OOC: "Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them" bit of Shakespeare there. Thought it relevant to the whole depressed characters and such. Do the characters suffer through their torment or do they do their best to overcome them?

OoC: @Ven Well, it seems like Jio and Laguna are sort of the group psychiatrists, so maybe they could help.
...Wait, depressing stuff DID happen to Laguna! Like the failed romance with the pianist, or that last stand at the Rift! Yay, I now have something if I want to inflict crippling sadness!

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"It's someone who's a bit forgetful and scatterbrained, but still upbeat." Laguna told Erica. He addressed Ferdinand. "Think I should go talk to him?" Laguna pointed to Doc Com.

OoC: Wow... Thats rather... phycotic... I LIKE IT!

Ferdinand turns to Connor and gearhead, "Can you guys do something?"

He turns to Laguna, "Maybe, maybe not. Your choice."

 

[Chungus]

"Hmm... yeah, that sounds like me alright!"
Erica laughs.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Well, I can give it a shot, right?" Laguna ran to Doc Com. "Hey, wait up!"

OoC: Ironically, it feels kinda bad to be the only guy without massive angst, due to the character dev that comes with an angst-inducing backstory. Now I know why JRPG's have them all the fucking time.

 

[Wackymon]

Doctor Com continued to lie down, "What?"

OoC: Random, may I introduce Varger to Scarlet?

 

[Chungus]

"Whenever I'm feeling sad, I think of things that make me smile, like ...explosions! or people falling over!
What makes horsy over there happy? Maybe we can use it to cheer 'im up!"
Erica remarks.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

@Gear Well, Lelouch hasn't got a depressing backstory... that he would be willing to reveal.

 

[VeneratedWulfen93]

OOC: Its the start of development(Angst) but too much is annoying. Its something for the character, especially young or new characters to overcome and have them change throughout whatever they feature in to add more dimensions to the character. An equally useful device is the reality check. A character without a care in the world experincing something to change that view and forever ground them in reality. I plan on moving Varger along, his inevitable defeat will be the instigator of more soul searching....he fucking loves scrabble though...

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Laguna reached Doc Com. "I hear you've got some problems. It's not good for you to keep it bottled up. Need to get anything off your chest?"

OoC: Fair point. Heck, it would probably be more in-character if Laguna just angsted for a second if those events were ever brought up,then go right back to normal.

 

[Wackymon]

Ferdinand shrugged his shoulder, "I don't know. None of us know what makes us happy, in truth. Other then Robert, that being having gay sex."

OoC: van! Varger, Scarlet? What do you think?

Doctor Com looks at Laguna, "Did you not hear my spiel at the beginning of this page?" He lies down.

 

[VeneratedWulfen93]

OOC: I roll with everything, its something to do at least while I play some Gears 3.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Snatches of it. Dont worry, I wont ask you to do the whole thing over." Laguna sat down next to the horse. "So you're gonna die one day. So what? No point in just lying down and giving up. You gotta have something in life. Freinds, family, someone or something to protect or pass on... When the day comes, wouldnt it be nicer to leave knowing you did something good?"

 

[Chungus]

"I know what makes me happy.
You see, when you have nothing, you learn to like the little things."
Erica replies to Ferdinand.

 

[Wackymon]

Scarlet slowly sneaks up on varger, and hits him with a chunk of wood, not knocking him out.
"Hello there..."
She slices his arm off.
"I want info, and I think YOU have it!"

Doctor Com sighed, "But I alredy had that once... all of it was lost! Hell, I'm not really the true doctor Com! I'm just a poor offshoot timeline! And I've done good all my life, each and every day. I try, and I try, and I try, and I try..." He sighs, "But I never seem to succeed."
He gets up, "But no use complaining about it, right? Just have to muddle through, day after day..."

Ferdinand looks at Erica, "Your right, all of us enjoy the small things, but we never seem to notice the things we enjoy."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Well, thats the spirit I guess, but you gotta believe in it." Laguna stood up. "So what if your help dosent seem to stick? At least you tried to do something good. And imagne the satisfaction and joy when you break through that and make a lasting change."

 

[Chungus]

"But why not? It's so easy!"
Mortals are wierd...

 

[VeneratedWulfen93]

"Gah fuck!" Varger exclaims, blue liquid seeping from his arm into a puddle on the floor but wires from his stump worm out and begin dragging his arm back into place. The ship reacts and numerous clawed wires fly from the walls and restrain Scarlet. "You *****! How do people keep getting on my ship without me knowing?"

 

[Wackymon]

Doctor Com shrugged, "Alright... want to play a game of scrabble?"
He pulls out a scrabble board.

Ferdinand, AKA, the british duck, said, "Well, we tend to overlook them all. We tend to just flat up ignore them when we have a larger goal. We never notice the details because they are details.

Scarlet shruggs, "Idono."
She slices the wires with her dark, silver tail, and smiles, holding him down, "Now, tell me what I want to know."
