Nope not stuck Legate, I'm working on a post now.

Although I will point out the week of the 6th (so starting Monday) is going to be pretty packed for me. I have some 25 interviews scheduled throughout the week for a new job opening.

Ok, so I posted. Rudy had other things on his mind than to acknowledge Michael standing there (sorry Legate

) But, obviously if Peony or Bunny want to, there's the oppurtunity. Also, Lommy, Rudy has welcomed Tansy to stay with him and Mira, it's up to you.

If someone else wants to bring in Hugo's relatives from the area to take the body, that'd be great too. That way I can get to whether Rudy and Mira will stay on the adventure (I love the suspense, don't you?) If not, not a problem, I can write them in.

Okay, as nothing seems to happen, I have half-written a post now, I'm gonna to post it this evening, concerning Michael and Bunny mainly, it should move things a bit further... seems too quiet around here. I just have to finish and post it. It should be up in some ten hours let's say.

All right, like I said, as nothing seemed to happen lately, I kind of took the matter into my own hands - I made Bunny interact with Michael. Hope nobody minds - and Valier especially, I hope I did not made Bunny seem unlike how you think she'd be (if so, tell me, I can always correct it). I hope it also was not too "forced", as I always want to refrain from these things and won't use them in any other case - but I really wanted to move the situation. I thought the opening of the dialogue was not anything that could not happen? (Also, the feature of Bunny stumbling was just something I thought could happen and to make the contact easier, because otherwise it would be really hard for Michael to start talking to her just like that. It's just a feature.)

And Bunny being the "leader" of the whole thing, I also thought maybe Michael could serve here as "catalyser" for a reason to make the journey continue.

Ahhhhhhhh Very good post Legate! Once again. I would rep you but it seems I rep you all too much to rep you again so soon

I think you did well with the situation and with Bunny. I will post fairly soon, I can work nicely off yours I think. But it is Thanksgiving this weekend so I will be pretty busy. If I come up with something good quickly I will try and have it down sooner or by at least monday at the uttmost latest.

Hopefully in the meantime you others that are in the Inn, can continue on with your goings on in there. I would like to get us going so we can finally have time for the Hobbits to get to know one another better.

Oh, good

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. Indeed, looking forward to seeing the story moving on, and I join Valier in strongly encouraging the others to portray what's going on inside the Inn meanwhile... posting on the RPG is fun when you overcome the laziness and make yourself do it, now isn't it?

(I am speaking of my own, just recently experienced, personal experience

- P.S. English is silly, it does not have two different words for 'experienced' or 'experience' - it looks weird)

I'm putting up a save and plan to have a post up soon. Legate are you available to post after me? I mean I was thinking of having a bit of a back and forth between Bunny and Micheal. You seem to be around the most, but thought I'd ask. I think Bunny would not just let Micheal join them with out at least a bit of conversation.

I'm getting a little concerned with the amount of posting again. It has slowed down, even though we have just started up. I'm finding the lack of conversation and interaction between the characters to be well.....lacking. This for me makes posting not so fun. I do have things planned and want to continue, but if the direction of this RPG is to just get to the end and not the enjoyment of the story, I'm afarid it has taken a bad turn.
Please we really need to hear from people as to their plans for posting. There is only 6 of us now, so posting a bit more often is going to be needed to make this any fun.

EDIT: I just posted this as Lommy posted in the RPG. (now i feel a bit silly)
