Black finally awoke in his hospital bed, bolting upright and immediately grasping for his staff.
"Ugh... where am I now?" |

{{I've mentioned this a few other times, but I'm thinking of dropping this plot, for the following reasons.
1) It's gotten too long, and if I want to end it properly, I'll have to make it longer than it already is. Plots shouldn't be this long, should they? Plus, nothing new has happened, and it's hard to do new things when people are going inactive all the time or aren't all on at the same time. D:
2) It revolves too much around my OCs. I'd be better off dropping the plot and writing it up in YC, with my OCs.
3) I feel like people think all my OCs are automatically involved in the Oress Plot, and therefore, only the plot members pay attention to them.
4) There's other plots I've been wanting to start, but the Oress Plot is in the way.
I'm considering "restarting" it. Anyone who wanted to keep their Oress would be able to "reserve" it, or they could take the chance and try to earn a different one. The plot would be fixed so it wouldn't center so much around my OCs, and people without an Oress would play a role equal to that of the Oress Holders. The Oress themselves would get a bit more attention, and Umbra Tear would play a more prominent part than the "side villain". Niya Mitsu would be removed from the plot, but Tayl would still play a minor role in it.
So...
Y/N?}} |

((Well, I haven't been posting becuase... NOTHING'S been happening.
Restarting it with those changes may make it less intresting. It would have been better to do it the same, but the Oress Holders come up with a sub-plot to advance their own experiences... I mean, stories normally have things happen to other people that everyone helps with as WELL as the main conflict.
But it may be easier to just drop it all and make it a story..)) |

((I say we restart it. I mean, this has been going since November, was it? And most of the time it was OBLIGATORY GEE, IT SURE IS BORING AROUND HERE. or something to that extent.
Maybe if we restart, we can try again and make a plot. And not drag it on with random crap happening to try to make excitement and I R BORED LOL. Of course, if we DO restart it, we might wanna just lay off it for a while before starting it so you can think up of what to do. :D?)) |

{{Yeah. I haven't been doing anything, because most people aren't all on at the same time, not to mention some of the Oress Holders are inactive; or keep switching in between active and inactive. Whenever I do something big, someone misses it, and then they end up lost.
At this point; I can't progress without screwing up. I'm at a dead end, so I feel that the best option is to drop it. I kind of want to restart it, with some minor plot changes and a lot of improvements. Then I might write up the Oress Story thing, and you'd see where it would've ended up at.
Personally, I think the problem is that I made it too complex. People got lost, I got confused, it was difficult to continue...if it was simpler, it would've been more fun, and probably a better plot.
There was also a lack of sub-plots, which help progress the story, make it more involving, and they're fun. But I was too busy with the big plot to think about anything else. I was too busy thinking of what I'd do with my own characters than about everyone else in the plot. The members of a plot should play an equal, if not larger, role in the story with the creator.
So, I think it would help if I restarted it, and changed it around to make it more fun for EVERYONE, not just me.
Yeah.}} |

((If you restart, I'm probably going to join with a different character, if that's alright. I think I'm going to drop Zidane for a while...
Here's hoping the whole thing goes better the second time around? D: )) |

{{Anyone who wants to keep their Oress can "reserve" it. I advise people to give them up, however, and then re-prove themselves for a different Oress, or a different one, so more people can have a chance to get one. Not forcing, though.}} |

{{Not to sound rude, but I usually don't like having people help me on big things. Dunno why; I've always been a loner. Not really into group-projects and all. However, I'm open to suggestions, criticism, advice, ideas, questions, and anything. I'll have the plot roughly set out, and then the members kind of pull it all together.
So...guess that's the kind of help I take. My inbox is always open y'know.}} |
