Sure, but when you have already given me a time frame, and haven't let me know that you've changed it, how should I know I need to ask about it?

I honestly have no problem whatsoever sitting on a plot, or even on written fic or fics, until everybody participating in a plot is ready. It kind of stands to reason that those who want it done with sooner should say so. At least to me.

I'm not a poker, either. I can poke about random stuff that may interest somebody, or about an idea I may have, to hear somebody's opinion/input on it before I consider putting it into action. But poking about RP, no, I don't do that. Ever.
