Okay, for one-- I've been having to come up with compliments for like, more than a year on your Sokka, dude. Which speaks to the fact that you are doing more than aping a voice.

But I have also really enjoyed following Jack and Bowser. I have only glanced over Fables, but props for playing an asshole who is still tolerable to read. Ditto Bowser-- he is like, loveable the way you think a bratty kid is loveable until they do something just obnoxious enough to cross the line and make you all "ugh where is that kids parents".

....That is my totally thoughtful crit at this hour that is past my bedtime.

[markofthewise]

The scary thing is Bowser IS a parent.

But hearing again that Sokka is still running fine is good to hear, thanks.

[one_green_eye]

Much like a reliable and well-loved vehicle, yes.

Bowser. He's my favorite of your five. But you probably knew that. I just adore what he's been doing already in the event. And even normally, he gives me a lot of laughs. I loved his whole kidnapping Charlotte plan too.

But you play an amazing Koopa King. Very few characters have made me laugh as much as Bowser has here. Keep it up, man.

[markofthewise]

I'm really glad I decided to keep him and honestly it's been half you and half Tora that's made me keep him. After getting him back out there and involved, I can't imagine why I wanted to ever drop him in the first place. So here's to me sticking it out with him as long as I can.

[erodingearth]

I love the diversity of your group. I barely interact with any of them (even those who I should /eyes Lilly), but I really enjoy reading about their antics. I'm totally not unfamiliar with your ability to get down many characters' different personalities, but it still astounds me when you can make someone like Bowser or Lilly as enjoyable to read about as Sokka or Kurt.

So major props, Masa.

[markofthewise]

Ahahaha, yeah. I only played like fifteen people in Shukusei. >.>

But I'm glad to hear that even my less played characters still catch people's attention. Even if Sokka monopolizes my time a lot.

[greyangel]

I think you have a pretty good handle on your current set, but you already know that. Honestly I'm surprised that Bowser's stuck around this long, but I can tell that you have a blast with him (and this event is just so perfect with him in it, it makes me smile).

Our CR feels very limited lately, but it just could be the characters themselves not meshing together. I feel like there could be more with Kurt, but that probably would depend on other factors as well. I guess time will tell with Luceti.

[markofthewise]

Bowser actually almost bit it recently. It was me getting him involved again that kept him going. It's easy to get apathetic about a character you're not playing. >.>

I think for Raine, Kurt and Lilly are definitely the ones with the most potential. Kurt is a more empathetic sort of person and could potentially become really close to Raine in a way that, frankly, Sokka never will. And then I think Lilly well... if we could ever get them to the point about talking about Albert and Yuber, that there could do a lot.

I'd honestly be interested in going at it with both of them.

[greyangel]

True enough >_>;

Yeah, she and Sokka probably reached their potential as far as they go-- she has a better relationship with Katara, I think, and it's enough to maintain a fondness if they talk to each other enough even casually, but I can't see it going much deeper than that. I hope we can work on that at some point with Kurt, and dealing with that properly with Lilly would be interesting. I don't feel like we've seen a lot of Lilly yet, so I hope she's not in any danger.

[tintobrat]

Yeah. Sokka isn't really the type to bond with adults. If he is, it's the type who will actively take an interest in trying to get beneath the surface. And he can be stubborn about that, so.

Kurt can be pretty hard about that kind of thing too, but if has a reason, he will poke and prod at Raine to find out more about her. All he'd need is the ears to do it, honestly.

And Lilly I think is okay? Her last post kind of killed my enthusiasm since it went largely overlooked despite being excited for it all week. But I'm not going to let one stinker stop me or anything, I just need to go out and tag some entries with her.

[greyangel]

The ears, hmm. I should do something about that, even if it's just accidental. I -should- have tagged kurt when she was a selkie just so he'd see the ears (which would have been humanish) to set up for him seeing that they were pointy later. Unless you want to handwave that earlier part having happened for some confusion at ... whenever we can get part two of that to happen. SOMETHING. /logic where

Yeah, I think the problem with her last post was that it came at the end of the event (which people seemed to be losing steam for at a rapid pace especially when they didnt know when THIS current one would start) and it might have been around the start of lj fail too? I'm not sure. But I'm glad you're not letting it get you down :|b

[markofthewise]

I'm not sure how him seeing her with human ears would do much?

Yeah, I figured about the same. A lot of people had been complaining on like, Day 3, that they were tired of the event. And I had a Lilly post not too long before that. So I was just being ridiculously optimistic thinking I could garner interest for it.

[greyangel]

I meant that it could have been confusing for him if he saw her with her normal ears after that fact. >_> but nevermind that front, we'll just see what comes up in future.

Ahhh, okay.

I never would have thought that you could take someone like Bowser and make him work in a setting like this. Kudos indeed, because you made him work.
