How's My Driving?

H.M.D.?!
[I KNOW YOU'RE EXCITED!!]

How It Works:
[1] List your name and your characters for which you would like some feedback (use our handy form, if you like)!

[2] Please refrain from posting pictures, .gifs, videos, giant text, sparklies, blinking and moving tags, and &c. outside of collapsed threads. For the sake of our sanity and our load times. You are welcome to link to them in top-level comments, but otherwise please save 'em for collapsed threads.

[3] Open hands, await feedback and go forth and leave some polite thoughts, crit, questions, concerns, comments, suggestions, or any combination of the above for your fellow players about their respective characters. In this, we really encourage you to ask questions and get explanations about what has gone into characterization decisions. Communication is key. Find out what went into an action or decision and you may come to understand it better. Let's talk it out.

[4] Please try to be polite and constructive. Can't stress that enough, can I? Give suggestions and ask questions! Be constructive! But please also refrain from using "placeholder" comments. HMD isn't going anywhere, I promise!

[5] If you'd like, you can certainly list your personal HMD posts and contact posts over in the POLYchromatic Rainbow Pages directory.

[6] As per our community poll, Anonymous is off. We'd also like to request that sockpuppets not be used on this HMD. You are welcome to post a link to a personal HMD thread where Anonymous is allowed; these threads are your own lookout.

The form:

Y/N:</b> <b>Other comments?</b> Please refrain from posting pictures, .gifs, videos, giant text, sparklies, blinking and moving tags, and &c. in top-level comments

To the best of my abilities, I'll keep an ongoing and alphabetical list of everyone's HMD comments here below for your browsing pleasure.

I think I've already said what I think of your Estelle? If not, I like how brave you are with her. You get her out there and have stuff happen to her. She's not passive, as she shouldn't be, but I've seen her played that way. Or maybe it was just inactivity? Either way, I appreciate the difference I can see in your version of her.

She's pure-hearted and sweet, but has a dark portion to her, as others have mentioned. You make her lively and vivid with all of her emotions. It's a beautiful thing to see.

I don't know anything about Akane, but I like her, so that counts for something.

[firstaid]

Thank you for your comment. It's honestly really encouraging since I do kind of go on a limb with her and fear a lot of things ._.

But I'm glad you enjoy my version of her!

[oceantrauma]

You do, but it's fun, and it works, and it's still IC, far as I can tell. Her encouragement, her concern, her desire to heal - even emotional pain - it's all there, and it's all her.

[firstaid]

If it's fun, it works and it's still IC, then I suppose that's what matters. Mostly the fun and works part though. X3

I haven't tagged Estelle in a while to due to RL fails and I know nothing about her canon, but I've always loved tagging with her. You give her so much subtle spunk, and you make all of her tags fun to read! I fully plan on tagging you more when I get the chance.

[errandry]

Canon-bliiiind for Estelle, have yet to thread with Akane (I'm getting around to it, gdit)—but I really do have to say that I admire how involved you've gotten Estelle, how you try to put her out there for threads and CR and general plotting. You nail down the sweet-but-somewhat-geeky-princess air without letting it slip out of notice that she can be pretty reckless, and that she's far more than your standard healer trope.

And I am looking forward to Akane just 'cos she... does so much different with the same Nice Girl mold. THIS IS JUST A NOTE TO SAY IT, I GUESS.

[haring_to_go]

I think I've already said this to you in a plurk, but I have to say that one of my favorite threads in recent months was that fanfic post Estelle did. I loved how Liam and Estelle got into the story and the business side of things. It wasn't a place I thought the conversation would go, but it was a great thread.

Thank-you.

Raaaaaaine~ I do love your Estelle very much. I think you touch on many aspects of her and I love how she's not the damsel in distress all the time. You have her out there and active in helping others and like someone above said, you play her soft sweet side as well as her dark side well and keep them fairly balanced! Keep up the great job and I look forward to interacting with her more~<333

[dignity_misery]

I do not know the canon, but I have seen a few Estelle's around, and I am fond of yours because... she has some strength to her. (This is not to say the others were bad, I am sure canon point has a lot to do with Estelle's assertiveness.) I like that she tries to stand tall but still doesn't *really* understand what that entails.

[stopbleepingme]

Oh, I don't know her canon, but threading with Estellise via Minerva has been so adorable. She's got this really earnest and open attitude about her, but she also comes off as rather intelligent. I look forward to more!
