Shinn (since May '05 // 49,762 comments) … I thought of dropping a while ago, when our Gundam cast dried up. But as soon as I got started playing him again, I remembered how easy he is to play, and how much fun I have with him. And every time I see people bash GSD in general or Shinn in particular, I love him a little more. tl;dr I barely ever think about dropping Shinn unless I’m in a serious funk, and even then I don’t consider it too seriously. You can pry him out of my cold, dead, dropping-everyone-from-CFUD hands because I love the place he has in camp, with the canonmates he has left ( ♥ ) and with everyone he's met over the last two-and-a-half years.
Meer (since June '05, few months' break, reapped November '07 // 20,326 comments) … heh.. When I dropped her this summer, it was because she felt played out to me. I’d played out all her major plot points, her cast was gone, I’d heckled everyone there was to be heckled, and felt like everything I did was a repeat of something else I’d done before. She’s fun now because she’s getting back in the swing of things and that’s fun to play out again, but I don’t know if I’m going to hit a dry spot and give up on her again.
Tamaki (since April '06 // 12,490 comments) ahaha I consider dropping sort of frequently, because I don’t play him all that much, and his cast is gone, and he’s had a good year and a half? Year and three quarters? Something like that. The threads he has seem kind of isolated, and I never manage to build them into relationships anymore. In the end… I just have to remember that I love those individual threads for the fun I have playing them, and accept that he’s sort of on the backburner. He used to be everywhere and talking to everyone, but in the end, that just wasn’t sustainable for me.
Euphie (since March '07 // 12,911 comments) is oh god so tough. I just feel… boring. And sugary. And boring boring boring some more. I’m scared to do serious plotlines because I’m so bad with them, but without them it feels like nothing’s happening to her and she seems so STATIC that it makes me want to throw caution to the wind and update to episode 25 in a big case of "FUCK YES SUNRISE!!1!" Whiiiiich I will never do, but it's nice to think about sometimes. All that said, I am really hoping that I can hold on to her long enough to find out whether or not she's a zombie. P.S. I hope she is. I love trainwrecks.
Ben (since June '07 // 2,458 comments) won’t drop until June, unless Revelation sucks when it's released in March. Why? Because I want to wait until the last book of LotF comes out. This gives me a clear timeframe of “not allowed to drop until ____” which is sort of… I don’t know. It’s comforting to have a goal of not-dropping for myself? Also, I don’t feel bad about putting him on the backburner or not playing him everywhere like I do with Tamaki, because Ben’s not as amazingly social as the rest of them are.
