Sorry for not posting in a while, everyone. Been experiencing a bout of writer's block. Just in case you were jumping to conclusions that was eaten by a yeti or something. Nothing that interesting, I just suck.
I'll try to get something posted soon.

Please hurry, it's been a 'long' time.

Hey, guys! I'm finally accepted as my character for this plot, Senzu. So would anyone like to tell me when would probably be the best time for me to begin posting? Lol

^ I'll bring it to somebody's attention. I mean, I don't see how there couldn't be room for Bumi. We need more Resistance members anyway, our FN to EK ratio ain't so hot right now.

Kyozuki and I were thinking that the Fire Nation and Resistance could have a temporary truce now that Kugi's daughter has been attacked. I think something big would need to happen for these two groups to work together. A situation requiring both of our water benders to heal might be nice in order to give them something to do that no other character can. I might have Kugi gravely wounded to spur this on.

Also, I think we should make the situation dire enough for the Fire Nation to be willing to negotiate Bumi's release. Kugi would probably do it if his daughter's life was at stake but if we could find a way to motivate Xian to do the same that would be great.

Sorry about being so flaky lately.

How do you guys think we should do Akane's attack by Dosu and the kidnapping of the Tang kids by the resistance? Should they happen the same night for the sake of speed? That way Xian and Tang will be on the same page at the same time wanting to bust out Bumi.

Should the resistance call both Captains together and use the lives of the people they care about as currency? I'm sure they don't want anybody to die but they can bluff like they're ruthless.

My vote is on whatever keeps pacing smooth & players involved.

Combining the two would certainly help speed things along - hands up all those who forget to take into consideration how long a multi-person RP takes to play out. *raises hand*

I thought I should give Dosu some foot soldiers so how do the rest of you feel about some fodder for your characters to fight?
Also, I'll get Dosu walking around the shopping district so he can run into Akane.

How should we proceed with the resistance saving Akane and breaking into Kugi's? Should Xian get the news before he goes to Kugi's and the resistance breaks in? What about Akane saying something about Xian while poisoned so the resistance knows she has a connection to him?

Just as long as he get the two Captains working together to bust out Bumi and get him in.

So.... just a quick check with the resistance members... who's intending to post before the kidnap and who's waiting for me to post the beginning of said kidnap? There's a bit of leeway, since it'll probably take all of two posts to get from the start of the mission to the point where we need to wait for Tsubaki to be in bed, unattended, and Suigetsu's still a little way off from that point.

Okay, well, you guys are in position with Akane — Haru & I have gotten that going. Azei is about to be informed of her poisoning. That sets the stage for some bargaining..
