The IC Critque Meme!

Have you ever wanted to tell your fellow ~~cave~~ wasteland-dwellers what you think of them without consequence? Does their cavalier attitude toward murder, or lack of any critical thinking skills, or naive optimism cause frustration? Or is it something even more minor that really irks you, like that your roommate keeps borrowing your clothes or your friend won't use punctuation when they type?

WELL THEN--

THE LOWDOWN
• Post a header with your character's name.
• Comment in-character to other people's headers. With what? Depends on your CR! Maybe they're a good person and really should keep on keeping on, maybe literally everyone can see they need to suck it up and confess already, maybe they'll change their wicked ways if just one extra person casts aspersions on their pompadour. Bring in examples if you want, as with any helpful critique. Be as creative as you like!
• Other characters will comment to yours, no doubt overflowing with well-meaning advice on how to be the best person they can be. Your character is free to respond. Excuse you, maybe despair is still in fashion??
• Feel free to assume there's a compulsion to speak their minds, if your character's not usually the type to give unsolicited advice.
• A probably unnecessary reminder, but just remember, this is not a place for OOC crit! There are other, more appropriate channels for that.

As bad at flirting as he is at eating ghost peppers. Such a shame.

Wow, I'm at least better at eating ghost peppers than most people. And- wait. I wasn't trying to flirt?

[You sweet summer child.]

You make me too happy when you visit and it distracts me from my work.

(~~which is actually 100% fine and I love it~~)

Does that mean I should visit less?

[HORRIFIED GASP]

Not at all!

Well good, because I don't plan to.

Oh good.

You take awkwardness to a higher playing field previously unimagined.

That's... well, I'm not gonna argue.

I'm not sure you'd have grounds to argue.

I'm not sure who leaves more to be desired from a conversation, him or me.

[Fact: they're both terrible at it.]

Probably me. At least you don't usually steer conversations toward weird gross stuff.

No, but I could certainly find better topics to speak of myself. This is relatively new for me, frankly.

What, talking to people? Because same. Back home, I only have one person I talk to regularly, and don't get me wrong, that's on purpose.

I have my church, but people speak differently to you when you are clergy.

God, we're a mess.

[Whoops.]

I guess at least we have each other to practice with?

Aheh. That is a small comfort.

[Just two guys bonding over how awkward they are in the art of normal conversation. No big.]

Your shirts are godawful.

No, they're great, you just don't get it.

Don't give me that smug fucking face like you're some walking goddamn performance art piece.

Aren't I though?

[Now he's just critting himself???]
