Attn. Everyone in the sword-fighting thread

[mi-guida.livejournal.com]

Hi guys,

I need some input on this one.

For whatever reason (which I really don't feel like going into now) War is still stuck in a fighting stance at the beginning of the thread while everything has moved on around her. I didn't manage to reply to comments directed at her before everything else swept on and now I'm not sure how to extract her.

Yes, I know according to the rules I should just pick up where I left off and post right at the end, but if I post right at the end now in response to stuff much further up it will not make any sense, and won't account for the fact that everyone else has done stuff around her.

The problem with this? War doesn't get geared up for a fight, issue a challenge and then go "oh, actually I can't be bothered". I wanted her to meet people, and she sort of has, but sort of not. Anyway, she's stuck there, and I have no idea how to get her out, or indeed how to handle meeting any of the people she's sort-of met there. There's too many posts to pretend she wasn't there at all, but I don't know what else to do*.

So, basically, any ideas are very welcome. If I'm totally honest, I feel stuck in the game now because she's stuck in this impossible position and I don't know how to get her out or how to then play her going forward, depending how I get her out.

Any thoughts?

*The best I've got is her waiting for someone to fight her, and then rolling her eyes (actually or metaphorically) and giving up when they all end up fighting/being inside (assuming that is where everyone ends up - I'm finding it a little hard to tell from the thread). That's not great, though, and doesn't get over the meeting/not-meeting issue.

Gabriel is currently a little distracted by watching Michael and Aziraphale but if War gets annoyed that nobody took her challenge and taps him on the shoulder, he'll definitely respond and may even accept her challenge. <3

Are Michael and Aziraphale not currently inside/just outside the house, though (I'm finding the moving a bit hard to follow)? Or is Gabriel where they started but still watching?

This is part of what I'm struggling with - even if I get over the very not-her thing of not jumping in, I'm not really clear who's gone where...

They had moved inside the house, but after Rose yelled at them they came back out. Gabriel was following, but at a distance, so by now he's probably not too far from War.

Thanks :)

I have posted - and be warned, War is pissed off... ;)

I saw. <3 Gabriel's more amused than anything else, though. Started a new thread because I hate when the threads are so long that words get smooshed up.

*nods* that's ok. I just wanted to reply to yours so I didn't get told off for posting in the wrong place!

Lol, aww, no, starting a new thread when it's all smooshed like this is fine as far as I know. <3

Starting a new thread when all's "smooshed" like that is fine and even officially int he rules by now, but taking care about where to post is very, very much appreciated as well! Thanks!
