I know this post is old, but I'm glad you have it-- I hope it's alright if I get you in here, despite that.
I'm really enjoying our thread, but I' having a lot of trouble coming up with interesting or communicative replies for you, because your responses are so sparse and short. If they were communicating via a computer network, where almost all of the information would be "dialogue" then there wouldn't be a problem, but since this is a narrative thread taking place in-person, I'm left feeling like I'm carrying all the weight of the action. Even after this many replies, I don't know anything about how your character looks, moves, their general tenor, or the state of their person, except that you're as unwilling to give his personal details away as he is.
I can see that you've played him in a lot of places, I'm sure you've come up with a lot to think about, in how he is and does, and what he thinks and prefers. Don't hide all that expertise away! Show it in your writing.
Could you please write more for me? I like your character so far, I want to hear more.
Sure, no problem! Admittedly my RP style does tend to be pretty dialogue-focused, especially in threads like this where the characters are just sitting around and talking, but I never want to make people feel like they don't have enough to go off of in response. I know there's sometimes a pretty thin line between getting a tag that's short and concise but still easy to respond to and getting one that just doesn't feel like enough, so if you ever feel like I'm straying towards the latter with you again, let me know! I'll edit a bit more into his latest reply right now.
