How's My Driving?!

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


How It Works:
[1] List your name/nickname/handle and your characters for which you would like some feedback (use our handy form, if you like). Open hands, await feedback.

[2] Go forth and leave some polite thoughts, crit, questions, concerns, comments, suggestions, general feedback, 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.

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

[4] Please also refrain from posting pictures, animated .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.

[5] 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, if you so choose; these threads are your own lookout.

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

The Form:


To the best of my abilities, I'll keep an ongoing and alphabetical list of the HMD comments on this post here below for easy reference.

Are you ready for some teal deer? 'cuz I'm ready for some teal deer. Dinner's looking tasty tonight. /cracks knuckles

OKAY, SO. Gosh, where to even begin? We love on each other so much that it's hard to think of what I haven't already gushed at you about. I guess I can start with that: our OOC interactions. You are the sweetest, most accommodating and understanding person in the universe. Seriously. We were working on opposite time frames for the longest of times, but you still found time for my shenanigans and never once complained about how slow everything was (and still is, sob, those log tags are coming I swear). I simply cannot express in words how much this means to me. Time is something I never really seem to have enough of but you made some for me and I can't begin to tell you how wonderful that is to have in a castmate. And then there's your willingness to plot out silly things and your encouragement and the ideas you constantly contribute and have I mentioned yet how amazing you are? Seriously. No, seriously. Thank you.

Now, to start in on Ginny. My unfathomable love for Ginny. I love her. So much. Jo gave us this minor-major character with a significance in the story but without much presence or information but with plenty of room to grow, and you quite literally helped her grow. Reading your tags and getting this insider look into how you play her, you've taken her from this bare-bones character and completely flushed her out into something so deep and complex and beautiful in all those minuscule ways that make her real. She doesn't feel like the main character's best friend's youngest sister out of seven, but like a living and breathing person that's trying to deal with a terrible/amazing situation.

Which is where Ginny and poly come in. The way you display her development over her time spent here is some seamless between her time in canon, I almost feel like she was actually written that way. She's matured but she's still so warmed by home, still Ginny despite the years she's spent growing up without the people or even the world she was meant to grow with. I love how torn she is between missing home and wanting to stay here, especially in light of the things that have happened to her here (that I did not know about oh my god never leaving her alone again). The way she is flipping between mother henning and sibling rivalry is adorable, and Fred's banter with her is some of the most amusing and hilarious CR I have ever had the delight of having.

And that brings me to the final point I'm going to rant at you about. You've made playing Fred so much fun and heart breaking and creative and just all these beautiful amazing things that I never even dreamt of. I was sosoSO nervous to pick him up, halfway because he's such a minor character but also because I was so burnt out on poly from my time here with Sam, but this has been absolutely refreshing and exciting and new which is one of the greatest things I could've hoped for in playing a new character. Fred is all but overwhelmed by everything that's happening to him right now but Ginny is helping ease him through it and he couldn't be more grateful. He loves his little sister almost as much as I do. Almost.

So, to stop breaking LJ and life and looking like a complete and utter dor, I will end this with the utmost of my affluence. Jskdgwiauhekauebdiuwkeua I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU ARE INCREDIBLE AND AN INSPIRATION AND JUST MAKE MY LIFE SO HAPPY THANK YOU ;_____________; <33333333333 ♥

... so, I. Literally have no words for this comment because... sob I am so speechless and I may have almost cried - just... so, so touched and humbled and you are too much wonderful all at once. Thank you so, so much. This really does mean a lot to me, every word, and I've already given you a ton of love since your first email about apping Fred and I will continue to give you love because you deserve it and more. I adore playing Ginny, and she will always be held in a special place in my world and heart, and you've made that experience of writing her even more fulfilling. It means a lot that you like the direction I've taken her and her development in the City without being sent home has always been a concern for me because it's so easy to get away from her canon self so I'm so, so relieved that it's working for you.

Thank you thank you thank you so much. You know I will always backdate and write with you forever, timezones and schedules be damned, and thank you for being so patient and always giving back beautifully-written tags. Writing with you has made me a better writer, I'm serious. ♥

LMAO Ellie, you are just so amazing, how do I even. It works because you make it work. You are such a wonderful writer and I could honestly read your work all day and be thoroughly content with life. And this is through no interference of my own! ♥
