Re: OOC - General Chat 03
@Author - I'm a simple person. I fail all the time at reading between lines, comprehension and inferrence. I need things to be explained. Otherwise I wont understand or more likely (and worse) will completely misunderstand, the things someone is trying to confer.
For example, I haven't the foggiest what "You have to overwhelm it," means. With words, logic, magic power, herself, the room?
So, I struggle with situations like this. Having my character isolated and thrust into a surreal situation without obvious direction (to my poor insight anyway) is very difficult for me. I spend literally hours (time I don't really have) writing each post I make, pouring over the previous posts and even previous threads for anything that might help. But even then, in the end it still all comes down to luck over judgement.
Because of this I really struggled with the scene at the stone slab and the dream-like sequence in the shadow temple. And I am struggling here too. I am very grateful that you are giving Willa the opportunity to have her own narratives from time to time, but there is a reason why she is 'simple'...and its not her low Wisdom stat. Its mine. I simply cannot write a character with more insight than my own.
Now this isn't some weird plea for Willa's life. If her actions lead to her death, that's fine. I just want you to understand that if I end up doing something incredibly stupid compared to what you had intended, it is not because I am purposefully throwing her under the bus, or testing you in anyway. It is just because I have no idea what the fuck I am supposed to be doing XD
