Unusual Business OOC

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sun Mar 31, 2024 6:36 pm

Figured I should make an OOC now that the thread is going.

We are two days away from the retirement party.

Long work week is over! Now my brain can recover. Sheesh, hope I don't have to do that again for awhile. ><

I'll have a post up soon, probably early to mid afternoon? Of course, my afternoon is like midnight so technically it'll be tomorrow.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Thu Apr 04, 2024 8:55 am

I'll keep an eye out for it.

Only one note: unless Cadence somehow got married the night before, Faye should be referring to her as "Ms. Halomek."

"Mrs." is the abbreviation used for married women.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Fri Apr 05, 2024 6:35 am

Huh?

Cadence said, "Master Ward."

and Faye said, "Mrs. Halomek, or Faye. Call me Faye."

Last I checked Faye is married.

You're 100% right and it's too early in the morning, lol.

I think what threw me off is I don't think of Faye as "Faye Halomek" since everyone is referring to her as Faye Ward still. So my foggy brain thought that obviously Faye was referring to Cadence. Except that doesn't work either because Cadence is not a member of their family tree.

Too many new characters lately. That's probably it...

Other people have, technically Faye hasn't.

Though in all seriousness, Colleen is changing her last name later this year because she needed to renew her passport early for a trip to Italy, and it's causing some funny shit at the post office sometimes.

Our mailbox has "Martin" on it and one of her friends got a return to sender because she put the maiden name on the letter like a dumb dumb.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Fri Apr 05, 2024 6:51 am

Lol, nice.

Whelp, I'm off to bed. G'night!

... I say, as the sun rises. ><

You have a good point. Looks like the wiki needs an update on her article.

Mir, before I get to work on my next post, are we getting a tiny fuzzy hitchhiker on the Windfall?

Part of my next post will be Mav inspecting the Windfall, so that would be the perfect time to bring a certain Salmurian into the thread if you're interested.

Big Sash prob fits better in this thread.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sat Apr 06, 2024 4:48 pm

All set for Sash to make her debut in the thread.

You all have a new GOAT to worship

Grandsister? Cadence is not going to like that title. Makes her sound old.

oh there's a reason it says adopted mother on the wiki. there's a reason pryngles.

Siri play hoobastank.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Mon Apr 08, 2024 7:30 am

Personally, I think Sasha calling her adopted daughter is more amusing.

Kind of fits her personality better too, I think, with the whole "assist and protect" thing. And between the two of them Cadence is definitely the most childish.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Wed Apr 10, 2024 9:43 pm

I don't really have anything else in mind for what might happen next and I think we can kinda gloss over the whole touristy part. Sooo, unless you had something in mind for Kalja's investigation I'd say we're good to jump to the party.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Wed Apr 10, 2024 11:34 pm

Hmm... I don't know...

A Halomek family outing would naturally include Cassian. It might be interesting to have Cadence forced to face him on her own on some low stakes challenges and start turning their animosity into a more healthy rivalry. Then Cadence can have her big moment at the party to really show him up.

I just need to think of touristy places for families to visit. Maybe a giant mall akin to the Mall of America? Lots of stuff to do there - including a giant arcade.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Thu Apr 11, 2024 1:34 am

Working on the post for Kalja, but in the meantime feel free to move things forward to the mall, Pryde.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sat Apr 13, 2024 9:44 pm

The plot thickens...

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Sun Apr 14, 2024 8:52 pm

Did you want to post something for Sigarr before I continue?

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sun Apr 14, 2024 9:20 pm

I don't have much to add for Sigarr at the moment. Go ahead and continue.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Tue Apr 16, 2024 12:46 am

I'll try to get something up soon. Got a little distracted brainstorming some background info for my book's setting. ><

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Wed Apr 17, 2024 8:23 am

Sorry for the lateness, tonight's my Friday, weekend starting tomorrow so tomorrow night at the latest I'll have something up.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Wed Apr 17, 2024 11:01 am

No worries. I've been a bit busy myself lately.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Wed Apr 17, 2024 10:38 pm

I am almost done fixing the mess I made of my manuscript. (Another reason why my post is taking so long. >.> ) When I get that fixed I'll dm links to people for feedback.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Wed Apr 17, 2024 10:46 pm

The forums really need a "Like" button...

I think that's been said before.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Fri Apr 19, 2024 8:29 am

Funny, before I started, I didn't really have much to write. Guess I had more than I thought.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sat Apr 20, 2024 4:00 pm

If you're good with Cadence's day out, I can advance the story with my next post.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Sat Apr 20, 2024 6:03 pm

Yes lets, I don't know if I have anymore in me.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Sat Apr 20, 2024 11:42 pm

New post is up!

Since Mir never described Sasha as wearing any clothes, I took that as an opportunity to make Mav responsible for that outfit that she's wearing in her wiki picture. I hope that works!

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Thu Apr 25, 2024 8:13 am

I'll have something up tonight now that it's the weekend.

Well, for me, anyway.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Thu Apr 25, 2024 8:07 pm

Sounds good!

Mir, Sasha's reply isn't critical to the story, but it would be nice to get a response there too.

Sooo, Mir, any consideration for a bit of role reversal? Have Sasha adopt Cadence this time? I think that would be way funnier. And trust me, she needs the supervision.

Post by **Mir** » Fri Apr 26, 2024 12:05 pm

First thing she's doing is putting something terrible in the water for cassian's shower.

"I need a shower"

This guy.

Pryde · Post by **Pryde** » Fri Apr 26, 2024 6:51 pm

Omg, I didn't even think of that interpretation when I wrote it. ><

That's not how he meant it, he's just confused. But I could certainly see how someone might take it that way.

Halomek · Post by **Halomek** » Fri Apr 26, 2024 7:17 pm

For the record, Kalja Falanis completely missed Sasha's arrival during Cadence's birthday.

She was laid out from the spicy stew incident when they arrived with Tosh and then snuck out with Cadence after she recovered, so she and Sasha have never formally met yet.
