I have arrived from meatspace at the heels of another!
« on: May 11, 2011, 01:49:00 PM »
Hiya~!

I'm Pyrebird, and a friend of Shenmue directly from meatspace. Herein, I will make a formal introduction to everyone here, not that I expect anyone to actually read this thread!

While slacking off on a final project, I've come here hot on her heels to join in on the insanity at the Galaxy's Edge Space Bar, bother Mar, fool around making new friends, and, uh... bother Mar!

I got interested in Animorphs yeeeears ago in around 4th grade, back when just about everyone and their dog was reading these in school. Yes, back then, dogs went to school, too! I even went ahead and joined the Animorphs Book Club, but my subscription expired after volume 10. I've went back to Animorphs on and off, and read through the Hork-Bajir and Andalite Chronicles, and those funky choose-your-own adventure stories. I also borrowed many titles from the library.

But I never got very far into the series, and so my knowledge is fuzzy and limited. Sure, books cost less than 5 bucks each back then, but the sheer volume of books kinda kept me from going. The rest of my knowledge comes from s-s-s-spoilers! And Shenmue. Thanks, Shenmue (and TVtropes, you bane of time-management)!

I got interested in joining in on the fun at the GESB because it neither required too much knowledge of the ins-and-outs of the series, and I can try to gain said knowledge through the use of an OC, anyways. Expect to see me more at the GESB OOC topic.

I need to organize my character's profile, now.
I am a little Meglet, I came here to roleplay. And armed with walls of text here, I'm ready to go play!
Meglet, Meglet, Meglet! She came here to roleplay! And with these walls of text here, she'll go and post away!

Wow, a reply? And here I was, thinking I was posting at thin air!

Thanks for the "Welcome"! I certainly feel pretty welcome, this looks to be a friendly place.

*Runs in* YES! I'm the first one here!!

I mean, um, welcome to RAF! I'm sure Bear, Myth, Seal and a few others will be along before too long to welcome you too, BUT I GOT HERE FIRST! XD Theres this thing going on, its a race to be the first to welcome new people to RAF.

Anyway, most of the people on here are awesome, but a little insane, Seal will come collect your sanity from you. We're all one big dysfunctional happy RAFfamily here. I can't wait to see some of your writing!

:lol: FAIL

A giant eagle the size of a jetliner flies overhead. It's wings thunder as it lands, producing a ground-shaking thud.

<Hi, I'm Rukh.>, it says.

It suddenly turns into a dark, translucent liquid and ripples down to take a human form.

"Welcome."

It's a welcome wagon of life or death! Sweeeet.

Also, logging this one down as the first time I've been greeted by a giant telepathic eagle. Awesome.

My sanity has already been drained over the past years, are you sure there's any left? Either way, I'm betting my arrival will serve to further deteriorate a certain someone else's sanity more! Mark my words, she is destined to be... surrounded by ME! Mwahahaha~

I've heard about some of you (ok, your characters) back and forth via AIM with Shenmue, and she has... apparently mentioned me more than I imagined! I'm otherwise known as Meg, Kellybelly's annoying bespectacled friend. *waves*

Hahahaha nice. :) Yes, there are many types of people on RAF. Caleb is a shapeshifter, I'm a avian-human hybrid with wings who can breathe underwater, we have a dryad and a Seal, a bunch of yeerks and andalites, one of two Go'auld, and.... Thats all I can think of right now. Oh yes! A hawk. Or two or three. Lol. So what are you? :P

I'm just a boring meatbag Asian girl, who dreams about spaceships and flying. And my flight dreams, curiously, tend to follow the laws of physics outside of the ability to fly. I also play videogames and daydream very vividly.

As such, I suppose I am a fine role-player, if I do say so myself. *ego stroke*

Welcome to the forum, Meg :) I know you'll enjoy it here, you sound like you'll fit in perfect.
You may have been given a cactus. Doesn't mean you have to sit on it.

I lumbered into the thread, twitching my clubbed tail in annoyance.  <Ahem.  You forgot dinosaur.>

I turned to the newcomer.  <Anyway, welcome to the forum, pyrebird!  I'm sure you'll love it here.  As you can see, I'm RAF's resident mixed-morph Ankylosaur/Tyrannosaur nothlit.  It was a terrible, tragic accident, involving Skrit Na, oatmeal, and a tranquilizer, but anyway I'm stuck this way now and I've learned to live with it.>
