Please note this is in no way a critique, merely a part of learning about how to RP with others. Unlikely, I'm going to ask you to edit your last post, for a few reasons:((I'm sorry! I'm still sort of new to this so try to put up with me  yeah, sorry about screwing it up I'll try to fix it right now))
*I had mentioned to VLLL it is generally not a good idea to assume control of anothers character without permission, or until you know that RPer well. When you scooped up Nica and took off with her, you assumed control of her. You took a direct action on her without giving her a chance to react to it. I ran with it, because it fit the scene, and the character of Nica. In the future, people will not always run with this sort of thing. The correct phrase would be; 'Lodine reached down to scoop Nica up.' I can then either have Nica scamper away from you, or allow herself tobe scooped up. Control of my character still lies with me.
*You missed the part where VLLL jumped ahead of you, waiting for you. This probably should have warranted some sort of interaction between the two of you. Instead, there was no mention of this in your post.
*Your last post advanced things very far, and very quickly. You've left Ul'dah and the Duskies behind, essentially writing them out of the scene when it was just getting going. Realistically, at this point, Nica has lost. I would rather her not get eaten by your group, but to have some last minute hero jump in seems a little contrived and forced. Again, it feels that control of my character has been taken away from me.
Please edit your post to stay within the city of Ul'dah, addressing VLLL's action, allowing the others a chance to stay in the scene, and allowing Nica a chance to react, since its her life on the line here =p thanks!!))
((* btw I won't be around an internet connection for a couple days so if you guys would like to take control of my guy, please feel free! I wouldn't want this to come crashing to a halt because of me!))
((disregard my last post! haha I hope I do it right this time though!))
Lodine glanced back to check on his pursuers, and he saw the male duskwright run off!Â
*What is that guy doing? He... he's up to something! I know it!" He quickens his pace and reaches the steps of Nald. He starts to slow down, the weight of the miqo'te wasn't too bad, but carrying her like this was starting to wear him down.
"Crap! Where do I go now?"
He thinks for a moment, coming almost to a halt. Then it hits him!
"The weavers guild!"
((Sorry if I messed up again! But I do appreciate you guys giving me the advice! Hopefully I'll get better thoughÂ
