*yeets in reply* James didn't even try to say his real name, he just straight up picked a fake one lol so he missed the whole "oh i can't say my name??" bit ahsdlkfgjsdhlk

everyone else: ?!? I can't say my name and I'm not in my body ?!
james and kaya: hey stranger how are u this fine day

Meanwhile Queenie is mostly shooketh to see Anna. Or someone who looks like Anna.

@Carina I may or may not tempt you once I come up with a Plot. >>

@ThePatchworkPilgrims, good luck with the election & that SB post!

Also James is thriving right now. It'll be hilarious later on when someone points out that they can't say their real names and he'll be vaguely shocked because he didn't try giving his real name earlier.

James is living his best fake life pretending to be a normal dude without truckloads of angst

awww james is just happy to have young bones and something new in his life so pure until ANGST

and also so far this has been literally a walk in a park lol

welp since james and kaya are separated from the group don't mind us being awkward ducklings with the posts lol

also, I was wondering about what repeating characters think when they see other repeating characters in roleplays. is it common for repeat characters to remember past roleplays?

i’ve had my characters remember past roleplays but i know not everyone does that with their characters! or some people just use new characters every time which is an easy way to avoid the complications of that

i know when james sees people he’s seen in other rps is just like “oh. u again” unless they r friends then its “oh u again. hi”

ALSO MY PLAN IS THAt once they get walkin down the street a bit, they can run into the others!!

ohhhh then i totally see the appeal of this concept for a roleplay since the characters may know each other but, ya know, don't know lol except me bc im roleplay realm n00b

hahaha oh james being so stoic~ although...... im pretty sure if he and kaya ever meet elsewhere, she's just gonna keep calling him jacob lol. which, again, meta b/c JACOB IS JAMES 1.0

I REPLIED AGAIN HUHU

maybe in your post they can uhhh get to the exit of the park and head down a street so we move tings forward?

AND LOLLLLLLLL saya can keep calling him Jacob. James has so many aliases he just. will reply to almost anythingnothing

yessss will do can't wait for the two of them to be all pikachu face when they realize they can't say their real identities

ya know, repeating characters remembering everything is a wild concept. like, these poor characters are just mindin their business then WHAM. author places them in a roleplay. then the roleplay dies or ends, and then WHAM. another one. and then another and then another... poor character just wants to be alone in their universe drinkin tea and tending to their fictional garden

We apologise for posting only now. Had some real life stuff that got in the way on Friday and Saturday ~M

That's alright, @ThePatchworkPilgrims! Life happens, and I know I haven't been all that on top of roleplays lately myself.

I just have a quick request. I saw that you had reactions from both Lacey & Steph in your post, but that's not really something we do in roleplays on YWS. Some roleplays may allow it, but it's not something I allow in my roleplays because you never really know how someone is going to have their character react to what is being said.

I actually mentioned it in the rules post of the roleplay:

4. Please don't write for anyone else's characters. It's hard to predict what someone else might have their characters do, and it takes away some of the fun for the other writers.

I'm really sorry to ask this, but could you go back and edit your post so it only really has what Milo is doing? @Elinor and I can write our characters' reactions after you edit.
