I am not amused, no lie.

So, I thought this week was going to be better than last. Wrong. Jesus fucking Christ, people, have you all lost your fucking minds? There are things I want to say, but I can't out of interest of not hurting feelings, but my lord do I want to tell you all something.

First an for most? Fucking stop it. Step back and look at yourselves in the damn mirror and ask yourself what you are doing.

You, seriously. Have you stopped thinking about yourself long enough to realize that you are not the only person in this situation that has feelings that can and will be hurt? You've never, NEVER expressed much interest in this plot. Oh, yeah, I know you'd argue the counter-point, but let me put it to you this way. The only things you've added to the plot have been small, off to the side, and rare. You've never posted unless prompted many times over, and you've never gone out of your way to actually make people feel that you were interested beyond saying "OH I love this idea." That doesn't count as interested. You have made people feel boxed in and under-appreciated, and above all- you have made this time and time again about you. This is not your sandbox, these plots were decided on by the people that were most active in the RP, and it is not and never will be their responsibility to make sure you are on top of things.

You were given the option to follow the post or not. It clearly states that it does not affect everyone unless you want to it affect you. This is not worth the drama you've brought to the table. This isn't a problem with the other poster, this is a problem with you. Stop it. Stop being a selfish child.

And you? Stop hiding behind the wall. If things bother you, or upset you tell people before they become a problem. Yes, I know you are aware of your folly, and I know that you didn't mean to hurt feelings, and that your are upset right now. But if you had stepped up and told people how you felt before now? This wouldn't be the issue that it is. Sometimes you have to realize that you just can't RP with someone, be it personality quirks or simple disagreement on style.

You need to learn that while conflict is tiresome, and bad sometimes? It is a part of communication and cannot be avoided all the time. This could have been avoided in part if you'd only spoken up.

However, I've told you this time and time again, and I will not beat the dead horse.


All told? You both need to step back and realize that with high emotions neither of you are going to accomplish anything. And also? You both had bad days, I get it, but don't take your bad days out on each other over a trivial matter that should not, and never will be that big a deal.

When RPing becomes a big enough issue that it 'wrecks' your whole day? You need to stop, step back, and re-evaluate your life. You need to re-establish your IC/OOC lines, and you need to communicate. However? Communication goes both ways, so before you start screaming, stop and think about how well you've communicated with the person you are upset with, verses how well they've communicated with you. Stop focusing on 'them' and realize that conflict requires you to look inward and acknowledge your own faults before you can communicate precisely what it bothering you.

That being said?

Enough of it. Cut the passive-aggressive sniping out. It does not make you look like the adults you claim to be.

No, it wasn't your responsibility to tell me about it this time, that is true.

Well, if I wanted to answer that question in detail, I wouldn't be putting her on hiatus, would I? But, briefly, why would 'get 'fixed'' and 'not learn about it' be the only options, while the most logicals ones, from where I'm standing, lie in between those two?

Because I want to know how she'd even be aware of the occurrence. That is the issue Kiki. You want to worry about God-modding, I want to worry about OOC knowledge being used IC. What happens that would give her a remote inkling that this happened? If Peter and Paul are not affected, then who does she know that is? How is she clued in? Are you assuming Heru would say something? What happens that makes her aware this has happened? Is it a tug, that she automatically for no reason knows what it means? Because all I see are chances for you to expand her stroyline.

How about, oh, partially affected? The spell tries to youink Hathor out, but does not succeed - and when its immediate effect passes, leaves Ellen feeling ill - and Hathor possibly aware that something about the spell is familiar? I see that option as completely IC and within the parameters of what the post implied.

Fine so she's partially affected, then what? How can she know Set's used this spell? It is also still optional for you to use that. No one said you had to, and it has nothing to do with being IC. That is a MUN's choice. It isn't as if she's a terrible fighter, and it would be IC for her to get punched if someone tried to hit her. This is a spell that Set very well could have fucked up, he has a history of being terrible at spells.

*sighs* never mind, the point is moot.
