I tried to roll with that, letting some response go which I'm sure you would indicate is only fair, with the proviso that things be allowed to progress as smoothly as possible. Now, it seems to a part of me I don't really want to be listening to, that without a shutting down and cooling off period, we'll get trapped in an eternal circle of trying to get in the last word; I don't think that's good for the story...
I really am sorry that Sabrina's action was so... provocative, I was just trying to do what she would do in that situation. She wouldn't have ignored it. And I would like to say if Cate or Jemal had yelled at Vych she would have done the same thing to stick up for her, it was just that it was Vych who did the yelling. I am really sorry, and if you all want me out, I'll leave, don't really want to disrupt the game.
Catulle, I think that if we all just come up with some rules, we will avoid this on in the future.
You guys do realize how dominating you've been in-character, right?
How difficult it looks to write in any scene where Sabrina and Caitlyn happen to be in the same room?
It reads silly, the obsession they have recently had with each other, and the way you guys jumped the gun and posted so many things, moving the action along while not waiting for anyone's input shows that you are both missing how your intense interplay is hedging out other players.
No, I really hadn't realized that. I thought that everyone was fine with how things were going, and would email me if there were any problems. I'm sorry if you see Sabrina as a dominatrix (wow, that didn't come out right), I really am. I would tone her down, but I don't know how. She is a little girl, a child. Children want to be the center of attention, thats just the way it is. She isn't meture enough to know that she can't always be the center of attention. She has a psychological need to be the center of attention, its in her personality, and its from the fact she is a child, but also because of her history (which not everyone knows).
What would you have us all do?
Just sit back and continue to watch your interplay?
Why don't I pop some popcorn, while I'm at it?
"Welcome to yet ANOTHER installment of the Cait-n-Saby show!
When last we left our obsessive pair, they were doing the same thing they're doing now!
Tune in next week, when they dominate yet another scene!"
Again, very sorry you feel that way, I apologize again for that. Though I think that you are unfairly casting us as obsessive. But to each their own.
I think it's ironic, and very instructive, that you think it was "OK" for Kitana to do (basically) EXACTLY what Vych did.
Your right, it was no more ok for her to do it then for vych to do it.
But I would like to say something about this, so please try to understand. Many many tutors do not allow other people to be in the room when they are working with their pupils. Its distracting, and can lead to arguements as the people generally have their own ideas which they try to interject in the lesson interrupting the 'expert'. Most that I know refuse to teach in front of others not wanting to deal with it. I would also add, that Vych had no reason to expect that she would be allowed to remain, she wasn't the employer, she wasn't a family member. Sabrina just went along with Cate's asking the others to leave, something she would do being that she is a child and easily lead around so long as she is happy.
As I read it, Vych either had to accept her subservient, miniscule role you'd left for her in the scene, and be ultimately dismissed by Kitana, or she could post, and try to create some room for her character to play in.
Well, I think you are reading it wrong there. I don't know any character named Kitana. I do see that Cate dismissed Vychtorya Fayrchylde, not your wife, for in character reasons.
It reads silly, the obsession they have recently had with each other
Sabrina is a child, she has a craving for attention, she has been alone for going on a week and a half without any company but her brother and her uncle. She is bored out of her mind. Like all children she is impatient and wants to be doing something. Someone has hown up just for her, to do things with her. I really don't need to defend the relationship between SABRINA and CATE, you don't have all the facts, just be confident in the fact that they are acting true to who they are.
So do yourself a favor, and ignore what I've written, and don't care about what I think.
Because it's obvious at this point that we are different people, and we like different things in a game, and I think that Catulle is damn good enough to wrangle our different styles together, and let us all get what we want out of the game.
How is that doing myself a favor? I really want everyone to be happy with the game, I honestly do.
I do agree whole heartdly, Barry is doing a phenominal job, he really is, and I applaud his efforts.
Please don't take any of this the wrong way. I am just expressig my confusion and replying to your points.
