"More About Me"

[Mickey Mouse]

@Victor- You are a really nice guy, and I'm not only glad you join the website when you did but that you continue to make an impact both as a character and as a stable OOC individual. I hope you stick around for the long term, because you have that perfect blend of traits in a member that I like to see.

(although, for the record, Jon Snow never wrote not awesome posts in DA)

For your question, I considered the Doctor (from Doctor Who). Ultimately I swapped out to Proto Man when I realized it would be a headache to make the character work here, although there are some times when I regret making such a snap decision rather than challenging myself to write a character like that so radically removed from his element. That regret is what ultimately led me to be Shang Tsung, who I expanded from his canon in such a way to make him much like an 'anti-Doctor.'

My question for anyone -- What motivates you to write? And not just 'jus cause,' it has to be deeper than that.

@Proto Man, firstly, you're just great and someone I'm glad to consider a friend. Talking to you about the Omniverse or whatever is always such a pleasure. But: I absolutely admire the level of commitment you are able to give to your characters even when times are getting rough, RL-wise. You seem to always find a way to dig into a produce super awesome posts with Proto and Shang no matter what is going on for you otherwise, and that ability is something I envy, for reasons which lead me into my answer to your question:

Really and truly, the Omniverse is the only place I write nowadays. I've been on lots of different sites before, and even tried my hand at creating my own stuff, but that's all sort of fallen to the wayside what with life and everything. I come to the Omniverse and write with Mickey (or, nowadays, with Gadge) to sort of escape everything else that is going on in my life. I like who I am here, and what I am able to accomplish, and it gives me time to sort of sit on a separate brainwave than the one I'm on when I'm at work, constantly thinking about how to better myself as an actor and professional. Unfortunately, I don't always get to do that because sometimes the stress of my work day kills my vibe to write, but really even just being here takes me away sometimes and I really appreciate that.

My question for anyone: if you could have your character enter into a romantic plot line with any other character on the site, seriously, which character would it be?
