[RP] Okay. I am not going to be so much as writing a single tag until February, first of all. I'm going back to college next Monday, and the the first two weeks of college are pretty lowkey so I want around a week of Actual Workload to adjust to before I figure out what my realistic RP load is going to be like.
lily!
However. My current plans are apping to VR, since it's a pretty lowkey game that I nonetheless had a lot of fun with.

Who you thinking, bringing back Connie or someone new?
sailor bii
lily!
I would say I'd app Ryuko if you're bringing Mako, but I have been burned by my own choice to only app for the sake of canonmates. I'd have to TDM around with Ryuko a lot and get a feel for her outside of CR with Mako.
lily!
Connie's in a similar case, I want to bring her back since Rocket!Connie is a delight to play, BUT I lost her voice for a reason and I want to make SURE it's back before bringing her in.
Phas|DippedOut
Yeah, I've apped into games specifically for One CR before and it's never ended well
Phas|DippedOut
(also idk if I'm actually gonna app Mako or not)
lily!
If I'm feeling shaky on either of those options, I'm probably going to bring in Rituska "Gudako" Fujimaru.
lily!
That too.
lily!
All things considered, I am leaning towards Ritsuka or Connie, and if I'm still feeling solid a month into one I'm probably going to bring in the other.
Phas|DippedOut
Guda storms the radio tower single-handed
lily!
fjaskd;fjlasdf yeah,
lily!
honestly the terrifying thing about playing gudako is that she would effectively not be nerfed at ALL by coming to pokéworld
lily!
which is also kind of daunting to think of playing her because like
lily!
she would both legitimately choose the weirdest pokemon and come up with the wackiest off the wall strategies
lily!
HOWEVER. Connie is... loads of fun. Like, INSANE fun, and I... adore her CR... so much...
lily!
And her coming back just in time for Valentine's with Akane is a cute idea.
Phas|DippedOut
I have similar worries about Mako, honestly
Phas|DippedOut
not so much nerfing per se, but she's very high energy
lily!
I think my big problem with Connie is that I got kinda lost in the weeds because she got hit with such crushing existential despair that it was hard for her to recover from and I didn't really know what to do with her either so she just sat, depressed and thinking about the meaning of life, until I gave up and dropped her.
lily!
Connie blipping for months would probably be the thing to push her back around to okay just because, fuck it, if this is going to happen why even worry? And she'll get back to living her criminal life.
lily!
sailor bii
What are your thoughts on a potential Connie reapp?
Usagi
Guda runs in, Carly chases her out,
lily!
HONESTLY CONSIDERING HOW BAD RITSUKA'S TRACK RECORD WITH ISEKAITIS IS THERE'S
lily!
A SOLID CHANCE SHE'LL ASSUME IT'S A SINGULARITY,
lily!
she would live, like, an entire day with "mom" trying lowkey not to break her cover in case she needs to do more thorough investigation,
lily!
until she realizes "Wait this is actually my body"
sailor bii
i'd be happy!
Usagi
i luv 1 guda,
sailor bii
i'd be so happy to see connie again negl
lily!
ye
lily!
i do want to play both of them but i'm not sure if college schedule will allow
sailor bii
akane misses her girlfriend!
Phas|DippedOut
Guda spends a day with Mom until another new trainer pops in and gets the same spiel
lily!
so i'll probably put up a tdm post for both of them super late this month or early february and see which one sticks more/takes less effort
sailor bii
and they'd have a new traveling companion... at least when she gets back from hiding from the cat burglars
lily!
rip in rip
sailor bii
Connie would like Cassandra, though, I think. she's a nice, sensible person
sailor bii
and Akane's made another new friend who isn't traveling with her but is in Goldenrod
sailor bii
who is scorpia, who would be connie's new coworker
sailor bii
oh and also steven would be overjoyed to see connie again
lily!
100%
lily!
especially since it would've been like
lily!
six years from his perspective?
sailor bii
YES
sailor bii
he misses her
lily!
"So. Let me get this straight. Just after you broke up, Jack went back home and got younger, you went back home and got older- is the universe trying to make sure you don't make bad decisions and try to get back with him again?"
sailor bii
Laughing out loud. "God, maybe. It's fine. I've got a new boyfriend anyway."
lily!
God, I do need to canon review for Connie, but that would require more reading her old threads than watching the series considering how much her time in VR changed her.
sailor bii
rereading old threads can be fun though
sailor bii
and yeah GOD but VR worked its alchemy there
