  1. IC: 

     

    - Vwynolyn; Brute Force Prevails - 

     

     

    As she was detained and wrestling with the guards, she shot daggers in her eyes back up to the reappearance of the captain. While her anger only managed to flare back up at the sight of the woman who slighted her in such an offensive manner, at least from her perspective, the woman's words caught Vwynolyn off guard and quite clearly. She stopped wrestling and stared up with a smile starting to form on her lips, lifting up her chest a bit as was allowed with her arms restrained. 

     

    "So I win?" She called up, not really caring if this was the Empress who apparently she annoyed. All she knew was that she was going to get the audience she wanted. Perhaps a worse fate awaited her, but at least she was going to be allowed to speak to someone who held the power to actually put into action what she wrote into a petition around a week ago. 

  2. IC: 

     

    - Vwynolyn; Sleep Deprived Rager - 

     

    She expected to hear about cuffs sooner or later, though at the same time she found herself not terribly caring on that front. But when the last comment came through and hit her ears, she stood back up incredibly quickly, fists clenched and teeth barred. "What did you just call me, you walking tin can?"  Anger clear in her tone, her eyes narrowed and before she could come to any sensible form of "maybe this is a bad idea," the disenfranchised Dasaka attempted to charge the door yet again. She couldn't reach the captain from where she was, but if she could, or had a forethought to use a weapon, she would have gone directly for that woman's throat for that comment that set her off. 

     

    This charge, unlike the others, was filled with a renewed sense of strength born form pure, unadulterated anger. While she wasn't using powers, or weapons, if the guards chose to impede her this time she was going to fight them. Likely with a fist swinging to one of their faces before being overpowered, granted she wasn't quite in the most stable spot in her life: she hadn't slept for two days, she'd made a habit of drinking, and she wasn't thinking as clearly as someone trained like her ought to. 

     

    But as far as angry six foot tall creatures went, Vwynolyn was more than ready to bite, scratch, kick and scream to try and claw off the captain's face, despite this captain was out of her reach and there were two other guards in her way. Which only meant the object of her anger would be shifted to them, instead, in the heat of this impassioned door assault. 

  3. IC: 

     

    - Vwynolyn; Throwing a Tantrum - 

     

    "Pigeon refuse? That's it? That's all you got?" Vwynolyn almost wished there was a bird within grabbing distance, because at this point she'd make a point of trying to throw one at the Captain at this rate of how things were going for her. "You act like I'd even care about that at this point! But whatever about that, I don't really care. I'll stay here as long it takes. Not like I give a flying ###### about my honor, about clan Fursic's honor, about your honor, their honor -- you can all ingest a cactus for all I care. I have something important! That I've waited, and waited, and waited, and waited on. And, at LEAST I only assaulted the door," Vwynolyn pointed at the rather scuffed surface from successful runs. "But I don't care about what you have to say, there's nowhere for me to even go off to so I may as well sit right here and LOUDLY wait." To make a point of it she simply fell onto her rear on the hard ground, visibly wincing, but doing it in such a manner to get her point across. 

     

    Unhappily, the effeminate Dasaka crossed her arms over her chest, glaring veritable daggers at the Captain who proved of less help than a burned sack of feces. Which, in retrospect, she wished she had to throw at the guards who were all more in her way than she wanted. Then again, that would likely be some crime on par with near treason since it'd be fairly easy to claim she intended to set the building ablaze. 

     

    "And I'm not your friend, amigo." She muttered under her breath. 

  4. IC: 

     

    - Vwynolyn; Probably Yelling - 

     

    "WELL, doesn't that just MEAN I'm the most impassioned for my cause?!" She responded in a tone mixed with frustration and anger, "AND I maybe don't CARE if your... whatever doesn't run all day or what have you, if you aren't gonna be convenient for me why should I be convenient for you?" Vwynolyn continued, pointing now at the Captain, staring back up at her. "But it's not like I have anywhere else to be, anything else to do and, think about this! I've been exceptionally well behaved since I sent that thing in! Except maybe one time, but that's an exception!" Agitated and unhappy with the response she was receiving she simply continued yelling, and frowned heavily at one of the woman's comments. 

     

    "And I'm not your buddy, pal." 

  5. IC: 

     

    - Vwynolyn; Local Nuisance - 

     

    After she was thrown back after her most recent attempt, Vwynolyn panted heavily as she continued to sit on the ground this time. Almost picking herself back up, someone poked out. Precisely who it was, she couldn't tell. Or care. At least someone else was talking now, and while the words that came from the Captain of the Guard's mouth were dull, boring and uninteresting the Dasaka on the ground rolled her deep pink hued eyes. 

     

    "Four in the morning? Well so-rr-y." Vwynolyn muttered when she stood back up, disheveled, irritable, likely running on a lot of pent up energy. Her armor was a bit scuffed around her hands, the rest of her not much better for wear, considering she hadn't been the most peaceful person in general. Over the last week, when she sent through the petition, she had yet to actually get into any trouble. 

    "I just... I sent a petition okay? And it's been months! I got all the way here, I have nothing better to do, I'm impatient, and these turds wouldn't let me so much as knock." Vwynolyn immediately pointed at the two guards she dubbed as turds, not backing down from that assessment. "So now my butt hurts, my hands hurt, my throat hurts, but I don't care. This is important! And it's been abso-lutely impossible. And one of them smells bad." Eventually she pulled herself up more properly to her full height, not precisely a short individual. 

  6. IC:

     

    - Vwynolyn; Being Annoying - 

     

    It felt like months passed by, but they hadn't. Vwynolyn sent out a petition in order to be legally recognized how she personally wanted: no prior approval from her clan, no prior approval from anyone but herself and her own boldness as to pen her own request. As a writer she appeared surprisingly well written, detailing precisely what her issue was and what she wanted out of the entire arrangement. Ideally, Vwynolyn merely wished to talk to someone, anyone, with the authority to grant her wish and requests and so she could actually enforce her own gender identification based on the law itself. Fighting people on the subject, literally and verbally, felt like such a chore and perhaps, in her mind, this might give her some more credence in general. If nothing else, maybe it would allow new opportunities to arise and new paths for her to pursue, granted walking about as what essentially passed as a drunken vagabond lost it's appeal a long while ago. 

     

    Right now she was an impatient, agitated, strangely energetic despite the hour, vagabond who looked the guards standing directly outside the doors with a sense of disdain and aggravation. For the most part they seemed uninterested in her, maybe entertained, granted Vwynolyn wasn't actually picking fights with them and was instead attempting to run past them repeatedly to bang on the doors with her own two hands. She succeeded a few times, but multiple blows and being thrown back onto the hard ground made her muscles and body tired and sore. 

    Panting heavily, she made a distressed yell, more wanting to draw the attention of someone within. Perhaps not the best thing to do when wanting a favor, but at this point she was to the edge of her patience and couldn't stand waiting any longer. And once more, she threw herself at the door in an attempt to reach past the guards to knock on it with her fists yet another time. 

  7.  I knew some folks would get instantly triggered but I said 'screw it'.

     
    Making light of the term "trigger" in an emotional context isn't cool. There's better language out there.
     
    Anyway;
     
     
    I had a dream a few times. Kind of a recurring nightmare, but in thinking about it I realized it's fine for BZPower and I'm passed the point where recalling it induces panic attacks and the like.
     
    This dream started a few years ago and it comes up every now and again, not so much recently (can't really talk about recent nightmares I've had here), and it always starts the same way. 
     
    It's night and I'm downtown, there's some event I'm usually on my way to that must be like a party or something? Sorta weird since I don't usually go to things like big parties. My anxiety doesn't help me there, and all that jazz. But at the start I always remember being in incredibly high spirits; back when it was a bit more noticeable to me since I was always going out with longer hair (ie: my hair now) and wearing a pretty simple, but nice black dress with my usual leather boots that have stylistic buckles down the side. 
     
    Every time I have this dream it's set like right after it rained, so the ground is wet, it's a bit cold and those details stand out to me a lot as it progresses. But, eventually, I always get to this one part. Usually there's a single light post, the light's kinda dim and and it just sort of spotlights the area I stop at. There's always that feeling of impending dread, like you know something bad is about to happen, but this part is usually harder to remember in detail. 
     
    Someone approaches me, usually larger than me and bulkier (thicker coat, heavier steps, broader shoulders and taller). Something happens between me and this figure, like an exchange of words (I remember mine are usually frightened, but for the life of me I can never remember what this character says), and in the end of the exchange he always pulls out a gun. 
     
    It's a revolver, what kind I dunno, but it always looks darker in the weirdly off lighting and usually all I remember from this is the barrel pointing at me in vivid detail. Then it's fired and I don't wake up at this point, everything just goes a lot slower and I'm sort of there in utter shock I was just shot. 
     
    The weird thing about it is, I like, feel the impact? It knocks me back and I can't breathe, before hitting the ground and staring just directly up at the sky. It's a weird like, dream-sense of dying? Like I suppose what my brain kinda figures it'd be like.
     
    First time I had this dream I woke up after my eyesight faded in the dream itself. I remember sweating really badly and hyperventilating. Since then, it's sort of been a focus when I talk about dreams in therapy I've had. It's come back on occasion, but I always remember it the same way it went the first time. It still rattles me when it comes up, and I usually need to do something to calm down after, but it's not as bad as some of the others I had throughout last year and the year before can be. 
     
    I dunno, it kinda sticks with me? And I figured I'd share it 'cuz... well, I'm passed the point where it actually induces anxiety/panic attacks and stuff like that.

  8. Vwyn was last seen inviting one of my characters to dinner. Which is why I still remember that rather obscure factoid.

    Oh right! Sorry I kinda vanished on you, I can't remember '15 so well but I know the last few years were pretty hectic for me in general. I mean, I'd pick it back up in a heartbeat I just am unsure if like... years passed, or something. I read of there being a timeskip in the overall big post, but I can't recall if that occurred before or after I was around then (to be honest I was unaware of a 2 month data deletion at all).

     

    Annnnd also not to mention the like, actual 1 year + x.x;;

  9. Good to have you back. ^^  Your profile is right here, if you were looking for it.  The search function in the upper right has saved my life many times over, and I'd recommend using it if you have anything to get caught up on.

    (Thank you, on a side note I was being kinda lazy I admit x.x;;; I didn't think someone would go find it for me, sorry for the trouble )

     

    Oh, so my character's... I suppose family, is kinda involved in some Imperial murder. That's cool, good thing I chose that one when I started haha. I guess it's a boon it's more or less established she and her family aren't on the best of terms then (granted with me not like, playing the character in so long, I kinda doubt that changed much).

     

    Alright, so reading all that, I'm under the impression it'd be fine if my character like left Ga-Koro? I might have her be there regardless for just ease of everything. I just figured if I ran into someone interested to interact I wouldn't necessarily want to be limited to the one zone in the event they're elsewhere.

     

     

     

    So I garner that your Dasaka is on Mata Nui, and unfortunately, despite having the Empress of the Dasaka, I have... zero intel to give about any of my subjects on Mata Nui. lol

    WELL alrighty then. But yeah I kinda figured it'd be nice if she was there versus Archipelago since like, that place used to feel pretty empty a lot. I imagine more people have their characters milling about the actual island at this point, unless Archipelago somehow became like a hub of activity since I've been away. I just remember it always being pretty sparse as far as players went who weren't wrapped up in stuff.

  10. Hi Kit. <3 

     

    What is this, an family old guard reunion?

    To be completely honest I wandered in here a week ago and was like, just remembering old stuff in a Discord channel and like, had like a sudden urge to come back haha. I kinda sat on the thought for a bit since I didn't want to just come and go, and then other familiar faces popped up and I was like "does this just click in people around the same time or something jeeze."

     

    Mostly I forgot about my character and realized I really missed playing her.

  11. Okay, okay. 

     

    It's been a while, like, more or less 2+ years since my last post (stuff actually got kinda nuts IRL around the time and to be honest I just forgot everything). So, I was wondering some stuff and looked through that BZPRPG "what's goin on" post and like, apparently it hasn't been updated for a long while? I read bits here and there to try and speed up looking through it to what was relevant to my old character. 

     

    Been kinda flirting with the idea of popping back, and sorta like missed my character a lot. Soooo I was wonderrrrriiiiiiing, if that is as outdated as it seems to be based on the "last edited" timestamp; if there's like, a basic rundown of events anywhere relating to the Dasaka? (Character was Fursic, Vwynolyn who's profile is... is buried uh... somewhere... in that there profiles thread). 

     

    Mostly just like, uh... if I popped back in with my character, like... where I would basically be able to play her I guess? Since I'm kinda at a bit of a loss, I mean I get what's written in the post, but if it's over a year old I'm preeeettttttyyyyyy sure stuff happened since then. If not I'll actually be impressed and everyone here gets a gold star for making this easier. (Are the Dasaka like pretty much just hanging out in Ga-koro so other locations would be off limits on Mata-Nui I guess? x.x;;; )

     

    And like uh, if there'd be something around I could like put her into to be involved? I always had a hard time finding things going on to be involved with, sooooo... yeaaaaaaaahhh.

     

    Unless I missed like a basic rundown of stuff. I might've. If there's one on this page I'm suddenly gonna feel silly now.

     

    Hi.

  12. Oh yeah haha, I stopped by since I was a bit out of things to do and figured to check it out. Just talked a bit in chat since I tend to do that in general and my name was the obnoxiously long pink one (was surprised it wasn't considered an "illegal" name by Twitch due to the length, but everything else I usually use was taken already). It was fun though. c: 

  13. I completely forgot about LEGO Batman. I even -have- it on my PSVita for like, so long -- it was fun from what I remember, I'm just like, so surprised I never went through to finish it. 

     

    Hope it's been fun to stream, though! I'll probably pop in this week. c:

  14. Hm, thinking....

     

    Bionicle sort of fell out of my interests... probably during the 2006 and 2007 lines. Metru-Nui was also a really sharp departure from what everyone was used to at the time: going from a tropical island, with basic technology and surviving, all the way into a hyper-advanced city was pretty jarring of a change. For fans, it also... I mean, to a degree it came out of the blue? I recall there being some hints to "other Toa" in I think... either one of the old books or the flash game, can't remember right now where. 

     

    2006 and 2007 sort of combined all these massive organizations (ie: Order of Mata-Nui, Brotherhood of Makuta, those seven Kingdoms or whatever) into one arc and, as an individual, I never liked what the Makuta overall became (kind of another jarring departure from what the character, Makuta, was presented as at Bionicle's onset). But at this point things were getting a bit too much on the "we need shock value" scale, a lot of people -- fans a lot -- at the time liked it since people seemed to feel it was more "mature" but that's only true in the sense of... rating, really. It was a lot of dark death and destruction, and I never enjoyed that -- now this isn't to say I didn't like Sayger's artwork, because I did like it and while it did fit in the narrative, just the overall narrative of those years felt really... strange? For a Lego kids line, at least. 

     

    (( I completely fell out 2008 and further, I absolutely disliked the Mistika/Phantoka designs since they seemed so chunky and clunky and silver, but maybe the story wasn't bad )). 

     

    2009 I feel might've been a lot better if they had gone with that to be their hard reboot, rather than a soft reboot that just made an already confusing world all the more confusing (not to mention all the dimension hopping and such in the serials).

     

    My favorite years, personally, were 2001 - 2005, 2006 was alright but it kinda went down into the territory I tended to criticize it for a lot around then. 

     

    (Oh, and another: When Greg allowed BZP to help canonize things in the world. That pretty much killed a lot of my interest in the series with what as coming out and... yeah).

  15. haha yeah, lookin' at it like, it's pretty wild how much people change over the years just in general

     

    i kinda remember like, my old stuff up there (i had a rl pic for a time, swapped to like... a manga screencap i think?). if you saw me then and now you'd think i was like that person's bigger sister and then surprised you're looking at the same person just after so much time.

     

    (im pretty unrecognizable from back then, old high school friends who see me from way, way back are shocked it's me. guess it kinda comes with being transgender, but man).
