StrawberryZ0mbie xX Magic and Mystery Xx Right right. I can see what you're saying. Being confusing was sort of one of his flaws though. I could try and explain his speech patterns in a more detailed fashion in the character profile. Basically, he has to say most of the things he does out loud, with the different colors differentiating between action, emotional response and speech. It didn't seem that confusing to me when I was writing it sweatdrop but that's probably because, well, I wrote it. Sorry. ((A character being confusing to other characters is a lot different from your post being confusing to other RPers. I'm still going to request you get rid of any symbols from his dialogue unless those symbols are being said aloud. In other words if he's not saying "Bracketcommandbracket bracketactionequalssearchbracket" then you shouldn't be putting those symbols in his actual dialogue. Dialogue should read the way it's actually being said, for the purposes of clarity. No one is going to want to RP with this character if they, as an RPer cannot decipher what he's saying. Regardless of whether my character might be confused or not, I can't be confused or I can't write a post. Does that make sense? ^_^; I mean...it would be like me having Ihsan speak only in Arabic and not including a translation for other RPers to at least understand the sort of tone he's speaking in. You're not really going to be able to reply very well to that, are you? Again, there's a huge difference between me having my character be confused because they would be confused in that situation, and me having my character be confused because I am the one confused. I can't respond to something if I don't understand how it's being said. "[searchmatch=or>to lubricant (WD-40) etc.]" Is he saying "bracket search match equals or greater than to lubricant perenthesis WD -forty etcetera bracket" Is he saying "Searchmatch equals or greater than to lubricant WD forty etcetera." Is he saying "search match equal to or greater than lubricant WD forty etcetera" or is it said more like "search match: lubricant WD forty etcetera." Depending how it would sound aloud, Saeslin would respond with varying degrees of confusion. But I, personally, as an RPer, have no idea how that is being said. So I, personally, as an RPer, am not sure how confused Saeslin should be. I have no idea if I'm explaining this well but it comes down to the fact that I don't know what his dialogue sounds like when said aloud so I don't know how to have Saeslin respond. And you are going to have to write out the how the code would be said instead of writing the actual code, or I can't reply. Sorry for being such a hardass on this but really...........I'm still confused. And I suspect others are going to be as well. Confusing characters is fine. Confusing RPers means people aren't going to be able to RP with you.)) Yeah, I see what you're saying. I'll make sure to make it less confusing. Sorry about that crying

Saeslin.Cathain The priests and the friars
They approach me in dread
For I love you still
My wife, and you're dead...
Saeslin was in his backroom when he heard someone walking around out in the main classroom. Frowning slightly, he pushed his work goggles up to his head and pulled his work gloves off, going to the door and peeking out.
Ah...it was that robot fellow he'd seen around the school. Saeslin had yet to work out if the automaton was truly intelligent or if it was being controlled by someone else. So he was a little hesitant to strike up a conversation. But it was talking. So he supposed at the very least, it understood voice commands and such.
Stepping out of his back room, he pulled the door shut, causing a series of loud whirrs and clicks at the locking mechanism engaged. "Hello. May I help you find something? I believe you mentioned something about lubricant?" The dialogue was a little difficult to understand as it seemed peppered with superfluous words. At any rate, he got the general idea, more or less.
((Thank you ;o; ))I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...

Saeslin blinked, a little surprised by the request. "No, it's quite alright," he said, going to a large cabinet on the other side of the class. "I'm Saeslin Cathain--most of the room functions as my classroom. Pulling open the cabinet, he turned to look at the robot again for a moment. "Is there something in particular you're looking for. I have circulating and hydraulic oil. Do you think that would suffice?"
It was what he use don his creations and they seemed to function alright with it, so he assumed it would work for this fellow as well. Saying of which, Saeslin wondered if this robot was a teacher at the school. It seemed sort of rude to ask, and to be honest, he still wasn't all that sure about striking up a conversation with it.

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..
It's about creating yourself!"  ❖Colleen peeked from the Machine Shop class.. Ohh.. there's no one.. Even Saeslin.. Maybe he's working very hard again.. Taking the basket with her, she walked inside the room..
"Saeslin?.. Are you here?.."
The man must have been locking himself more often, well he's somewhat more aloof than Severin.. In a sense he preferred to be inside his shell.. Sighed.. Why does she always end up being more acquainted with these kind of people?.. Its not out of pity of course! concern.. She's just a concerned friend.. That's it!..
She took a few steps forward, no ones answering her call.."Saelin...."
❖❖❖ "I've waited just to find you..
For I love you for a thousand years..."

Saeslin heard a female voice in his shop. He sighed, setting down his tools. Who could that be? It was lunch so surely not a student. Letting himself out of his workshop, he saw Colleen there. Ah. "C-Colleen," Saeslin said. "H-hello there. How are you?" He pushed his work goggles up onto his head and fumbled for his glasses.
Pulling out a handkerchief, he began to clean them anxiously. "Ah...Forgive the mess. It's always a bit cluttered in here."
"What can I do for you?"
I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..
It's about creating yourself!" ❖After a couple of minutes, she just heard someone calling out her name.. Glancing over to the other door, reappearing from there is Saeslin, and as usual being preoccuppied with his work..
"I just decide to drop by.."
She took a few steps and took an orange from her basket, handling over Saeslin.."I suppose you haven't eaten your lunch.. You were really working hard.."Smiling, she would have known.. This man would be working for a long period of time.. Without thinking much about himself..
"I believe you're working again on your project.. Though you haven't told me much about it.. So I thought, delivering an orange.. Though I should have bake some cookies to suffice your lunch.."
❖❖❖ "I've waited just to find you..

"Oh, thank you," Saeslin said, rather surprised as he took the orange she was offering. "Ah..that's very kind of you." He put his glasses on. "I have not had lunch actually. Ah..." He glanced back at his work room and went over, shutting the door firmly to engage the locking mechanism.
"Perhaps we...ah...should go...to..t-the...t-teacher's lounge? To...ah...have lunch?" Oh God. He probably sounded as if he was coming onto her. He tugged at his collar nervously. "Just as a professional...lunch? It's a bit dusty in here?"
He flailed nervously. "Ah..if you're okay with it?" He really didn't want to go but she had brought him an orange and it really was unsanitary to try to eat it in the workshop...And it had been several days since he saw sunlight.I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..
It's about creating yourself!" ❖Colleen blinked her eyes.. Did he just.... Not to mention the stuttering.. Lunch at the teacher's lounge.. Hmmm..
"Sure.. I'm happy to have this professional lunch with you.." Colleen gave a wide smile at him.. This was the first time someone had asked her to eat lunch with them.. She usueally have her meals all by herself..
"I don't mind to go.. Since its lunch time anyway.. And besides.. Food is great when you shared it with someone.."That's what her adopted mom always told her..

"Very well," Saeslin said. "Why don't you go ahead and I will...ah...I will go get us lunch. I-if that's alright with you."
Gah! What was he getting himself into? Well, at least she had seemed not to get the wrong idea or be offended. that was at least, something. "Is there anything in particular you would like? I can be sure to get it for you." He didn't know what sort of things women liked to eat. Salad? Fruit? He couldn't really imagine her devouring a steak or something but then, who knew? His experience with women was...lacking. Considering the last one he showed interest in killed herself to get away from him.
He sighed slightly, expression going temporarily sad before he forced a slight smile. "Shall we?"I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..
It's about creating yourself!" ❖Once more Colleen blinked her eyes.. Seems Saeslin is having uh... word fart?.. Is that the right term?.. He bit his tongue?.. Oh well.. Colleen nods and smiled..
"Uhm.. alright.. Hmm.." Looking away, now she's running out of words too! Gaaah! Colleen flailed to herself mentally.. But then, she paused when her eyes caught on Saeslin with a sad look.. He might thought of something sad..
Colleen should think of something happy.. Or cheer him up for a bit.."F-Fruit crepes! I-I like to eat fruit crepes and it tastes good that it will make us happy!!"Ehh???! Kyaaaahhh! Why was she stuttering now? She's nervous and at the same time tense.. But as soon as he offered to go.. Colleen pushed the strands of her hair at the back of her ear and smiled.. Following his league..

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..

"Saeslin!"
She peeked from the door with a cheerful tone, then skipped her way inside... Her brows creased as she find no one, even his shadow.. Ah! He must be beyond that metal door again.. Sighing..
"Saeslin!.. Yooohoooo!! Are you there?!"

My wife, and you're dead... Saeslin was in his workshop. He was half buried in papers at his desk, sleeping. There was an untouched plate of food beside him and a myriad of sketches strewn about on the desk and floor, not to mention vials of chemicals and tools scattered about.
He was snoring softly, head pillowed on his arms, glasses askew. He hadn't slept in his bed for four days and he had left his work shop only once, yesterday, to get a late dinner (which he hadn't eaten).
When Colleen came in, he stirred slightly and groaned in his sleep before settling back into his dreams. I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...

COLLEEN XING "Life isn't finding yourself..
It's about creating yourself!"  ❖While waiting for his reply beyond the door, when suddenly she heard a groan and by the time Colleen turned to see Saeslin just doozing at his desk! What the--?! She didn't even notice him there!
Ah! He's sleeping again!.. "Working hard again.. I see.." Smiling, and as usual with his glasses on.. Colleen gently took his glasses off him.. Poor guy, he must be lacking sleep.. She wondered what he has been doing to keep him busy..
Unconsciously wearing his glas---- Whoa!! This guy is blind too! Rubbing her eyes out of that painful lens.. Placing the device down on his table.. She took note of the smear of dust too.. And the classroom's corners with spider cobwebs!.. Saeslin is busy alright that he didn't even cared to clean his workplace..
She would just have to leave him sleeping though.. Sigh.. Looks like she would have to clean this filthy place.. Immediately, Colleen heads to the janitorial stock room or whatever place its called and borrowed a bucket, mop and a broom..
And soon she returned at the workshop, grabbed his work apron and downed with i----- Whoa! It's a little bit big for her! tall hermit! Anyway that will do not to ruin her dress.. And most of all, she took her hanky and neatly tied it to his hair like a hood or something.. Haha >.<
"Alright.. I'm ready.."
And off she starts to work!

My wife, and you're dead... Saeslin was only vaguely aware, in his dream, that someone was in the room, moving around. He listened to his visitor moving around for some time before it occurred to him that he was in his classroom and it could be a student going through his things.
Hurtling into wakefulness, Saeslin bolted upright, looking around blearily, his head feeling foggy and heavy as he scanned the room. His gaze eventually landed on a familiar, pink haired figure wearing his...work apron?
What on earth...?
He could make her out but everything was a bit blurry. It took him a moment to realize his glances were gone. Squinting slightly, he fumbled around his desk, finding them quickly and slipping them on. What was she--was she cleaning?
"C-Colleen?" I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm...
