I generally have a strict 'think about why I'm playing a character' policy if an activity check rolls around and I realise I won't be able to make it without tagging after the AC announcement. Ever since that one time I had to scramble to make activity with Joshua, I generally make sure I'm always involved in something (except when on hiatus), even if it's something that's backdated and thus not affected by current events. I personally don't like having to do the 'oh no AC time' tag scramble, so I like always having tags to reply to (AC or not), and it's usually pretty easy because of my slow tagging speed. I kind of think that if I keep having to scramble for activity, I just don't have enough interest in playing the character; usually a failure of activity on my part is not caused by the lack of opportunity that's the problem. If I'm not involved in anything at the time, it's because I've been putting off tagging. And aside from my usual OH MY GOD RPING IS SO EXCITING-OH MY GOD [INSERT HOBBY HERE] IS SO EXCITING up-down cycle, if I can't muster the effort to tag with a character, I think I have to reconsider why I'm even playing them. If I'm not actively engaging other characters with mine, or even making the effort to post, then why am I playing?

That said, there's too many things I didn't work on during the week break that I need to work on this week, so RP is gonna be on the backburner until the weekend. Gotta chase up some things with Gold that I've been meaning to, and I think I have to seriously think about what I want to do with Joshua in Rivelata.
