oh deer

If that's the case, I think I need to start hunting.

[Kuni Yasu]

With game start around the corner, and me hitting the weekend (yay!) I have time for a more serious post that helps settles my anxieties about posting.

1. I have a deep well of anxiety about inflicting my horrible posting schedule on folks and tying up their precious time slots with a low-volume interaction. I have no ability to post at work, work long hours, and live on the west coast...so my few hours posting happen while a bunch of you have headed to bed. Weekends are usually much better for availability. I also compose slowly. So this is to be up front about that and say I'm perfectly fine if folks prefer to opt out of that kind of interaction and say so. I'll usually ask before I drop into open threads for this reason, and don't mind hearing "I'd rather not."

2. This character is very different from my most recent, very sexually assertive, one, but this is a miai and the population is frisky, so I'm repeating something along the lines of my previous PSA. Please communicate. Whether that's an early FYI in a thread that you're aiming for something in particular from the interaction, wondering whether it's me or the character being oblivious, asking about something weird in my post, uncomfortable with an interaction or innuendo (intended or not), etc. Definitely communicate if physical contact beyond a glancing touch is being made...that's good PbP etiquette regardless of sexual content. For example: someone should have the chance to respond or just say, 'that's fine, you can do that' if you're trying to grab their arm, regardless of the reason.

I 100% appreciate you saying this and I am still genuinely keen to meet your Kuni.

Bring on the KunI! With a metric ton of timeslots per day, I think we can all spare one for less than lightning speed...

Yes yes yes.
I'm much the same as the first point -- I'm on infrequently during the day hours mostly, but often distracted by taking care of children. And worry continuously that no one actually wants to deal with me (or Narumi). I am trying to get better, but I understand if people would rather play with others!

I, for one, absolutely adore/d the shopping scene with Yasu, despite it moving slowly compared to others, it's really been right up my alley <3 and i look forward to many more with you, if you'd like! I will always make time for you!

[Usogawa Emiko]

UTC+1. Happy to thread with anyone

[Kaito Oubaihime]

No worries Kuni sama You got this!
We understand time zones... So yeah...
Most of us are patient enough.

Hell, I'm bummed that I missed you completely on Day 0
