For the record, I LOVE what Yoshiro says. He's so grandiose! It really adds a dramatic flair to the JPs/missions that I loveIf I am going over board in sp, please let me know and I'll tone it down. I just wanted to show that when he lost his father when the Mishhu invaded Yamatai, if I remember correctly, he's had it in for them ever sinc3, which is why he says the things he says, like what he says to the enemy boarding parties. Again, just let me know if I am going overboard and I will tone it down.
I am glad you like it. There is a reason for that though, and to make a long story short, while he was serving on the original Aeon during the First Mishhuvurthyar War, he lost his father when he was away. He had felt angry he wasn't on Yamatai when they invaded and felt guilty because of his inability to protect his family. His mother, brother and sister made it out though so he is somewhat glad.For the record, I LOVE what Yoshiro says. He's so grandiose! It really adds a dramatic flair to the JPs/missions that I love
Heya folks!
So, looks like I need some help. If I look at the last few SP's in the current thread and the start of the latest JP, I seem to somehow be writing Okimi in such a way that nobody wants to respond to my writing/interact with her.
This really sucks, so I need to figure out what the problem is and address it. But I'm coming up short, so maybe I'm too close to the problem to see the issue.
So if y'all have any ideas, please let me know! If you're not comfortable discussing such here, feel free to convo me in private here on the forums or PM me on Discord.
Thanks lovelies!
If you search "Yoshiro" in the JP you'll see somewhere we thought he would exclaim a battlecry : ) I hope that's okay, we were really missing your guy!Sorry I missed jp yesterday my sarcoidosis was acting up again and I fell asleep.

It won't ever go away but managing it is easy.i hope everything is better now
I actually have wanted to, I've just been way to busy with the audit to post. I was reading through it this morning and I was thinking I missed so many good opportunities to talk to Okimi and throw grenades.
Your post makes it hard to tell if she's injured along with her suit or if she's fine: "Okimi had somehow managed to avoid the worst of it and pulled the impromptu rescue off." Vs "Now, sat on the ground in her charred and beaten suit..." Then she's just sitting in the JP intro, making it hard to reply since she's not talking or actively doing something. If she had been hurt, Wes would have 100% had Poppy tend to her. Wes is also the type of GM that he wants you to say what you did and he says the consequence (good or bad). So if you had said that Okimi flew to Yayoi and tried to bring her back as best she could, he would have had more to go off of. As it stands, he saw your post and saw that the action and conclusion were accounted for, so he moved on.
When I first joined his plot years ago he ignored my character a lot and it was sometimes frustrating but then when I learned what to not write it all started coming together. He structures his plot as a team with everyone contributing proactively and himself as the reactionary element, if that makes sense.
It's hard to stop and check on our fellow team members, but I do hear you that you're looking for that helping hand IC and will try to play Mineko able to do as much when it makes sense. It's good to have the open communication and say when you're feeling left out, so thank you for doing that much.
