of material for this man. I still don't feel I'm using him to his full potential, but even then I have a list of things I'd still love to do with him in his time in Vatheon, and that makes me very happy.


• Dear god, my CR list.

Cons:

• Guy bottles up a lot - most of his emotions are internal, not necessarily external, and he can be extremely blunt in order to avoid any slip-ups in his composure. I feel like I don't remember this enough, or I project my own line of thinking onto him a little too often (being an incredibly emotional mun) rather than figuring out how he processes things differently.


• Being super selective with my tags YES I AM ADMITTING IT. I need to get out of that habit, otherwise some of my CR isn't going to go anywhere. (I'd like to be called out on this more, honestly.)


• ...ahaha my tagging speed, yeah. I tend to do newer tags first rather than older ones, since getting on a roll is the best way to get me through threads. Problem is, though, that when I have 25 threads going at once, I'll finish up 3 or 4 and leave the rest at the bottom of the inbox for multiple days. So organization/concentration tips in regards to that would be nice. I never truly drop threads without notifying the mun, but with the delays I have, I guess it can appear I'm dropping things all the time.


• ...Dear god, my CR list. /)_(\

[chosen_gigolo]

I'm so glad you're back ;.;

Unless it's with a mun who's not around very much and the thread won't get finished (ie: someone who doesn't tag for a couple days at a time), I nearly always go from the bottom of my inbox (oldest) to the top, skipping memes for later. The exception to this is three or more person threads, which take priority simply because they move slower and can tie up your rping for weeks if they're important for development, so you don't want to be the one slowing them down if you can help it.

And don't be afraid to talk to muns. If you're doing a friendly nonsense thread with someone and there's a bunch of other plot threads that need your attention, ask them to plot out the end with with you and move on. A lot of the time I find that if a thread is waning, the other mun can tell too and you just need that mutual conversation of "are we done? okay cool."

Lastly, if there's a thread you just really don't want to tag anymore for whatever reason, don't feel badly about dropping it after notifying the mun. Rp is, first and foremost, supposed to be fun so if you're not having fun on some level, I kinda feel like that's 'doing it wrong.'

Hope that's helpful o/

[applepies]

Tsuzuki Asato | applepies | Yami no Matsuei
Aizen Sosuke | fakegod | Bleach

Tsuzuki:
+ I'm building lovely CR with lovely people and I think that most find him adorable.
- I haven't been able to bring out his more depressed side a lot. Help ?

Aizen:
+ He's starting to talk more to people so I think it's a good thing.
- He's a very recent Muse so I'm never 100% sure about his voice. I also need more plans with him.

[ladyinscarlet]

I can't give you good crit because I love your muses... Aizen is very new, and I adore your Tsuzuki... t.t

Mirr!

[evilisfabulous]

Ghirahim | evilisfabulous | Skyward Sword

Pro: I'm having a great time with him here, and he has so much great same-canon and cross-canon CR! Also, every time I mention that he's sewing I giggle because it's the last hobby anyone would expect out of him.
Con: Sometimes I worry that his character development is going a bit too fast. 8(

Wander | lostwanderer | Shadow of the Colossus

Pro: He's out of his world and away from the clusterfuck he created out of desperation. <<;
Con: I really need to tag around with him more.

[sorcery_fledgling]

Rinoa Heartilly | sorcery_fledgling | Final Fantasy VIII

Pros: I tag a lot and tag back quickly!
Cons: I tend to drop threads after awhile, since sometimes I feel like it's not really going anywhere anymore and it's getting pointless. But sometimes I think I might drop a bit too early? If that's the case, let me know and I'll keep tagging back.

[teradine]

( Amm )

Yukari Takeba (tsundyne) | Persona 3
Argilla (teradine) | Digital Devil Saga


Pros:
+ I've been getting through my inbox more regularly lately, I think! Which means less tags left hanging and stuff, and I'm really happy about that. I'm also a pretty good backtagger, and I rarely ever drop threads.

Cons:
- I guess sometimes I'm too good of a backtagger. My threads tend to run pretty long, probably too long, and I'm afraid of boring people because of it. I still consider myself a pretty slow tagger, too, despite the pro I listed.

Both also have HMDs on their journals, if you have any issues that are less general, or that you'd rather keep private. :>

[force_a_change]

Just Asakura here and uh...

Pros:
I have no pros.

Cons:
i am way to nervous that if i tag people here i don't know i'll be bothering folks so i just sorta, stay in my little corner. i gotta stop that, somehow.

Madame Red (Angelina Durless) | Kuroshitsuji | ladyinscarlet
Seiichiro Tatsumi | Yami no Matsuei | cheapshinigami

Pro: An is meeting new people! She somehow ended up talking to all the guys in dresses at the ball.
Con: It's been a while since I made character posts.

[shippingmath]

Gale | donotcomprehend | DDS
Dirk Strider | shippingmath | Homestuck

Pro: I've been generally more active? And better at at least commenting around.
Con: I know I'm not doing perfect on characterization, so I'm particularly looking for tips on that. Seriously, anything people have to say would be great. Also I'm still kind of sporadic.

[terminarcher]

Frank Archer | Fullmetal Alchemist (2003 anime) | terminarcher

Pros: Archer's voice comes easily to me and I never have any difficulty tagging with him. Having only one character in Vatheon means it's very easy to stay on top of things.
Cons: ...Getting Archer involved in anything... Outside of physical limitations, he's just not interested in most of what's going on lately. I'm not really sure how to get him more solidly into the game. :|

[bufudine]

I'm not canon familiar, but what is Archer interested in? We can brainstorm ways to help him get him into the game more :>

[pactum]

Ciel Phantomhive | pactum | Kuroshitsuji

pro: i actually tagged around quite a lot last month?
con: SLOW SLOW SLOW
