Jessi's Playground

IN ALL MY RP YEARS I'VE NEVER CHALLENGED A HOLD SOMEONE MADE BEFORE ME. Actually, I don't think I've ever been challenged after making the primary hold, but if I was, it must not have panned out. It's really nerve wracking, I don't know how people do it regularly.

So, PB suggestions? I need a PB for Neville Longbottom, age 21. He's an alternate timeline Neville, so there is another Neville already in play, PB'd by Daniel Cudmore. Originally I was aiming for a blonder PB, but with Daniel being dark-haired it won't work to have a dark-haired Neville and a blonde-haired Neville, at least to me. I'd like my Neville to look different, not just because even the dopple characters need different PBs, but because his life was very distinctly different. Someone thinner, serious and nervous looking, but with the potential to not be either in some icons, would be good.

Also, Megan. NOW YOU REALLY NEED TO DO GINNY.

Comment below and I will tell you which of your characters that I've played against are my favorites and why I love them. Then repost this in your own journal.

My net is being intermittent and making it impossible to actually play now that my headache has passed, so I will procrastinate sleep five minutes longer to do this.

advena;
→ application: Hugo Weasley. Flip coin between pleasing-father-issues and personal-desire-issues to determine occupation.
→ application: baby!Louis Weasley. Ask Sara about Fleur As A Mum. Headdesk again at him shaping up to be such a spoiled little prince.
→ Druella/Cygnus thread starter for the ?? day.
→ Operation Retake Grimmauld Place. Find out final details of how and when that is going down.
→ thread tags I need to finish: to Sirius, to Alphard, perhaps tackle & finish old Lily/James come Monday.
→ thread tags owed to me: Remus, Severus.
→ kick self for missing Thursday night posting of game pimpage.
→ continue theorizing on why no one wants to play Harry where he can interact with both his past family and his present/future family. HE CAN STILL BE CAPSLOCK AND EMOANGST, IF THAT'S WHAT HOLDS PEOPLE BACK.
→ ??

parabolical;
→ Sarah narrative establishing her fake-life.
→ Nathan narrative, see above.
→ Claire narrative, see above.
→ John & Ruby thread starter for their fake-life.
→ Ben narrative and thread starter for Ben & Castiel to flail at the madness.
→ Claire/Dean log of their upcoming run-in.
→ Possible Sarah & Paige thread.
→ tags: IDEFK. Determine what still lives and what doesn't, possibly.

I am so behind on rpwrimo that I'm half-tempted to say the thousands of words of backstory I've written for applications lately should count. In my RP world, it does, but that's not the challenge I signed on to do. So, provided the munchkin and my sick blahness cooperates, I SHALL BE A TAG FIEND MOMENTARILY.

I finally sat down to look at steamtrek and it is awesome but soooo overwhelming to me. My ability to get myself involved in huge, original games (rather than huge fandom games) is kind of historically mediocre, so I shouldn't even have looked.

And aaaaaugh, I hate having to throw out a twelve page app (the four page one wasn't a finished app, so I'm not that sad about it) because I was way too into a unique concept that isn't likely to fit anywhere else and now isn't going to fit where I thought it would either. But, honestly, I am not the type to feel comfortable rocking the boat when I'm an applicant who is not in the game and the other applicant (with the concept that mine won't work with) is in game, so I just need to chalk it up to not finishing the app days sooner and things not working how I'd imagined. Still, I feel mopey and I know I'm whiny and I want to say STFU to myself.

ALSO. IT IS CLEARLY FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH. PLZ TO BE ENDING SOON, DAY.

It is so refreshing to my brainspace to have a character who can just OUTRIGHT DISMISS other characters and doesn't feel compelled to comment to every single last comment to her like Lily does. Lily is so tiring to me sometimes, omg, but Druella is like having ~peace~ injected right into my braincells. Bigoted, arrogant peace, but still. :D

I slacked off on doing daily rpwrimo updates, so I should get back on that? :P I'm ahead of Day 8 counts for the 30,000 goal, but behind the 50,000 goal. I'm chalking it up to OOC talking up way too much of my RP time this last week. Tags for Lily are more than half of the current total, but I don't do any more tags for her than the five (soon to be six) others. TL;DR LILY. :P
