State of the Mun:

I am in a pretty good place right now! I still have moments of crushing self-doubt, but I've come to accept those as a part of myself XD I am really excited about the things I've got going on with my pups at the moment and there's some fun stuff going on in the game as a whole and I feel good? I don't know. I feel good about the whole thing. My RP brain sort of functions on squee and excitement, but I feel very, very self-conscious about emailing most people about it, so...uh. Hi. If we're threading, I'm probably excited about it.

Moving forward!

Charlie. Oh, Charlie. I go back and forth on Charlie. I've been playing Charlie for seven years in December and, sometimes, I feel like I've done everything I can do with her. She was affected by an awful lot of drops through last year and it's easy to feel like I'm just holding onto her because I don't want to let her go. That said, when I play her, I still love her. Her second baby is due in the middle of next month - a little boy, this time, by dear departed Sam Merlotte. All of this waflfling basically just goes to prove that I don't really know what I'm doing these days with Charlie. Eventually, I'm going to figure it out. Right now, my prority is getting her reconnected with friends and getting through her delivery next month. If you're up for threads with her, let me know!

Lots going on with Tunny at the moment! Grantaire just told him that he loves him which is...sort of terrying, actually. Tunny's been really careful not to fall for anyone since Neil's dissapearence, but he feels...sort of the edge of it, now. I anticipate a somewhat shaky road, but he'll get there in the end. Then there's the girls and the tattoo parlour. Tunny's always managed to generate quite a lot of plot all on his lonesome. I just...yeah. I love him.

John continues to tick over. His baby is due in June - he can't quite believe that that's happening. When Bee gets back from hiatus, I'm going to need a thread with Laurence. Threads with Julie are always a joy. It's also been a while since he touched base with Priestly. He continues to run the Vet's Clinic off screen. Basically, he's happy.

The biggest development that Jackson's had recently is that Cam kissed him in the middle of the Zombie Apocalypse. Because of the sort of man he is, Jackson's not about to read too much into that, but he was very pleased by it, regardless. Jackson's in the clinic a lot. He's also now got the Artful Dodger living with him, which is a domestic arrangement which I find to be completely and utterly delightful. No big plots on the horizon.

So much going on with Rose at the moment. Currently in the middle of what migt be one of my favourite threads of all time, where Bucky's finally telling her something about his past and breaing her heart in the process; she really has come to think of him as family, which is delightful. She's started dating George Luz, which has a feeling of permenance about it - sometimes, pups just click, don't they. When Bee comes back, virginity is going to be lost, which I honestly can't wait for. I'm also FINALLY hopefully going to do her homeplot next month, stranding her in Ravensbruek to be rescued. I know that Bucky and Luz are definite shoo-ins - anyone else still want their pup involved in some way? I am thinking about dropping Rose back to the moment she refuses to build detonators for doodlebugs and is punished for it. There's a key moment where she's being beaten and loses consiciousness that I think would be brilliant (if gut-wrenching) for a rescue. I am about to begin a reread in preparation. So excited, even though it's going to be horrible.

I felt really shaky there with TomTom for a long while, but he seems to have clicked back into place. He's engaged in a...thing with Marie, which he likes - I've got a sense that he's the kind of boy who has a tendency to develop feelings all of a sudden, so it'll be interesting to see how that goes. He's overjoyed to have Charlie on the island. He's working at the Hub and, pretty soon, he's going to want to start shooting his short film (so I'll be recruiting pups to be actors). I am probably due a canon refresh, though. I should make time to do that.

Vod remains an actually joy, but I am sort of falling down with her at the moment, because she's not nearly as social as she should be. I really need to focus on getting her out there, more. I love that she has a job at the Catscratch, that she's screwing around with Charlie. I should probably go looking for some plot for her; she should probably be in therapy, like she was in canon. Does the island still have a Pscyh department? I should check. Vod is too cool a character for me to not do an awesome job, so I definitely need to sort it out.

Stiles has literally had his debut and one thread so far, but I love him so much. Writing him takes a lot of concentration at the moment to make sure that I'm getting his speech patterns right. I'm detirmined not to let him get off too easily after the Nogitsune thing, to not erase what's happened to him. He's holding it together through force of will at the moment, surrounded by strangers. Hopefully, Scott should be arriving soon and then the fallout can really begin. Stiles is probably another one who needs to be in therapy. Way down the line, I'd really like to do a Nogitsune plot and have two Stiles' on the island for a while. Because I'm cruel. He's had a pretty rough year, all in, so I'm looking forward to giving him time to be a normal teenager. Make friends. That sort of thing. I love him so much

I finally made the decision to bring Joe Liebgott back to the island, five years after I played him initially. I am bringing him from a different debut point - from the baseball match right at the end of "Points" - but he'll be arriving with island memories intact, which, hopefully, will make playing him interesting. There's a handful of faces that he'll recognise - Lip and Luz, obviously, but Jess, Sonya Blade, Saffron, Coraline, a few others. What'll be interesting, particularly, will be playing him through what he's lost - Webster, Trica, the Easy boys who aren't around anymore. I don't anticipate it being an easy road, but a recent rewatch just reminded me of how very, very much I love him. So I'll ride it out. .
