Howdy, everybody!
This will be my last post as Desperado. I'm retiring the character. I wasn't kidding when I said I was going to play him to see if I can like him again. I don't like him. And so, instead of forcing a lame-duck character on everybody, I'm putting him away, probably for good unless the mods need a scapegoat for something.
The Desperado was made when I was thirteen; ten years ago, for those who don't know my real age. Man, was I stupid then. I made him based on what I wanted him to do, not on who I wanted him to be. I have since learned that characters, good characters, are not made that way. I wish I had given more thought to the Desperado; he might have been a better person, and I might have enjoyed him far longer.
Ah, well, water under the bridge, as they say. Alex, I'm keeping. I love that character so much it's not even funny.
And I'ma cookin' up somethin'. ;D Not another OC (I'll probably never play one on an online RPG ever again, too much darn work), a Canon, but one who I hope will mesh with the site's feel seamlessly. You'll see, and I hope you'll like him.
To all those who believed in the character when I didn't, thanks. You know who you are. I actually know who you are, too, so don't think I'm just saying that. ;D

I too have seriously thought about retiring Sam. I lost muse for her and like you have for Des. I knew what I wanted out of her in terms of mutation and attitude, bet never thought of her future and what she would become. I've left other Xmen boards already because of this. When this board came back, I just couldn't give her up. This is where she was born and where she's growing up. I'm seeing things about her I never knew until the story evolves. I really enjoyed our RPs together and the short time they had together. It really helped develop Sam into a better character and me into a better writer. So thank you for allowing me to RP with you. You gave me a chance to grow her and I'll never forget that. Now, we'd better have another RP soon. I miss rping with you too. I can figure something out with Sam and Des later. She's got enough of her plate now.
