c'mon brain...do not quit on me now.
There is so much creativeness to be done.
...I need to run a scenario somewhere to experiment with how I should have Lotus, Joe, and Terrisa act. Because right now I do not have a solid concept of how they would behave in average day life...
...actually I could say that for all character's I've developed. I don't have their "average day" behavior down.... at all.
How could I go about this?

RP with yourself? It sounds goofy, but it works. Just imagine then interacting with each other. :p
@everyone
Well, looks like I'll be moving into the house tomorrow. :p

Okay guys I have some pretty bad news.
I was in the living room watching TV when I heard Sus beginning to go into panic over something. I went into the Den, and saw him passing out. To me it seems like he had a Panic Attack of some sort. I already called the ambulance, and they already took him down to the hospital (or are taking him down there right now) to find out what happened. I am unsure of what happened. Wriggle told me that he was unsure, but hopefully he will be alright. I will try and keep you all updated.

That's just called writing practice, mate.
Also, about the Sustic thing, last I heard from him (Like an hour ago), he sounded pretty melancholy to me. He'll probably be fine though. Pretty angry earlier today though. Wonder if that has anything to do with it.
Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.
You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

@S121
Sustic was unconscious when the ambulance arrived. When I got to the hospital just now (currently using Sustic's old laptop to keep in touch with you guys), the paramedics said he woke up in the Ambulance and seemed fine aside from him complaining about feeling lightheaded and a little short on breath. Currently he is already getting checked on by the doctors and whatnot. It might have been as simple as a minor panic attack.

@ S1 and Kristia
I tried to see what my characters do in my head for daily routines. They attack me violently everytime I go in there :<
The main problem is deciding on the smaller "qwirks" they might have alongside constructing a valid scenario.
The second part is that I'll do things but not know what would best describe it. So I need other brains to tell me what I'm doing and if it's consistent/makes sense/ etc.
That's the other reason why I sometimes create random passages for EG, to get feedback on what I just did because sometimes I'm not certain what it's "saying."
For instance the recent Random passage I made for Lotus and Joe. To me it looks like it portrays... well... what I was trying to portray. The question is, is it stereotyped enough that anyone else that reads it interprets it the same or similar way.
On the other side, that passage came out naturally for me. The scenario was laid out in my mind: Final dogfight between Joe and Lotus with the tone set by this song:
I knew what both characters would be thinking at that time.
All those pieces came together to allow me to make that passage.
...Unfortunately "normal day" scenarios don't come as naturally as things like exposition where I'm trying to explain something through dialogue or w/e you call that last random passage.
What I need right now is more solid ideas might make sense because my brain right now is cycling through the possibilities and I don't know what would be an effective scenario to develop their character in preparation for what they would be doing while making it seem natural.
@S1
sweet.
So is it going to be a week until you get actual internet hooked up to the house?
@ Sere
oh boy. well good to know he's awake at least.
And I'll bet he won't remember what it was that triggered his panic attack... if that is what it was.
