How's my driving?

The rules of the game are as follows: comment to this post with a list of your characters. Other players will provide constructive criticism and positive feedback. You do the same because community is built on reciprocity, we are told.

While we would prefer everyone be honest and open with each other and we would hope you'd feel safe voicing concerns, anonymous commenting is permitted. However, moderators will be moderating; we don't have any marshmallows, so we don't want flames going on here. Wanking is forbidden. If you don't have anything nice to say, phrase what you do have to say politely.

That said, please don't post here if you don't feel able to handle constructive criticism. A well thought-out, helpful critique can be a wonderful thing and shows that people care. When you're critiquing others, try to be specific about what works and what doesn't, as that can be very useful for pinpointing what a player should keep and what a player should let go.

Commence!

Christopher @ inhumanity (Baccano! prior to 1933: The Slash)
Morgana @ oneiromancer (BBC Meriln AU from "To Kill The King")

[millenia]

Christopher is still incredibly intriguing. I was expecting crazykiller, and that anyone I threw at him would have to watch their step or suddenly gunblade (which would have been hella fun too don't get me wrong). I had no idea CR with him would turn into doting and an abundance of baked goods. Jacqli and I are both puzzled.

It's also great to see Morgana around again. ♥!

[grip_on_reality]

I love Morgana! Have I said this? Everything I see of her--and hear of Morgana in the actual series--makes me wish the series could have gone more like your AU because Morgana is brilliant and complex and awesome.

Christopher still scares me to death, but his shenanigans are forever amusing, and it amazes me how you write that distinct voice! Particularly his random tangents of thought. It's excellent.

Also, I am just really happy you're around again ♥.

No crit, just love. ♥ The beastie thing has been fun! Thanks for putting up with my slow so I can poke at it.

[grip_on_reality]

I LOVE JAMIE SO MUCH ♥!

I mean...*cough* Not that you didn't already know that. But--and I know I've said this before too--you really do have the most perfect handle on his way of speaking. I can always hear Frazer in my head, and considering how much I love his voice, this is an additional benefit!

I also love that you're always up for fun plotting and so willing to get into so many things. Also, to backtag forever. Keep being awesome, Beth!

Coming off a burnout, so help, advice and words of wisdom would be grand.

[millenia]

Burnout happens. /snug! ♥ You are still fantastic, and my only legit crit is that I want more of you. But I need to not be busy first i guess. ;;

I think my only advice comes in the form of a question: Have you ever thought about a joint experiment with someone to force a start to CR and then see where it goes from there? Like... idk, a bodyswap or something similar? Forcibly smooshing Marta at some people using posts/ideas like that deeeefinitely helped me keep her around.

[inhumanity]

I think Maggie's suggestion is good! Force some CR on them, however you can, whether through trauma or awkward hijinks.

[grip_on_reality]

Agreeing with forcing them into stuff! And maybe even a regular experiment would help, just to give something to get the mental juices flowing? That's usually what I try, anyway...

I love yours as much as ever, particularly Mu. And I hope you can come out of the burnout soon. I miss you!

Agent York || decrypts || Red vs. Blue - pre-canon!

[lamb_of_gold]

I am enjoying york immensely so far. This is less crit and more god damn i want more of you please

[millenia]

York is going to get himself killed I swear to gods.

Which I guess means you're doin' it right. ♥

[grip_on_reality]

YORK IS WONDERFUL! I hope he lives long enough to keep being wonderful for a while longer. But seriously, you do an excellent job of conveying his trains of thought, not to mention his way of speaking. He ist just...I love him ♥. I just hope Doc doesn't traumatize him too much!

Hit me. I love crit. omnom.

[grip_on_reality]

Added heartbreak is the saddest description :(

MAGGIE, I LOVE YOU. And yours. And I say this every time, but they're so different and individual, and you are brilliant. And how do you manage to have so many of them involved in so much at the same time? It defies physics!

Also, I still can't wait for Riku's experiment to continue. And one day, I hope that Menzies will learn Jacqli's name. Also, Doc needs to meet South eventually, although I'm not sure I'm ready for him to die yet XD.

But anyway, keep doing the amazningness that you are doing. Hang in there for the hiatus first, but I am eagerly awaiting your return ♥.

Oliver Day | oliverplus
DI Patricia Menzies | grip_on_reality
Doc | docinawall

I would love any crit! Activity is tough for me right now, and I always get nervous about characterization when I'm rushed, so do hit me up if you have comments.

[millenia]

ew it's menzies.

... kidding. ♥

I could gush at you all day on this thing, but I gush all the time and honestly I have no helpful crit. ^^; Apologies.

But! I will say that it's good to see Oliver happy and at home, and I'm glad that giving him a happy ending hasn't meant saying goodbye to the Plane.

Also Doc still cracks me the hell up. Way to do it right.

[tricksterofthelord]

Hi! I'd like to say that now that Gabe and Menzies are interacting a lot I could look at her more, and I loved her! I think you're doing great with her, it was easy to understand her personality and her traits, so it was visible what kind of person she is, even if I'm not familiar with her canon much I can still see how she is... I mean, you know... XD Ok this is awful, um, so I think Menzies is amazing~ So, yay~

.../pops from restraint

[millenia]

No battering! /flails at you!

I'm really glad that Rhade is back, because I love your Rhade and am guilty of stalking him, not even gonna lie. ♥ I will toss my people at him until something or someone sticks! Unless you get annoyed with such a tactic, in which case I will stop.

and

Tsubaki Nakatsukasa | blackstarsenal -- whom I still have to intro! /o\

It has been a slower-than-usual activity period for me, nevertheless, any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

[millenia]

Kiran is still awesome and I love him. ♥ I also can't wait to meet Tsubaki!

Also if this game had a problem with slow, I would have been kicked out long before now. Eheh. ^^; But hey, good luck with things!

[sosweet]

Gemini Saga ♊ sosweet

I've been feeling kind of a slacker with him but if you have any crit is a~ll good!

[millenia]

Can I just say that frog!Saga had me rolling with laughter? Okay, so the whole thread did, but I totally lost it at that part!

[tricksterofthelord]

Hiccup - dragonnerd Yay, he will canonbump to the end of the movie soon~~

Loki/The Trickster (Gabriel) tricksterofthelord

Tthese last few days I got called out about my english grammar at work, so if it's something that really bugs you and I don't seem to notice or something, please tell me! I know my english isn't the best, especially lately, so I'd like to try and get better. Thank you~

[millenia]

Kid, you are making me want to watch the rest of Supernatural. I stopped pretty early on and haven't had time to catch up because holy crap that's a lot of canon, but watching Gabriel makes me smile.

[onehundredbeers]

this guy /flops onto this HMD as my arm pops off oh no how tragic.

[millenia]

/reattaches your arm with superglue and love ♥

I need more Nathan in my life. What can I do to achieve this goal?
