I repeat. Crisp. And. Sexy.
No regrets. No capitulation. No fucking around.
Fuckin' peace.

Reporting in a bit late to tell you one thing, bro.
Nice work.

My usernames are always crisp and sexy. Never have I once regretted an appellation of my own designs, never once have I wished to bury an alias. The fact that all of you have been in the past so misguided and rash as to come up with names that you later came to despise only reflects poorly on you. All you neons indeed are indeed belong to me. Fuck y'all. Peace.

You seem like you've given this sufficient thought, so I'm going to go ahead and support you on this. From an ideological standpoint I still prefer a highly detailed plan over a loose general one, but that's just style and if this style is what seems like it has the best chance of working out smoothly I'll do my best with it. I've only glanced over the Ren'Py system so I can't say much for formatting though...

You should try. What's life without whimsy?

Just let yourself be open to changing majors if you have to. I know someone who went through 6 majors before deciding on math and now she makes six figures so being too married to one idea before you have experienced it isn't the best.

You'll just have to wait and see.

What is the up in the world of witchery and warriors with locks my apparition of ebony sorcery?

You still have time to change that.

Friendly advice. Don't do creative writing. This is 100% genuine and neither snide nor snarky stuff coming from me to you by the glorious grace and generosity of our servers. Creative writing is a dead end. Most people who get a degree in it don't end up being screen writers, novelists or even journalists. They get a secondary degree in something else and drudge their lives away in a normal job. If they hold onto hope they live in poverty and are pitied by those around them. This has happened to people I've known getting fine arts degrees. So be careful. If you maintain any interest in computer science past your freshman year stick to it and get the full major. Just remember that you can always minor or double major if you still want some creative writing in your life but I suggest English over creative writing because it's better and also gives you law and library science options out of school.

Where do you actually want to go then?

That will involve massive rewrites as it is and some people are going to end up writing something for this only to have none of it show up in the final product. I'm going to guarantee that right now. I'm not trying to be adversarial here, but I feel like you are vastly underestimating how differently each person can and will interpret the simple plot we've got running right now. I could write Aliyah as a chain smoking, one-eyed midget with an inferiority complex and a propensity for wearing top hats and still be (barely) within the bounds of the prompt. I'm sure no one is going to go that extreme but you can see the point that has been made here. We are going to have seven characters with the same name and no reconciliation possible by the end. To lessen this we should agree on some baseline things about each character at least. Actual personality traits. I know you're probably just trying to make this easier for people to contribute to and more friendly and fluffy but everyone who's going to be contributing needs to accept that their own personal egos and opinions are subordinate to the needs of the project here and they need to put the group before themselves and that means agreeing now who we are writing about before projecting our own ideas onto the project against the will of the other writers. We are a team, not a set of individuals.

If you're okay with putting in the extra work, I'll concede my point and let you guys hammer that out yourselves, but everyone that is here is here to help, asking for a little more isn't gonna kill our interest in helping out I'd imagine.

An example of what I mean by a character baseline follows below.

Spoiler

Aliyah Crews -

Appearance:​

Skin - Coffee, if I'm gonna try to use my crayon set for nomenclature​

​

Personality:​

Intelligence - About average, she's not the quickest or most observant person and her memory could use some work but she more or less gets it and doesn't need help with anything she'd normally be expected to do.​

Likes - cartoons and anime, nostalgia for things less than 10 years old, video games, being congratulated or thanked, this one guy​

Dislikes - History, reading, criticism, being looked down on, not knowing what's happening, being told to stay quiet​

Self control - Fairly emotional​

Interpersonal - Not very charismatic, but friendly and polite at least​

​

Skills:​

Technical - None​

Artistic - AMV's​

Social - Normal stuff​

​

General: ​

She's above all else normal. She's not particularly nice nor mean. If she saw someone getting beat up she'd call the police but wouldn't dream of helping even if she felt she could. Online, however, she's a much bolder personality with a greater tendency to throw herself into things, even if it's a bad idea. She's easily confused by her life and the world around her, but she's like 14 so we'll forgive her for that. Making friends is her strong suit because for all she lacks in uniqueness and salient qualities in general she makes up for in being a good listener who doesn't make snap decisions and tries to stay agreeable with people she first meets. ​

Verbal Tics:​
