Note regarding my post: I’ll be posting the article itself up, summarised, at a later date, probably either this week or next. But I know Ylanne has been hankering for a post, so I thought I’d get Dawn’s post up already :P

I will have my post of Mario landing in the States up soon and then work on making contact and getting more involved. Well I have posted and I am still trying to figure a way to get more involved with the plot, but for now I am having fun setting up Mario and the shadowy world of the operators.
The writer who cares more about words than about characters, action, setting, atmosphere is unlikely to create a vivid and continuous dream; he gets in his own way too much; in his poetic drunkenness, he can't tell the cart- and its cargo- from the horse.

Hello everyone! If you didn't receive my individually-sent mass PMs, this is your reminder to post. Please do so! The vast majority of folks have not posted in the last two months.

Also, for those of you who did read the Day Three introductory post, I recorded this yesterday for your listening pleasure. I recorded myself reading (only) Rabiya's speech from the first segment of the introductory post. There is one major mistake (I completely stumbled over one phrase) but it should otherwise be accurate and can be listened while keeping the post itself open in another tab or window. Any thoughts on the reading are appreciated, of course.

I'm sorry I've left posting for so long. My medical problems have worsened and I've been having family issues on top of everything. I'm getting better, and I'd love to join back in, if you'll have me back.

I would definitely have you back. If I removed you from the character roster, let me know and I'll fix it. Please post whenever. I'm glad to hear that you're feeling better too. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you.

Thanks, Tempest. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your most recent post, and will try to put up a post for Natalie and Tahira in Eagle's Nest soon.

We're waiting on posts from Ivanol, Script, Baby, Ottoman, and LightingStrikes at the moment. Alasund De'astio and Tempest both recently posted.

This roleplay was originally created in a tab located at When the Lion Wakes in the tab, and Remaeus and I spent the other day creating the correct places where scenes and posts have taken place. Sometime within the next week or two, the posts from the in-character thread will be migrated to the roleplay in the new system, where they will remain readable entirely in chronological order, as well as in-character location-stamped. Future posts (AFTER the existing ones have been migrated) will need to be made to the correct location in the roleplay (and if there is not a location listed here that you need, I can create it for you.)

When this roleplay was first created in March 2010 (yes, 2010), I was not happy with the tab system as it existed. With a slew of recent changes made to suit writing and my style of reading, I would like to see these posts migrated back into the tab. If you don't believe me about its readability, check this Multiverse place and the way posts are listed there. You can click on different pages, and posts made using the posting box at the bottom would appear in that location. The same system, on a smaller scale (as there are fewer *places, roleplayers, and posts in When the Lion Wakes), will work for us, and for both our shorter and longer posts.

Is there anything in particular I need to be posting? Because though there have been a couple of posts that directly refer to Dawn, at the moment I'm thinking I'll need to come up with a little mini-plotline within London for her until the other characters catch up with her. If there's nothing I need to directly address, I'll set to thinking of something.

Tempest, you and Skallagrim may want to think about collaborating as well, as Skall is writing for the CIA's Special Activities Division, if I'm not mistaken. A PM could be a good idea, if you need to contact him and he doesn't respond immediately to this thread. (Then again, Skall, you might be reading this yourself, in which case a response would be lovely.)

Dawn -- I can't think of anything specific, except either things she is doing with her new job, or things she is doing to avoid being found or tracked. As Tempest suggested, you might have room for some collaboration there.

I hope to get a post up this weekend. I also need to post in Orsa of Terminus, and to prepare for some things work-related offline. I hope I'll have time over the weekend to get caught up. I'm thinking the post will delve into one or both of their backstories a bit more, as I like to do that. Tahira, we've explored a bit in the introductions to the three days. I think I'll focus on Natalie in this one.

Progress update -- I've about 1/3 of the way through the post in-progress. With any luck, it'll be up by the end of this weekend. The lengthy delay was a product of multiple unavoidable setbacks and unforeseeable adverse circumstances. Post your progress updates here as well, thanks.

Welcome back. And I'm waiting on your post and perhaps a reply from Script on whether or not she wants me to hunt her... Until then, limbo...
