Community Spirit

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

I must agree with Demyx that community spirit has been sadly lacking here for some time. I believe it would be most beneficial to arrange some sort of event which could help build bridges across the various gaps which have evidently opened up recently; I am aware that Zack is arranging some kind of Secret Santa Yuletide event, but perhaps we could have some fun even sooner? The antisocial behaviour of some of the members here disappoints me greatly.

How about we arrange a Rat Race?

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry?

[shinra-sucks.livejournal.com]

You should be. Vermin like you are responsible for the spread of many diseases.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

I'm...not vermin...

I thought we covered this before?

[shinra-sucks.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but the fact is that you're essentially a rat, and rats are bad for everyone's health.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Your attitude is exactly the kind of thing which I'm trying to abolish.

[shinra-sucks.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah? Good luck, Angelina Ballerina.

Hey, I'm all for socializing. My life has been busy but if it will help people in other universes get along? Count me in.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Glad to hear it.

[kicktothebeat.livejournal.com]

That was...actually just a joke, but the point stands!

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry... I thought you knew the man who was dancing.

[kicktothebeat.livejournal.com]

Well, I do. They'd never really dance, that's why it was funny...they'd really benefit from it if they did, though! ♥

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

I suppose they would, yes.

[kicktothebeat.livejournal.com]

You know anyone like that?

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, several. There's one, a knight called Steiner... the mere thought of him dancing is enough to make me laugh.

[kicktothebeat.livejournal.com]

Does he wear clanky armor? Clanky armor is an awesome dance aid.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Yes, he does! Oh, my... I can just picture him dancing about in that unwieldy armour of his. =^_^=

[kicktothebeat.livejournal.com]

It keeps the rhythm!

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

I imagine it would! =^_^=

[chaos-component.livejournal.com]

I'm in. I'd like to know who exactly I'm speaking to in this community.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Yes, there are a few... unpleasant characters around.

[worldsnicestguy.livejournal.com]

what sort of "socializing event"?

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I'm not quite sure; what could we all contribute to in order to make this a more friendly place?

[worldsnicestguy.livejournal.com]

Would the fact that I'm an Emperor count as my contribution? 'Cause, you know, that's pretty cool...

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Um... you'd probably have to actually do something first.

[worldsnicestguy.livejournal.com]

huh. *ponders*

[doublehelixhero]

Er... I dunno... I like meeting and talking to people.

But this social-whatever thing sounds kind of... formal. :/ I don't like formal stuff. It's boring.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's a shame. Have you never been to a formal ball or dinner dance?

[doublehelixhero]

Yeah, I have. I had to wear some stupid getup that was hot and itchy and uncomfortable. And then I had to sit and listen to people talking about boring stuff like politics for, well, a couple of hours. I don't really remember how long it was, 'cause I fell asleep.

Maybe if the formal stuff's not so... uncomfortable, I'd like it more.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh my. Obviously the life of a diplomat is not for you. Perhaps when we rebuild Burmecia, you could come to one of our balls?

[doublehelixhero]

Nah, I'm more of a hero myself. Oooh, a ball! That sounds like fun! I'd love to come.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh, I am glad! =^_^= Yes, you shouldn't be under the impression that all formal meetings are dry and dusty affairs; I've been to many a ball, and they're tremendous fun. The outfits, the music, the dancing... I'm sure we could accomodate such a lively person as yourself.

[doublehelixhero]

Really? I guess I've just always gone er, been forced to go, that is to the dry ones. :D I like music.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's never any fun going to something you don't want to. I'm not surprised you got bored.

[dudeinred.livejournal.com]

You think bringing this group all together in the same room is gonna inspire peace and harmony? A blood bath, more like.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Well... with certain safeguards, of course. And we don't necessarily all have to be in the same place, either. Perhaps we could all contribute towards a project on here somehow?

[seekingtofind.livejournal.com]

I have only been here for a few days, and already I can see some really disappointing behavior...I think it would be a good idea to do something to make the community more friendly. Did you have any ideas?

I have not had a chance to meet you yet, my name is Syaoran.

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Pleased to meet you, Syaoran. I am Freya Crescent of Burmecia.

I was thinking perhaps a group project; I'm not sure. Drawing a picture of our worlds, maybe? My drawing skills are not fantastic, but it would be entertaining.

[seekingtofind.livejournal.com]

I'm not a very good at drawing either. But I think doing something would be a good idea. It would give a chance for the new people to meet everyone.

[slash-eye.livejournal.com]

*delurks* Community spirit? Lacking?

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

Um... yes.

[slash-eye.livejournal.com]

Mou, didn't even notice. ^__\\;;;

[ninelivesbaby.livejournal.com]

Well, I've been trying to make friends. Even though that's not normally my thing. What kind of community thing were you suggesting?

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

I was thinking perhaps of a group project, or... hmm. I have an idea. Please excuse me, I must post it.

[ninelivesbaby.livejournal.com]

Group project? Like making something? ...That could be fun. ^^

[bluepaw-dragoon.livejournal.com]

On further discussion, it would seem there may be a meeting on my world. I shall let you know of any further details.

[ninelivesbaby.livejournal.com]

Okay, cool. ^^
