Goodbye;

[lifewithoutrest]

After nearly a year and a half here, this wasn't an easy decision to make. But I've already put it off longer than I should have. I've loved being in this game. I've loved the CR and the people. But this game has gone through so many changes over the past several months. It's grown and it's changed, and I haven't been able to change with it. So I think it's time to cut Helen loose.

I have a couple open threads still, and I'd love having opportunity to finish them before making my final exit. But if you'd rather let them drop, I completely understand.

After being bounced back and forth a couple of times, she prepared for this, even if she didn't really want it to happen. Arthur gets custody of her cat. Sorry, his name is still William. Make sure he goes to a good home. Also, she would have left a note somewhere it'd be easily found, just in case. Using material from the city in the hope it wouldn't vanish with her. Basically just how much his friendship has meant to her and a loving reminder to take good care of Alfred and Alice because he has a wonderful family and he should hold tight to that.

Okay. I think I'm done. I'm terrible at goodbyes.

Take care, Ruby City. It's been memorable.

-Ashley

Canon updating

[seeyousuffer]

Hello! Just to let everyone know, I am canon updating Kirei Kotomine, just by a matter of a few days, so of course he's won't be that different--

Ha ha, no, just kidding. As a matter of fact, there are a few changes involved, which I will detail here:

-Kirei was shot in the heart and was brought back to life by a magical evil chalice, so he is now basically a walking corpse with a fake heart made of black mud that contains all the evils of the world. If you think your character would be able to sense this, they're welcome to. It's--not exactly subtle.

-Kirei, instead of trying to be a good man as he was previously, has embraced his true nature and now freely takes pleasure in everyone's suffering. He smiles more, and he knows how to have fun.

-He loves mankind! No, really, he does. He loves all people. It's just that he loves them best in the final moments before their death when they're struggling to survive, so he wants all of them to die. Not that he feels any need to rush matters where that's concerned.

-He's a lot more unpleasant now, so if you'd prefer he not tag your character, that's not a problem at all. I will provide content warnings whenever necessary. Also, if you'd like him to do something unpleasant to your character, that can be arranged. Or if you have a villain who Kirei could team up with, that could work, too! Feel free to contact me via journal PM. I'm very open to plotting things.

Kirei will be gone for a few days while he's away having adventures in horribleness, but I'll be catching up on backtags during that time.
