Yes, let's discuss how Elaine so totally isn't completely infatuated/obsessed with Zai, no, not at all...

Oh dear, Elaine, how you bring up
memories.

I like the idea of the plot being kind of loose. I vote that vampires have risen and taken over the world, and it only seemed empty because it was daytime and the vampires are all sleeping.

Not really xD

If there aren't any posts soon-ish, I'll hop in. I figured I'd keep Zera as a legit background character for now, but that only works if there are characters hopping around in the foreground. =P

Yeah. Waiting for something fun to have my character hop in, too. He's sort of aloof, so he needs a bright personality to be his foil. -nods-

I vote for anything that is confusing and morbid. Like ASoIaF's snow zombies. Or something new. Zombies? Naah. The world has been taken over by aswangs because they ate too many fetuses and the population went, "Wait, what is this--? I'm falling, I'm falling, hello--anyone? where is my button, wasn't I supposed to have a button like in the commercials?"
My SPD senses are tingling.

So. Looking over the cast, I noticed that Zera is the only active PC that either wasn't born on Mars, or wasn't a small child/infant on Mars. Iiiiin that light, be sure to write up some cool NPCs in your posts so Zera won't be the only chronologically appropriate character. =P

^ In Alex's profile I implied that his parents are dead, but I can change that in you want and they can be some NPCs in the background, as they'd be an appropriate age.

I could get my charrie to have a mentor, older man or woman, so that he appears to not be a friendless sociopath? (I re-read his profile and I'm like: Oh my gosh, a lot of people dropped dead and he doesn't seem to care. Should've involved that...)

And, yeah, Ninja. It's weird. o.o I may have to go for it. Maybe. Maybe the one-post-a-day rule should be changed, because that was holding me back a bit. I'm like: Wait. Wait for the perfect moment to jump in. Because you'll have to wait twenty-four hours until you can post again. -to be read in a frumpy Manchester accent for some reason- Yeah...

I'll make the second post. Just pretend the ship has a storage room and that Alec's parents aren't dead. I'm too lazy to fix my profile right now :/

Oh by one post a day I meant one post each so don't worry about that and sorry for the misunderstanding!

I'll throw some NPC's in as well, may even play a second character so we have some age-gap bridging going on :)

But yeah, just go for it guys, there should b some fun to be had from working this plot out ^^

I'll write in some older science colleague persons when post. If there's something creepy or evil then they'll be good cannon fodder too, for some reason the nerds are always the first to go when stuff goes wrong.

Hey Heather. Got room for me to riddle in? I don't want to interrupt the storybook with a character profile if not, so let me know.

Thanks,
