Okay, with a full time job comes more responsibility...we'll see how it goes. I have a feeling I'll be very bored at work and we aren't allowed to bring our phones.
Pteryx
Oh fun. -_-
Pteryx
Not an appealing job you ended up with?
Paintingfreak
It's front desk at a hotel during the slow season. I'm wondering if I can bring a book? Lol.
Pteryx
If they don't allow phones, I worry that they just want you to never, ever appear distracted.
Paintingfreak
Yeah, that's gonna happen especially at night audit. I'll talk to one of the other people when I'm trained up about what they do to stay busy.
Pteryx
nods.
Paintingfreak
I might take up art again? I have a friend who wants me to make an rp scenariou.
Paintingfreak
SCENARIO!
Pteryx
Oh?
Paintingfreak
Yeah, I'm one of those who actually learned a bit much about the 1880's in the US. So, since I know that and the idea of what they used for the budding tech, I started coming out with steampunk stuff.
Pteryx
Ahhh.
Paintingfreak
I am unfortunately horrible when it comes to dice rolling so we're finding a way to make this work without D20's. Classy can't math.
Pteryx
Horrible how?
Paintingfreak
Like, keeping up with numbers, keeping up with stats full of them. Idk if it's because I switch numbers in my head and count a little off without something in my hand (i.e. counting out change) or what...
Pteryx
Does keeping numbers low help at all?
Pteryx
I'd figure that trying to keep numbers from changing frequently would be a good idea either way.
Paintingfreak
Sometimes? I'm starting to think I have dyscalculia or something. It took me three different tries to pass College Algebra and so on.
Pteryx
{Hmmm.}
Paintingfreak
Because I'd switch numbers or whatnot. So, I'm a horrible DM in that regard, but I make awesome scenarious?
Paintingfreak
*SCENARIOS! Dang it phone!
Pteryx
Not sure how to help there. Even diceless stuff like Amber and Nobilis invlove some numbers.
Pteryx
involve, even.
Paintingfreak
Yeah, I'm figuring out how to make it work. It'll be interesting.
Paintingfreak
I have a friend making a failed attempt at Steampunk in the US in the 1850's. The factories and industrial tech wasn't what it could have been if she started later on it.
Pteryx
Then there's stuff like FATE's adjective ladder, but frankly that's just numbers represented as words anyway.
Paintingfreak
Hey, I have a feeling it'll be a small amount just so we can keep stats. I do know that's easier to keep track of.
Pteryx
nods.
Paintingfreak
Like not rolling to strike but for stat updates and health bar...I'll figure it out. <3 I'll see how this goes. I love telling stories, but the dice aspect and the slow pace throws me off.
Paintingfreak
I have time, that's for sure.
Paintingfreak
Do you have any ideas? I'm just trying to see if there's a system out there that'd be all right for this.
Pteryx
As far as existing systems that'd work as-is, not off the top of my head...
Paintingfreak
Okay, I'll see what I can do. Thank you for all the replies, though?
Pteryx
No problem!

When I am rich I shall hire you to RP with me all day.
Paintingfreak
Am I seriously that good at story telling? Because I probably should write scripts...Supernatural could improve. Not to mention me learning Enochian would make it ten times cool.
Paintingfreak
...but that's if I seriously write storylines that good. I doubt it most of the time.

You like emotionally torturing muses - you'd be perfect on SPN.
Paintingfreak
Hey, plot revolves around struggle. If there was no struggle, there would be no plot. Just fluffy bunnies.
