the | in character | critique meme

[dedikated]

Have you ever just wanted to tell someone flat-out what you think of them as a person? Does your roommate have this one quirk that drives you up the wall, like dripping apathy all over the kitchen sink? Sometimes all it takes to be the best person you can be is a dose of self-awareness, sometimes what it takes instead is a cluebat to the head... and sometimes they just have a stupid name you can never quite spell right.

For all this and more, have I got the meme for you!

THE LOWDOWN
i. Post a header with your character's name.
ii. 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!
iii. 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??
iv. A probably unnecessary reminder, but just remember, this is not a place for OOC crit! There are other, more appropriate channels for that.
v. Here are quick links to the Dreamwidth inbox and recent posted comments page if you want them.

You make me hopeful for the future of this place. When I get lost, you pull me back. I haven't known anyone like you for a long time. Even under the circumstances, I'm glad that we had the chance to meet.

[cashlin]

You deserve more than wasting away in Hadriel. It's the least I can do.

[thinking of herself as somebody who'd instill hope is strange, but somehow encouraging, anyway.]

Me too, Maketh. Me too.

[mismanagement]

And you're a good drinking partner. Let's not discount the important things.

[Not that the rest isn't important, but...Maketh still has trouble with expressing emotions, and exactly how much all of this means to her.]

[cashlin]

[Dodging the serious bits? Don't mind if she does.]

Definitely important. And next time, double the shots: you're not gonna beat me again.

[mismanagement]

Oh? I accept your challenge. What do I get when I win?

[cashlin]

Um, if. But in that case: honor, glory. Whatever else you want, maybe-- we'll cross that bridge if-slash-when we get to it.

[mismanagement]

Oh, but I feel certain of my victory. In this arena, at least. Honor and glory do sound nice.

[cashlin]

Don't be so sure. You are on, sister.

[mismanagement]

Indeed. We shall make a night of it.

Your gun is really awesome.

[ Reminds her of Sasha's, actually... ]

[bluffed]

And you got the tough vagrant tattoo'd cool girl persona down perfectly.

[bluffed]

Uh.... and... you're cool.

[ She's going to shut up now.

Just wait til she finds out Lilith's a fucking vault hunter. The next meme would have 40 different strings of comments. ]

WHAT A NERD....

[cashlin]

[should she be flattered or creeped out

fuck it she's taking "flattered", she loooooves the praise tbqh she CANT EVEN PRETEND]

Hey, thanks. You're not so bad yourself, Fiona.

Re: lilith

[wormintheglass]

You're sensible. Part of me likes that, part of me sees it as a challenge.

[cashlin]

Where's the fun in making things easy?

[hybridification]

I know that being terrifying is kind of a thing for you Vault Hunters, but maybe try being less so?

[cashlin]

Nah.
