Sometimes I have long, run-on sentences for Jessica, usually to show the ditzy way she tends to speak when she's emotional about soemthing, like when she's excited or worried.

I'm also reminded of the episode "The Drumhead," in which Picard, realizing a simple investigation has turned into a witch hunt, quotes a line from the lead investigator's father: "With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom...

I love that two parter. A reference to the book 1984, I believe, which ended with the protagonist realizing what a fool he'd been for not understanding that two plus two actually equalled five before being executed. It's fitting if you think of the Council acting as Big Brother.

Hard Questions "Why don't you just answer the questions?" The interrogator asks. "I mean, this is fun and all, but I have other jobs to do." He grabs another bucket of water and pours it over Ayame's face. Ayame gags and wheezes as the interrogator pulls the sheet from her face. She is...

Hey, I believe you, and I'm looking forward to it.

Well, I loved it. Pushing her away to protect himself from these feelings (and maybe to protect her as well). It's a bit simple, but almost Shakespearean. (Sorry, couldn't help it)

No, I can see why you might think that. But it wasn't meant to sound like flirting, more like admiration. She has a lot of respect for Ammelia, but she isn't physically attracted to her. Guess she did come off a little strong. It would actually be kind of funny if Ammelia thought the same thing...

You can't? Hm... well, I guess considering the other characters I've had... At any rate, she's Straight. She actually finds the concept of two women to be strange, not because she's prejudice, but because she hasn't had that much exposure to people in that kind of relationship.

“Sparring Partners with Benefits” Part Two Jessica rolls her eyes playfully. “Please, no matter how good or bad you are, you're miles ahead of me. Look.” She turns to the punching bag and throws a few jabs. She obviously isn’t trying that hard, but even so, her inexperience is evident. “I try...

ZombieSlayer53 and DarkGemini24601 “Sparring Partners with Benefits” Part One X-COM Base Main Gymnasium Jessica stands awkwardly in front of a punching bag. With Alexia having over-exerted herself, it was up to Jessica to take care of today’s exercising. She wasn’t used to it, however. Though...

I've done what I can to reduce my reliance on NPCs. That's why all the characters I introduce, even as the GM, are fleshed out characters. Of course, it helps that, as the GM, I have at least some degree of control, so if things get out of hand...

Sorry, I'll fix that. The guy gets "sick", then dies. A lot of people die, including one or two characters you wouldn't expect. It gives you an uneasy feeling that no one is safe, especially when people start dropping like flies, and only three or four people in the town know the truth, amd the...

Skip ahead to 19:05. Sends chills down my spine every time. This is also the first point (four episodes in) where the threat is officially revealed to be vampires. Before that, it is vague, and is believed by the characters to be some kind of epidemic that kills its victims in a way that...

It's a coincidence, but a really weird one. About half of the soldiers I use are names I made up when I felt the squad needed someone of a certain nationality added in. The other half are names of characters from various works of fiction I enjoy, put in there in the hopes that someone will...

I'm pretty sure he purposely avoided veterans, partially to draw in a new crowd (and just hope the vets keep watching out of loyalty or something). And I've pretty much given up on season five. I'll still join in if it happens, but I'm not holding my breath. I feel your pain. That's what I...

Yeah, the idea of having a roleplay when your base goes through soldiers like copy paper is probably not the best idea, considering your soldiers are likely to die before any kind of significant relationships can get underway. I don't want to sound pessimistic (I spent most of season three...

Speaking of both character based food and alternate universe versions of our characters:

I agree. I didn't think it would work either. And I hate the celebrity thing. It seems to me as something to just make it easier for casual viewers, and thus bringing in more views, with no concern of how incredibly confusing it makes things for role players. I mean, if you're just watching and...
