Okay, sounds good!
And I apologize tho too, I thought he was more like set-dressing because you went on to describe the couple doing stuff but not him. Thankfully you seem to get me, and yes, I would like to clarify I would never write like that under normal circumstances.
You are correct! All the 'non player characters' are just set dressing :) Except for the pregnant lady who has a through story line (loved the joke at her expense btw, was totally expecting a Conan direct quote, 'To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women!'

ROFL, love it, okay!

Please be aware you're doing a bit of god modding (manhandling and incapacitating my characters without my chance to intervene) but I like what you're doing and the style you're doing it in so I'm okay with it.

Please be aware I'll be doing the same to your character shortly. And then I hope we'll calm down a bit on the montage of destruction RP ;)

Will post later today after getting some Starfield in! Likely in the evening :)
Oops. Make that tomorrow. I'm too tired to be creative tonight!

And it looks like Kat hasn't had the chance to reply to Sam or react to the new guest in the house yet either... I'll post tomorrow first thing either way :)

Hey, if Im disturbing other players or you (akiradawn) too much we can write Deathgiver out at any time by having a tv with 1960s-81 territories wrasslin' on it. More specifically Andre the giant. Thatd make DG about as quiet as he could possibly be apart from sporadic raucous laughter and cheering. Him and the noir guy could watch it together, effectively burying the hatchet!

Also sorry for referring to Akira as a catperson. To be fair, I had 3 pages (including request thread) to read b4 i jumped in and Akiras profile wouldve been one of the first reads.

And I can't tell if you're okay with me having my own npcs or not? Im coming from a site that's more about collaborative writing than just rp, so if I need to make adjustments just lmk.

Ima try to find time to post this weekend, i got some pretty annoying things for him to do! Lol
This rp and our brief chat about aol rp got me overexcited remembering the old days of the Red Dragon Inn. There was ALWAYS some epic fight going on while everyone else was drinking or romancing. Best rper i remember was a guy who played a goblin child. Itd sneak around the tavern stealing gulps from people's drinks until it was intoxicated and then went COMPLETELY berserk trashing the place!
 
Disturbing me or us? Not at all, I love him :) Disturbing Akira? Yep! (the asshole comment wasn't for you as a player, it was for Deathbringer - gotta handle it as well as you dole it out, Conan! ;) )

I am okay - I was bringing in a new element where your character can actually affect the space even if ignorant of it :) I thought that would be cool. The cat ear comment was part of that. I just handed you the writer a lot of power!

Hahaha, the goblin child sounds awesome!
 
Okay! That's what I was supposing/hoping but also wasn't sure if you were just trying to make DG's insanity work within your worldbuilding.

And no, DG cannot and will not absorb as well as he dishes it out- but if anyone can cope with losing time and time again, it's him!
I also have something REALLY mean Mr.Sir is going to do to him, but it's only going to serve to make Dg more annoying in the long run lol

Omg, the goblin guy was so funny, and an AMAZING writer when it came to convincingly describing an intoxicated character. Was good friends with him and his group for a while after.
 
Haha, okay - though keep in mind Mr. Sir works for Akira and likely wouldn't do anything mean to a guest.

He'll be fired soon for abusing his power. (his player left, will be replacing him with a generic NPC until someone else comes along :)

So if you want to RP Mr. Sir doing something unforgivable you have my blessing :)

Oh, 'taking it as well as you dole it out' wasn't about the character - it was about you the writer. You got all worried and anxious there! And I do appreciate the check in but remember, Akira's irritated, I am not :)

Oh yes yes! Well I'm typically not good with people and online is even worse because there's no sarcasm button. Writing is an outlet for me and since ive started up again i find its helped my irl communication too. I couldnt tell if you were beginning the space-changing aspect you clarified or if you were dropping hints of "hey you MAY or may not be irritating people irl, tone it down" lol
 
I'm going to wait a little bit to see if Ayumi/Velvamp has anything to add to DG's last post. If not I think I will post something that "pushes the plot forward"...
That is if Akira isn't preoccupied at said time I would make said move.

is it fine to make two characters for two positions being the hostess and the bodyguard but if only one is open then I can make a character.
Hey there, let's start with one! And, why don't you come in as a guest first? Best way to see how the place works :D That's how Ayumi started (velvetprincess) - she's the Innkeeper now :)

Looking forward to seeing your writing in action!
