stressed, depressed, and probably not well-dressed
I don't really have an issue plotting and responding easily. I find when I don't plot, the other person tacks on drama or something random to keep a thread going when it could have died or had a personal touch to it. Like 'oh ho ho I did this' and it's like, sure that works some of the time. I live in Florida so I'm used to random **** just happening at all times but there's usually a tangential reason. If someone's just adding stuff to a thread to make it more dramatic, more interesting, etc - when it feels it doesn't fit, I'll just find it easier to respond to a thread that does.

I do think those who plan too much can be annoying, wanting to talk about it more than the basics and having some plan - but sometimes (and hot take and general theys) they can like the idea of writing more than writing itself. Writing is a pain in the rear end and those who might not have the brainpower to do it, keeps putting it off, both from insecurity and perfectionism (as traveller mentioned) but also not being able to be flexible. I don't really think that's a *bad* thing - but personally I find both camps flaky considering the world is on fire and people have to work their jobs, etc.

I write with a lot with both camps - and I feel like I have a good middle ground as long as everything is taken seriously. I just wish that people could communicate more up front and the like. On my next site - I'm going to have a role on discord, lol.

- Phoenix by Netrum & Halvorsen[break]

Her eyes looked at the looming building, it's shadow dwarfing her in the afternoon sun. She knew that he might have looked down on her both figuratively and literally - the top floor office as void as the jerk's soul. She felt ire down to the last fiber of her fingertips. She wasn't' going to be another child he ignored or looked over. Death after death had been at his hands - indirectly or not. She wasn't a fool - she knew it was a suicide mission if she failed. It was hard for her to think otherwise. Her beloved sat unknown and unmoving behind her - somewhere outside of her vision.
[break][break]
Vita knew that it was going to be an issue to conquer and feel that she actually won something out of the exchange. The man's talons - her familiar grandfather's face, only held a demon behind that wrinkled skin. She knew it, the board knew it, and she knew that she had no choice but to take the company by force. She wasn't going to let herself be cowed by his snapping jaws like she had before.
[break][break]
What was a little chick that was forced out of the nest was a hawk coming back for a meal and she was going to tear the man in two if she had to. The blue haired woman had no qualms about it being her kin. She felt a presence over her shoulder and she only gave it a small glance. The bird familiar she had summoned seemed small, weak, and spritely - but she knew better than anyone that the thing could turn into a phoenix brighter than anything else.
[break][break]
"This is what you wish to burn, my love?" Her honeyed voice spoke in her ear - unheard by the passerby's. She gave a grim tsk and nod. The bird only chortled at her master's lack of chatting. She knew it was borne out of nerves, not out of malice. "Let us go do what your predecessors did and be a conqueror of this metal and steel nest." Vita kindly did not comment that was one in the same as she strode forward, heels clicking on the cement.

hahahaha, I'm out of the hospital again. Let's see if I can finish these tables and prompts before I end up back again. I absolutely was going mad in that hospital room. It was a different hospital too. I apparently was feral with my sugar being over 1k but I'm like...the size of a human floppy fish, I can't imagine myself being aggressive to the point I scared my husband, lol. I'm so sorry. Friends tell their friends to take more insulin and get that appointment at the specialist for an adorable baby husband.

hello fellow old fart. I'm not too good with bots, but carl-bot and ticket bot is a good two to start with! Sprinto for writing if you want to. I think there is also Hydra and Reaction Roles as bots themselves. I can't wait to see your site around here in the community. :)

but to set up your discord - really tag channels are used and there's always plotting channels - but usually everything is pretty normal. Seclude topics you would want secluded such as game chat or pet spam, and go from there. Sadly there isn't too much of a tried and true guide.

not me being blind and thinking proboards is out tog et me for table coding when I just screwed up a period with a comma. it's fine. I tried, lol. Am I doing simple things so I don't have to have a bunch of newclass code? Yeah. In other news Ariel really is too cute. She talks to me as I type and I'm ascending from the little tortie. God if I could I would keep her. But no, five indoor cats are plenty, even if Thor is like six cats heavy.

Notes" I will post this table up when I get a chance for other people to use, and there will be a jcink/proboards version AND dark version if I can remember. Deadeye is owned by - Arrowstar is hilarious to me still.
[break][break]
Arrowpaw - Arrowheart - nay, Arrowstar was on shaky paws, though the ground was steady. He felt so sick to his stomach with a undiagnosed feeling. Medicine cats would not be able to kill this poison in his veins. He wanted to lash out at his companions, but the smile on his maw was delicately held and framed by whiskers. He may be young, he may have never had an apprentice - but Arrowstar was now the leader of SkyClan. They looked towards him with unsure little faces of prey, of mice, thinking he was like his father. He was nothing like Lightningstar and he wasn't going to ever put his paw in the marks he left behind.
[break][break]

Scars hidden under his fur, down his flank - were echoed in the broken clan. He took his time, stayed positive - only retiring with his feelings at the end of the night, staring at the twoleg den until he finally dozed off. Arrowstar was kind - they would say. Arrowstar has a heart dripping like the rain falling off leaves - they would say. Arrowstar wasn't sure how to prove to them that he could stand on shaky legs and still lead. StarClan was a bygone thought, stories of elders who managed to survive his father's tyranny.
[break][break]



His brothers - at least the ones who did leave him, buried in the ground to rot - would not have listened to him. They lusted after power just like their sire. His sisters, more of the same. While two or three half-siblings would speak to him, would encourage him - their voices were drowned out by the flapping wings of anxiety. He was a kit to come - barely able to keep his head above the water.
[break][break]



The orange tom did not keep his paw on the gushing wound that Lightningstar's death left. Unlike what they thought of the dutiful replacement for the massive hulking cat - he was small, barely past 24 moons yet he led them with the knowledge required and lost among the weeds of the elder leaders. They pitied him and at first it made it feel like he had ants in his pelt. However, he would smile, chip like the birds, and they were none the wiser.
[break][break]



Green eyes would make them freeze when he looked at them with such ire behind his smile. A smile so rigid that stone would find themselves envious. His open acceptance of those deranged and lost sympathetic to their plights of anguish though he suffered no such compulsions started to surround him. Cats murmured in the shadows around him of how powerful he must be to leash such threats to them or that could be threats. He might as well laugh in their face with a happy smile.
[break][break]

It almost felt a level of vindictiveness that he didn't like to feel.
[break][break]

He felt that they judged him wrongly and were now having to eat the crowfood at his paws like rats desperate to please a god so they didn't get slaughtered. Arrowstar would never harm his family, not because he couldn't - no - he felt no reason to. He felt kinship with a grouchy elder or an eager kit. They did not understand what being under his father's paw did for the orange tom. Tyranny should be fought until their last breath. Freedom should be won as the pain and suffering taste a bit sweet.
[break][break]

Maybe coping - Lizardstripe would bemoan the fact his friend did nothing for his own mental health, a spring trap that rarely spoke out of a chipper tone. Was it learned behavior that he was nothing like his abusive and narcissist parent? His mother was a distant memory, dead and rotting just like his father now. They spoke of Deadeye in hushed whispers as if he had done something wrong. No, they should wish they had half the the loyalty of that injured tom.
[break][break]

He found his admiration - his breath hitch in his lungs staring at his father's murderer. He had seen him from afar, scented him on the wind with DuskClan. The rogues in the middle of the twoleg town spoke of him as standoffish - but again, this mischaracterization! This assassination of his character like teeth to the neck of a rabbit. Did no one think for themselves? Did they fall under his father's tone like little scared kits? He suffered again and again under that tyrant. He spat in the face of the regime. He bared his teeth at the idea of submitting.
[break][break]

Yet, they were so cowed by their own opinions instead of free thought.
[break][break]

Bah.
[break][break]

He hated how they spoke about Deadeye like he hated the whispers about him in the beginning. They died down - his inner circle becoming bigger and defenders feeling more safe speaking their mind. His rings of support were both vines against his paws and the ability to soar on command. He listened to his clan because he was never listened to. He coddled them because he was never coddled. They forget the terror and stopped seeing Lightningstar in his shadow.
[break][break]

He was no longer that small kit that was a mirror of his father. He wasn't underwater struggling to breathe, he wasn't dead from a monster that wore his fur. He had his own thoughts, own emotions. Sure, he would stay stone faced and chipper, always speaking with a smile instead of that monster's snarling roar. He forgave his clan mates for being nothing but weak maggots that didn't belong on crowfood.
[break][break]

Freedom was better than being tied down and in the bogs of the swamp. He didn't want to make clan mates with mosquitos and flies. He was happy. He was whole. His Clan was thriving. He may have had to make a few deals with dogs
[break][break]

All good things - leafbare wasn't as harsh, using the abandoned two leg dens to be able to keep prey stored well and outages from the wind and rain. Kittens grew strong. Spoke of his name as if he was Starclan in one cat. Intimidating beliefs of others were only intimidating if he couldn't keep up with them. He knew he would need help one day - and after forcing Duskclan's paw, he waited at the border, bees in his fur.
[break][break]

Green eyes shined as the cat known as Deadeye stepped forward. He ignored whatever look was on his face to give him a bright chirpy noise in his throat, friendly. "Hey there! How have you been?" He asked, tilting his head back to camp. "Come on. Let me show you your new freedom, friend." Because what better show of a unique and free mind than having a growing crush and admiration for your father's killer and clan's savior?

Am I actually going to try to make really niche templates that no one will use for a bingo of me just rambling for thousands of words? Maybe. Am I learning style tags again to make sure proboards and jcink have them? Yes. Am I hating myself for it, yes. God yes.

this is one of the reasons why i've been so hesitant in trying to make an ic of my own. my graphic skills are so poor and i personally don't think words alone can garner enough interest hgfdsdfgffds btw this is not a jab on anyone this is just for me and me only


I think even if your graphic skills are not where you want them to be - you can still make an interesting concept. I think the main issue some people have is - the graphics don't tell much. If there's no plot, no site details, how do you know? I see a lot of well done concepts for buzzes and stuff in rl and here, I think as long as you state up front what the site is (slice of life, urban fantasy, etc) - people get an idea of what the site is. Because we're so blasted with ads every day (tv, radio, social media) - we're not always in the mood for something vague, and some people are! It's a very attract what you wish to rp with!

Same thing with your rules, etc. I think words can garner interest, it does for me- at least. Some people are very wary of images and a promise that's unknown. It causes anxiety and hesitance. With the words clearing it up - it can really help people. We're in this hobby to write after all! I wish you luck on making an IC and I'm sure it's going to be great. I'm a rando on the internet, but at least it's a perspective.

Like I'm happy to have kittens, but christ these kittens are dumb as bricks - and I feel the bricks would be offended. One of them has gunk in their eye so I wiped it off and since they were going sleepy in the crate, I put them in the crate. No, Ariel runs straight at the gate multiple times like a woman possessed and when I open up the crate - she just sits there and meows. And meows. And then wants to toddle around and I'm just like ??? at her and her sister. The orange ones I sadly expect to be neck and neck with the IQ of a squished candy and I was right. Gabe ran straight for the wall cause he saw his brother's shadow - which fine, kittens - but he did it four more times. These kittens are so dense. Like I normally get one in a litter that's dense but this is the whole cake. Mom kept the braincells, apparently.
