Game-wide HMD
Welcome to the MarinaNova HMD! This is optional, but encouraged.

• List your characters for which you'd like feedback. We have a form below if you like forms!

• Leave your tactful and considered thoughts, questions, concerns, praise, suggestions, etc. for others.

We strongly encourage you to make this a dialogue. Find out what went into actions, decisions, and characterization and you may come to understand it better. Hopefully, you'll also be in the best position to clearly communicate your own concerns. Results will be more satisfactory for everyone if one person isn't on the offensive while the other is on the defensive.

Avoid leaving someone a wall of text. This can be intimidating even with the most careful of wording and best of intentions.

Don't gang up on someone. You may have a different way of wording something, but unless you have something new to contribute, consider letting it go if there are already others saying it.

Be constructive and considerate.

• Since there is no plotting meme during months with an HMD, please feel free to do that here too.

• Contact a mod if you have any problems.

Anonymous commenting is on. It will be turned off if there is abuse.

Please feel welcome to leave game and mod feedback and suggestions here.

Player name: Stella

Character: Deanna Troi | Star Trek: TNG |

counselled | ☑
Comments: I know I have been a failflake at everything since my hiatus in May, but I'm hoping Deanna's gotten enough of a jumpstart to get back in the game now. I'm also going to make more of an effort to do things with her this month, so if anyone wants her for anything, I am more than happy to toss her around. She needs things to do. Character-wise, I'm always a bit shaky with her, so any ideas / encouragement / critiques of how she's reacting / acting / thinking are welcome! I think that's it.

tl;dr so not confident with her ever.

Keep poking Nathan! No, really. Just from a meta perspective, I think that Deanna is in a better position to get somewhere with Nathan than anyone else.

I think you're writing her well. I can hear her voice and weird kind-of-an-accent accent when I read your tags, she seems to be picking up on just the right amount of emotions (including the obvious ones that make me want to scream YES I CAN SENSE HIS HOSTILITY TOO DEANNA HE KILLED SOMEONE when I watch TNG), and her empathy comes across clearly. You've captured her general calmness, too, so I say you're doing a fantastic job with her.

And she will! As long as I have her here (and you have Nathan), she will absolutely be interested in him and want to help him, so I'm always up for doing things. I might be slow as I feel like I'm kind of blundering my way through things sometimes, but she's kind of taking him as her personal project. And if there's ever anything you'd like to see with them or think Deanna should do / say / sense / whatever with regards to him, please do let me know!

Oh good. Her voice is a little weird. I mean, I love it but it's tricky to get word choice sometimes. But good! That makes me feel a lot better. I've always been a bit unsure about how much is too much or if she isn't sensing enough. (Sometimes she's really useful and sometimes it really is super obvious XD) But thank you and I will just keep pushing on and hope it keeps working :)
