The IC Critque Meme!

[inconstantly]

Have you ever wanted to tell your fellow COST recruits what you think of them without consequence? Does their cavalier attitude toward murder, or lack of any critical thinking skills, or naive optimism cause frustration? Or is it something even more minor that really irks you, like that your roommate keeps borrowing your clothes or your friend won't use punctuation when they type?

WELL THEN--

THE LOWDOWN
• Post a header with your character's name.
• Comment in-character to other people's headers. With what? Depends on your CR! Maybe they're a good person and really should keep on keeping on, maybe literally everyone can see they need to suck it up and confess already, maybe they'll change their wicked ways if just one extra person casts aspersions on their pompadour. Bring in examples if you want, as with any helpful critique. Be as creative as you like!
• Other characters will comment to yours, no doubt overflowing with well-meaning advice on how to be the best person they can be. Your character is free to respond. Excuse you, maybe despair is still in fashion??
• Feel free to assume there's a compulsion to speak their minds if your character's not usually the type to give unsolicited advice.
• A probably unnecessary reminder, but just remember, this is not a place for OOC crit! There are other, more appropriate channels for that.

Ur goddamned commander

This is the part if any of you were getting paid, she'd dock your pay.

[pointedlook]

You'd make a killing as a dominatrix, in case you ever consider retiring or getting a side gig.

[byfist]

I shall consider it. It has been mentioned before as part of my 'reduce emotional capacities'.

[pointedlook]

You'd be reducing some emotional capacities and enhancing others to a peak, most likely.

Can't say there'd be much in the way of mental capacity once you really get started on someone.

[lefthandfree]

sometimes i think we’d be okay friends
but also i don’t know that you really care for having those.

you’d definitely benefit from having some though. probably. you always look like you need more fun in your life, anyway.

[byfist]

I have been advised to include more 'fun' into my regiment.

I should be able to schedule it in after lunch, but not for more than twenty minutes.

[prizeneck]

Think you should be around more.

[byfist]

I am around you. Constantly.

You just can't see me.

[prizeneck]

So that's who it was.

[byfist]

I take pride in leading from amongst my men.

Unfortunately my face is recognisable.

[prizeneck]

I get it. Working backstage tends to be underappreciated.

Still wouldn't hurt to give the kids a nudge or two.

[byfist]

'Do not die'.

Does that suffice?

[prizeneck]

I would add a "or else", just to spice it up.

[byfist]

Oh, of course.

And if you do, we cannot retrieve your limbs from a Araneans stomach, so we won't have anything to send home.

[prizeneck]

[Oh my god he's finding that funny. Congrats, Commander, you're making him chuckle.] See, think that works just fine.

[byfist]

[success]

Shall I send this message along to all recruits?

[prizeneck]

Please do.

[thunders]

Nice eyepatch.

[byfist]

I thought it gave me a certain... Style.

[raisedbybirds]

The transparency is appreciated. [in so far as what COST can offer, she does appreciate.]

[byfist]

We do our best. We have no reason to hide the truth of our fight.
