Despite my lack of skills at writing a book, I don't think the desire will ever go away. It occurred to me that maybe I can write down what happens to Claxter in the RP, though I'm not sure if it's really practical. I suppose I could always just link to the Rogue Element thread, and possibly page 339 in the GESB archive as a prologue to RE. Does it seem od for me to consider just writing like a fanfic about what happens in our RP from Claxter's perspective?

Not at all, Chad.  You just have to be careful where other people's characters are concerned, that's all.   :)

Thought I replied to this, sorry >.< Anyway, I think a fanfic about the RP sounds like a great idea ^_^ I'm actually doing that for bits of Salem's story-- his time so far at the GESB is included. As such, if you decide you want to do that, I can give some advice. See, RPs are fun, and great writing practice in their own right, but I've found that they translate pretty poorly to a book-style narrative, if you do it directly. There's a lot of dialogue and a lot of minor events in an RP that go nowhere, and we actually spend an awful lot of time restating and rediscussing the same things. Also, there's this tendency for us to hesitate for like twenty pages before any action happens.

Basically, what I'm saying is-- don't be afraid to take liberties, cut or change or re-order minor events and dialogue. The GESB makes for a great RP, but not a very good book without some help :P

Marie and Abby are my wonderful RAFsisters ^_^

Man, I have no idea why anyone would have a fixation with that little snot Efaen at all. I don't think I'll ever understand men. :p

~Both sexes, it seems, prefer the angry ones.

Aaaanyway, Terenia: Keshin spoke to Terenia. ;)

Not a lot of female Andalites on the Tyrennian atm...you know what they say, any port in a storm.  Plus Eleric got a little hot under the collar when he saw Efaen's estreen demorph.

LOL, thanks for pointing it out to me Chad.  I don't have the kind of link with a new character that I do with older ones.  Funny that I should mis-name my own character in a post.  XD  I do have one sort-of excuse though...I was literally falling asleep between typing lines of that post.  :p

Yeah, I get the feeling you don't make many characters, and just like to stick with Ossy. I'm kind of glad the character I settled on is Andalite, so we can have more grass eaters around. We certainly didn't get many of them at the bar, and one of them was a controller anyway.

Ack, sorry, yes, I will respond Kelly. Sometime today. Promise.


And yeah, Efaen has he benefit of being one of the few Andalites on board that's female. And she's a good deal younger than the only other female we know about. So....ehh?

As this is typed, and it's difficult to read tone, I'm not entirely sure how you intended that "ehh." I'm pretty sure it's that tentative, hand-is-a-teeter-totter, I'm slightly disturbed by this "ehh" that you do, but I'm having more fun picturing you going all two-thumbs-up Fonzie. 'Eyyyy!

I firgured eleric would do something like that, or maybe use some overblown sarcastic flattery.

Yep. Eleric is definitely a fighter pilot. Haha. You write his pride and his attitude quite well, Luke ^_^

Thanks, Scott.  You flatter me, sir.  ^^
