thunderbolts_and_sunshine Sir Upper Crust the 3rd EladrinStarmist This too is sacred... Does our vote have any actual bearing on what happens in Mike's plot?
Sir Uppercrust: Have hope! Babies are born as a completely clean slate, mentally and emotionally. We are continually growing and adapting and learning from/with our environment from the day we get out of the womb 'till the day we die. There's always room for improvement if the person is willing to do the hurting it takes to actually grow. ...love as thou wilt I had hope once, but I've seen the world for what it is and know the ugly truth. I know that we adapt to our surroundings, which is to say no person is rotten from the get go, but there is a point at which a person will always be that person even if moved to new surroundings. And even so, humans are inherently terrible destructive beasts. Given time no matter what the conditions are or what they know of the world and its history, man kind will destroy itself. I suppose, there are exceptions to any situation. My general outlook on life is bleak, so I guess that's just my way of seeing things.

Sir Upper Crust the 3rd I vote for sad ending cause I think Mike's just being a big baby about everything and is making life hard for himself, so he deservs to go down in flames of misery. Just sayin. You be an emotionally frail 14 year old who accidentally slaughters half a city and tell me that you're not in one way shape or form ******** up afterwards. People really need to step into character's shoes with problems and look at them realistically instead of writing them off as being little babies.

I dunno.
Even if this mini-plot ends in a happy ending (though it appears that way now, at least according to the poll results thus far) and Mike does start down the road to mental recovery, there will still be a fair amount of bumps and ruts to overcome, so it's not as simple as it sounds. Getting past the whole Milo thing is going to be a difficult task in itself, not to mention repairing all the rifts with all his friends and certain others in his life (cough*Flannery*cough*). I believe that Milo's presence is solidified enough and doesn't really need anymore... emphasis. In other words, Mike's got enough on his plate already and he should start working to clear that.

It's a shame though, my bad ending for this one was so crazy. The good ending is moreso not really a good ending, but an ending where s**t just doesn't go completely off the wall.

Well you know I support you and all... but I think TTR's has enough crazy at the moment, kthnxbai. My thoughts exactly. Mike and I have all ready had a long discussion/fight over this. Besides who in there right mind would even give a 14 year old that much power anyway? Gah! Not here to start another fight on this with Mike. Like I said he knows my thoughts on the subject and we will leave it to that. In the end there can be no happy ending for our once beloved character. Mike saw to that, all he can do now is not make us hate him.

Why should I have to limit myself when I basically started the whole crazy deal? >:I And Melph, it'll all make sense when this plotline is over. It's not like I'm just throwing out random ideas. I've planned this obsessively.

Apparently being sheerly exhausted aids in the creative juices.

18% / 81% , oh symmetry.
i voted sad back then. although happy endings leave me warm and fuzzy, they sometimes just don't impact me as much.
like a clockwork orange would have been so much more a profound statement of human depravity if not for the last chapter (of the original version; the american version, in very few publications, still omits it), at least in my opinion. the author said he wanted to show that human progress, but human progress and happy endings aren't inevitable; sometimes things just don't go so well.

I've planned this obsessively. I don't doubt that you have planned it obsessively now. All I want to say is this, why do you want to make a character that no one would really like, you would be limiting yourself in the future. The more other peoples characters don't like you the less they will play with you. Yeah you can rp by yourself for a long time, eventually though you will get bored of it I think. Like I said there is only so much you can do with crazy. It is kind of contradicting, you would think crazy makes more opens available but really it just shuts a lot of doors on what you could do. Crazy also limits character growth a lot, it basically puts you in the same rut over and over and over again since you can only do crazy or stuff related to that. They also get very boring very fast. I just want to remind you of that Mike. You can do whatever you want I won't stop you and neither will my words if you are dead set on crazy. Like I have said before I am no mod here you can do whatever the hell you want. After all you are a mod for the rp and it is your character. Once you do this though you can't go back. All though last time something big like this happened the person pussied out and changed it. stare

Ok I have to agree with Melph on a few things. There really is only so much you can do with a crazy character. Not only that but after a while the crazy does get kind of repetitive and boring, and it really doesn't hold any room for character growth. Sure, Mike's past actions have seriously f***ed him up. Who wouldn't be after an ordeal like that. But I do think that growing past it and becoming a better person for it is more important than keeping up the craziness for longer than needed. Thats just my two cents worth as I'm sure it won't impact anything. And if you're unhappy with the way the poll is going Mike, then why'd you put it up in the first place? Especially if you really did want to keep trucking along the really crazy road? Just saying. I'm not trying to start anything. Anyway I'm going to go back to posting now, even though I'm sure not many people really care what Riza and Katie are up to.

There got that post up finally. Just didn't have the energy to type it up last night. Wrote in the groggy stupor that I remained in while at work, which was annoyingly slow the entire time, especially seeing as I was running on essentially no sleep.
Though I did do a bit of editting and rephrasing as I typed it. That often happens.
