50 new posts in this thread since last time I checked. I swear Harley needs her own flirting forum.



Some comments on the actual story.....
I've really been enjoying it. I expected good stuff from CJ, Doc and Grimm because of stuff I've read before (I've been lurking in this forum for a while). I'm having fun doing this even though I haven't contributed a lot, I plan on doing more but I kinda see this as me going along for the ride, adding what I can without stepping on anyones toes. This is going to be a learning experience for me. Harley has surprised me with her writing. I have enough trouble coming up with my posts and here she comes in out of blue and posts massive additions that are really good same with Knutreturns, who doing well, I like the Sam Fisher thing. I need more references to how the character are. For what ever reason I picture Seth as Sawyer from lost, with the voice and everything.

oh, so you're one of the people that reads this stuff.

you realize you just left yourself open to batches of questioning from people wanting to know what you've read, right?

I'm so confused! When did I get a sister?

Just to let you know, I envision Redjack of being mixed Irish/African ancestry so any siblings would also have to be part black or half siblings (I know I never said it, I expected people to catch on from him being from the south side of Chicago). I imagine him as being a light skinned black man with red hair. Unusual, I know.

The name Redjack came from me playing solitare on the computer and thinking "Blackjack is a common term, but Redjack isn't. I shall make a character with that name!"

His shady background kept him out of the Special Forces. He left the Army and became a mercenary but later found that he could use his skills and connections to make more money working for criminal orginizations.

I thought we could make this stuff up as we went along? Or are there certain rules that I don't know about WRT doing things w/ other people's characters?

Geez, NW, it's not like I killed him or anything...

You're assuming that people know what the south side of Chicago is like. I have no idea what its like and never would have drawn that inference.

Cool.

Edit: Actually, the more I think about this, the more I like the idea of them being half-sibs...NW, I think this gives them a shared history beyond just being heist partners and can prove to be fertile grounds for a twist or two down the line...

I thought it would be unusual and he IS illegitimate, just with an Irish dad. "Reddish" probably would have been a better word than "red".

I like the idea, I was just surprised and explaining some of the strange, strange reasoning that goes through my head. It definitely opens possibilities and gives him a connection to one of the other characters beyond working together (and not being part of the love duodecagon that's been constructed).

Well...I mean Vivian oviously has boobs and longer hair and just looks a little more pretty. But yeah, I sort of saw her as a female McGill, fast talker, crafty, cunning...but so, so lost...

K im somewhat confused...I know that i had posted about Sam that his "enemy" had produced evidence that he was a rat (it was fake by the way) but Harley had posted that it was Leigh that gave this evidence to Viv. Does that mean that she was working for this guy?

Could be. Or it may be interpreted that Leigh had heard of Sam's 'betrayal' and thought it was genuine as well.

I promise that I will never again attempt to be subtle.

I think they would. I'd say it was probably Leigh who brought Redjack into the group. The way I'm seeing it is that they didn't know the other existed until they were both in their teens and that Redjack never really knew his father. They both got into crime on their own (proving criminal tendencies are hereditary) Oh, and his van is dark blue. DARK BLUE. Just in case it comes up later (y'know if there's a car shooting scene later).

how does the saying go? oh yeah, "subtlety is lost. . ."

seriously though, most of us aren't too familiar with the south side of chicago (or the north, west, and east sides. . .)

but it's kool. I think we can roll now. the van was bright pink, you say?

All I know about Chicago is that weird people are from there. Like my sister's in-laws.

Ok, just read the updates in the story and I have to say that I am so damned impressed with you guys! Really liking how this is going and look forward to jumping in again when I get back. And yes, I'm on the crackberry right now - despite the best laid plans to be cb free, a work deal began to hemorrhage the morning I was supposed to leave (of course) and I was forced to take this thing with me.

Now I'm nursing the mother of all hangovers - seriously, I feel awful, tho that could also be from all the moola I've lost it's hard to count to "21" when things get blurry! - and am the only person not sleeping at the moment, so I popped in here...

Y'know, Knut, I caught that after I posted it too, and I wasn't sure which way it was gonna play out. Still not sure, though I understand it may not be up to me to decide.

Grimm: "biter"? Ha! You are sooooo lucky that you are not within asskicking distance!

Also, since we seem to clarify things in this thread - I'm a bit confused about something too. It's been implied that Leigh and Seth were lovers at one point, but then Seth says that they've never played this game w each other before. So, which is it? Were they or weren't they?

Like I said in an earlier post, I don't have a problem with that angle, but only if it provides a motive or forwards the story in some way. I just don't want Leigh - or Vivian for that matter - to be painted as tramps "just because."

Also, I don't know how it usually works in group writing, but can I suggest that Redjack and Leigh have some kind of relationship that isn't totally about betrayal? They are brother and sister afterall and I would like to think she isn't completely heartless. If I had the time I would write it myself, and if no one wants to tackle it I will when I get back in a few.

Again, I don't mean to step on peoples toes if this is not how things are done in this forum. Its only a suggestion, but if there is some sort of protacol about how thing work here, please let me know.

You guys have done phenomenal job - I like the addition of Ramos and the backstory give. Excellent, CJ.

See you guys in a few.

ah, I couldn't resist getting a little rib in.

Also, since we seem to clarify things in this thread - I'm a bit confused about something too. It's been implied that Leigh and Seth were lovers at one point, but then Seth says that they've never played this game w each other before. So, which is it? Were they or weren't they?





ok what I was going for in that scene is that Leigh is trying to throw him off with her body and acting playful. when she says "we've never played this game before" it's referring to Seth's "handling" of her. he's being a little rough, and she's trying to turn it to her advantage.

when replied "Oh, we've never played this game before." It's actually in reference to something I was trying to set up with Leigh, Redjack, and Seth in an attempt to build off of nw's post about them going to Jersey. he was talking about something other than a relationship. but that little subplot got kinda derailed. *shrugs*

so it's still open as to whether they have or haven't. doesn't matter to me either way.

I like the Bogart approach of just getting drunk again...

K im somewhat confused...I know that i had posted about Sam that his "enemy" had produced evidence that he was a rat (it was fake by the way) but Harley had posted that it was Leigh that gave this evidence to Viv. Does that mean that she was working for this guy?




Could be. Or it may be interpreted that Leigh had heard of Sam's 'betrayal' and thought it was genuine as well.




Y'know, Knut, I caught that after I posted it too, and I wasn't sure which way it was gonna play out. Still not sure, though I understand it may not be up to me to decide.




I kind of like the idea of Leigh working with Ramos for a little while -- perhaps she was the agent for informing Vivian? But that's only if everyone else is cool with it.

Like I said in an earlier post, I don't have a problem with that angle, but only if it provides a motive or forwards the story in some way. I just don't want Leigh - or Vivian for that matter - to be painted as tramps "just because."




They're morally loose in every other way...

But yeah, I get what your getting at. Honestly, play it however you want. Personally, I like the idea of Leigh flirting with Seth, simply because I'm sure it would piss Vivian off more. Which would make Seth and Leigh pretty happy. And I could sort of believe Seth would do that on purpose just to make Vivian jealous (in fact, that's why I had Vivian get her cigarettes from Sam -- sort of a way to dig into Seth).

Quote:

Also, I don't know how it usually works in group writing, but can I suggest that Redjack and Leigh have some kind of relationship that isn't totally about betrayal? They are brother and sister afterall and I would like to think she isn't completely heartless. If I had the time I would write it myself, and if no one wants to tackle it I will when I get back in a few.




Actually, you make a good point. While completely evil villians are okay sometimes, I think we're going for something a little more complex. And I think it's quite a good idea to have Leigh (or anyone) have someone that they're capable of keeping promises with. That's what makes them more interesting. So go ahead, make Redjack and Leigh trust each other. I'm all for it.

Again, I don't mean to step on peoples toes if this is not how things are done in this forum. Its only a suggestion, but if there is some sort of protacol about how thing work here, please let me know.




Oh, this is pretty much how we do things. If we didn't communicate, everone's egos would get in the way. Plus, as we've already discovered, being subtle doesn't work here very well.

And don't be afraid to PM a particular person if you want to work on something. I already PMed Grimm about a few things, because I do want some suspense for everyone.

You guys have done phenomenal job - I like the addition of Ramos and the backstory give. Excellent, CJ.




Thanks! I figured since this was my idea, I should come up with a villian we can tackle. Not the greatest I've done (but for some reason he reminds me of the fat guy in Casablanca, so maybe I'll give him a blue parrot). Throwing Ramos in can move the story forward, and I'm all about that.

CJ, you are a girl after my own heart. You ever make it up to Yankeeland (and I mean that both historically and baseball wise - and both Knut and my Cap'n can stop rolling their eyes now), you and I will have a night out on the town with beer, whiskey and daquiris...

Got in about 40 minutes ago. Can't sleep. Fuckin' insomnia. I don't want to go and lose more money, so I came back here. Hope this works. I couldn't think of a new title for this chapter. Sorry. If someone wants to change the title, please feel free.



Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
