New to here, not new to Kirking

[original_fine]

Hi folks! My name is Kris. I've been playing Kirk (original flavor) for a long time. Well. 2009, really, when I realized Shatner needed more representation in the Trek RP world. Anyway, just heard about this game and thought it would be nice, after a hiatus.

I'm open to just about anything, RP-wise, though I'm also producing and acting (In a play. As Captain Kirk.) so I may be slow! You can find me on plurk at original_fine. My app is here.

I don't know what the typical IC opening salvo is, so let me know if there's something I ought to do to get Jimbo here up and running. AKA plot with me?

Thanks, everyone!

I'm in the same boat with the intro thingy too. Also, hi there! I love the idea of having a Shatner-verse Kirk in the TNG setting.

[original_fine]

Thanks, and hi! I love having Shatner everywhere, but I'm partial!

Hi!

It's Beth. I'm pretty sure we were both in Throne of Shadows together,

[original_fine]

Who'd you play? Because I was there from the beginning!

[just_be_quiet]

I play Erin White, the DC universe OC as well as Marion Scotts who is just an OC, plus the current new Trek Kirk.

[original_fine]

Ah, yes. Howdy!

[dreams_dont_die]

I'm so very, very amused by our collection of starship captains.

(Hi. I'm JK (ashavah, ashavah, ashavah. This here is my brand new starship captain but I have a few other folks here, too. Welcome to the game!)

[original_fine]

Ah, yes. My Jim has "known" many a Jack, in his RP day...

[ashavah]

He's a popular boy, Jack.

[original_fine]

As well he should be!

[dreams_dont_die]

Oh wow. I just took a look at your muselist, and it's amazing. Another M*A*S*H and Martha Jones player!

[original_fine]

Sadly, I don't get to play them a lot!

[dreams_dont_die]

In the last game I was in, I played Martha and Margaret Houlihan, but I haven't played either in years and years.

Hey Kris! It's Amber. sorceresses on plurk that I haven't been on in ages? We were in BN together for about five minutes? I keep meaning to RP Caprica/Gaius with you? Haha.

Nice to see you and I'm definitely excited to toss my Romulan lady at your Jim. ♥ (Although I would understand if he wouldn't be so enthused. I may have rewatched "The Enterprise Incident" last night.)

[original_fine]

Oh hey, he's always... enthusiastic.

And hi! Nice to see you again!

[defendergirl]

KIIIIIIIIIIIIRK. YES.

Welcome to the game!

[original_fine]

Thank you!

[writes_with_digital_ink]

...ahahahaha, hi!

Gaila is going to be so, so, so confused about another version of her ex-bf. SO CONFUSED. I cannot wait. :D

[original_fine]

Jim is okay with that. ;)

[asklepian]

THIS PLEASES ME.

Hi, I'm Famine--I've seen your journal about but I'm not sure I've ever played with you. c: But I'm excited to start!

[original_fine]

Hahaha. Well, Julian was my *first* thought to app. HI!

And we have played together. I'm the Sam who was in The Games for five minutes. Or one of them, anyway!

[heartofasun]

Nice to meet ya!I'm Kara (Caletara on plurk) and i can't wait to play with you!

[original_fine]

Hello! Nice to meet you.

[repositorian]

Kirk, oh goodness, Kirk. <3

I am all kinds of ready for the shenanigans that will happen having a different Kirk for Chekov. So ready.

[original_fine]

This is good for me, since I vastly prefer this Chekov to the original.

I'm beyond thrilled to see a TOS player around! There may have been giddy shrieking when Kirk's app came in. Welcome to Ten Forward, we're happy to have you here!

Most opening posts happen in Ten Forward, but if you'd like Jim to appear in some other area we are amenable to that. For characters not from the 24th century, they've been plucked from their canon points and dropped on the Enterprise by Q, so Jim is welcome to be as confused or annoyed by the sudden displacement as you see fit. We just posted a Welcome Post with additional links and info that may be helpful, and I'm more than happy to plot with you for something more specific if you want. I've got Picard, Geordi La Forge, and Guinan I can give you if you want any crewmen. :)

Never worry about being slow, we're very backtagging friendly here and happy to have you. I'm gabbynormal on Plurk, and would love to friend you.

[original_fine]

Yay, thank you! I will hit that welcome post like a captain chop.

Also, dude, I am interested in the reactions of ALL THREE OF THOSE GUYS to Jimbo. Guinan is the woman of my dreams.

[greystreetgabby]

I'm so glad we can agree on that count! Guinan is such an underrated character. She is by far in my top 5 favorite Trek characters, and that's including every Trek canon. I just hope I do her justice. ^__^;

[original_fine]

Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut

Guinan is the fucking reason I re-watch TNG. For the chance she might show up.

[ashavah]

Just incidentally, this sort of people loving the characters you didn't know anyone but yourself loved happens a LOT in this game, says the girl with the obscure Stargate pup.

[greystreetgabby]

And it's true, we LOVE Jonas! ^__^

[greystreetgabby]

Right? I always wanted more Guinan. Even as a kid, I'd get super excited when she'd show up in an episode.

[original_fine]

She's perfect. Let's do things.

[greystreetgabby]

Yes, let's! I'm picturing her pitted against Kirk, and it's making me laugh so much. :)

[spacefaring]

Remember how we said we should be in a game together some time...

Hi.
