I'm going by the assumption that Nova is listed as MIA. I can work with that. Can I get a bit of info on what's happened since. The following would be helpful:
-How many missions have been done since she disappeared (first military incident).
-Are there more Titans.
-Any big threats? (not necessary)
-What's currently happening.
On another note, I realized one of the depressing things about this RP (Of course, Scarlet not being around was a bit hard to work around since our characters played off each other). It didn't feel very "Teen Titan-y". It felt too Justice League. There was no levity, no "LOL" ness to it. Just a lot of seriousness and eager to prove themselves kids. If it hasn't changed, we should look into that. Emphasizing the teen antics.
I think a couple weeks to a month has pass since the military guys came and Nova and Snow left and the only big thing the Titans dealt with was when the city was attacked by Victoria, a power house villain wrecked most of down town Jump City. Two new Titans have joined, Clive and Oliver and we saw the return of Vex...for a moment. Oh and Matt got smote by lightning and was knocked out for a day because I like drama!
Yeah I think I took Athena's character way too serious and since the city was just attacked we can do some Titan down time to explore the teenage "antics" a bit more, would be fun if Matt finally got to press the party button in the tower! Also Matt and Oliver can bring that regular teen feel to the Titans and the others can get caught in it, I'll team up with O and we shell let the boys be boys...as they say.
Awww, SNAP!!! Phoenix is back?!?!?
And, yes Olli and Matt WILL bring the teen...scene...thing...?
I've honestly been trying to make Olli seem like a teenager since he's only 18. Shoot, it wasn't THAT long ago when I was 18. What, 8 years ago? I was in college and working out, partying and occasionally working or studying. I think I can bring some of that to Olli and Christian. And Matt will be a big help with Olli since he's two years younger.
your 18 was a lot better then my 18, I didn't go a "cool" party til I was 23...all my friends got drunk and got into a huge fight with other party goers. NEVER AGAIN PARTIES ARE TOO CRAY!!!! Point of my story is I don't know how to be a cool teen cause I was a responsible boring teen, show me your ways O. 😛
But you have to strive for a bit of childishness. Look at the Teen Titan's themselves. Spontaneous accidents during battle causing the occasional problem between teammates, the video games, the pizza-- Oh god the Pizza. A lot of RP'ers want to have their characters be "flawless". Teen Titan's don't work that way, lol.
Nova represents a sort of "Raven" character. She's serious and prefers to be alone, but can be pulled into fun - which she displays mostly by standing at the wall, ignoring people like the cool kid. She would pull the comic foil part by, for example, lighting Olli's shirt on fire while he tries to be funny. If an enemy attacks her, sometimes, rather then being hit and going flying, it might cause something comical to happen like oil shooting out of the ground and soaking her in it, resulting in a black glob like appearance where she'd throw out a line like "And I'm done" before she lets Athena handle it (or whatever Titan is the focus of that situation).
I'll let you guys do a bit of a down time thing then if it's okay, I'd like to come in with a mission of sorts. No Titan focus, all of them arriving to find that the cause of the incident is Nova (or so it might seem).
Plan:
The Titan's will get an alert that someone is attacking the movie theater in Jump City. When they arrive, the entire place will have smoldering flames over it and seem to have calmed down. After a few seconds of investigating, they'll see Nova standing with her back to them, on top of the theater. Some of the new guys might immediately try to attack her but Athena (since Olli wasn't much in when Nova disappeared) will defuse the situation by explaining who it is. But Athena should still question it -- since it's awfully incriminating. After a few words are shared, Nova will fly off and that will lead to a short downtime then into another hit. That will qualify as the "end of the episode" so to speak as it will have the resolution and possibly Nova rejoining. (trying to keep the second half mostly unknown for now.)
So, that's my idea. Opinions?
While Olli had no interaction with Nova, he did know of her from the whole Boomy incident. He saw her in action and knows that she was/is a Titan. I don't think he'd up and attack her.
Also, Starry, I kinda wanted Athena and Olli to have a sort of heart-to-heart while she was taking him home. Its pretty much so they get to know a little bit more about each other.
I sent starry a couple (literally just 2) ideas about how we do things. I'm not sure how anyone would see them so that's why I proposed the ideas to her first. I also have tried to read a bit of what's happened but honestly, reading things that have nothing to do with me is just a bit boring for me. I know it makes me conceded, lol. Sending them to starry is me trying to adjust myself to being more open, since I tend not to "work well with others" around here. Why was I posting this again? Oh yeah. Boredom. Ahem.. So if Starry likes the ideas maybe we can look into them, if they haven't already been put into play. They weren't when I left so... yeah.
Caught up on the currrent RP. starry, I'll send you some ideas for my next move later today, but right now I need to get some rest. Glad to see it's still going.
Pheo, I still think you're taking more out of it than you should. For every one person you feel doesn't work well, there's two that enjoy your company.
