Floggy

Thank you. You don't have to apologize since you weren't informed. You don't have to shut anything down completely for me, and to be honest, I should deal with it IC, but this was a conflict I wasn't sure I could psychologically bear to escalate. That's all from me. The main problem of this post was touching, and you can return to discussing that. And while I was writing my previous post I completely forgot about the death of the author principle, since I wrongly speculated that OOC had bled into IC because of some messages. This was a mistake.

I am posting here because I am involved in this. I am playing one of Aleena Sovair's friends. I don't want to antagonize any player or character, but lately, the problem has become difficult to ignore. I don't think any rules were broken, and I did not look for round IDs in which the above problems occurred. My character was previously kissed on the lips by Aleena without consent, after which the character, most likely mistakenly, remembered it as a French Kiss when talking to other people. I understand that this is part of the character, and I have not had any problems with such IC roleplaying before. I can't say I'm one hundred percent okay with it, but I can confirm that when Sovair was asked not to do that anymore, she stopped kissing people that way. I'm posting here because I couldn't find Aleena's player on Discord. Aleena has a character arc, she's traumatized by her past experiences, but her behavior has crossed the boundaries of my emotional state lately. Again, I want to repeat that I think that no rules were broken and I do not want anyone to be punished as a result of my complaints. But I would like to point out some things that I would ask you to tone down. • Please give others time to play. Aleena often tries to get attention when she feels ignored. Unfortunately, I write and read slower than other players, and can’t always react to everything. Aleena often withdraws from a public conversation, followed by a private message urging her to spend time alone with her. There's nothing wrong with it if it happens occasionally, but lately, it's exhausted me. • Lower the emotional stakes. Aleena texts my character at random times, even when my character is busy with round activities such as antagonists, or roleplaying with other characters. Her messages have become very emotional and fatalistic lately. When such messages are used infrequently, this can be a good roleplaying tool, but I find it wearing me out as a player when Aleena does this with such frequency. Perhaps your character's roleplaying was so convincing that I thought it was an OOC problem. If this is not the case, I apologize, because I also find myself thinking that I don't know at what level the emotional manipulation occurs. I would love you to speed up her arc - it takes too long and makes people feel stressed. The feeling of stress is okay in an HRP environment, but making people play with a character with borderline NPD tendencies can be too much.
