Goddamn your Apathetic Asexual Men for attracting me and then not being interested.

I'd quite like to get some setting info on your latest (as-of-yet unnamed) quest. I find elements of it intriguing, but other parts confound me. It is not at all similar to the west-coast street scene, and it seems similarly dissimilar to the east-coast scene. Are we in Europe? The presence of magic implies that we deviate from reality in some ways; is the whole world different?

>>316686
I seem to cause that reaction irl. Sorry to bring you bad news, but your affections are most likely to be seen as mildly amusing, and nothing more. Bummer, ain't it?

>>316689
The city is rather small, as far as cities containing skyscrapers go, and the bad part of town is actually a smaller and a bit more run-down area.

The gangs play territory wars and deal with drugs, but what they do in particular is entirely dependent on who's running the show. For instance, LSA is one gigantic black market.

I have never heard of 'West Coast' or 'East Coast'. It's actually based heavily on a multi-cultural Canadian crime syndicate the news had been all over two or three months ago, and various places in BC.

I have no idea where it takes place. I suppose Canada, since that's the inspiration point.

>>316692
Oh, furthermore, there's a small difference between this world and the real one. Small things like the existence of magical objects and a few others later to be decided.

It is also ~the future~.

>>316692
"East Coast" and "West Coast" refers to the coasts of North America, which have markedly different gang cultures. East coast tends towards profit-oriented stuff. They have comprehensive structures. They're more subtle and generally avoid getting into a tussle with the cops. West Coast gangs are folks like the Bloods and Crips. Money is not super important, respect is. They're more violent and wear their colors. They don't worry about spending a few years in lock-up. The Mexican drug cartels go to both coasts. They're structured like East Coast gangs, vicious like West Coast ones. I know nothing about your Canadian gang.

Wherever you go, there's hired guys who work freelance, specialize in doing certain things. Guys who just straight-up specialize on killing folks like traditional assassins are generally high-class guys, working for politicians and businessmen.

As a general rule, modern gang stuff gets more and more chill the further north you go, and there's more going on in big cities than little towns. Probably because there's more by way of pot profits in the southern ends of the coasts.

Not a real issue, but I'm thinking we're probably looking at a gang further south than Canada. I'm thinking more west, but I don't really know. The slang is, I'm sure, made up whole-cloth, so nothing matters there.

>>316693
Sounds good. Any major developments we'd be interested in? Keep in mind that we're mostly fa/tg/uys, so we're totally cool with far more detail than any reasonable person would care about.

Let me know if I'm being a gigantic faggot and imposing on the story you want to tell, by the way, I just like to work on settings~

This thread has an excess of tildes.

I love it~

>>316698
Oh, I see. The gang culture is more made up, but with some basics as taken from gang behavior; such as someone who manages to leave a gang being killed if they take a step on the gang's territory ever again.

The assassination organization E belongs to is indeed almost entirely made up of orders from politicians and businessmen. There are quite a few others though.
The police involvement came in during a case where the person they had been hunting for a long time was taken out. In exchange for keeping the organization secret, they get to hire from them.

Of course, the organization has smaller branches other than just the city. The law enforcement in those places have no involvement with the organization. It's pretty dangerous work there.
E has it pretty damn easy.

Then there is also the Newbies. Exactly as the name implies, a new cop. They have the problem of not being informed of the alliance. The hitmen are also not allowed to kill cops. Meeting a Newbie is like stepping in a pile of dog shit in your bare feet.

It's best to treat this as a fantasy setting, of course. Maybe not to treat it as Earth at all. Hell if I don't have a habit of saying 'fuck it' and putting in random things.

My personal goal: Turn Euthanasia bi or homosexual.

>>316841
Espeically for babyfaced teen boys who like to look like girls. :3c

My personal goal: TOM x MARIA <3

My tablet is officially fucked over, so all quests on hiatus until it's not.

Because I can never get on at the same time as Cen, HERE YOU GO.
I must have had this for a month.

Shotas, lack of vision, and hitting on teenagers returning soon.

>>319748
YES. TOM x MARIA. FINALLY.

ilu p5

>>319748
I wish your tablet luck, P5. I look forward to more of Maria's hair-pulling after we tell her to princess beam her problems away.

>>319749
Also you need to show up in #fiveohfive sometimes.

Princess Quest on not-hiatus because I was like 'fuck it like anyone even CARES if it's vectored'. The art style between my vector art and PQ art is similar so there's that too.

Celebrations!

Since I fucked up the original pretty bad (in various ways), I've decided to restart 5 Project where it's not crappy.

Concerning this;

-I've predrawn a map with plot and timing notes, and while there are many familiar areas, there is also some that were not in the original story.

-There will be characters you haven't met yet, and characters from the original may not appear. They might also have different personalities and motivations.

-You can skip almost the entire plot if you don't explore.

That's pretty much it. Have fun!

>>320544
As long as this means Eleven is no longer asexual and we can make him blush more often, I'm fine with it. :3c

>>320544

Four? Four, please. Four. Four.

This doesn't mean we will get less PQ does it? Also you should hang out in #tgchan as well, some of your readers are only in there.

I usually just run both when I'm updating. They're in the same style, why not.

Being able to draw very quickly helps too.

This isn't going to get confusing at all!

Also I made you another wiki page P5.

>>320713
It is the artist's way to do as he or she pleases and it is the wikifag's duty to cope with it, young padawan.

>>320714
Oh I know. I wasn't mad. If anything it amuses me.

OKAY OKAY I'M BACK SORRY I'll start posting again

I have the worst track record ever for suddenly vanishing over the span of a week seriously

>>322024
I am just glad you keep returning. It makes me glad.

I wish Brass and Jet would return...

>>322024
That image makes me lol. Also that seems to be the norm for around this time.

>>322024

Welcome back!

>>322024
lol @ Maria's face. x3c

so

discontinued quests

you like those right

O_o

What...?

>>325330
Nah, that's just a myth. No one likes that.

Well at least we got one Princess Beam off.

>>325330
We become disappoint at discontinued quests.


Do not make us disappoint.

I'm forced to cancel all quests due to my access to plotting and my ability to multitask both being taken away from me.

Except Princess Quest because I was bullshitting it anyways. Did you know there were supposed to be mountains to the southeast? I didn't!

>>325338
I am sad

no boobdemon.dll

>>325338
I am saddened and hope your freedom comes at some point. Followed by more quests.

>>325338

May I ask how said abilities became taken away?

>>325339
>Except princess quest

I lost access to my plot maps due to all my files being on a computer that was disposed of.

Also I'm lazy.

I suppose I could put 5 on halt since I am pretty sure I had the map on paper though. Somewhere.

New quests are fun. How do you feel about Alice in Wonderland?

>>325348
A quest is a quest. Plot maps? That sounds like planning. Quest authors don't plan!

Tru dat

the ONLY thing you can get away with planning is back-story since it happened in the past.

>>325349
No, actually, planning a basic outline of what will happen when can do a lot to increase the verisimilitude of a quest. Having plans ensures the quest author will always have something for you to do, which is a good thing. You can bet your ass the events in Journey or Ruby Quest were planned, for instance.

Plot maps are just the framework for what everyone's doing while you're running around doing nothing of consequence. 5's got a long, overarching plot, but it's mostly about breaking a little girl out of a facility and you can skip the entire thing in a quick run. Also, y'know, a map.

There's also character notes just in case everyone decides the NPC should totally be in the party. Better safe than sorry.

As long as Tom x Maria is still going down I'll survive :>
