Question Meme!

[twilight_boy]

Well, nobody's at an appropriately round number of comments, but I want to do a question meme and hey, lots of major things have happened recently. Like that one game last night...

Have at! This goes for Roxas and Madoka.

He's... IDEFK. He held it together and did a lot of the organizing for Emerald doing its Emerald thing. Which was a good self-esteem/morale boost. ....And then, he found out that his actions (i.e. dying enthusiastically) got Ven killed. He's trying his best to not be a lump of misery, since that's not what his team needs of him right now (and Roxas is one of those people who's tougher on himself than on others.) But he's kind of a lump of misery with poor acting skills.

I could put him out in the unlock, for threading purposes?

How's Mau, after the aforementioned game?

[doesnothappen]

Mau is kind of just... okay being crushed to a smear and then reviving in reverse is traumatizing, he is pretty traumatized! He is not able to enthusiastically suicide, even if he's willing to die rather than kill anyone else at the behest of jabberwocky. He's a little claustrophobic and disconnected right now, and kind of vacillating between MOVING ON and being pretty shocky still. However, he's feeling zen about Sapphire's choices -- knowing how that felt, he still wouldn't have rather it happened to someone else -- and they didn't purposely suicide, they tried to find the most acceptable workaround. So. He's dealing! He's also murderously furious at Jabberwock but you know.

He's also worried about Ven because Ven is a mess, and about Van because Van is a mess who he worries will snap into some kind of suicidal and/or homicidal downward spiral at any moment.

Also there is a new morning post, since the unlock is now huge! If you would like >.>;

What's Roxas's most interesting CR right now?

[twilight_boy]

I think that's where I commented. Link.

Can I just say 'all of it'? There's a lot of different things going on with a lot of different people, and they all give him feels, which is weird, but also good. I kind of love every time he and Ginger thread, because they have this great snarky energy, and he is so, so protective of her. And him and Saix, gah, so much unresolved *stuff* kind of building, from their antagonism in canon, which neither of them know all of yet.

Reverse for Mau?

\o/

Oh god, VAN GRANTS. I already wrote a crazy long essay on that, I think in one of Ven's question memes somewhere, but it has developed since.

I guess the moral of the story is that it's this bizarre backwards relationship in which Mau feels like he's parenting Selenia and is really uncomfortable with it but at the same time has latched onto him with silly amounts of love and determination. It's nice because there are some parts of the relationship that he is crystal clear on and some that conflict him deeply and yes. IT'S COMPLEX idek.

What is Emerald's decision-making process behind how they Emerald through trauma games?

[twilight_boy]

"We're not going to let some asshole Persona make murderers out of us." Basically. Personal choice is a major Emerald thing, and a lot of emphasis is placed on 'we can choose to attack ourselves; other teams can't choose/consent to be attacked by us.'

Also ribbons.

How's Ned been settling in? He's yours, right?

[doesnothappen]

He is mine! And he was settling in just fine until Jabberwock's game, which severely unsettled him. He went from feeling like Heliodor was a GOOD TEAM that could MAKE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES to realizing that they actually have wildly different values and for some people those values mean murder is easier than drawing a picture. He also thinks he may be the only sane adult on his team, and he's pretty sure he's not being a very effective one. On the other hand, he really developed a bunch of attachments (to Heliodor and Chuck) very quickly, so there's at least somewhere for his reactions to go.

Why'd you app Madoka?

[twilight_boy]

Because I wanted a character who was open and honest with their emotions and who'd easily make new CR. Roxas is *honest* but frequently reticent and/or doesn't know what he's doing when it comes to emotional things. Shion was friendly, but also a lying liar that lies.

Also, I love Madoka and her canon lots, and Aather had all the canonmates for her. I was feeling the squee, so I knew I'd have a good time playing her.

Reverse for both of yours? And possibly also Inara and Chance. Basically, ramble as much or as little as you like.
