    • RE: MU Peeves Thread

      @imstillhere Yeah. That’s good. Still pit sweats over here. 🙂 I liken it to stage jitters? Still fulfilling to do. But lots of nerves in the doing.

      Nerves directly proportional to scene pace (where pace is a function of scene size) and indirectly proportional to my comfort in or knowledge of the setting and understanding of my character.

      Nerves ratchet up enough and I cross a threshold that makes things difficult.

      1-on-1 async = lowest possible nerves

      I love async as someone who struggles in live scenes - especially large scenes or scenes with ‘stakes’ like combat, or STed stuff, time limits and Important Story Things.

      I recently asked someone for advice on how to deal with those types of scenes and was sorta embarrassed to do so in the first place and then doubly so when the response was ‘I don’t really struggle with those, can’t help, sorry (paraphrase, and they were very nice)’ and was like … augh, I know it’s not just me, but it’s meeeeee. >_<

      SO. Async ❤ ❤ ❤

      Getting new poses in async is like an advent calendar! Checking for poses is part of my routine. Love async. Didn’t love it before Ares. Ares makes async so easy (which may be part of the rise of these types of scenes as the Ares community adopts them).

    • RE: An Arx Peeve Thread

      I definitely missed the pose. But since my character was already sad… guess it’s okay? I was having trouble processing at the end there.

      Wild event.

      @Gashlycrumb It is my contention that Wheel of Time would be shorter by half if Jordan hadn’t described every stitch of clothes people wore. And, similarly, Song of Ice and Fire, but food instead of clothing.

    • RE: AI Megathread

      Finally caught up with this. I have enjoyed giving ChatGPT enough information about a setting to roleplay a quick scene with an NPC that I wanted to get out of my head or have as background. I currently have a thread of ‘therapy’ for one of my characters where my PC visits and discusses things happening in his life. It’s grounding for me and I can dash that off when I don’t have time to RP to keep my head ‘in the game’ so to speak. It’s been a lifesaver as I have been eaten by work.

      But really I’m here to share this gem from Elle Cordova.

    • RE: RP Comedy

      My character and his sigot getting caught in a met trap (for pirates?) and flung into the air upside down. She was squeamish about bugs and he was trying fruitlessly to blow, stare, wriggle a bug innocently marching right to her. I think @KarmaBum saved them.
