I welcome all crit, especially ICness and writing style. Also, if I have ever made him OOC in any way, past or present, I need to know that so that I will know not to repeat it. ^^;;; I am also painfully aware of the confidence issues, and though I've been trying to work on them, it's an uphill battle. XD; He has an individual crit post here at the top of his journal (anon enabled, IP logging disabled, all comments screened), if you'd rather use that.
I have other characters, and would welcome crit for them, too, if you know of them. They are listed here in my all-purpose HMD post, where anon is enabled, IP logging is disabled, and all comments are screened.
Thanks so much in advance.
FYI: I am posting this from my phone and may not be able to reply until I get home later.

I'm...trying to think of some crit here. XD;; *IS BAD AT THIS* But well -- you mentioned writing style and I was reading a bit of the zombie attack post. It's not exactly a big thing PLUS I AM NEUROTIC AND A BIT BATTY, but I did notice you have a way of phrasing things that creates slightly longer sentences which slows an otherwise face-paced action scene.
For instance: he immediately braced the wall to return to a standing position
or the prosecutor demanded of it
I almost feel as if, he immediately braced the wall to stand and simply, the prosecutor demanded (as the of it is implied) might have sufficed? BUT THAT COULD JUST BE ME? *flails*
But yeah, you do a really great job with vK, especially since I imagine he's a challenge to play in a setting like this. And you already know you're awesome, so I don't need to say it.

And... No, it's definitely not just you on the verbosity. 0_0 That's something I've known I needed to work on, and you're right, it does needlessly slow down the action, now that you mention it. That's probably a good chunk of my tl;dr-ness right there (the extraneous verbiage), so I will make sure to watch out for it more when writing. :3 Thank you so much for bringing that up! <33333 The examples you gave are especially helpful.

One question: how much time do you spend threading outside of his immediate circle? Throwing him into more situations--both on and off the bulletin--like the glitter incident could be fun.

I don't know if that means that you don't have a lot of material to post for or what but try to cut down on it. It gets really annoying and from a lurker it looks stupid and OOC.

I'll also be apping Waspinator rather shortly and gave him a run here. Crit on him is also appreciated.
