Ymora Academy Reboot [Interest Check / Discussion]

Recommended Posts

A.k.a the reason Hukuna wants nothing to do with this because just the way it was last time... No thank you. Pretty sure that's way people still know not to 'ship' any characters with any of mine since I dislike it that much. Like almost certain Ymora is the reason people know that since i refused to join the original on that grounds alone lol.

Maybe I'll think about it this time... since it doesn't quite bother me as much as it used to, but really... if it gets to that level like it did... I'm dropping in a heartbeat.

Sorry, but I've been wanting to find a use for that like forever. I can't really say how shipping will go for this time around (I got 3 ships the last time...Henry of all people). I mean most of them aren't super serious so if people get offended or uncomfortable we'll try to tone it down. I was kind of against it at the start, but I've learned to embrace it.

Eh, shipping isn't something that sits well with me at all really, it's just not something I find funny or cute or etc like other people do. It feels super forced to me and kinda... just wrong to me. Like, it's so unnatural and feels forced and fake and just plain artifice. That's why I don't like it and it bothers me even as a joke.. more as joke to be honest. Since it kinda dilutes something that should mean something and not just be random throw it out there kind of thing to me.

But, that's a personal opinion. Not saying you guys should edit yourselves for like my sake lol. That's definitely not fair of me and it's definitely not my place to say certain things are just unacceptable. For me, I don't care for that stuff and really don't like it, so not really going to be something I just do. I basically think there should be a reason for it to be a thing than what it usually is which is just it cropping up kinda out of nowhere. It's just how I feel about it.

I'm nowhere near quite as adverse to it as I was, though it's definitely still not my cup of tea. But, I'd rather give something a try than just veto it on that grounds. Do feel like I kinda missed out on something from the original Ymora since I just refused to participate lol.

Did shipping really get that bad in Ymora?

I dunno about for everyone, but it did for me. It was very uncomfortable for me to read it because it was just that much of it. Like I didn't play in it or read it because it started right out of the gate and was literally done to do it. I quite despise that. I think it calmed down after a time, but early on it seemed like it was shipping for the sake of doing it rather than having any bearing to the story at all. It was just like rampant. Though some of it was probably just joking around... I think above I made it clear why it bothers me as even a joke lol. But yes, it was bad enough it made me not want to participate at all to the point I didn't really even read it because there was just too much of it going on that I wasn't comfortable at all while reading it even.

Let me see...

Kage x Ryan

Danielle x Jacob

Danielle x Slade

Claude x almost everyone

Henry x Raiza

Mareek x Lana

Henry x Lana

Henry x Kristen

Jacob x Kristen

Ryan x random NPC I created to mess around with him

Henry x Robert x Kenny x Shiro (definitely something weird going on with those 4. Complicated.)

I'm pretty sure I forgot a few...

Shipping normally is ew to me. Feels like screwing around with characters you don''t know way too much, kinda obtrusive on the creators IP as it were. In RPing It's different, though not something I go out of my way to indulge in. It's like watching friends and trying to set them up, because there is no Canon, the writer hasn't decided that X is how things should be for that character.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh, and I think trying to set people up is kinda weird, since it should be there business not yours. But, that's me. Personally... I rather people just leave characters I write but of it unless there's an actual reason for it... but once again that's my opinion lol.

Oh nah, I only ever ship one of my characters with another person. I think I've only ever shipped one pair of people in fiction, which broke my rule above but how can you not ship Harry Drasden and Murphy mrgrgrgr

Haha, oh wow I remember how all that went down. Including when Robert x Sissy started.

Speaking of, I guess I should get rid of/store out of existence the heartbreaking Dusk Stone and the Mega Pocket Watch.

A better question is how did you mess the the spelling of the name of the title character of a series to the point that it's called the Dresden Files? And I definitely don't lol. Mostly cause I don't do that thing but I really don't see that working out. Anyway that was off-topic.

Mega Pocket Watch as in the one I gave to whoever I gave it to? Cuz Shiro had a broken Mega Pocket Watch. Tell meh what happened, noooow!! >3>

Anyhow, gonna answer those questions or whatevs cuz I don't have anything better to do:

1. Reboot from scratch would be cool, I like that. And the story should be what the story should be. It doesn't matter as long as it's a story. ^^

2. Old PCs should start from scratch if we're resetting the story. I guess it would be doable if at the time of the new story they were older or something, though I'd prefer a full on reset. *shrugs*

3. We made separate threads for non-plot battles? Did that also happen after I went away?

4. I want to see a lot of character interactions, as well as many people shipping me (I actually enjoy when somebody ships my chars, lolz)

5. I guess there are no immediate problems I foresee with this. People like it and there's a lot of people involved, meaning it's relativly fast paced. It's also cool and all that, so yeah, gg.

Wait...people actually shipped those two together. Those two together...they'd pretty much both be using each other at the start. Not that it really matters now though. So many events revolved around why all those lists came up. It's just to show that character interaction can go so many different ways.

Just thinking back on it, I'm kind of wondering if people who use their old characters will use some of their old Pokemon as well. I know Paradox and Burrows are going bye-bye if I pick Henry again, but there is one I'm considering bringing back besides the starter.

Uh...aside from maybe Duskull....everything's going back to the machine for recreation. Maybe one of the others might come back but eh, too early to think of that.

@Bfroger: Hehe, no problem, though things'll end up resetting with the reboot.

Oooh, so... A revival-versary?

As for the what stays what goes... Some will stay, others will be swapped around, but certain ones will remain.

Hmmm, I think it be best to keep favorites but to mix up some of the members on the old teams. It'd be a tad boring to just use the same ones again I think lol. After all there's a lot of variety in Pokemon and it might be pretty fun to switch up the team of the character even if you bring them back.

If I played in the original I'd probably change the whole of my team. However, I'm probably just that kind of person lol.

And the ICs Birthday is my birthday too <3

I should probably start writing down the ideas I thought of for the character since I actually think I came up with some really good stuff.
