Needing to vent before I talk to the gal.
Okay. I get it. Kingdom Hearts. Certain degree of fail is expected.
But this RP is otherwise full of people who understand that acting stupid is going to get your character SEVERELY INJURED.
Right now, the RP is centered on Sora, Riku and Kairi's school. We've the plot of the mysterious return of the Organization, but in a way that it's about figure out where they came from (we follow canon--all their Heartlesses were destroyed first, and then their Nobody, equaling that magic combination to make them a Somebody again.
Not the point, though. Just a bit of background. Most of the RP is awesome, and we gear up for plot after awhile: the Heartless pop up in the school. Except it's not just a few. It's a full-scale invasion. Now, there are about two Keyblader OCs--both played by me, and both with histories involving their Keyblades sufficiently muddled since I use spoilers from Birth by Sleep. AKA, I wrote it in a completely plausible way, and they're Master and Apprentice (though Apprentice prefers handguns to her Keyblade).
The other major players in this are: Lea, Ansem the Wise (currently without memories of anything before destroying Org XIII's Kingdom Hearts), Riku, my OC Blindchick and THIS girl.
Now, she started in on the RP in the middle. The RP isn't mine, but the owner is getting burnt out and has said me and Riku-player get to take over when she's finally had it. As it is, we're running the current plot, and in such a way that everyone gets to shine without fighting the Big Bad Boss. Normal students with little fighting experience, students with fighting experience that wouldn't allow them to do well against the boss, etc. The Boss Fight is more for people with characters who have major experience dealing with fighting for their life so that no one has to feel left out because of their power levels.
Now. Let's get into the rant part.
Sue, the girl, shows up. At first, she seems awesome! She jumps into the fray, gets involved and seems to embrace that her character might get hurt. For awhile, things are going well. ...Until she decides it's smart to run screaming from creatures she's observed to be instinctual predators. She also grabs a fire extinguisher and foams the Heartless.
Okay, that's fine. Riku tells her and another girl to stay put after he takes them into the principal's office. He had to shut off the alarm, because right now, if anyone leaves, the Heartless will follow and head right out to the Islands and spread. In the school, they can get an advantage of some sort.
Riku locks them in the room from the outside. And Sue magically pushes it open then proceeds to rescue Riku. After she makes up the situation which he needs to be rescued from. Now, I know she didn't discuss this with Riku's player--said player told me so on MSN, where we've been secretly plotting out the details of what is where in this right now. She then tags along with him and Ansem the Wise. Both of whom flat-out tell her that she's best served in the cafeteria, where the second front is and her chances of survival skyrocket.
She still refuses. Meanwhile, Lea and Blindchick are on their way, and then, when the group of three arrives at the auditorium, she decides to turn back. ...But then proceeds to write how a Heartless (Opposite Armor) all the way across a giant auditorium managed to block the exit.
...So she's getting involved in the battle.
I just needed to rant as I'm about to warn her that her character is highly likely going to get injured (Blindchick is even having trouble, and she's in her late fifties and majorly experienced with this shit) as well as bitched out (Celo thinks most teens are entitled idiots, the only exceptions being Lea who saved her ass earlier and Ienzo). Just to make sure she understands, but I'm so angry right now, that I need to vent to get this shit out so I don't snap at her and can discuss it civilly. Thank you for your time, and there are other things about the character that bug me, I'm just about to collapse from tired.
