OOC/Notes/Concrit
Thank you all for putting up with me as I endeavor to play this crazy genius.
The first thing I think I should note is that, while Seely is a genius, I am not. Although I think a pretty good way to become geniusy is to play one in an RPG, I'm not quite there yet. So if I get something wrong, tell me! I'll correct it or make up some bullshit story as to why Seely said/did it. He is crazy after all.
That's the second thing. Yes, he is crazy, but that doesn't mean he always has to be. Or that he's going to always do the same brand of crazy stuff. I fully intend to develop him and have him go through lifey stuff as soon as I figure out what that might be.
For now I'm just going to have this post here to explain some of the things Seely does, since he doesn't have the care the explain them himself. Mostly to do with journals.
Here Goes
- You may have noticed, in journals sometimes (at least, in his very first one) Seely has a tendency to add little symbol things to the end of his badly-formed sentences (∆•∞¨¨˙©∫˜µˆh¥˙©˚˙¨•¶§•¶ª• etc.). These usually don't have any particular significance, they are simply there to represent how Seely doodles in his journal. They don't look much like real doodles but I figure nobody handwrites in perfect Times New Roman so we can suspend our disbelief a little farther here. What these symbols can indicate to you IC and OOC is that, when using a lot of these, Seely is probably high.
- It's important to understand that Seely sometimes forgets people can read what he reads in his journal. Sometimes he forgets that they can reply, and he won't reply back, or he'll reply with something completely ridiculous. Just remember to picture this kid sitting all alone in his dirty apartment staring at a journal full of words, he's not going to be able to function very well with it.
- On the occasions that Seely doesn't use the crazy symbols when he talks, and when he makes a little more sense in his posts, this isn't OOC (...i hope?), it just means he's sober. Still sort of out of his mind, but not the twirly flower child he is when he's high. I'll try to make theses two states of being very distinct so that his character shows through in both.
- If Seely goes out of his way to bother your character or make him/her unravel annoying riddles it means he likes them! Sort of! If he does this with your character and you find it really tedious, do not hesitate to tell me to gtfo! My AIM is still miss smemily and I love receiving IMs!
That's all for now, I'll probably add more when they come up.
This is probably a good place for anyone to give me their concrit, if they like! Comments are screened, anonymous is allowed, please please please make sure there is some con in there and not just crit. Thank you, come again
