Filler/Gaiden fun

[MEKristian]

I don't see her being like that. More like, she knows she's supposed to lead them, but doesn't have any idea of how to go about it, so she ends up intensely confused all the time:

"..."
"I-Is there something wrong, Sensei...?"
"How... how do you work this.... contraption....?"
"You put the coins in the slot right there, then you select the drink you want. The drink will come out of that hole there."
"I-I see.... thank you. Um... go back to whatever you usually do... I guess..."

[spudman]

Oh, the disaster of it all that is waiting to happen

Anywho...I'll start things up later today, hopefully...

[Flux_Blade]

Ichigo would be a "willing" participant if needed. I should have enough free time. Great, success at a mission brings much hatred from other genin.

[spudman]

ewuvi is mean and made me cry.

I need a hug.


Anyway, you guys in 'Tora Trouble, you want me to just move things ahead to the next day?

[Phht]

See, there's a reason I come up with plot ideas but don't actually run missions except as a player.

--

I have an idea if Anti's not back by the time the OVA and AU end. Just retcon T&D out of continuity. At the time when Anti returns, we can retcon it into an appropriate 'current/future date' for the RP and adjust what's happened as required for it to fit and just pick up where we left off.

[MEKristian]

Except for those of us (IE, Me) who had plans that directly correlated to T&D's existence...

[Phht]

Yeah, something like that is an issue with the idea. But that's why I'm bringing it up now, so we have time to determine a course of action in the event the AU and OVA don't drag out long enough for Anti to return to us.

[MEKristian]

Well, not too much of a hurry, things are pretty slow right now anyways.

Go ahead.

;_; I have so much less free time right now. Hence slowness

[Phht]

All else fails, we could do a massive OVA involving trying to track down an infamous thief... that stole the Hokage Monument.

Spoiler: show

Even if not, I think I'll try to find a way to work that in as an actual plot arc to make an appearance whenever people need to relax a bit in the RP.

I'm sorry! I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry!

Finals/AP/SHIT shall be happening a lot right now, but I'll make sure to keep going on our mission.

[spudman]

Still waiting on that hug...

Names for the daimyo and his wife arn't really necessary, but it would be nice. Any ideas? I can't think of any.

[Tempest Kitsune]

Yammamoto and Shuzuri maybe?

[ewuvi]

for the spud.

[spudman]

for the spud.

thanks ewuvi, I feel better now.

EDIT: Hmmm, Tora peoples...things will be happening soon, promise. But I also don't want to just jump in time and interrupt character interaction (if that's what some of you are going for) before it's even actual dialogue.

Don't worry, I won't always be asking whether you guys are ready to move on or not...(that'd make things less fun for all of us) but it's early still.

[spudman]

It's early for feedback, I know, but is anything moving too slow or fast?

[Tempest Kitsune]

This is awesome so far man!

[spudman]

So Anti was just here for a quick visit?

[ewuvi]

Huh? Yes, that's what he said anyways.

[spudman]

M'kay. Well, unless he mentioned anything about Tiger & Dragon I guess we're still leaving that question until the filler threads are done at least.

[ewuvi]

I do know that

Spoiler: show

both of the Kuroda siblings were slated to die

[spudman]

On what just happened...I'm not sorry. :razz:

[spudman]

*pokes those that have not posted*

A damsel's in distress and there be kitties that need killin'.

[spudman]

And that's it for our noncanon OVA.

Running a forum game is a fairly new experience for me, so feedback is very welcome.

I'm still willing to participate in the AU Sodegaura mission, but I think we should begin working out just what we're going to do with the canon story. Are we going to wrap up Tiger & Dragon?

[bookworm702]

I think you did an excellent job running the story, spudman. Although I was a little confused about who was behind all the faux Tora's, that's probably because I started late. Also, are we still uncertain on the canonicity of the story?
