Thanks. ^-^ Turns out the flooding's too bad to go today, so I have more time to study. Phew!
Of course! And I understand completely; I tend to run out of steam when it concerns things I haven't been centered on in a while as well. I hope your computer's okay!
Ah, well, winging it is my specialty. No worries there~ I think I had a more concrete reason to detain her, but I thought of it as I was going to sleep and was too tired to make note of it. Tsk. I'm completely open to that~ Seven will be free to encounter Donovan or Mikael, and I plan on sending my Lady Bikers after him so that'll be fun. Yeah I do that...I never thought I'd be particularly skilled at mystery writing until I got an outsider's view of my chapters/posts and realized how obscurely I write...Not even Sherlock Holmes could best me! Anyway- Ah, what exactly is confusing? I tend to reference earlier posts so maybe it's that?
Sure! I'm looking forward to finding out what her mission is. I've already started on Seven's response so let's see how much more I can get done...
Hm, it's a bit spotty still, but I've probably fleshed them out the most because they have Eleven & his Anti-Siblings. Are you at liberty to ask me exactly what you want to know or do you want to keep Evanna's connection a secret for now? I don't mind~ Just wondering if there are any particulars you need to know. I have the basics established for now- Icarus Corp is a government-independent organization made up of scientists from all over the world and operating in different countries. Their goal is pretty cliche for now- Capturing, creating, and learning from 'supernatural' beings. Their umbrella goal is like. Making an evil army or something? Although they started out with curiosity, they gradually became more power hungry. They've had some dealings with the Witch & the government in the past but kind of hate all other factions.
Neither can I. On both accounts. ^^'

-Tiptoes in- Heya guys. Sorry for being so absent lately! I've gotten really caught up in immersing myself in my art, so much that I keep inadvertently neglecting this thread. I should have less to disract me for here now, though, so prepare for more spamming later tonight. Baebs, I read your new post and I really really do desire to be as skilled as you are when "rusty." Seriously, I saw no such rustiness you claim to have; your writing was just as top-notch as ever. Ten makes for such erratic posts, and it's fantastic. Also, hi to Pumpkin and Tiger. How are you two doing? Lynx, did you change your profile picture? I love it! Did you draw that masterpiece? Indeed I did! She's my favorite cat OC, her named Ilex and that's a ref for her shadow form and normal form. :3.

It's good to be back! ^^ My muse has just been low. Hopefully it starts to get better soon enough for me to finish up on roleplaying. I think I still need to respond to something on the rp page. I'm doing alright, just a lot going on right now. Stress is probably the only thing I can honestly say right now. It's just...a lot of stress, heh. But nothing I can't figure out eventually. I hope you are all doing well! I did, in fact, draw my profile pic! It's Nagito Komaeda from Danganronpa 2. Thanks~ I love y'all's new profile pics, too! ^^

As far as writing goes:
I was hoping Akili and Oakley could make it to the bridge before Ten is subdued, that way all four characters can officially meet. And Ten will likely make a bad impression tsk
Lior is technically stuck at the moment but I suppose I can work around it by continuing his encounter with the Assassin Twins and rounding it up by introducing yet more characters. Honestly...
I can leave off Sylvius for a while, because he'll show up later.
Aaaa I'm sorry Bee! Tsvetan is not responding to my insistent prodding and what I've written so far is only partly salvageable. He'll by a while....Thus the Lady Bikers have yet to be introduced.
I don't have any inspiration for Eleven yet...
But another of my characters has clawed his way out of the garbage and I might send him PG's way. I feel bad that you haven't been able to extensively roleplay your other characters yet. ^^'

It's flooding where you are? How bad is it? At least there's that, but... flooding?
Thanks ^^ I'm refocusing. My computer's totalled. We managed to salvage the hard drive, so thankfully I'll be able to recover the mountains of unfinished animation and art I had failed to backup to my Drive, but it still means my digital art will come to a complete halt. He was a good laptop and we will miss him dearly. Because he carried all my video games and art programs
I completely understand that! I also have a horrid tendency to plan in great detail plot ideas or character backstories in the middle of the night, only to half-forget them in the morning. x3 If you don't remember, I'm sure we'll figure something out. Ooh, that would be fun. I'm not sure how I'd work about Evanna running into one of your characters just yet, but I could think something out if anybody wants to meet up.
I wanna know more about these Lady Bikers Gah, no, sorry, it's not your fault. I have trouble absorbing even the most basic of facts the first or second read through, so I'm just going to go back and actually focus, haha. ^^', You don't need to explain anything; I'm sure what I'm missing was there in your posts somewhere.
Ah, yes. And don't worry about getting back to me with Seven! You're fine!
Thank you! I do have a few specific questions. Feel free to go off on tangents while answering, because I really could use any information you've collected. Also, I had a whole "making a supernatural army" thing in mind, so I'm glad that I still get to work that into my story.
Okay. Thanks for taking the time to help me out. My questions:
Where, if anywhere, does the organization mainly reside? I understand that they operate in many places, but are there more well-known areas they're settled in? (I'm sorry. I know nothing about government or organizations, so I'm probably sounding idiotic xD)
How well-known are they? Do some people think they're a myth, or are they known around the world as a real thing to be feared? Are they completely incognito? Are there conspiracy theorists going nuts with disapproved reports of people with powers going missing? I'm just trying to get a basic idea of how the public sees these guys. Hope I'm making sense. (That reminds me of another, more general question that's been teasing at my brain. This one is directed towards everybody. How are supernaturals viewed in society? Do most or all people know they exist? If so, how are they treated? Is there an X-men thing going on? Are they immediately disposed of upon discovery? Are they accepted into the general population? I mean, it's rather hard for me to believe that normal humans wouldn't know about them. For crying out loud, we already have Lior chasing his hologram buddies into cafes and Lloyd making fun little rings of fire out in public xD)
Back to Icarus questions.
Even though they're government-dependent, you say that Icarus does do dealings with the goverment occasionally. How often would you say this happens, and what kinds of dealings do you imagine being made?
What kind of mutants are Icarus looking for? I've been running under the assumption that they would opt for stronger ones or those with unique or potentially powerful mutations. How do they generally obtain these mutants? How far will they go to get what they want?
I feel like I have more questions, but I can't think of ythng further at the moment. Would it be okay to bombard you later if I think of anything?
On another note... You drew that, PG? That's.. amazing. I love your style. I'm sorry to hear you're so stressed out. You can always send me a private message if you ever want to rant or chat. ^^
Don't worry about getting the reply in! Seriously, Baes, it's fine and you're fine and I really don't mind.

Oh! Where we live is safe, I think it's just not safe to drive where we were going, especially with such heavy rain and it pretty much being out in the middle of nowhere. By my account, anyway.
That's a relief. ^^ I know how it feels to lose tons of data in one fell swoop....What happened? If you don't mind my asking? Ooh, what kinds of video games? Downloads? Or disks? You make animations too? That's awesome~
She doesn't have to~ There's quite a bit to work out first.
They're sisters and none of them have offensive powers so I'm thinking brass knuckles or something 'Kay~ I'm always open for questioning, though.
^-^ Right!
Of course!
For your first question: I'm assuming we're all in America, so I have a few ideas in mind for their main bases...Despite living here for roughly 5+ years, I still barely know anything about this country -cough- Anyway! I'm thinking they have perhaps two secret bunkers -so far- but their main facility is in Seattle. Possibly. I should do some research and maybe I'll change it later... You don't sound idiotic at all! How could you? I'm the one fudging everything. ^^'
As for being well-known, I don't know how supernaturals are meant to be viewed in this world- or if they're even viewed at all- so I've bridged this questioning gap by having Icarus Corp hide in plain sight. If supernaturals are a common thing, then they gently advertise helping them with their powers. If not, then they bring them in by guile or force. There are urban legends and such about them. They masquerade as a board of benign scientists who make vague promises of 'bettering humanity' by doing experimental medicine and of course they'll pay you and your family handsomely for so graciously volunteering as a test subject. They're known around the world, but are mostly regarded with either acceptance or wariness. They get a few complaints about shady dealings but swiftly and neatly shut them down. Makes sense~ Excellent questions that I probably should have addressed earlier.
Again, I feel that it's up to PG to determine whether this is an X-Men type thing- Though it was kinda the initial vibe I was going for xj- But the government mostly cleans up after them. They have their own teams of supernaturals. Some of whom will be introduced shortly. I really need to stop...
Not terribly often because they're wary of each other, but they occasionally trade information or even agents for the sake of putting down a mutual enemy. Ten, the Purifiers, or the Witch on occasion. Y'see, the government is divided on whether to kill all supernaturals or just force them all into being soldiers because hey. It's America and they want another war. Icarus Corp doesn't exactly want a war, they just want more power to do whatever they want, so the two factions are in a constant power struggle. I'm still working things out, but they might actually be on the cusp of another deal, though. That's actually why Sylvius is in town. He doesn't like to act as a spy, but he's making a few inquiries.
You are correct. They want power, but there are some amongst them that know power isn't just how badly you can hurt someone. They'd even take in someone who can fold paper airplanes with their mind if that person could be brainwashed into joining them. But then there are others who see fit to 'cull' all supernaturals with unimpressive abilities because they believe that they're a waste of life and don't want Ten or the Witch to find them instead. Still others see fit to take those with 'useless' powers and use them as fodder for the strong. Servants, target practice, low-level grunts. It's a mixed pot of evil. Icarus Corp masquerades as a benign organization that does charity work and pays for health & mental health care. Sometimes they can trick a mutant into being a patient. Sometimes they'll pay off the people around the mutant to hand them over. All of their methods are covert, they only use force when dealing with a very high level threat. Sending LIVE & EVOL after Lior was a special case. Not that I'm implying my characters are any better/more important than anyone else's! It's part of my plot. Thing. ^^'
And on the previous subject: Once again, I'm still working out the details, but I think Icarus Corp will have three separate branches of leadership who are meant to work together but mostly argue and play immature pranks on each other. Also! The organization's symbol-thing is three pairs of white golden gilt wings with a sun in the background. They're all in various stages of opening. Folded, half-unfurled, and then fully spread out. It's meant to represent evolution.
Of course! Bombard away~ Your asking questions helps me organize my thoughts.
Thanks. ^^

Feel like I should also mention: All of the other factions are internationally based as well, so they too have eyes everywhere. The Purifiers started in America and their primary bases are both there and in Britain. The Witch's HQ is hidden somewhere in the Netherlands. The 'Government' primarily refers to the American one but every country won't be dealing with mutants quite the same way. Icarus Corp- No one knows where it started for sure but it's the most easy to follow of all the other factions. At least on the surface.
As for Wysten, I've decided that he's only recently gotten into this whole 'Avengers Initiative' gig mostly to clean up after myself but as an English businessman, his true home and the bulk of his operations would be in England. He already owned property in America though, and is establishing things there. He isn't quite as well-established as the others, he's only just found Dotty and she's really helping him out on the technology front- But he does have operatives of his own in quite a few places as well.
Also! If anyone has anything to suggest or add, feel free! I'm not running the show yet I feel like I gave that impression- Sorry!

If anyone would subdue Ten I think it would be Akili, she's fully capable of using her powers to fight and wouldn't mind knocking out the guy who attacked her friend ^-^

Ah, I was planning to have Ten 'subdued' by one of Sylvi's ghosts before or shortly after the girls arrive. Ten wouldn't fight Akili -probably- because she's one of the people he's trying to protect.

Rockabye.Baebsae: Thank you so much! ^^ My characters are kinda just chillin' in pause mode at the moment, lol, so it's all good! I believe Mikel is still wandering the streets...? I think that's what he was doing last. I have other characters, but I'll only use them if there's a moment in the story to use them or if someone needs another character to rp with. x3 I can have Oakley try to follow the other two with Akili...? Or when they meet up, try to find out what's going on? She can always use the powers of the forest to help her and Akili out and to maybe subdue Ten (but only because they don't know what's going on, or at least Oakley's confused lol so she doesn't know he's on their side) averysmallbumblebee: Aw, thank you! ^^ I try to mess around with different versions of my style, lol. And thanks for the offer! I'll make sure to message you if I ever need to talk! ;;

Oh, alright. That's good to know. ^^' Glad to hear your safe and I really hope that the roads clear up soon enough, if they haven't already.
You've lost a computer and been unable to recover the data before? Ours just crashed and died while I was trying to upload a speedpaint. Its days have been numbered for a few months now, so nobody was too taken by surprise, thankfully. I'd backed up most of my drawings to my Drive already. Most of my games are on Steam. So, downloads ^^ Do you enjoy any digital games? Mhm, not often; they take a LOT of concentration and dedication, and between my general inability to pay attention to one project for too long and the fact that I share a computer with all my brothers, I don't try it out a lot. Have you ever toyed with animation? ^^
Brass knuckles are better than any power they could possibly have. As long as they carry a surplus of sass as well.
Thank you for all these answers! I haven't thought of anymore specific questions yet, but I'll hurl them as I get them. As for your answers...
That does bring up another question, one I've asked before: where is this story set? I'm really curious? Neither do I, my dude Seattle sounds like a pretty neat place for a bunker. Why did you choose that location? You evidently know more about organizations than I do, haha. I'm simply pulling ideas out of Stranger Things and pretending that's how goverment works xD On that note, I recently realized this roleplay is like a hybrid of Stranger Things, X-Men, and the Avengers
Ahh, that's just what I wanted to hear! This is fitting in really well with my planned stuff which I'll probably have to explain to some extent once I'm not exhausted. I also just reminded myself that I was going to give you a partial explaination of Evanna's powers... dangit I need to stop forgetting these things.
No, don't stop! Keep flooding the thread with your quirky characters!
What constitutes as a high-level threat in their eyes? How far might they go if they wished, say, to obtain a very powerful, unwilling, but high-risk mutant? What kind of experiments do they usually do? What are some pf their goals with these experiments? Do they want to learn to make themselves, or others, mutants? Developing tests for differentiating normal humans from those with powers by figuring out the differences in DNA? I'm assuming they're aiming for a general deeper understanding of powers, but that doesn't necessarily warrant or require human experimentation. Are there other goals besides collecting an army? I'm assuming there are. I honestly don't really know what I'm talking about. Hope I not asking really dumb questions.
Oooh, that's awesome. Ahh, so symbolic. How do you think of these things?
Thanks again for answering all my questions! Sorry again I couldn't think of things to say in response to each thing you said, but it was all really helpful! I'm just really tired after marathoning Stranger Things with my mom and should not be speaking to people
PG: I absolutely adore it! So much contrast in the picture; and that composition! It's so simple, but it works. The placement of the text is brilliant; first my gaze is drawn to the middle, his eyes, but then my focus is dragged there, and... ahhh, it's brillant. The color palette, with the purple to bring focus to the middle of the image, is just so well done! And that lineart... wow! It's almost stiff, jagged, and it only brings more to the atmosphere that the color palette and everything else provided! Ahhh, I can't express how beautiful it is and how talented you are. Sorry, I'll stop gawking now. It's just... amazing. I really look forward to hopefully seeing your art in the future.
Alright. I want you to know that you always have someone to chat up if the need arises ^^
Oh, and, one more thing before I head to bed: are the mutants in the roleplay known to exist by society? If so, how are they viewed by the general population?

Of course~
Sure! I'd rather wait until that happens to write again, so I'll just wait for Akili and Oakley to make a move. ^^
The weather here is mercurial, so everything cleared up in like, a day. I appreciate your concern, though~
More like I lost years-worth of data on two separate journal/writing apps. One for plots and one for characters. I was so shocked that I was pretty much numb for a while. x3 Oh? That's interesting. Was it an old laptop? That's fortunate! And I adore visual novels and the like. My sister has a Steam, and hers is full of nonlinear games with random cutesy ones thrown in. Nope! Partly for your initial reason and partly because it would be an animated blob-ish figure...I had an animation app on my iPad for a bit, but all I could animate was misshapen rain. ^^'
There will be so much sass. I hope
Thank you for the questions~
So am I. xp And as previously stated, I don't know enough to make any educated guesses and I'm a bit of a perfectionist that way so I cannot. Whenever I roleplay in the 21st century my setting is a fictional town/city based off of a real one. Generally. I mean I know places like New York and California...
I've always wanted to use 'my dude' xj Ah. It's actually not as interesting or well-thought out as you might think. My first thought was that my dad was working there so if I had any questions about it I could probably ask him. Second, I kinda know what it looks like from tv. And third, I figured I'd put the bad guys in Washington because the president's in Washington DC I don't know...Also my dad mentioned dreary weather and I just felt that fit. ^^'
I can assure you I do not. xp Oh! I was intending to watch Stranger Things. ^^ My sister and brother recommended it so I'll have to get to that soon. I'm not very good at binge-watching... Haha, that's more or less intentional. Ten can be both Captain America and the Hulk.
You and me both. ^^'
But there are too many! x3 I'm thinking about coloring the various factions with some key characters but letting everyone else be background noise. Pretty much. Except the leaders...Poor Argent is a bit too deviously OP to be a hero and I'd love to write him again...
Hm. There are three leaders so they might have differing views on the concept of a threat...But I think they can unanimously agree that anyone who is a risk to their organization needs to be dealt with. So a powerful mutant who knows something they're trying to keep secret would be seen as a direct threat. If you're wondering what kind of power they'd be interested in, it's not limited to the amount of negative impact it can cause. They're also interested in rare powers, or even relatively weak ones that can be controlled really well. And as for how far they'll go, it depends on why that mutant is unwilling. Is it because they know not to trust Icarus? Or is it simply because they don't believe they need them? For the former, I can imagine a scenario in which they do everything they can to alienate their target. They could do this by telling everyone that they're a criminal with a high bounty, making them seem like a significant threat in the eyes of the public so that when one of their suppression teams show up to drag them away, no one minds. That actually seems like it might happen fairly often if not for the government occasionally stepping in...In any case, money is not an issue for Icarus Corp so they have quite a few options. As I've said before, though, they don't want to show their hand before it's time and prefer more covert methods. In the case of their target not knowing their true nature, such covert methods could include sending in multiple undercover operatives to earn their trust and influence their decisions or trick them into being captured. Oh great, I just came up with a bunch of spy characters now. ^^' There's no escaping it
Okay so. Their experiments currently center around control. They want a way to control both created and born mutants. Icarus Corp is also capturing more ordinary mutants so that they can use their DNA to make even stronger ones. The only people they'll turn into mutants are themselves, however. Goals...I'm still working on individual goals for everyone. ^^' World domination is so hackneyed. At least if there isn't a good reason for it... Yep! They're doing that too. They want to be able to predict who'll be born a mutant so they've established tests in multiple countries. They're like ordinary checkups so no one really minds. It's as close to free healthcare as the US is going to get for now. xj They started out wanting a deeper understanding of powers. ^^' It kinda snowballed from there. Yes. I just need to figure them out... Not at all! I need to think. ^^'
Exhaustion and way too much tea, probably. x3 But honestly I just get randomly inspired. ^^'
Very welcome~ And I don't mind at all. Nice. ^^ Did she like it too? I don't think my parents watched it yet.

Ah, alright. I'm quite surprised you even got enough rain for flooding over there; we've been nested in the hundred degrees for the past few weeks.
Oh gosh, that's awful. How long ago was it? Did you manage to recover anything? Yeah, it was pretty old. We'd made our peace with his death long ago x3
Hmm, understandable. Animation is so difficult, man.
Haha, I completely get how being a perfectionist often impairs your ability to make uneducated guesses. It's nice to have all your facts straight, anyway
Thank you so much for the answers to all my questions! All of this is EXTREMELY helpful in my plot building, so I really appreciate it. I'll notify you if I think of more.

Just looked through the older roleplay posts. Found a few art requests I had forgotten about. Sorry, Baebs and Aurora! Anyway, here's that other picture of Aella I promised you, Rora. Sorry for completely forgetting to do it. sta.sh/0p3vajejsaaShe's such a lovely bab ^^ Also, to those who are interested, I've been so inactive due to a waterfall of requests/commissions and summer projects and I may or may not have been drawing four pages of art every day.. Ive about finished up. I should be better from today on.

The weather here is weird. xj
I too, have made my peace. Two years ago for the character info and this month for the plot info. Or last month... It seems that once my phone reached its limit on space, it decided to get rid of some things to make room entirely on its own. As long as my Evernote doesn't give up the ghost on me, I'm good. ^^' Nothing, unfortunately. Though I do have a few tidbits scattered on different apps and such. This actually happens to me often enough to be used to it, now that I think about it...As I'm now recalling two other instances. ^^' I'm just glad that you were able to recover your art! That takes a lot more time and effort, it'd be horrible if you'd lost it.
Professionals make it look easy but once you learn how tedious it can be...
Definitely. Being a bit of a perfectionist is also why it takes me so long to do anything. ^^' Like write roleplay responses
Of course! I look forward to learning more about your plans- or being pleasantly surprised~ I'm the last person you need to worry about being wordy with. I love it~ And I always need to use all the words. We can ramble together.
I'll bump it up on the list, then~
She is~! I love the way you drew the motion of her hair and dress- And her pose- And her smile-
You have a great night too! Although it's currently 5 in the morning and I should probably try to sleep now. ^^'
Good luck on your art endeavors~

Evidently! Although, any place that floods in the summmer sounds like somewhere I'd like to be, haha. Does it rain a lot over there?
Ack, you shouldn't have lose your notes so often; this is the twenty-first century, right? What we lack in clean air and equality and general decency, we make up for with online services! Do you at least have a drive, or something to automatically back up your files in case your phone goes haywire? I think you could really benefit from the use of Google drive, my dude. O.o
Uh huh...
Ditto that times a hundred. Although all your roleplay responses are perfect so you're doing something right
Heh heh, right, yeah... my... "plans." My... completely thought-out plans that I'm totally not scribbling down as I go without any forethought, nuh uh Oh, alright, if you're sure. Just let me know if I blabber too much. :3
She's such a beautiful character.
Also, sorry sorry so sorry for not getting on here sooner; my dad and his lovely impulsiveness decided that he wanted to go on a spontaneous beach trip, so I was busy with getting ready and going to the beach in general. I'm back, though!
Your new posts were fanatastic, as usual, Baebs. Lior is a precious cinnamon roll and I love him and he must be protected. SToP huRTiNG hIm. Although, I think I have a problem, because LIVE and EVOL are quickly becoming my favorites of your characters. Help me.
OH, and, as a last note: as I said before, I found some old art requests that guys you asked for that I forgot about. Well, Baebs, I discovered that I was supposed to draw Ten but I completely forgot. I'm so sorry. Now, I will certainly get to amending this mistake, but I can't just yet because I do have few art trades I committed myself to, believing I had finished all your art requests over here. Sorry again

Not really? I don't even know. Everyone here jokes about how ridiculous and unpredictable the weather is. Does it not rain much where you are?
x3 We should! I'm not sure what you mean by drive- USB? I have iCloud, but that doesn't help with my journal apps apparently. I already have GoogleDocs- I used it for roleplaying/writing- so I'll check out Google Drive too. Thanks~
If they're anywhere close to perfect it's because I spent entire days agonizing over them Thanks. ^^'
Pffft, who needs forethought? We've managed well enough so far... I honestly doubt I'd have a need/reason to. ^^
She is~
That does sound lovely! You dad sounds fun, and I hope you enjoyed a nice break~
Aww, thanks! I was going for Cinammon Roll when I created him! I can't wait to write more of Lio and his interactions with his team. ^^ i'M SOrRy Just give into it. It's futile to resist. Even though LIVE's character description was literally 'evil', they're surprisingly not the worst of my characters? Is that a bad thing? You make me want to include them more! So I shall. More assassin twins for everyone~!
That's completely okay! I understand, really. ^^ Go ahead and finish up your prior commitments, Ten can wait.
On another note- I totally accidentally created a Superhero!AU because I've been faffing about online in favor of studying for the most part? And while we're on the subject of accidents: I now have three sets of twins in this roleplay? They were all originally created at different times, honest! But there's Dotty & Tsvetan, LIVE & EVOL, and now the Ink Twins. Who are likely another pair of not-quite-twins because Wells might be Penn's less-evil clone... I'm so sorry everyone! I just keeping adding more dorks to the mix. ^^'
College essays are rending my soul but Space Prince Lotor is now the Space Prince Of My Heart so that's a thing
-cough- What I mean from all that is- Seven's response is halfway done despite my general inability to write anything coherent at the moment. ^^' I'm hyped up on superhero vibes and fabulous hair memes. Seven has the best hair
Can you tell I haven't slept? Haha...

Nah, it rains plenty. Just not in the summer. Where you are sounds nice. I'm down for unpredictable weather if it means floods in summer.
Sorry for the confusion; I should have been more clear. When I refer to my Drive, I'm simply talking about Google Drive. ^^ What it does is back up all your Google Docs to your Google account, so if you write there, you will never lose your notes again.
I don't doubt that.
Phfft, forethought. Who uses that anymore? Definitely not writers... Hopefully I don't ruin the running plot with my scribbles, haha
Just wait.
He's a blast... when he remembers to tell his family and/or his wife that he planned a trip for the next day, haha. The break was lovely, thank you ^^
You have one cinnamon roll, Baebs. One. Out of all your sadists and evil twins and sin-namon rolls, you have one pure character. So... what do you do? You shoot him. You shoot him. I am adoring what you've written so far. I look forward to reading more with him. Haha... but seriously, stop shooting the boi D: or at least get him some ice cream before doing so again.
I will. There's no escaping. They're just too well-written.Are we just going to ignore the fact that the little name you have for LIVE is quite literally 'evil' spelled backwards? It's not a bad thing at all. Please do include them more when you get time and inspiration! Honestly, at this point I wouldn't even care if you just skipped Seven's post and just wrote more of the bois. I konw you're not going to, but I'm making a point More assassin twins!
I finished them up today *cheers for myself* Moving on to your boy next. Hopefully it won't take too long, but I can never be sure when it comes to drawing males.
Oooh, Superhero AU? You've grabbed my interest. Ink twins?
You're in college. Wow. You're... an adult... What's that like?
Take your time! :3 Evol and Livy will be enough to sate my hunger for your writing, anyway x3
Did you watch something superhero? An anime, mayhaps? Is that where this vibe is coming from. He does... probably.
A little, but it's rather amusing, haha.

There is a character named Eleven.
That is all

Speaking of unpredictable weather- Turns out we're in a serious Storm Watch area so I probably won't have internet for a while. Hurricane Harvey's supposed to make landfall tomorrow. ^^'
Thanks, I'll try that~
Not much of what I have is truly concrete anyway, I'm sure it'll be fine. ^^
x3 Well with the hurricane coming- I don't know if you'll be affected, I hope not- it seems you might've got to the beach just in time.
Surely that's not true! I have...There's...I mean...Bella- Yeah. Pretty much one entire Cinammon Roll...Thanks! I'm trying ^^' I should be able to arrange that... Ten isn't going to let him actually experience true daylight for a long time. He's overprotective like woah.
Well-written? Haha, y'think so? ^^' LIVE is the only one I can actually kind of clearly see and hear- So I'm glad I come off as if I know what I'm doing. xp
Actually his entire character comes from his name. I saw the word LIVE on my shirt reflected as EVIL in the mirror and based an entire character off of it EVOL is LOVE or EVOL(VE). I'm still not too clear on his character because I never finalized him and didn't get the chance to roleplay him as I had V. All I know is that he's a hopeless romantic who loves everything and gets stronger every time you fight him. He might also be a Yandere... Honestly my general idea was that LIVE lives selflessly and EVOL loves selfishly. Haha, sure thing~ I'd really like to flesh them out more, as they don't have a clear goal yet. I'm glad you like them!
^^ That's awesome~ You mentioned commissions- were you paid? No rush, though I have full confidence in you~ After all, my other bois turned out amazing~ And from the mini-comic with Sylvi, it seems you already have a solid idea of his design.
^^' Sorry I was kinda random. I actually mentioned it because I was considering possibly making a roleplay that kind of paralleled this one, but with everything more concrete with superheroes and superpowers being a fairly common and public thing, and wondered if you might be interested. I would use the same characters, but they'd likely be tweaked a bit for a separate setting. The Ink Twins were created a year or two before the Adrastes. They're both named Ink for reasons and kind of have a similar fighting dynamic where one attacks and the other directs. Penn fights as well though, and in terms of combat power they have the potential to be worse than the Adrastes...I think. Maybe I'll have 'em fight it out to see.
Yeah. I'm an adult. Totally. I drink coffee and cry myself to sleep and everything. It's great. But real talk- I'm the same age as Sylvius and I handle being an 'adult' about just as well.
xj I suppose I could make them primary characters as well...They have the potential to be good guys. Or at least anti-heroes.
Why yes, actually~! Boku no Hero Academia is in my Top Five All Time Favorites. Then I was further influenced by Miraculous Ladybug- I don't watch it but know people who do- Voltron- and choose-your-own-story superhero games that will most heavily influence my plot and setting. ^^
Still, I'm sorry that my responses have been erratic and distracted as of late. ^^'

I don't have the time to leave a full response, but BE SAFE, Baebs. Hurricane Harvey is a 4, so I hear. I hope you're not too close

Don't worry! We seem to be in a pretty advantageous position nonetheless. Harvey dropped to a Cat 1 and so far we've only seen an average amount of rain. No wind and no damage. ^^
