RP SOTRP | stressed today, so I made noodles and ordered sushi

I figured I might as well make this a sotrp or state of life or whatever plurk too, since I'm here

Noodles and sushi look amazing omg

I'm sure people noticed I've been slower, and it's kind of a combination of different things merging together that makes me MIA or quieter than usual

𝒸𝒽𝑒𝑒𝓇𝓁𝑒𝒶𝒹𝑒𝓇🎀 : ALSO THANK YOU it is currently tasting amazing

Love that for you!

(also I have a few private plurks I need to hit back, i haven't forgotten you guys I'm just [screams into void])

But yeah honest thoughts about how things are going -- mostly in currently. I'll admit I'm floundering a little here! Which is weird, I feel like I did this last time I was in-game too and I'm honestly not sure what causes the 5-6 month stagnation for me. I came in swinging for my second time in game and have made amazing cr!!! So that's great

But other times I feel like I have no idea what to write, I'm always so hot and cold with things sparking my interest. That and I feel bad because our mutant cast blew up and I feel like I can't keep up like I would have really loved to.

Laura is VERY WEALTHY in CR and I'm so happy for it, but it makes me have to pick things for her more carefully than when I came back. It makes me slower, so I hope people don't mind that!

Peter is kinda in a place where I'm good with him, he doesn't feel like he has too much or too little, he's juuuust right

Max has been... a challenge, I gotta admit. I think he's better suited to forced close interaction games, so have to admit I've been struggling with him and his difficult personality in Etraya lately

I'd hoped the Solmara mission would get me hyped up, but I think I was just focused so hard on getting things done timely that it came and went and I'm still trying to get that CR processing and moving, so he's been... like... ROUGH on a CR front

He's been here 4 months but I feel like he's moved hardly an inch since the first week he'd shown up, which makes me worried he just isn't clicking for me here. I've had thoughts that maybe I should let him go and focus on Peter and Laura more instead

Another fun aspect is the current [waves hand at American politics] and frankly I've been extra stressed by virtue of my dad's side of the family being in constant threat of being singled out by our government, as well as general unrest in SoCal, as well as everything slowly literally being on fire, so there's that. IDK THIS IS A BUMMER PLURK

I'm sorry to be so negative, but I have been STRESSED just existing

especially because I have the pleasure of living in the reddest county in california, so. yes.

I just apped to, that one's fine! I'm slow of course but I'm super interested in the world and I'm happy to play Usopp again!

... So yeah, tl;dr, I think I may be dropping Max. Four months is a good amount of time to know if your character is gonna click in a game, and I don't think he's clicking.

I think I knew the end was nigh when I did the chirper and Max got 1 response while my other two got 8-9. That's not on anyone else of course! Like, he's just not a social guy, and I haven't been able to find a footing with him that has worked for me in Etraya.

ahhh I'm sorry you're not feeling the Vibes

i have played characters like Max and they're def a struggle!! it might just be a different game is all it takes (i love max tho)

Yea, some characters are just not the right fit for some games, and that's okay.

You know I kept meaning to tag Max but I’m so slow in Etraya myself that it just never ends up happening

Thank you guys!!!! I love Max but sometimes a character really just needs a special game that caters more suitably to their... everything
