... I kind of want to burn my post Jimi Hendrix style now, but I'd have no idea how to properly do it with electronic format. Hmm...

by **Fate Flyer** Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:12 am

Oh! That's a good idea, Ehoron, that perhaps Feng kept his glider in the family, where it collected dust somewhere. Very Happy

Cool! ^_^ Thanks for the suggestion!

Ah, well it's bed time now, but WOW, I'm really looking forward to reading the first post for this role-play. It sounds pretty amazing. (Oh, and GRR. I hate that we have a limit to how long a post can be here. A lot of people have been asking Forumotion to do away with the limit. I went over the limit on just one of my characters alone, which was excruciatingly frustrating, since I had to cut out a lot of her information. I hope you didn't have to cut anything out too, Misery!)

by Guest Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:14 am

Nope. just did two posts instead of one *LOL*

by Inerio Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:24 am

Weeeell, It's time for me to hit the hay. I have expensive summer school to take and I better damn well pass that damn thing.

I'll be making the family chart for this OOC.
Misery: Father
Kat: Mother
Fate: The Cool Aunt
Gunneh: That brother who's rarely there(for he only posted once)
Ehoron: He can be the adopted one. YOU WERE ADOPTED EHORON!!!
Me: The maladjusted neighbor girl who never seems to go home.

by Ehoron Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:27 am

Awesome! I'm the Adopted One!

-does a little dance-

-lightbulb-

Wait.... I was adopted? Shocked

by Ehoron Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:28 am

So what' the posting order?

by Inerio Mon Jul 06, 2009 12:39 am

Do we need one? I'm sure we all have enough RP etiquette to know when it's appropriate to post and such.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 2:53 am

I would think that we do, but I've learned that I can't trust that, even here. I had one role play die on me here already because people weren't posting. I have a feeling that because some people posted too often, they didn't have anything to post after everyone else had posted.

I'm going to say that there is going to be a posting order.

Misery is obviously going to be the first one.
I'm going to try to be the second poster.
I figure after that we'll decide the posting order based on the order in which the posts occur. Like a first come first serve sort of deal. However, it could make more sense for Fate to post third, since Zuko, Nizhoni, and Wing are the only ones currently inside the group at the moment.

Hey now! I can't be held accountable for not being able to post whenever I was the host of an awesome Fourth of July party that got a little bit crazy. Dare wars, Guiness, fireworks.

I mean...I was being a very very VERY good boy and I was too busy...praying? Yeah, that's right...

>.>"

And now, to break the uneasiness....DANCING KIRBY! <(^.^<) (>^.^)> <(^.^<) (>^.^)>

By the way, I changed his name to Kano ^_^

by Inerio Mon Jul 06, 2009 6:57 am

Aw, I was looking kinda forward to the joke possibilities with the name Kana.

After Fate posts I'd probably have to post then, seeing as we're probably going with the whole shot out of the sky thing.

by **Fate Flyer** Mon Jul 06, 2009 8:01 am

I'm fine with posting orders. I'm good to post next too. I just read through everything, and all I can say is, really amazing posts, you two! Smile

That was a sad but captivating start to the story.

I'm not sure what to do with Wing though, as she appears to be sleeping probably up until Zuko attacks the Black Lotus spy. I'm also not sure what I'm going to say now about her getting lost in the woods, unless she wakes up and has plans to go somewhere? Perhaps to restock their supplies in the city? I'm not sure.

I'm going to post later when I'm more awake. (I just woke up. Sleep

)

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:02 pm

I have an idea!

Wing could scout around the trees, scouting for more scouts while Nizhoni and Zuko clean up the camp sight. Since she can fly- if you decided to go with the heirloom glider- she could probably do it the fastest of any. Maybe a scout spots her, recognizes her ((they're all on the run together, after all)) and shoots her down very near to Jianyu's home?

All right, Gunneh. I'm going to edit the post to change his name. Glad you're finally back.

by Gunneh Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:16 pm

Glad to be back ^_^ Now...I just need room to poooooooost!!! RAWR!

Where are they, anyway? I mean, where in the Earth Kingdom?

by **Fate Flyer** Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:23 pm

That sounds good to me! I think that'd work out well. Thanks, Kathryn. I'll get started on my post now.

I was wondering that too, Gunneh. I think they're outside Ba Sing Se somewhere?

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:34 pm

Hrm... I hadn't really decided where. I'll discuss this with Misery when he get home from work.

by Inerio Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:38 pm

You can do what I do and just avoid the notion of location all together. Then, bring it up later when it's convenient.

by Ehoron Mon Jul 06, 2009 5:02 pm

Outside Ba Sing Se would be fine since that's where my guy's wandered close to.

by **Fate Flyer** Mon Jul 06, 2009 6:12 pm

Alright, finally posted!

I am going to wait until my next post for Wing to set out, since I didn't want to move the scene along to where we're cleaning up the campsite yet, since Zuko still has to respond to your character, Kathryn, and obviously needs to decided whether to kill the spy or not.

by Guest Mon Jul 06, 2009 7:44 pm

He's going to need to get his pimp slap on it look like *LOL*

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 8:36 pm

Oh crap. I keep forgetting to address this. Inerio, could you put a space between each paragraph of you character sheet? I've learned It makes it a lot easier to read. Also, when you make a post you should do the same. I have no idea if you already do that or not. I'm just addressing it just in case. That goes for everyone else, too. ^^_^^;;

Hrm... I was wondering, since we're basically in a position where only the Misery, Fate, and I are interacting, if it would be all right with the rest of you if we went at least one more round before everyone else posts? It'll be easier to actually get somewhere with it ((such as sending Wing on a scouting mission in which she would meet Jianyu)) than waiting for the other three to post. If it's not cool with you guys, we can wait, but I just think it would be faster this way.

There really isn't a lot of woodland around the Ba Sing Se area. It's mostly mountains and rock. Actually the mass majority of the east in general is rock and desert.

I think we need to pick a place that has a denser woodland like we described in the first few posts. If you look at this map that Fate provided, you'll see that there is a dot where it says Jet's Village Southwest of the Serpent's Pass. North of that area is a big river, and Misery and I think that they should be there, on the same side as the Northern Air Temple, but nearer to the river where the woods would be denser. Not right next to the river, but near enough that they would have been able to get water from it or something.

by Inerio Mon Jul 06, 2009 8:41 pm

*salutes*
Aye Aye Kat!
Just make it quick. I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY DAMMIT!!! I mean, it's not like I'm stuck home studying till summer school ends....Nope, not like that at all. I'm so not sitting in front of a monitor several hours in the day because of summer school.

I do space my paragraphs, I know that much. I'll go fix the profile. This turn skip actually gives me time to make the post longer.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:02 pm

Yep. I figured you already knew, but I just wanted to make sure to cover my bases just in case.

Yeah. I also figured the skip would permit you other three to make meatier posts. ^^_^^

by Gunneh Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:13 pm

Yeah, hopefully lol. I would love to make a ginormous post, but I'm near about sure that I won't make it anywhere near the epic lengths already set.

Just saying.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:28 pm

You don't have to do that. Just make the post as good as you want. Quality over quantity. Misery's just a beast when it comes to doing both.

by Guest Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:46 pm

I'm a beast when it comes to a lot of things. Wink

by **Kathryn Lacey** Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:52 pm

I know. ^o_~^ However, this is off topic. ^^_^^;;

by **Fate Flyer** Mon Jul 06, 2009 10:16 pm

Jet's Forest sounds good to me! I also agree that us going again would be a lot easier overall. *nod*

by Gunneh Tue Jul 07, 2009 2:32 am

Oh my god...complete re-working of the character is now COMPLETE! Tell me what you think ^_^

by **Fate Flyer** Tue Jul 07, 2009 7:46 am

Wow, really great character, Gunneh! He sounds like an interesting and conflicted man. I really love his picture and his bird! Very Happy

Really great posts again, Misery and Kathryn. Aww

My character's not scouting now though, since she's the one that can clean up the campsite with her bending, so I'm not really certain if her going out alone in the woods, especially now that they're headed to the Northern Air Temple (where her great grandfather was from) is something to consider.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Tue Jul 07, 2009 9:55 am

Maybe we could just stumble upon Jianyu's home then?

Gunneh, Toph's last name is spelled Bei Fong not Phong. ^^_^^

Also, everyone, don't forget that the Northern Air Temple is inhabited by the Mechanist, his son Teo, and their people. Nizhoni doesn't know about them which is why I said nothing in my post, but they're still there.
