Hokay so I was picking through various posts in our beloved LJ webspace, and it seems there is a general consensus that in order to Sho well, you need to be a goddamned genius at maths and know how to perform mathmatical inductions at will.

This is possibly another point I will disagree with fandom on.

( Cut for blah blah blah )

tl;dr - You don't need to know calculus to be able to play a good Sho, because he doesn't actually use calculus in canon ! (if anything, he uses more physics) And this may or may not be an attempt to convince Jess to app Sho so he can chase Joshua all over Sinnoh

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

okay i'm done breaking your f-lists

yeah are you still documenting today's D&D session? BECAUSE THE CRITICAL HALFLING MUST BE SHARED WITH THE WORLD.

( watch me augh over RPing instead of doing uni stuff :| )

Also, even later than Jess. /yes I finally caved to the bandwagon, even though the wagon's already passed.

If any of you say Guy, I will cut you ♥

Okay so. This has bugged me for a while about group logs, but man whenever I do them, I always feel like I'm third wheeling someone. I guess this kind of arises from my tendency to fixate so I kind of find it hard to give all the characters involved in a group log equal attention. And half the time I just. don't know what to say to the other one? IDKKK I just feel kind of bad about it.

-( and while we're on the topic of RP, have something that's completely unrelated to RP, but the reason I'm talking about it is because of RP )

You know, I didn't realise just how much I'd improved with Joshua until I finished my Pluto app for Joshua and looked at my TST app for him. Just looking at the personality section alone (even accounting for the parts that only really apply to canon!Joshua), you can see the huge difference in the quality of the content.

Seriously. Just. Look.


Edit: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I SPOTTED A TYPO IN MY APP. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I THOUGHT I CAUGHT THEM ALL /o\;;;;

Edit 2: ALSO you RP-stalkers of mine. You may have noticed that Joshua's F-list is suddenly very full of non-TST things. I have a couple of f-list filters for you! If you want stuff from TST (and you really should be looking at saltybirds' f-list instead B| ), there's a TST Filter just for you. But you'll have to remind me to update it whenever someone new appears orz

I've got a PlutoIX Filter if you want to stalk that RP as well.

So um. I've never felt like I had to give crit to a characterisation where almost nothing (in my opinion. I'm sure there's somone out there who would beg to differ) was done right.


And it's kind of occurred to me that apparently there's this thing in the majority of LJ RP that if you're not actually in the RP, you can't give crit. No, no one has bitten my face off from me giving cit (mostly because I usually give crit for people in TST) but skimming threads through RP!S has given the impression there's this invisible rule about having to be in a game to give crit.

I don't the logic behind that at all.

While yes, sometimes not having context may make some characters' actions seem rather OOC, that doesn't necessarily mean crit from outside the game is false and unfounded. Doesn't really make sense to me for outside crit to get worked up over, when outside praise is perfectly okay.

That said. I have no idea how and where to start to give that crit. And how to do it tactfully and in a constructive manner. Which is probably a first.

So hahahah I finally managed to finish my 4th app to That One RP, and idk, I like hearing other peoples' app stories or how they write up their apps. Or their app woes XD But yeah, I love seeing works in progress, so I thought I'd share with you guys what Akihiko's app looked like in progress before I neatened it all up prettily like it is over here.

Okay I swear I'll stop with the RP babble spam soon.


( Yes I'm still going to be talking about Joshua, if only because he is my main focus character and the one I've had the longest (in an RP) )

Okay a long time ago I said I had reached my happy place with Joshua. Note that IT STILL APPLIES even if everything I say here may seem to point at otherwise.

( RP babble, in which I mostly talk about the weaknesses in my playing with bonuse misc info )

Watched Enchanted the other day! I don't actually have that much to say about it. It was cute and enjoyable! But isn't the kind of movie I would watch again.


Sadly, Tales of the Abyss does not work with someone's fail PS2 |D



Onto the meat of this entry: Persona 3. It works, with me doing some slightly dodgey things :|

I'm enjoying Persona 3 a lot more than I expected to! I came into the game expecting to get bored of it really fast, because while I ( Minato is a super pimp )
