SLOWATUS

[naive_nature]

Hey, it's Gato! [Bill, Danny, and Ib mun]

As of last Monday, the bane of my existence; SUMMER READING PROGRAM, began. This means work is eating me alive, and making me want to murder children and their idiot parents.

[COUGH] That being said, a normal shift takes twice as much out of me emotionally now- I usually have to have a cool down period after work normally, but during summer reading it's extra bad. So I would like to apologize in advance if I'm not posting as much. I'll still try and make activity to my best ability. Thanks for understanding.

Hiatus!

[viiru2alert]

 Hello everyone! This is Gira, mun of Sollux Captor here, and I'm here to declare a hiatus until around Saturday, the 29th of June -- the reason being that I'm going to go visit my cousins in Austria! Hooray. I will be clearing out my monstrous inbox before I go (finals week and a theater production really took a toll on my free time and energy, sorry about that), but I'm almost positive that there will be zero computer time over there. Honestly, I'm not even sure if they have an internet connection.

Stay sweet, Route!

Unfortunately I have to let Sparky go. For now. He'll be back though! Once I get this moving thing sorted out, he should be back sometime by the end of summer as soon as I have everything settled. I can't take a longer hiatus than I've already taken, so it's time to let him go until I have the time to devote to him and his interactions.

Since I hope to be reapplying in a few months (provided he's still available), all of his pokemon are being left for Katara (usedwatergun) in the mean time until then. ;;

It was great interacting with everyone while I had the chance/time, and it was nice to get to know some of you. Take care ♥!

Team Rocket - the roll call?

[blacklynx]

This is what happens when I'm bored and need something to distract myself.

I proudly present-

The Team Rocket Spreadsheet!

It has two sections: The current members and the ex-members.
There are also a lot of information that I couldn't fill in for you, so please do edit your character! I just took what I saw from the taken pages. Edit is as much as you like!

I hope this is useful for anyone and enjoy.

Hiatus!

[ragnarok_strike]

Due to RL Issues [also animal crossing, but that is not the only reason], I'm going on hiatus until the 10th of next month. Godmod permission goes to Laguna [ragnarok_strike ] and Vanille's [hipstermark ] travel groups. Might ask you guys where they've ended up when I return, haha! :3

I may break this hiatus to continue a few threads/tag if somebody super important appears or drops, but other then that, I'm sorry. These RL issues are big, haha. I may return a few days earlier, but...

Well, uh, yeah. Thank you for understanding, everybody, and I'm sorry for this burden.

EVALUATE MY BATTLING!

Trainer Tip: play nice and keep it civil.


things to keep in mind:
→ This is encouraged, not mandatory. We will not penalize you for not using it.
→ Feel free to link your personal HMDs if you would like, just in case someone doesn't want to use the mass HMD post.
→ this is more for actual critique and discussion. Please don't just blindly praise a person or just call them horrible. If someone's doing a wonderful job, you can tell them, just tell them why, or even where they're showing off bonus perks. If someone's doing a not-so-wonderful job, tell them why, give them things to improve on if you can. Examples, links, things that can give them something to work on. Meaning, no bashing, flaming, or nasty behavior. Please keep it civil.
→ Anonymous is turned on! But note: anonymous is a privilege, not a right. If it's being abused to bash players, please be sure to let one of us know and we'll step in or freeze threads if necessary. If anonymous is abused too much, it will be turned off for the next HMD.
→ Don't take this all too personally! Remember that roleplay is a game, and crit is supposed to help, not make you feel horribly. No one is perfect, we've all got room to improve. Please keep that in mind.

→ MOD/GAME HMD

→ ALSO DON'T FORGET THE FEEDBACK POST IS STILL ONGOING

[eclectictype]

Last one to be introduced in canon, last one to pop up in Route. Typical.

Hi everyone! It's Mozart, mun of Maka and Botan bringing you JADE HARLEY from Homestuck!

She is a silly girl, and the elder twin sister of one JOHN EGBERT through cloning, yes she is.

She also has a particularly obnoxious text color for her typing, so I have a permissions post for that here for your opting out/talking about what to drop or add purposes.

Ummmm...what else...oh, Jade is going to collect ALL the grass pokemon. Also I am actually stuck on m y iPad right now until my new power cord comes in for my laptop, so please bear with me.

Hello, Routians! It's been a while! I'm Keiosu, and I was here before with the same derplica months ago. This is Xion from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, a side story that details the inner, mysterious workings of the Organization through the eyes of the Seasalt Trio. She's a bit quiet, curious, and has many layers of derp to hide the huge amounts of baggage underneath.

S'all good, though! Her previous stay in Route before has lessened that load considerably, and she'll definitely be as happy as I am to be back here! If you're up for plotting or anything, it's easy to reach me through PM, AIM: knightofcc or swordfaire, and my plurk is omnitigrex.

It's great to be back and welcome to the new people!

+1 Cranky Space Doctor

[dontpandertome]

Sup Route!

Okay, adding another intro post to the flood, don't worry, if you need CPR this man can do it. He's a doctor.

I'm Sloan, I play your local Captain America and I'm bringing in my second character, Leonard H. McCoy or Bones from Star Trek: AOS. He's fresh and new from the end of Into Darkness, but I'll keep spoilers down to a minimum. He's going to be cranky to an extreme for a while here, especially with the health care, so enjoy him! I'll be making his first post tomorrow to keep drowning to a minimum.

I would love any and all CR for him. Have at him! And I'm very open to plotting~

Feel free to contact me and to add me on AIM: LoserWithAMouth   or   Plurk: ZodiacRockStar

Hello! I'm Showan and I'm also here to add to the pile of intros tonight, bringing this old grumpy arrogant loudmouth expletive expletive expletive jerkface named Vegeta to the world of Pokémon. He's from Dragon Ball GT, about 10 years (5 if you go by the Daizenshuu...I think that's the difference between the two) after Z. So he's OLD LOL.

Where he gets to deal with these loving creatures every

single

day.

He's going to be so happy about this.

A heads up too, I've got him in another journal based game so I'll probably be responding to tags with my paid account misterbrief for a lot of my other icons. I'm looking forward to playing with everyone! Feel free to add me to plurk at Showan04 and if you want to do the hover add trick or just manage_circle add_read misterbriefs manage_circle add_access misterbriefs!

[uncagedforjustamoment]

Hello! New person here~ Officially, I'm Rynne, but really you can just go ahead and call me whatever nickname you want. I have a list somewhere.

Anyway, I bring Neji Hyuga here from Naruto, he's a 17 year old ninja with fantastic hair. He's also a little socially awkward, somewhat emotionally disconnected, and extremely not interested in silliness. Despite his serious...no-nonsenseness and tendency toward arrogance, he's actually not a terrible bad guy, and not likely to be intentionally rude or cruel unless given appropriate provocation.

Back home he was a fist-type Sekirei with the ability to kill/disable by touching people and x-ray vision. He'll be pretty grumpy over losing those nifty tricks. His starter pokemon is a Meditite who still struggles with meditating properly.

This is all I can think of to say at the moment, so I leave you all with his nice hair.

Deepest apologies + slowatus

[strongestoftheturks]

Hi Route 29-ners,

I don't have an excuse. I know I have dropped off the face of the world and by right I should've posted here to inform all of you that as of the two months of June and July I am undergoing an intensive banking training program that leaves me with very little spare time of my own. The fact is that I didn't and I am very sorry about how I left everyone with threads with me hanging. It's terrible behavior on my part and I will not repeat it in the future.

I am also making my slowiatus official by posting here. Currently I am going through old tags that I left unattended (and I do not blame any of the parties if they decline to continue the threads) and I do have some plots with other characters but sad to say that my presence will be scarce otherwise. If you would like to contact me for plots feel free to do so through a PM to Rude's journal.

Once again, I do apologize for the ill timing on my part and I do hope all of you will have a good week ahead.

Regards,
San.

Hi everyone! This is Redd, bringing back yet another character, Isaac McDougal from Fullmetal Alchemist! For those who don't remember him/never interacted with him, he's an idealist who attempts to single-handedly take down the government back home, which led to his death. So now he's here trying to take down Team Rocket! Which would be all well and good, except this time he's actually in Team Rocket. Whoops. If you're interested in plotting with that, you can reach me on plurk at pokerap! Alternatively, we can plot things out here!

Hey-o! This is Lucy (I play Aradia and Honey, and I have been moving into a new place this weekend. I AM NOW THERE AND IT IS RATHER NICE) and I am bringing in a third! Another trainer (though I still want a Rocket someday, over the rainbow).

This is Rin Nohara, from Naruto! She's back from around the same period as Obito (actually later than that, but thereabouts?) and is basically a fairly friendly, loyal girl who is also a ninja, but who focused on medical things over other things, in canon. As ever you can find more descriptive explanations in her app (in her journal! Although if you aren't 100% up to date on her storyline/the last 30-ish chapters, you may not want to read that) or I will answer any questions you might have, because I am completely terrible at intros. On the BRIGHT SIDE she will probably be the least annoying of my three in text functions, since she isn't Homestuck and unlike Honey doesn't see the need to stuff everything with gratuitous "cute" emoticons. She is actually the least quirky person on my Route roster, SUCCESS.

And that is about it! Please hover-add her, and feel free to add me @ lucylovespluto on plurk!

[silentscales]

Hi! I'm Jynxed, a new player here! You can also call me Ri if you'd like. I'm super excited to be joining you guys!

I'm introducing Snake from Kuroshitsuji! He should be lots of fun! He's an ex-circus performer who can speak to snakes and is covered in scales and has yellow slit pupiled eyes. To be honest, there isn't a whole lot of speaking involved in the way he speaks to snakes, but snakes never make all too much noise, do they~?

He isn't going to be all too happy about being a rocket grunt, but he's a bit of a pushover when he's not defending someone, so his rocket starter will totally bully him into doing whatever he can to help Rocket. I expect it to be a very interesting path as he tries to avoid hurting too many people too much in the process of making his bosses and his Ekans happy! I wouldn't want to argue with a snake large enough to eat me either!

Snake might be super shy, but I'm not, and I'm more than happy to put him in all the uncomfortable situations, so if you have any ideas, comfortable for him or not, let me know!

Hi everyone!

My name is Leah and I'm braaaaandy-new to Route! I've been eyeing up this game for years oops.

I bring to you one of the most minor characters ever, Touya from Yuu Yuu Hakusho! He's an ice demon that is also a ninja. So he's kind of badass. Or was kind of badass.

Feel free to bother him, he's kind of a stiff. I welcome any and all interaction with him. c: I look forward to playing with you all!

Lastly, feel free to friend me on plurk at: shardsofwinter

Hey! I'm Sabra, a new player, bringing you this lovely lady from the Marvel 616 comic universe- Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel.

A warning to all the MCU folks, she will recognize you, but will completely understand when you have no idea who she is. She's kinda use to these alternate universe shenanigans. Still I want all the CR

Actually, I want all the CR from everyone. Carol is rather friendly, once she calms down about landing in a strange world.

I look forward to playing with everyone!

Both my AIM and plurk are bespectacledlioness. Feel free to add me!

+1 Goddess

[autumnharvest]

Hey all! This is Levi, player of Ushio and Utakata, bringing in a third character!

This is Minoriko Aki, from that infamous series of bullet-hell shooters where just about everyone is female. And they solve problems by blasting each other with non-lethal magical bullets. She's a Goddess of the harvest who enjoys spending time among her people, as well as working hard to make sure the fall harvest is as bountiful as can be. She's also very kind so long as you aren't rude and/or lazy.

She'll be coming in from after the events of Hopeless Masquerade, and is going to be a Breeder. Yes, she's going to breed like, all the Grass types.

So without further ado:

New player incoming!

[mayushiii]

Hey Route, sorry to add to the intro pile but I figure I would introduce myself. My name is Starry and I once played here a long time ago when the game was a baby and now I'm returning! This time I'm coming in with Mayuri Shiina from the sci fi time travel series Steins;Gate! She's a childhood friend/adult child type with a knack for sewing and creating costumes. She's also really easygoing and can get along with most anybody~!

Also for anybody who plays from a Japanese canon, would you mind stopping by here just for a minute? I would appreciate it.

Thank you very much and I'm glad to be back!

Hello, Route, my name's Beech! And I'm brand new to your game, whoa.

To plunge straight in-- I'm bringing Chihiro Fujisaki (super high school level programmer yeah!!) from Dangan Ronpa into the game. Chihiro is...the type of person who literally won't hurt a fly so there'll be some initial difficulties since Chihiro's going to be a trainer. But that just adds to the fun.

oh and I guess if you're still avoiding Dangan Ronpa spoilers at all here's the place to stop... we good? okay.

Despite looking and dressing like a tiny adorable schoolgirl, Chihiro's in fact a boy. Though with his voice and with everything else well it's near impossible to tell... Plus, he keeps it a secret because of his complex. And he's coming from the end of chapter two (or middle depends on how you look at it) so anyone in the Know will get what that means.

Anyway! Looking forward to playing with you all, and if you wanna add me on plurk at helms, by all means!
