Black Eye Guy
01-24-2008, 09:59 PM
Yeah I was wondering that too, lol. Nothing happened, cuz we haven't had a kennedy in a while, it would look like they haven't interacted in a while, and FFF seemed to go with the whole arkward thing so I just went with it.

Okay I don't really know where to go now with my current situation. Again I still have Spike chained to the wall.

Now I have my memories so do you think I should just talk to him and maybe fight a bit with some of my past feelings since they are all back now or are there any other suggestions out there?
If I had either Spike or Dru under my control and they had just dredged up old memories, I'd go for flashbacks and then real-time reactions -- either of stuff we saw on Buffy or of stuff you wanna make up from their time together. There's just too much emotional content there to pass up. Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time we saw Dru, didn't Spike have her tied up? Wasn't he threatening to kill her in order to prove his love to Buffy? Didn't she look incredibly hurt and betrayed (and like she pitied Spike) when she left? Now the tables are turned. There are a lot of questions hanging in the air there. Does Dru still love Spike? Part of her must. I don't think their sire/fledgling or 100-year-love bond just goes away. How does she feel about his betrayal? How does she feel about his soul? How does she feel about the fact that he died and came back? Does she want him back? Does she want him dead?
Can you tell I'm jealous? I mean, you and MR have a TON of really meaty emotional stuff to work through -- and given Dru's nature, you can couple that with all of the fun physical violence and icky perversion that you can dream up. It's a veritable gold mine of material. Plus, with the scoobies under attack at the monastery, it looks like you'll be free to mine it for some time.
If I were you, I'd give my imagination free reign and explore every twisted nook and cranny of Dru's newly regained memories -- starting with the Spike ones, while you've got him at your mercy.
I'm so jealous that I think I might have to write some fan fic in the very near future! lol. I say take it and run with it, adopted sis. This is just an awesome setup.

Well, I was pausing to give Faith a chance to respond/reflect on Indra and her reactions and whatnot. As for the husband, he's not going to be a character. He's just backstory for Indra. If you do decide to respond as the monk, then, I would prefer it if the husband had not yet been notified.

That's okay. I didn't think we'd actually get her. I just thought Xander would at least try to get ahold of her.
Hey, GateGod... is that sewer person supposed to be Indra? I'm getting ready to post for her and I'm confused. She can't be in two places at once and I don't wanna screw you up, so I figured I'd better check. I was gonna have her exit through the shop on Freak street instead of through the sewers, but if you need her to be in the sewer, I can change it.

Glad you guys liked Indra's dream. Thanks for the karma points. I don't want to take all the credit, though. I stole a lot of those images from Hindu myths and from Buffy and just sort of slapped them together in ways that I thought would create meaning. The idea there was, of course, that in Indra's subconscious mind, her slayer dreams are mixed with and inseparable from images of her religion.
But see, now I have a problem: Indra's at home in bed where, presumably, she must remain until morning unless someone comes and wakes her up. But the group at the monastery still has a fair amount of posting to do before morning. They need to get the girls buried, at least. So is it cool if I just leave Indra where she is until we get the Scoobies either asleep for the night or up the next day, too? I don't want anyone to think I'm dropping her or neglecting her or anything. It's just that I actually want to let her get some sleep and I think another super meaningful slayer dream thing would be overdoing it. :-)

Any ideas?
Well, I, personally, am tickled to death by the torturing Spike action. lol. Selfishly, I think you two should beat that horse until it's deader than dead. That's probably just me loving that particular scenario, though.
As far as other ideas go, well... Faith is currently right outside your lair. She just dispatched your best demon. She has your scythe within reach. There are a couple of things you could do. If Dru has any more minions sitting around, she could send them to be Faith fodder while she smuggles Spike out. Of course, Spike might fight that. A Spike/Dru fight would be tons of fun. If there's no reason for him to remain her prisoner, (now that she has the memories back) that could even free him up to come back to the group. Plus, he's seen Indra, so there's another little can of worms that could open.
Alternatively, she could take on Faith herself, and hey -- what's not to love about a Dru/Faith fight? If she's got a phone, she could even call Indra over to fight Faith -- not that I see Dru as being particularly well-versed in that kind of technology. Like she said in Angel, "Awww. I'm still lagging."
So, the way I see it, you could keep dragging up old memories with Spike, (possibly trying to regain his loyalty?) try to smuggle Spike out, (risking a Dru/Spike fight and a probable escape) or fight Faith yourself. All of those options sound really fun. They make me wish I hadn't sent Indra home to bed! lol.
Mesektet Ra
02-08-2008, 07:44 AM
I love beating this horse...there's a lot of horse to beat, believe me...but something's gotta be done soon, guys. Spike's just gonna black out again if the torture thing continues.
I'm up for whatever PV just suggested. Anything. I love this thing, I love the Spike/Dru drama, but the scenery has to change sometime soon.
On that point, can someone from that team at least try and save his ass? I'm not saying they have to be successful, but the fact that they're not even trying right now seems a bit out of character for them.
I'm sorry if that sounded snarky in any way, I'm just saying it seems a little weird to me.

I was going to have Xander suggest it after they bury the girls.

Feel free to glide over the putting the girls in the ground. It's good stuff, but they wern't part of the group so it's not that big a deal.
I think the Dru sending someone out to get Faith plot could be cool, that way you could have Faith bring him back, that will score Faith points so she's not "the bad guy" when she gets back aswell, and it would prob move the story along best :)

Sisyphus is the ancient Greek guy with the boulder. He was cursed, by the gods, to spend eternity pushing a boulder up a hill. When he finally got it to the top, it would roll down the other side, so he'd have to repeat the task all over again. Basically, he spent eternity pushing a boulder up a hill. Why did the gods curse him, you ask? In life and even in death, he made a habit of flouting the gods' authority and beating the system. He pulled some great stunts, the best one being ensuring the immortality of all mortals by binding Death in chains.

Spirit_Of_Fred
02-12-2008, 05:06 AM
well, it might be interesting to watch gunn, connor, or gwen react to her being fred (although gwen didnt know her that well), so it might be cool to do it in that respect. amy never actually met her, but maybe it would bring up questions? that could be fun. :)
as far as strategy-wise, if we're sneaking in and there are going to be a bunch of normal people, it would definitely be a good idea to disguise. but from what i understand, there's no one there except maybe some sort of demon guards. it seems that everyone involved in stopping us knows about magic, seeing as there are magical barriers and such, so going just in her normal skin wouldnt be a problem.
really, she's your character, though; you can choose to play it however you want :D.

By the way, Dru... if you want Dru to flea with Spike, you are welcome to take him (or try to take him) to Indra's house as a backup.
Could make an interesting setting for a conflict between Faith (and Spike, if he's able) vs. Dru and Indra, with the risk of getting Rajnath and Raja or maybe one of the servants involved as human shields/collateral damage. Plus, it would give me an excuse to wake Indra up and get her butt in gear. lol.

Hey, guys. I found an error in my last Indra post.
The heart of a twice-traitor beat beneath her breast. First, she had betrayed her family and her karma. She had turned her back on Rajanath and on Raja. She was a liar and a killer. But that could be excused. That was done in service of the devi, and, as such, was her most sacred duty of all.

Last time Xander posted, he had his axe and was ready to go. Should I just deposit Xander and the rest of the Scoobies back into the sewer and go from there, or should I wait for Dawn and Sam to agree or get ready to go or something?

Hey, guys. I found an error in my last Indra post.
"Karma" should be "dharma." Could a mod please edit that for me?
Donzo :) Love the post btw.
Should I go post in Dru's lair or wait for Dru to say the demon has dropped me in her lair? lol lair I like that word! I don't know if I can spell it. But I like it.

It's been four days. Is that sufficient? I can wait another day or two, though. It's no big deal. I just don't want the scobbies to miss all the sewer action. I feel a fight coming on, man! I love fights.

I used section breaks (with separate location headings) to indicate passage of time so that I could skip the part in which Indra walks to the lair. I already explained her route in an earlier post. I didn't think it wouldn't really contribute anything to the game to repeat that information or to show her walking through Kathmandu at night. So she didn't fly or teleport or anything; she walked. I promise!

Hey, guys!
I'm a little unsure of what to do now that we have no one playing Faith. I mean, Dawn, Xander, and Sam can't take Indra. If I make Xander attack Indra, I'll just plain have to kill him off, and I don't wanna do that! Slayergal suggested that Xander goes and helps with her demon, so I'm thinking of doing that.
That gives me something to do with one character, but then I still have Indra facing off with Faith over Spike. I don't feel like I can get her out of that until Faith responds in some way.
So... does anyone have any ideas to throw my way? Or does anyone have a way to resolve this situation (the fight in the sewer) without Faith's participation?

Well, I have actually made a few mistakes. :-) I actually had BEG edit one post for me because I had a total brain far and had Indra reference karma instead of dharma. Oy. I also think I called Spike a chick a couple of times, (the feminine devi vs. the masculine deva) screwed up the plural form, (which I *think* is devata) and I'm still not sure about the plural form of the word "dalit" (which, by the way, means "untouchable" and refers to those outside the caste system) It's, like, a *huge* insult when Indra, a Brahman by caste, calls someone a dalit.
In answer to your question, though, I took an Eastern Traditions religion class in college, so mostly I'm going by memory. I really liked Hinduism. Also, one of my best friends growing up was Hindu, so I picked up a few things. I have a translation of the Bhagavad Gita that I read every couple of years, too. If I need to look something up before posting for Indra, I'll just use Wikipedia. Mostly, though, my ideas come from my very foggy memories of college and of talking to friends.

The other thread will be ending soon as well so we can regroup and go from there?
We can leave the rogue thread open for Indra and Dru to meet up and still go along with whatever they have to do, and Sam and Riley could stay in Nepal to look for them, leavening SG to take over angel as planned?

Yea...my bad. I wasn't quite sure what Spike would do in that situation - I figure if he hadn't gotten his ass half-charred, maybe he'd be thinking correctly. But I think the only thing registering to him at that point besides the pain was HOLY SHIT OMG FAITH GOT STABBED DO SOMETHING.

Who should do the explaining? I think maybe Spike should. He spent more time with Dru and Indra, so he knows more about them. For example, he knows for sure that they are in cahoots. He knows Indra has a kid. He knows Indra's name. He knows everything there is to know about Dru. He's seen enough to suspect that Indra has some sort of different way of perceiving the things around her. He has also mentioned suspecting some sort of increased religious fervor. All things considered, I think his report would be more useful to the group as a whole.
That said.... Oh my God! Angel and Spike are in the same room. Yay! I am thrilled. I love it when Angel and Spike are in the same room. Pretty please, Slayergal and Mesektet Ra, will you make them be funny just for me? I loooove Angel and Spike banter.

And I'd totally post right now, but my brain isn't exactly running along RP lines at the mo'...I've been celebrating my birthday for three days. I think that about sums it up.
I'll make with the posty tomorrow, promise. You won't have to wait long. :D

I just posted Spike.
...as a general sidenote, I'm not entirely sure I'm happy with it. I played him very...emotionally closed off, which I guess makes sense, and he's purposefully not trying to think too in depth about Drusilla OR Indra.
.:sigh:. Wish I wasn't so picky. .:studies post like a science experiment:.

Don't be so hard on yourself! I think it was a good post. I don't see anything wrong with Spike wanting to be close-lipped about his ordeal. He told the Scoobies what they needed to know. The rest wasn't really any of their business. I can totally see Spike trying to be all tight-lipped and stoic about it, especially with Angel and Buffy in the room. I don't imagine either Dru or torture to be very comfortable subjects on the best of days, but especially not with those two around. I mean, for starters, how can he complain when he did pretty much the same thing to Angel a couple of years ago? Then there's Dru, whom he can't like mentioning around either Angel or Buffy. I think you did a good job. I didn't expect Spike to start moaning and groaning to every Scooby in sight.
That said, I am totally looking forward to the reactions of Angel, Buffy, Illyria, and Gwen.

I was wondering beg. Could we possibly bring in another slayer. I will play her and i will even come up with a dang good audition if you will allow me too. So please.

Do we have a new Faith, yet?
I'm just wondering. It occurs to me that when Indra was trying to lure Faith to her home in order to steal the scythe without a fight, she gave Faith her home address. Since Rajnath is a the head of Indra's father's business and also an advisor to the (recently ousted) King, he's something of a public figure. Having the address would lead the Scoobies to Rajnath and the kid. They could use that information to try to get the upper hand on Indra. If they were bad guys, they could kidnap the kid. Not sure what they should do as good guys, though. I'm just saying. Faith has an address and Spike knows she has a kid. That won't lead them to the ossuary, but it may provide the Scoobies with leverage to get at least one of the bad guys to come to them.

I'm sorry about the double post. I'm just curious. I'm trying to figure out who I can play Xander against. So... who's still here (in terms of having people play them)? I know Xander, Gwen, Spike, Angel, Buffy, and Giles are all around. I know Willow, Amy, and Faith are "gone" (as in, they're in the scene, but computer problems have taken them out of active play for the time being). But what about people like Dawn, Illyria and Connor?
Also, DDD... we can't do anything with Ansara right now or anything long term, but maybe we should do something with Dru and Indra? Maybe something small, sort of like the Yeti thing in Going Rogue, only evil? Like maybe Dru needs to feed or something?
Well, I was playing Connor until we got back to the compound...now we're back, I guess I'm done with him. ;)
You could fire some questions at Gwen if you like. now that Giles has started the ball rolling, you could jump on her. you could either play it sympathetically, or attack Gwen for not doing much to help the team. Choice is yours. Gwen and Xander haven't had much interaction, as far as I can remember, so it might be good to see something like that.
Completely up to you of course...I'm just happy for someone to take an interest in poor little me! :lmao:

^ I posted. I'm not too thrilled with it, actually. It was hard for me to figure out how Xander would respond to Gwen. I ended up playing it sympathetically, though, with a hint of flirting (mostly to goad Spike).

Argh. My Xander posts suck muchly lately. I tried to work around the absent team members so we could get some forward momentum, but I'm kind of thinking that we should maybe let our characters go do other things and then reconvene for the meeting when BEG gets back. I mean, none of us seem to know what the urn thingie does or what the next big plot point is, so we're all kind of spinning our wheels and lacking in direction.
If we exit the meeting, at least we can work on getting some one-on-one or solo time with our characters and rock the character development stuff.
What do you guys think?
I REALLY don't wanna spend any more time on my own. If we do this, can we at least have Gwen in a one-on-one with someone? I desperatly need someone to play off of, as I've sort of hit my limit on one shot, character delevoping posts.
I posted in the thread, sort of a 'here's what's happening so far' post, mostly to get the story straight in my own head, as much as keeping everyone else in the loop. If I've posted something wrong, then one of you guys can use it a plot mover and correct me.

Well, if we end up doing that, then I will gladly volunteer Xander up for some one-on-one with Gwen time. They've not really interacted at all, plus Xander has about zero desire to try to catch some Zs. He's also good at sympathizing with the odd-man-out stuff.

I'm down with that. Spike'll talk about the Indra and Dru thing in private with someone he trusts, but in front of everyone else, he's pulling a big ol' Angel. I guess that's kinda my fault. Haven't been much feeling the RP spirit as of late.
But I'm down for some one-on-oneage. Spike'll prolly head to the kitchen for some Jack and O-pos, if we're all in agreement here.

I'm on board with that too. Buffy needs some Z's but I don't think she will sleep much even if she wanted to. Weight of the world and all. I think I'm gona have her take a walk to clear her head a bit and then maybe come back and have a chat with someone. Hot chocolate may even be involved;). I'm thinking she needs to feel like she has some power back in the situation. She has all the responsibility and no control. Sucky combination. I'm thinking she needs to vent, freak-out, spank her inner moppet and get her arse in gear again.
A throw down in the gym might be in order for Buffy, Kean. Let her beat on someone for a while to vent her frustrations. Since we're running out of active leathal weapon peoples, I'm gonna suggest Angel.
Hey, Palabra, I was thinking, after we're dismissed from the meting, Gwen might wanna wander around the hallways...maybe she can run into Xander on his way to/from the bathroom or something?

Yeah think I might just do that Lyr. Maybe get her doing some Ti Chi with him again. Ok I'll be back tonight to post.

Hey guys sorry I got side tracked here lately. Anyhow just thought I'd let everyone know I didn't disappear. I'll try to post tonight right now I got to get me and the little man ready to leave. Angel is definitely up to doing some Ti Chi or something with Buffy to help get things rolling along.

05-08-2008, 12:02 PM
Cool! I really want to try and explore where Buffy and Angel would be at right now. I'm thinking he might be the only one to help her put of the funk I've put her in!

FYI on my last post. Cromwell was and still is considered one of the most brutal Bastards in Irish history. He was an English army officer that came and 'planted' Ireland. Basically he confiscated nearly all of Irish land from the people and in place put English and Scottish planters. He would have been especially hated in Angel's part of Ireland where he was extremely cruel and vicious. Most of the things he did would be considered war crimes if not genocide nowadays.
Also Muc(muck) savages basically means barbarians.

Hey, guys! Is anyone still around? I miss Xander and Indra! I left Xander hanging on a question in the Spike/Gwen/Xander hot chocolate run and Indra was the last to post in the Indra/Dru/Ansara thread.

I'm still alive and kicking. Went out of town this weekend - hence the lack of postage.
I'm kind of really tired right now, but I promise promise I'll post later today.
Sorry people! I got side tracked with my Grandmother being taken into hospital. But she got out today, so I should be able to get back in the swing of things, so I'll prolly post an update tonight.
Ok, Xander asked for a description of the urn, and I gave one, but if I've mentioned something wrong, can someone tell me and I'll edit the post? I have no idea what this urn's supposed to look like, so I basically used artistic licience and made it up, lol.

wow, you guys look so on top of things in BEG's absence :D. and 25 posts in the RPG? yeah, not intimidating ;). well, i will get right on it, and then amy will be back in action! :) its good to be back :D.
EDIT:
and sorry, but ive been told i read kind of slow, because i like to concentrate really fully on what im reading. hopefully wont take more than a week. if im really on the ball and nothing pressing comes up, i might even be done today (ah, naive wishful thinking :p). ill let you guys know when im back up to speed.

Do we have confirmation on what this looks like yet, guys? That will sorta change Xander's response.
BEG is AWOL...or AWL, as he told he was going to be missing for a while, so there's nothing definite as of yet. Maybe we should just press on, and me or BEG can edit posts if and when it's needed.

Yeah I second that Lyri. I know were low on numbers but we can still plough ahead. I'm kinda stranded outside waiting for Angel to respond so how about someone runs out and screaming for me or something before Angel has a chance to respond?
SOF is back as Amy, and she's the only one really available right now. Gwen, Xander and Spike are holed up in the kitchen. Unless...
I've still got access to a few other characters. I could 'borrow' one of them for a while, maybe give Buffy something to do.
What exactly are you looking for, Kean? I wanna be able to choose the right character.
Keanoite
05-27-2008, 06:53 AM
I don't know really. Who have you got? I just want to get doing something.
I got Kennedy, Robin Wood and Connor.
I've been using Connor a lot lately, in the other thread, so maybe one of the others would be better. Where was Kennedy when all the other stuff was going on? Who's team was she with or did she stay with Buffy?
Keanoite
05-27-2008, 07:02 AM
She was with Buffy. Where was Wood?
I haven't used Wood in months. I dropped him right after Gwen, Xander and Wood's little trip to the electricty department to turn the lights back on at the Joshua Tree Training Camp...that was a LONG time ago.
Keanoite
05-27-2008, 07:14 AM
LOL...I wasn't even here then! Which in fairness wouldn't be hard since I'm only here 6 months!
You'll probably kick my arse but Connor would be the one out of all of them that I would prefer. I don't think Buffy has much of anything to say to Kennedy or Wood.
