Tiberius [Captain James T. Kirk] (formerly Sky)

[Because Kirk really needs a general one o/ OPEN FOREVER just comment with the day in the subject.]

PLACEHOLDER for the Orion journal. :|d

( So Nishi had this fabulous horrible awesome idea... )

[Not long ago, in a galaxy not so far away...

The away team of the USS Enterprise finds itself on yet another routine mission. Whether due to the aftermath of Vulcan, still fresh in the minds of everyone in the Federation, or Starfleet's gentle attempts to keep its youngest captain from doing stupid shit, the past few months have been largely uneventful. Diplomatic luncheons with aliens. Distress calls that involved five minutes of problem-solving and five days of paperwork. Scotty proving to Chekov that he could both drink the Ensign under the table and repair a warp core at the same time. (At least that had been entertaining, if mildly explosive.)

And now they're here, on an uncharted planet doing a geological survey. The fifth in the same system, in fact, and the only differences between the damn things are temperature and soil color. This one is hot and deserted, covered chalky white powder that sticks to everything, especially their black regulation pants. The others seem more into this whole rock-scanning thing, so Kirk takes the liberty of getting the hell out. Unfortunately, the planet is just as boring fifty meters away from the team as it is right next to them.

He kneels next to particularly hefty chunk of chalk and pulls out his communicator.]

Stardate 2258.84, captain's log. I've just scanned another rock. Just thought you should know.

SO I HEAR THERE'S A MEME GOING AROUND. I. tend to fail at them, but since Kirk is going soon and I have like nothing to do this week I'm gonna give it a shot.

Questions meme for Kirk/Watanuki/Kurogane!

This isn't a hiatus or even a semi-hiatus, but ... health complications and the fact that I'm suddenly moving home to America in about a month have seriously sapped my RP energy. I'll still be around to reply to stuff and do mod duties, but I have been and will be incredibly thread-droppy. Just ping me if I've forgotten something you want to continue. :<d

Warning: 6k+ words of game blather under these cuts.

... okay, I think that's all I have for this section. Essay on Kirk's SotU will come ... later. When my fingers stop hurting. DX I know I missed a few things (mostly questions I answered in-chat or in PM), so if I forgot something just remind me and I'll add it.

Since a lot of people have asked me for these: notes on Kirk's heart! I am super-pleased with how things went, overall. Everyone was so awesome and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to run this with you guys.

This is going to get hellishly long, I think, so I'm going to split this thing into three parts: the normal sections, Orion Quest Redux, and then Kirk's post-heart SotU.

( Part One )

Notes on the Orion Quest section will go up once I finish, which might take a few days. I did a stupid amount of planning for that half, okay. 8(

[you know, I haven't seen Fay in a while. :|aaa Kirk's not about to go waking up Pavo at this time of night, but a quick sneak in the dorms' direction to see if he happens to be out and about is in order.]

Semi-hiatus until March MAY 2nd! My dad's in Japan for the week, so I'll be showing him around and generally not spending as much time on the internet as usual until then.

Still ill as all fuck. Extending my hiatus for another week.

[after moving shenanigans are done, there is a captain coming to knock at Pavo's door.]

Sunny?

Calling a semi-hiatus! I've been feeling pretty damn bleehhhh this week, to the point where I haven't wanted to do anything except curl up and watch movies all night. DX Threads will be slow and/or picked up later. So really less of a hiatus and more of a heads-up type thing.

So, how about that wolf game.

( Rambling, etc. )

tl;dr Kirk needs some shore leave and a break from being crazy!Orion!captain.

I wasn't gonna do this 'cause I failed hard at it last time, but then I remembered "o wait I have a new character and teammates and stuff :|aaaa" So! THAT MEME! You know what you doing, etc. Replies may be delayed until after I get back to Japan, depending on how busy my last day in America ends up being.

I play Kirk, Watanuki, and Kurogane. (Nico is also fair game.)

Well, it's that time again. I've got a huuuge plane ride this weekend, which means I'll be absolutely gone until late on Sunday. AKA I'm gonna miss Excel's game. If it's a non-serious game, assume he's in the background (or stayed at home to help refill their supplies); if it's serious/trauma game, then assume a Judge snagged him briefly. Watanuki will just be stuck in the kitchen, as usual. I am really really anal about Kirk being present for games, okay. :( I should probably sticky this as a standard procedure (with "lost in the caves" as a substitute for "judgenapped," since that really shouldn't happen more than once or twice) for when I can't make games unexpectedly.

Hit Points: B
Magic Points: C- (materia only; Enemy Skill only, really; he sucks hard at normal materia.)
Strength: B
Defense: B
Magic: C-
Magic Defense: C
Intelligence: A+ (genius-level intellect, one of the best tactical minds to come out of Starfleet...)
Wisdom: B (... but intelligence =/= sense. Even so, he's not dumb as much as he just tends to disregard his own safety.)
Will: A
Dexterity: B
Speed: B
Stamina: B+
Health: C

Other: I tried to scale this with Spock's, since Jim being an appropriately athletic human puts him approximately one level lower than Spock in most physical levels. He's quite a strong overall fighter, being the top of his class in tactics and hand-to-hand combat, but that doesn't mean a whole lot in Sabra. (Also, he doesn't have his big Starfleet Academy memory back yet, so he's missing a lot of training.)

Okay, I just worked out exactly what I have to do before I can go home on Saturday, annnd it is kinda scary. So! I am officially gonna call myself a semi-hiatus, starting now and going until ... uhhh ... next week? Holidays will also make things busy, but I imagine that won't be unusual. If it looks like I'm gonna be completely gone, I'll shift into a full hiatus and ask for a Judge-napping or something.

I will tryyy to do the posts/threads I promised people this week, but since I'm basically not allowing myself on the computer until I get my errand run for the day ... yeah, I'm gonna be scarce. :( Sorry!
