Been a couple months since we’ve done this. Sound off, y’all.

Post in with:
- your name
- your mun journal
- your AIM handle/best means of contact
- your pups
- your availability
- your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add
- LET’S THREAD/PROFIT.


For bonus points, specify how you found Milliways and tell of any interesting life milestones you’ve passed since you’ve joined.

Your name - Write

Your mun journal - [personal profile] fightingthecage

Your AIM handle/best means of contact - AIM is MilliwaysWrite, but email or PM is always best to get me - writetolive at gmail dot com. Also! There is Twitter. I am @notthathard on there, and if I've got my phone with me, will always get notifs. Saying that, I prefer not to hold M'ways convos on there. Always fine for a quick hit-up, though.

Your pups -

Gene Hunt[personal profile] the_gene_genie
Bruce Banner[personal profile] spit_it_out
Bruce Wayne [personal profile] master_bruce
Javert [personal profile] never_shall_yield

Your availability - GMT, most evenings and into the early hours. I expect my availability to go down from the end of September, as Uni starts. But I'll only know once I get there.

Your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add - my thread preferences are pretty much anything. Bring it. I'm not shy of threading whatever.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT - BRING ALL THE THREADS.

Bonus points - I found Milliways through the 24 fandom. A group of fic writers were playing here, so I apped a pup and never looked back. As for life milestones - ha! This place has seen me through re-doing college (English version thereof), three years of University, a baby - who did not exist when I started playing, and is now nearly six, omfg - and will see me start (and hopefully finish) a Masters degree next month. Craziness. My love for this place knows no bounds, even if it is horribly distracting. <333

Your name: Quinn or Quinby or Quiverby! Generally, if it starts with a Q, it's me. :D

Your mun journal: Theoretically, I have one at [personal profile] quinby, but I don't post. If you really want me, I'm at quiverby on Twitter. I tweet like a mad fiend.

Your AIM handle/best means of contact: I actually lost my AIM password, so if you want me, you can find me at the aforementioned Twitter, or angelicphoenix on gchat, quiverby on Skypechat or really just e-mail me. angelicphoenix at gmail.

Your pups: Joshua Donovan ([personal profile] damncompass), Helena Wells ([personal profile] timelessinventor), Fantine ([personal profile] dreamed_a_dream) and Valentine Wiggin ([personal profile] empath_wiggin). (Also, in the past, I've played Mark Cohen, half of the Rent main cast, Qui-Gon Jinn, Lucius Malfoy, Ponder Stibbons, Thomas Silverfish, and I'm pretty sure others I've forgotten. Val and Mark were my mains until Joshua came about.)

Your availability: I can generally swing just about anything up to twelve PM EST, (later if it goes that way, or if I know it's coming), but once we hit February, I won't be on at work as much.

Your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add: Honestly, I'm up for anything, whether it's an interaction that'll end bad for my characters (I'm still holding my breath for the Javert and Helena and Javert and Fantine threads.) or something awesome. I am a fade-to-black person, mostly because I can't freaking write sex to save my life. (what goes where now?) Otherwise, COME AT ME BROS. Also, as a note. I have bi-polar disorder, and it tends to crop up a lot. Sometimes I'll drop threads because I'm emotionally feeling utterly shitty, sometimes I'll drop threads because I'm an absolute idiot. Absolutely never feel bad to prod me about something and keep prodding me at a thread that you'd like to keep up. I mean it. Frankly, that helps sometimes. :/

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: Yes, please.

Bonus Points: To tell you the honest truth, I can't freaking remember how I found the bar. Maybe someone on my LJ friendslist posted about it? I really can't remember. eeeesh. As to milestones, holy potatoes. I've got and lost many jobs, I've been homeless twice, and I got engaged. (Milliways wedding's coming at some point, guys! whooooo.) I'm now settled (I hope) and I'm hella glad that Milliways is in my life.

Name: Heather, or Heater

Mun journal: This one!

AIM handle: eccofiore

My pups: Alan(na) of Trebond ([personal profile] the_lioness), Thayet ([personal profile] peerless_thayet), Jim Craig ([personal profile] snowy_river_man), Grace Hanadarko ([personal profile] headed4hell), Elizabeth Turner ([personal profile] try_corsets), Lana Kane ([personal profile] truckasaurus_mitts), Doctor Evil ([personal profile] doc_evil) and soon, if I remember to app him... a grumpy-ass werewolf.

My availability: Usually very good, if my body and/or computer cooperate. Hello, everyone still waiting on tags from me. I'm so sorry. ilu?

My thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany: I'm usually up for just about anything, as are my characters, so long as OOC communication happens in regards to anything important -- like your character figuring out Alan is actually Alanna, for example.

And let's be honest: if it sounds utterly ridiculous and there is the slightest chance I can make someone laugh, I'll be all over it. :D

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: YES, PLEASE.

Seriously. I love any and all threads.

BONUS:

I missed my milliversary again! Dang it.

Anyway, nine years ago on August 5th (holy crap), I threw Alanna in the bar. I was pretty lonely (long story), discovered Milliways via my flist, saw someone awesome playing Thom, apped Alanna on a whim, and never looked back. This place and the friends I've made here have definitely helped me through some of the worst times in my life and been there to smile with me at some of the best. I <3 you all. :)

Name: Camwyn

Mun journal: [personal profile] camwyn

AIM handle/best means of contact: camwyn cwru; I also respond to email, which is my user name at megaloceros dot net

Pups: Currently active are Gordon Freeman, Adrian Shephard, Ellen Park, Varric Tethras, Mordin Solus, BLU Medic, El Santo, and Stacker Pentecost. Currently 'should be retired but I never get around to it' is Ray Stantz. Past pups have included Sergeant Harry Wells (Dog Soldiers), Quinn Abercromby (Reign of Fire), Hektor of Troy, Gimli son of Gloin, Belar the bear-god of the Alorn peoples, a brief attempt at Hua Mulan, Vergil the Huragok (Halo 3 ODST) rather a number of others, and Sgt. Detritus of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, my very first pup. At mixed_muses and other places I've also periodically played Roger Maxson, founder of the Brotherhood of Steel in the Fallout universe, and several other Fallout pups.

My Availability: I'm on during the day American Eastern time, but I'm at work and cannot always tag quickly or in depth, nor can I use AIM at all. I'm on nights after about 6:30 PM most nights, but on Mondays and Thursdays tend not to be available from 9 PM to 11 or so PM.

Miscellany: Up for a lot, but NC-17 material has only really come up for three of my pups in, like, ever, and all three times was pretty much a straightaway fade to black. I'm fine with the prospect but unless everybody involved is really enthusiastic about writing the material, I'd sooner fade.

Bonus: I'm pretty sure Batya mentioned Milliways enough around me that I thought it sounded interesting and asked for Detritus- this was back before we had an app process. I asked for Ray a while after because I wanted a pup who was a little more socially recognizable and a little less specialized/severely fannish.

AIM handle/best means of contact shoroko1; sometimes I'm kind of quiet/distracted on AIM, but I can also be reached by PM or by email at shoroko[at]sbcglobal[dot]net

your pups Elle ([personal profile] ellectrical), Asami Sato ([personal profile] mix_it_up), Katara ([personal profile] haventlosthope), Leslie Knope ([personal profile] friendswaffleswork), Manny Calavera ([personal profile] thisgrimfandango), Marceline the Vampire Queen ([personal profile] notsweetenough), and Hiccup ([personal profile] first_to_ride)

availability I'm usually volunteering during the day EST, as well as jobhunting outside that, so I can be kind of slow, but my best times are evening-nights EST on weekdays, with more time on weekends.

thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany I'm pretty open to whatever, though I'll ftb on anything sexually explicit just because I don't find it very interesting to write. I am sorry for when I'm slow (mostly I can be busy and/or exhausted 100% of the time right now), but I'll generally keep threading for as long as the other mun wants, or initiate a wrap when I think it makes sense.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT yesssssssssssssss

bonus I came into the game in May 2005, so since then I've graduated from high school, college, and law school. w00000000000t. Let's see if we can add obtaining gainful employment to the list.

name: Sweeney

journal: this'n

best means of contact: Honestly, probably email these days, which is this journal name at gmail. I pop on AIM with regularity, but I'm not always up for lengthy conversation (and most nights I'm trying to do reading for class).

characters: The two I can manage to play with pretty nearly anyone these days are Dream of the Endless ([personal profile] the_shaper) and Boyd Crowder ([personal profile] fireinthehole). I have others (Dale Cooper ([personal profile] tibetanmethod) and Kaylee Frye ([personal profile] gonna_live) are probably the easiest two) who are mostly request-only these days, and a few that could stand to find good homes with other folks. Lately I've tried my hand in sandboxes at Alec Campion from Ellen Kushner's Riverside books; while I doubt I'll app him, you never know.

availability: Ha. Ha ha. I just started a Ph.D. program in the humanities at a Region 1 school. I am best at one-off threads scheduled in advance that play out over several days -- nothing time-sensitive. (See also why my last few Dream EPs have been one night only, no slowtimes.)

miscellany: I have to know you pretty well OOC to do anything involving explicit material, and am generally a big fan of FTB. Also, my characters are jerks! I try really hard not to be a jerk. If they are rude in a thread, it is not personal. :D

let's thread: If you're down with all the caveats I listed above and are cool with the fact that school always has to come first for me.

bonus points: My Milliversary was nine years ago; [personal profile] gramarye1971 mentioned it on her flist, and I apped Roland Deschain since she'd already nabbed Merriman Lyon. I literally would not be where I am today without the game: I graduated from college, moved cross-country (where [personal profile] silveraspen kindly gave me the use of her couch until I got on my feet), moved again to start and finish a MA, and now am starting a Ph.D. in yet another state. Game helped me learn not to suffer fools and foolish behavior from people who want to cramp my style (or the styles of others). Most of the traveling I've done in the last nine years has been to see Milliways people, all over the country. It's a pretty great thing. <3

Your Name: Aura

Your Mun Journal: I guess it'd be [personal profile] musesbyaura but I never post there.

AIM handle/best means of contact: auradagamer for AIM but I'm on gmail almost all the time now, too, with auralie at gmail dot com

Your Pups: Mia Malfoy (née Ausa), Lucas (who is this guy!), and Lohengrin (The Knight)

My Availability: My rule of thumb is if you see me signed in, I'm available. More specifically, I'm usually on from afternoons to nights Central Time from Monday-Thursday. Friday and Saturday are wild cards and then, generally speaking, I'm on all day Sunday.

Miscellany: I tend to be flaky on when I think a thread is over and won't say anything if something looks like a good wrap to me and/or I end up braindead. If this happens, please don't think I'm ignoring you! If you'd like to continue, please feel free to drop me a line.

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: Yes to both please! Mia hasn't been as loud lately but I'll hear out requests for her. Lucas has his own stuff going on and Lohengrin will be around soon-ish.

Bonus Points: Saph introduced me to Milliways while we were in college and I joined in 2006. Since then, I've left school, gone through two jobs, got an apartment, went to culinary school, got the job I'm at now, and moved into a house.

Rae "Sunshine" Seddon ([personal profile] sunbaked_baker) from Robin McKinley's Sunshine
Zelgadiss Greywords ([personal profile] chime_ra_tilt) from the Slayers anime and light novels

Availability: Most evenings, CST, but also occasionally during the afternoons, depending on the day and how much RL stuff demands my attention.

Thread preferences/comfort zones/etc.: I like just about all types of interactions for my pups. Conflicting worldviews? Arguments? Flirting? Deep conversations? Violence? All for it. I prefer to fade to black on sex scenes. Mun to mun communication is a delight when concocting plans and mutually flailing at each other.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: BRING IT! <3333333333333333

Bonus: NINE EFFING YEARS AND ONE MONTH AGO. July 1st, 2004. I had graduated high school and was just 17 when I found a post on SamVimes' LJ about this cool new thing. I clicked, and read. And read. And read. And refreshed the page. And read more. And got in trouble for staying on the computer all the time. And then two weeks later, on July 16th, I brought in a snarky white cat-looking creature with a grudge against the entirety of creation, and never looked back.

Since then, I've attained my Bachelor's Degree in English and History (writing my senior thesis on the theme of evil/powerful women and knitting in western literature >_>), gotten my Masters Degree in Library Science specializing in rare books and manuscripts, gotten a job in my field that allows me to think of myself as "gainfully employed," and have bought my first house. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have found Milliways. I love its people and its community spirit, its geekery and its brilliance. Nine more years! <3

I discovered Milliways from an old player who disappeared when we made the move to Dreamwidth. As to milestones, since I've been playing, my daughter has gone through grade school, has started middle school and today is her first school dance. WTF.

Name: John

Mun Journal: I have one but I don't really use it anymore.

Contact: Best way is through the DW inbox, really--you can email me but that goes to my email anyway and it keeps things organized.

Email: camacammal@gmail.com

(It redirects to a non-fandom one and I will probably reply from there. But that has my real name in it so I won't post it in public.)

Character: Karkat Vantas. I've had others over the years (many others, over 9 years) but I wiped the slate right around the time the game moved and Karkat is it right now.

Availability: GOOD QUESTION. I have cut way back on my Milliways participation, ultimately dropping the radar entirely for the last four months. But that's happened before.

If I am threading, I am around. If you want a thread and I don't seem to be around, you can email me and we'll talk about it?

Threading preferences: Slowtime is good, short one-night threads are also good. Not every interaction has to be a monster, and I'd rather characters get to know each other over several shorter threads over a relatively short period of time than a few long, intense conversations spaced out over a year.

Karkat is 15 and an alien so I don't think we need to worry about NSFW issues.
bjornwilde: (01-Val)

[personal profile] bjornwilde 2013-08-22 03:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I like your notes on threading there. I tend to feel I'm letting people down with short threads but they can be just as important as the long monster threads.

Also, since I have your preverbal ear, do you mind if I make my own t-minus icon for a pup or do you prefer to do it? And are Greek characters out of canon for the device? Questions are for Hank McCoy. Oh, and I seem to remember you making one for Val once, a bouncing Möbius strip? Could you point me to it if you still have it?

[personal profile] bcgphoenix 2013-08-22 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Phoenix

Journal: This one right here!

AIM handle/best means of contact: By and large, email's the best way to go (inkblotted [at] gmail); I try to keep M'ways stuff off Twitter due to family members following me, and I'm not on AIM enough to justify posting my SN. You can also send me a PM over Dreamwidth, but I'm pretty bad at checking those.

Pups: Felix Gaeta ([personal profile] mr_gaeta, Battlestar Galactica), Bolin ([personal profile] a_bolin_stone, Avatar: The Legend of Korra), Olivia Dunham ([personal profile] flip_the_lights, Fringe), The Trickster ([personal profile] changeinasnap, Supernatural)

Availability: Sometimes I can tag during the day, but not with any kind of reliability. If I'm going to be around that night, I'll usually start tagging between 10 and 10:30 PM ET -- factors ranging from sleep dep to roller derby can keep my schedule kind of erratic, but I do my best! Usually I have to log off by 11:30 PM so I'm not a zombie the next morning. I'm getting old. :(

Miscellany: I keep my NC-17 exploits private, and, like Sweeney, I have to know you pretty well OOC before threading anything of that sort -- so, uh, general rule of thumb is FTB on that kind of thread! Suicide is also a touchy topic for me, so I prefer lots of warning and/or OOC communication if a thread starts veering that way. Otherwise, we're good!

Also, I freely admit I'm a slow tagger, and that gets even worse with certain pups (namely Olivia and the Trickster, who don't tend to be as loud or as active as Gaeta and Bolin). If you're getting frustrated with my pace, please please please give me a nudge, and I'll bump that thread to the top of my tagging queue from then on out. I'm also okay if you're like, "Dude, it's been a month, can we just fade this already?" No hard feelings. <3

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: If all of the above sounds okay to you, HELLS YES. >:D

Bonus Round: I posted my first character -- Wash from Firefly -- into the bar on December 20, 2004. Major milestones since then have included: graduated college, got my MLIS, moved to Denver (which wouldn't have been possible without the amazing friends I made here), moved back east after finally getting hired by an actualfax library, bought a condo, and have actually lived in/been employed at the same place for almost five years. :O

I do still have Tucker Foley ([personal profile] fryertuck), the Revenant ([personal profile] justiceoverlaw), and the Giant Purple Snorklewacker ([personal profile] anxietycloset) in my roster (as well as several other Danny Phantom pups whom I adopted in case of emergencies and if anyone else wants to really adopt them, oy) but they are all currently defunct. I might bring the Snorklewacker back in if anyone wants crack or a plot catalyst, though.

My availability: I'm on US Eastern time, usually awake until 1 or 2 am (unless I crash at 9 or something, it's been known to happen), and pretty much always available-ish. Sometimes I will be slow due to being at work, sometimes I will type slowly due to tiny touchscreen keyboard, but I will make the effort.

My miscellany: Enzo is compulsively helpful. You have been warned. He is also on Security as well as an infirmary assistant now.

I do not assume threads are done unless we have actually said so or they're at a really obvious fade/wrap point. If you wish to fade/wrap, please tell me; otherwise, I leave tabs open, and then Firefox gets unhappy. If it's my tag, by all means remind me.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: Heck yes!

Name: Batty

Mun journal: [personal profile] thebattycakes

Pups: Bill Pardy [personal profile] wheelsy_sheriff, Hellboy [personal profile] bprd_agent_red, Logan [personal profile] adamantiumloner, Charlie Kenton [personal profile] out_on_the_mat, Puss in Boots [personal profile] cat_wth_panache, Art Mullen [personal profile] kentucky_lawman, Pleakley [personal profile] cus_im_pretty, The Tick [personal profile] wild_blueyonder.

AIM handle/best means of contact: I am on AIM almost 0% of the time these days. The best way to reach me is PM on my journal or any of my pups, or even better, by email because it buzzes my phone and I ALWAYS have my phone *G* My email is millibatty [at] gmail dot com.

You can also get me on Twitter which is @batty_tweets. If you need me on AIM for communication / coordination needs just lemme know and I'll hop on as adamantiumbat, but weekend and evening hours only on that. The others you can reach me whenevs.

Availability: Tags mostly happen for me during the day (*cough*atwork*cough*). I'm on MST so 8-5 in that time zone, but evening tagging can happen, and weekends as well. Slows are pretty much a must, though, as I can be sporadic depending on what lands on my desk, but I try to tag as often as I can and not let threads drop.

Thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany: I am good for whatever really. Random encounters, crazy, crack, SRS BIDNESS, plots, etc. I'm happy to thread with everyone and anyone, so feel free to tag any of my (rare) EP's with whoever you like. And, if you want any of mine to meet yours just lemme know and I'll be on the lookout for their next EP to tag into.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: LET'S! Seriously, I am game for anything and I'm trying to get more active again. That said, a couple of notes:

Bill - Bill can/will be around and open for threads, but has some OOM stuff coming up so can't get involved in any major plots around the bar.

Logan - Logan is set to some nebulous floaty Astonishing X-men time frame that is not now or really defined. 1. because he's Logan 2. because I am not current on comic canon AT ALL. BUT! If you need/want him for anything just lemme know and I'm sure we can work something out. If you can point me towards the tradeback for an arc I will be happy to read up and have him participate. Just know that all those majors things that have happened recently probably haven't happened to him yet, but that doesn't make it a problem for him to run into anyone. He's Logan, space/time BS is nothing new and he'll just roll with it. That also goes for anyone from a different universe as well. He's fine to meet them (though there's always never a guarantee as to how well he'll get along with them *G*).

Art Mullen: Is still from season 2 of Justified.

Still the message here is I'm open for any and all threads with the reminder that I can be a slow turtle, but I try!

Bonus: I was invited to Milliways by a couple of players who are no longer around the game. 2006 was the year, and since then I've earned my Bachelors degree, survived kidney stones, bought a house, been to Virginia, Seattle, and Kentucky to meet friends I've made here in game, lost countless hours of sleep threading, canon watching/reading and chatting, and possibly booked my handbasket to hell thanks to all the evil plots and things y'all have influenced me into doing. :D

minkhollow: (end *all* the worlds?)

[personal profile] minkhollow 2013-08-22 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Jill

Mun journal: [personal profile] minkhollow

Contact: minkhollow at gmail; minkhollow42 on the Twitter; thehermitof on AIM; if all else fails wing me a DW PM. (This is not necessarily in order of preference.)

Characters: Cata and Sam (Villains By Necessity), Claudia Donovan (Warehouse 13), Apollo (Percy Jackson 'verse), Imp y Celyn (Discworld), Regulus Black (Harry Potter), Red Riding Hood/Ruby Lucas (Once Upon a Time)
Past characters include Imp (again, as technically I rebooted him post-move), Jane Lane (Daria), Angel Dumott Schunard (Rent), Carl Arbogast (Sneakers), and Moist (Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog). I am sure this is nothing close to comprehensive.

Availability: US Eastern time, whenever I haul myself out of bed until whenever I go to bed (usually 2 AM ish, and even if I'm not for sleep then my threadbrain tends to crap out then). Occasional pauses for errands and Quinn Time apply.

Thread miscellany: I'm another fade-to-black person here. As for thread length, I have a tendency of stopping when I have no more responses on a thread and assuming it's cool. If you need confirmation otherwise, feel free to prod me! (Apollo in particular is bad about this; I have no control over how long the boy sticks around for a given thread. He's a god, so I'm far from surprised.)

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: HELLS YES.

Bonus round: I've been here from day one (young whippersnappers); Nny and I were in the same RP and I had her friended from there, so I saw the initial drunk post about Milliways. Figured, hey, that's a good way to pass the summer before I start college, joined up, and wondered what would happen when we all went back to school in the fall. (What happened: We were still hitting around 100 posts a day and we never looked back.)
Milestones since I joined: I both started and finished college, found myself in a relationship (seven years and counting), and moved out of my parents'. I literally would not be where I am right now if not for Milliways.

Name: Aspen

Mun journal: This one, [personal profile] silveraspen.

AIM handle/best means of contact: AIM is Aspenx3, and my status message accurately reflects my availability at any point when I'm on (evenings/weekends only). I also answer email at least once per day (well, I try to!), and that's silveraspen/gmail. DW messages for all my character accounts and for my main journal will forward straight to my email, too.

Characters: Several. Moiraine Sedai, Captain Jack Sparrow, Sam Winchester, Bucky Barnes, Louis Hoshi, Laura Roslin, Gabriel Tam, Kim Ford, Nick Sayre. Of those, Moiraine and Jack have been with me since 2004; the rest came about along the way. Most active right now are probably Bucky, Louis, Sam, and Moiraine; Jack is alwawys available by request, and the others are as well. The biggest limiting factor for me is time, honestly.

Availability: See above about the biggest limiting factor. Threading during the day (Mountain Time) is right out during the week and haphazard on weekends. Evenings I am more likely to be around, especially if we have a planned thread, but I am still getting back in the swing of things after several months of academic and career madness. I am more than amenable to slowtime or to short real-time threads, either/both.

Thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add: I am up for trying pretty much anything that makes reasonable contextual sense (or is designed not to, let's face it, sometimes the funny is wonderful), but I'm not really an NC-17 writer. Beyond that, go for it.

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: Absolutely! Catch me when I'm around or drop me a line saying what you want to do, and if at all possible I will. If I lose a thread in slowtime, please feel free to poke me or request a fade; I try to track them all, but no one's perfect. (I have I think 3 in slowtime right now - all of them will be tagged back either Friday night or Saturday morning.)

Bonus Points: I found Milliways in 2004 due to direct recruitment by [profile] vivien529. It's been an amazing experience. It's also seen me through a career sea change and the completion of 2 graduate degrees, which is part of why my availability is historically stretched!

Availability: Whenever I'm feeling motivated and up to it, EST

Miscellany: I'm probably up for most things, especially if it's funny. Not that it's been relevant with any of my pups, but fade-to-black yay!

Boring health crap often leads me to thread slower-than-molasses and occasionally lose track of things. I'm totally cool with fading at the end of the evening or continuing the thread for months. Feel free to poke me if needed :)

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: Yes let's!

Bonus: I first heard about Milliways from RL friends who are current/former players, and apped Lady Mary last April. (So compared to everyone whose been here years I feel like such a newb.) In that time I got a new job, got in a giant car accident, purchased my first ever new car, gained two step-parents and three step-siblings... dang.

I still like the idea of Carol and Jess taking down a HYDRA base with help from Milli-folks. Work, why must you take all my spoons!

Also, the current OOM might end up having a spot for Carol if the ninjas get too much for Jess and Logan. You interested? I don't know if it will so no guarantees.

- your name: Gen

- your mun journal: [personal profile] genarti

- your AIM handle/best means of contact: Zebosity, which is often the best way to get in touch with me in real time. If I've got an EP or a bunch of active threads, I try to be visibly on, for chatting and thread coordination. You can also reach me by DW message and/or by email (email's in my mun journal profile.)

- your pups: River Tam ([personal profile] river_meimei), Regan Tam ([personal profile] regan_tam), Clare ([personal profile] demisemidemon), Trowa Barton ([personal profile] 3nanashi), Thor Odinson ([personal profile] mjolnir_retriever), and Enjolras ([personal profile] pro_patria_mortuus).

- your availability: Evenings US Eastern time, usually after 10 pm, but I can often arrange to be on earlier if we have something pre-planned. Weekends, again I'm usually on in the evenings, but I have more freedom to do daytime RP too. (However, please note that work is gonna be super-busy for the next few weeks, and that will cut down on my RP energy in the short term.)

- your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add: I'm good with short real-time threads or with slowtimes that last a couple of days, but I tend to flake out on super-slowtimes. I'm up for it sometimes -- as witness some of Enjolras's current threads, all of which I'm loving -- but not reliably, I'm afraid. This is particularly true of ones that are just a tag or two per day of characters chatting and getting to know each other; I'd often rather wrap that up and have them meet again later, instead of one very long conversation and then not meeting for months. In general, the more we can get done within a day or two of the EP, the better it usually works! Sadly, I don't usually have the time for long-running plot these days, although I have made pre-planned exceptions.

I'm totally fine with character conflict, although I usually prefer to either know the other mun well or to be chatting in the background so I know that everybody's still having IC fun. (If my character is being a jerk to yours, I promise you, I am having fun and I don't dislike your character and I hope that you're having fun too. Some of mine are, in fact, jerks. I try to signal my awareness of that narratively too.) Hmm, what else. I don't do NC-17, as a rule, although I doubt that'll come up. Thor will be on Security once I get off my duff and get that ICly officially accepted, and he is in general totally available to be a cheerful hammer-wielding brick wall at supernatural threats, and/or a translator in OOM situations if he knows (and doesn't mistrust) at least one person involved.

- LET’S THREAD/PROFIT.: YES ABSOLUTELY uh within the bounds of availability. But hi everyone! Hi! I always want my characters to MEET EVERYONE AND TALK WITH EVERYONE, even if logistics limit that to a smaller subset of everyone.

Bonus points: Back in 2004, I had Selkie on my friendslist because she'd been quoted on Metaquotes as saying something that amused me -- I don't even remember what. Anyway, she started talking about this game some friends of hers had just started up, and I was out of college and bored, and had been lurking on an LJ RP that some other friends were involved in and thought the format sounded fun. So I wandered over, and a week or so later I made a journal for Will Stanton.

Nine years later (oh lordy) I've changed jobs three times, changed states once and apartments several times, and hit a couple of milestone birthdays; I've had short stories published, and I thank Milliways and Milliways friends for a lot of confidence and growth in writing skills; one of my housemates and most of my closest friends came to me courtesy of Milliways. It's given me a whole lot.

Availability: When I'm on and threading, I'm generally in AIM. This tends to be from about 18:00 UK time (BST at the moment, GMT in winter) until midnight (or later) in the same time zone on weeknights. Weekends can be all over the shop.
Miscellany: I'm good for almost anything. Anything PG-13, sure. More violence, probably sure. Romantic stuff: flirting, sure. Sexual stuff, I generally would prefer a ftb though.
Let's Thread: Heck yes. Some of mine might not necessarily like some of yours, this does not mean I am not enjoying the thread and laughing my head off.
Bonus: I found milliways via tvTropes, and specifically, the link to Cam's Gordon Freeman in the Half life section. I lurked for a while (this was right around the time of the move to dreamwidth, so I waited until after that) and then joined. Since I joined last year, I have graduated from university and started gainful employment as a software engineer!

AIM handle/best means of contact: My AIM username is bbqplatypus_318. The best way of contacting me is either through that, or by PMing one of my pups' accounts.

My pups: The Waco Kid ([personal profile] waco_jim), Borgel ([personal profile] fromtheoldcountry), Leela of the Sevateem ([personal profile] janisthorn), Kane ([personal profile] closesecond), Caius Cosades ([personal profile] oldsugartooth), and the Nerevarine ([personal profile] moonandstar). Over in the sandbox I have an account based on the Horse_ebooks Twitter spambot ([personal profile] happensomuch).

Availability: Pretty decent, considering I'm a full-time law clerk / part-time law student. I should be available most evenings, though probably not Monday or Wednesday.

Thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany: I'm up for lots of different kinds of stuff provided it makes sense. I don't usually do NC-17 and it's not my biggest strength, but I have done it on occasion and don't have any objection to it. I am ALWAYS good for slowtimes and very understanding of people's schedules - I can keep a thread going for months if I need to.

LET'S THREAD/PROFIT: HELL YES. THREADS = LOVE.

Bonus question: I found out about Milliways through TV Tropes, via their Fanfic Recommendations for the Half-Life series. This led me to Cam's Gordon Freeman journal, which in turn led me to Milliways, where I lurked silently for a couple of weeks, waited for the end of my first semester of law school, and apped the Waco Kid.

Haven't been here all that long - still in law school (though I thought very seriously about quitting). I did get to study abroad in London, which was cool.

I'm looking into volunteering at my local library so that will end up filling up some of my days. Basically I'm around and flexible.

- your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add:
I love not overly planning but instead what happens when there's a general idea and seeing what happens. I've found a lot of the best threads start out that way and then they take unexpected shapes. There are few kinds of threads that I don't enjoy given the right combination of pups. Talk to me and let's see what might work.

- LET’S THREAD/PROFIT.: Yes please.

Bonus Question: Danii, a former player and someone I went to college with introduced me to the game seven or eight years ago. I've now met many more Millimuns, gotten other people involved in the game and gone from one pup to nine. Since starting playing in Milliways, I didn't finish a master's thesis but went on to get an MLIS and moved to Michigan and then back from to the East Coast.

Your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add: I'm not going to be terribly comfortable with anything that would require showing an ID to get into a movie. I'm not great about keeping up with slowtimes ninety percent of the time, especially if it's not a Thread Of Great Significance.

And with regard to the TARDIS . . . if you are doing anything with a Doctor before Nine, you're going to know more that I do, because I haven't seen any of the Classic stuff. (I'd love to, and if I had an actual way to skip through time, I'd be on that, but my schedule just hasn't allowed for it yet.) And anyone dealing with the TARDIS who wants her to reference things is always welcome to ask -- I will do my level best to have her work the topic into the conversation.

- LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: Yes, do let's.

And I found Milliways when I stumbled into being the figurehead captain of a team of Browncoats from the bar, over on the Serenity movie official site. I'm fairly sure the infinite improbability drive was involved.

Your name: TL
Your mun journal: I don't use it.
Your AIM handle/best means of contact: AIM is TLvop; I try to be in crackchat whenever I have a new EP, but I'm pretty stunningly introverted to be honest so I disappear a lot. I get offline messages on AIM (or should); or PM this journal. I can do gchat if needed!

Characters currently playable:
Clint Barton (hasthehighground) is the easiest for me right now, then
Darcy Lewis (tased-lightning),
Legolas (findsthesun), and
Quatre Winner (04-after)

Roughly in that order, with Quatre kind of hard to summon up/sustain depending on the situation in question.

John Connor and Rue are on hiatus until I rewatch their canons. Which... hopefully this weekend, to start for Rue? I think it's free.

Your availability: I'm Arizona time! (currently Pacific, sometimes Mountain, wat iz daylite savins), with a very strange sleep schedule. You're most likely to find me active between 6pm-3am, though you might get random tags at other times. If you want to schedule anything, just shoot me a PM/offline message, and I'm willing to set things up!

Your thread preferences/comfort zones/miscellany you’d like to add:
I am not a plot-y person. Sometimes I engage in plot! But mostly I do not.
I have PTSD and so while I don't mind threading it (Clint is so chill with people having anxiety attacks!), it can get pretty sensitive for me so being on AIM or gchat is great.
I'm also terrible at writing flirting, so I avoid that, except with friends who've known me waaay too long to be bothered by my awkward flail hands. If your character is a flirt, that's fine! Just... we should really be talking on AIM/gchat, as I can panic really fast.

Also, I love threading with new folks! :) (Short intro threads instead of long threads that take months are also my preference!)

Re: slowtimes. I am a giant believer in the HANDWAVE HANDWAVE principle of slowtime wrapping, haha, but communication is great. I am best at either slowtimes that take place over a couple days, or OOMs where the pressure is really really low. I am a short-threader! If our thread gets over 25 tags, there's a strong chance I'll need to wrap soon. Not always! But a lot of the time.
On the opposite side, I try to get threads over 25 tags and if I just drop it randomly I've probably had a demi-major life event, like moving (or. Or sometimes just getting a really bad migraine. But I feel that counts?) or I've just forgotten. Please feel free to ping me if I ever just drop without warning; my memory is VERY bad. I'd appreciate it if you didn't do so in public (like, on the thread is fine, in the backroom would freak me out).

LET’S THREAD/PROFIT: yes yes yes this. Also legit, anyone can second that I'm really pretty nice, just a total ditz. (I think? I try! I like people.) So feel free to get into contact :).

Bonus: I started reading Milliways 2 weeks after the beginning, but I did not join until I was 16! And now I'm 24! :O. Milliways has seen me finish my undergraduate career (FINALLY), and been one of the biggest source of emotional support during my health dissolving thing. So <333. I love your faces. Also, friends! FRIENDS EVERYWHERE. I love it.

(and my RL friends are getting to know characters.
Me: OH MY GOODNESS YOU CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED WHEN ENJOLRAS AND NATASHA MET
My best friend, who does not internet: !!
Best friend: they would be the best philosophy friends
me: you understaaaaand.

It's pretty great, if I say so myself. And I do.)

Some day I mean to throw Andrea at Clint. My comic canon Jess as well but I think Jess should do the "Clint Barton is an ass" thread with Natasha first for proper awkward. = )
