I believe that my appreciation for butts came some time during high school. Certainly my budding libido went all sorts of hay-wire in middle school, but an attraction to the butt of a girl didn't begin till high school when girls seemed a bit more inclined to acknowledge the perceived attractive qualities of their rear ends themselves. Some tweaks in style and volume of clothing shifted the previously dismissed area into focus with potentially enticing curves and the appeal of softness. As for why one might be attracted I feel as if there is a similar attraction in breasts. Barring sexual exploits of either part of the body, they serve little functional purpose for the man, leaving little purpose other than what we remember of them. Breasts, first and foremost are what many children are fed from in their early years, leading to an innate desire for them that lingers for some degree of time, never leaving in many cases. The butt, while more firm, possesses similar qualities to the breast; firm but pliable, warm, tender un-weathered skin. The butt also is very close to the vagina, which is the ultimate goal for many men's personal interactions with women whether they know it or not.
Ultimately, there is little to gain from the butt, but much to enjoy in a nostalgic sense. It is soft and nice to hold, and has an appealing, round shape that "looks right" because it is such a familiar anatomical structure.
I still cant dedicate any meaningful amount of time to the roleplaying section and all that, but I can read and such. However, There was an awkward idea I had while talking with an old DnD buddy of mine about a MPD character idea. Basically, his character idea was to have a mage who didn't cast the spells themselves, but the spells came off of randomized dice rolls. I took it one step further and said to have a person online, who was not in the game, decide when, or when not to cast a spell. We came up with all sorts of crazy ideas for how to make a mage in no control of their spells, but not stupidly random/dangerous for everyone and himself.
THEN I GOT THIS IDEA!!!
So this is how it works; We start out as a blank slate character, which I will start us up with in a blank "Generic being X wakes up and these are general surroundings". From there, every post will create and evolve the world and character. Little things will define who this being is; Let's break down an example sentance and see what it tells us:
"Shesaw a pair of soldiersoutside the window from whereshelay."
Exhibit 1: "She" means that we our character is a girl. Exhibit 2: She not only sees soldiers, but recognizes that they are soldiers. Why are they outside of her room and not guarding her? Are they prison keepers? Are they protecting her room from something? Exhibit 3: There's a window! What kind of window? Open, obviously, but what is it made of? Iron bars? Glass? Exhibit 4: She is laying down. Why? Is she on a bed? Is she being cared for? Is she retained?
From this type of scenario, we could gauge her reactions, her fears, or hopes for the situation. Does she realize where she is? Maybe she's in a small medical facility and is a high ranking super secret agent. Of course there would be allied soldiers guarding her! Maybe she is a prisoner to some evil overlord and is plotting her escape?! Maybe she doesn't know WTF is going on and woke up entirely clueless? The idea is to take the story in little steps at a time in order to advance the story slowly so everyone's input can be as meaningful as possible. Its more like writing a novel together than role-playing WITH each other. We will use this OOC thread to cheat however; Maybe Tewi has an AWESOME idea for what happens next, but she posted just a tiny bit ago! She could drop a hint here and Sustic could pick up that idea, but in his own style to make it even MORE creative and interesting. The idea is to keep each other thinking, but not fight each other. If you compete with each other, you're ultimately competing with yourself anyway!
Rules: 1) We're all pretty smart, so follow our general RP rules, yeah? 2) Your post can be as long and informative as you like, but you must accept whatever outcome following posts create. 3) Avoid posting more than once per two people. For example: [You, Person1, Person2, You] is what we're looking for. 4) Remember this is not only YOUR Character, but everyone's character. This is our baby! 5) Create, explore, discover. You build the world in addition to this character.
If there is interest for this, or we wanna make changes to the set-up before launching, lets hammer out the details here.
For those of us allowed to work in and build in Yumehime's creative planning zone, I have assigned colored wool to us for "scaffolds" that frame or outline planned ideas or areas. An example being on the northern side of Tsukuroya and in the road below.
Kaguya - Magenta Sakuya - Dark Blue Xadrow - Red
Anyone else will have their color for idea scaffolding assigned by me or Sakuya-chan here. This is so we can see at a glance who is working on what ideas. Remember to mark scaffolds with signs saying what they are/going to be so no one is left in the dark.
Im gonna Pull Marcus from the RP at least for now.
Work's been a bit too much lately, so sometimes I hardly feel like playing the other games I have. Today I spent the day throwing up and with shakes due to lack of sleep cuz one newest employee "Can't work because she's sick".
Until things actually get stable at work, I can't garuntee responces or attention, so I don't wanna hold yall back ;)
