open mingle post;

Who: Everyone on the waystation!
Broadcast: n/a
Action: open to everyone to tag into
When: October 11, 2014

[It sure is a lovely day actually pretty much indeterminate time period out here in the vast darkness of space, isn't it? I bet everyone's enjoying themselves, getting a chance to get off their dinky little ship and stretch their legs. Even on this shitty, empty little waystation.

Where are you, droot flooters? What are you up to? Stay out of trouble, now.]


[ooc: hi everyone! I thought I'd give this a try and see how the game liked it. What we have here is a mass mingle post. Rather than everyone making a bunch of different posts about landing on the station, everyone is invited to post a parent comment with their character out and about, doing something. Everyone else is invited to look at who's posted, tag them, post their own parent comments, thread jack, tag around and generally have a grand old time! It should hopefully be a nice low-pressure way to do some action tagging with each other.

Please tag in if you feel so inclined! Don't be shy to tag around!]

[Watch Nunnally interpret that in completely the wrong way, but...]

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be remembered for that.

[ It's the thought that counts, either way! ]

You're very kind to say so. And very optimistic.
blindoptimism: (thinking ♛)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-16 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm, not optimistic. I just have a feeling that you mean what you say. And with what you said earlier, I have no doubt that it will manifest into something wonderful.

[ Wouldn't that be nice. ]

You'll cause me to become too stuck-up, let's talk about you instead.

[ YYYYES, subject change. ]

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-16 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[hehe, EMBLICA YOU'RE ADORABLE! Nunnally seems quite pleased that she embarrassed her in a friendly way.]

Very well, I guess we could change the subject. Did you want to ask what I was looking at before you came?

[just gonna geeeently steer the subject before it gets rolling]

[ Nunnally will you still think that when you learn that she's really....really.........really old? ;~; ]

Ah, yes!

[ So helpful, Nunners. ]

I did distract you while you were looking, after all-- you were window shopping, you said?
blindoptimism: (laughing ♛ imagine there's no country)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-16 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[FOREVER ADORABLE, shhh 3:]

It wasn't a distraction. I still have no idea what I want to buy... And more than that, I'm not sure if our ship is pooling our resources. I'll likely need to wait and make a decision tomorrow.

[ For the past 932 years, and probably for many more. ]

There should be other chances like these, too...it would be nice when the time comes where we don't have to choose between food and entertainment.

When you can, what would you like to buy?

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-17 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
Hm, if we could get anything that we wanted? [it's hard to say. she ponders the question for a moment]

Something that reminds me of home, I suppose. Sheets and sheets of origami paper.
amarant: (bellflower)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-17 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that a special kind of paper?

[ She feels so uncultured, haha. ]
blindoptimism: (talking ♛ living for today)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-20 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Well... it doesn't have to be. But certain stores sell paper that is perfectly square and printed with beautiful patterns. One could technically make origami with any kind of paper, but that's the best kind to use.

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-21 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Hm...and how do you do it?

[ She'd try it, definitely. ]
blindoptimism: (Default)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-21 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[she glances around but doesn't seem to find what she's looking for. So she holds up her left hand, palm up and fingers pulled together so that it lies flat.]

There are lots of patterns, if you fold the paper in certain ways-- [she folds her fingers over her palm as best she can to demonstrate the point] and you keep folding it, it will look like something. Like small ships, dogs, birds... those kind of things.

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-21 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, how nice. If we can find some paper for it, I'd like to see you make something.
blindoptimism: (oh my ♛ imagine all the people)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-22 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not very good. My-- [she pauses and looks a little embarrassed] friend Sayako was much better. She's the one who taught me.
amarant: (wormwood)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-22 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
I already know you'll be better than I am, isn't that a start?
blindoptimism: (family ♛)

[personal profile] blindoptimism 2014-10-22 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[hehe, so sweet] Then I'll try to hold my head high and act as a good teacher.
amarant: (wormwood)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-22 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
You'll do fine, I'm sure. If it helps, you can pretend you're doing it alone and I'll try to pick it up from watching.
