Okay.. Aang gang, Zuko, and Fire Nation Military peeps at Ba Seng Sei What's the plan? Will you be following the show linearly and going to the desert and the Library? (Perhaps meeting some of our spirits?) Aang Gang - If I understand correctly, the Aang Gang is in Gaoling and Zuko is on their trail. What's your plan afterwards? Fire Nation peeps, Azula and Mai.... what do we want to do? We're outside Ba Seng Sei.... in between Ba Seng Sei and the twin lakes and Serpent's pass probably. (My best guess).. What's our plan? Drill? And overall.. what's our collective plan? Do we want to try and have Ba Seng Sei fall like it did in the show? With Aang meeting resistance from the Dai Li and Azula and the girls sneaking in as Kyoshi and taking over from within? Or, since we have no Long Feng and I believe no Dai Li, do we want to do something different? Like.. having the Aang gang experence no problems, but Azula and the girls still manage a coup? Or do we still want Ba Seng Sei to fall? Perhaps it could be a defeat for the Fire Nation? Let's start discussing this so that we're good to go when the threads move. I know neither thread is moving very fast.. lets try and get them moving with ideas. Discuss All people involved.

Well, regardless of what the Fire Nation army is going to do, chances are, Gengoro and Tseng Wei are going to interfere into their plans somehow. Gen is still wanted from the Fire Nation army and Tseng doesn't really have any love for the Fire Nation now for not finishing the Avatar yet, so they are going to have a little fun.

Me--I say we hoist the red and black on the flag pole.
Gives an excuse for some FN characters to go around harassing various characters. Deserters, what few EK soldiers we have and the Rebellion to name a few.
Is there any sort of concrete information about Iroh's siege upon the city?
Not sure how we could go about invading the city. Maybe Ozai's Angels in Kyoshi garb infiltrate the throne while the drill is put in motion? Don't know much of what to do once they even get past the first wall.
And since we don't have a PC Long Feng, I don't suppose we can do something 'drastic' about our NPC Long Feng? *slides finger across neck*
Don't suppose Ozai's Kyoshis can take the place of the GAang in helping the Earth King then stab him in back or something?

Well, considering how Zuko's AWOL, the Gaang is gonna be awhile. However, I would still like to buy them a little time with some lead-up threads, if that's okay.
As for the siege itself, I was thinking it would fail, but Azula and co would just be using it as a distraction to infiltrate the city, anyway. However, ultimately I WOULD LIKE NOT TO PLAN EVERY STEP OF THIS. Let's not take the RP out of RPing and wing it. One of the problems with TRN, I think, was we planned far too much. Less plans, more improvisation.
In any event, I would say that we wait it out for a little while longer in the hopes that Zuko does something soon, and when the time

Well Muqali, the reason I started this thread was to hopefully get some interest back into the Aang Gang and Zuko's crew. I haven't seen a Gaang post for.. a good week and granted, I don't check your thread regularly.. I'm concerned you guys are at a stall so this thread is also to get your butts moving again. What's going on? How can we help get things moving?
I dunno what I can or can't do at this point, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm all set to attack Ba Seng Sei or at least move the troops close. Shall I send the girls after Zuko just to kill some time? Or perhaps the Aang Gang themselves? Like The Chase?
I agree.. I don't want to plan every move out. But I have no clue what to do right now.
If Zuko's AWOL .. Well I'd say take it to Xia and get her to step in; whether that be sending an email or opening the spot up..

I agree that something needs to happen. In any case, Muq, the rebels are in a sort of lead up thread, to waste some time, or it could be, anyway. If Azula gets involved, which for Hibiki's sake I hope not. XD
In any case Chammy, what did you have in mind for 'harassment' of rebels?

Jia:
The Gaang is basically waiting on Zuko. I'd talked to Zuko's mun a while back and she seemed interested in getting involved, but I haven't heard much from her in a while. If we get no activity soon, we'll get them moving to the library.
As for what Azula and the others will be doing, I had thought that the Kyoshi's may eventually an escape attempt or something, but that's up to Aden and I'm not sure if he scrapped that plan or not.
In any event, there's no point in starting the siege when no one is ready for it. As of right now, only the Rebels are available on the EK side, and that would make for an incredibly dull siege.
For now, everyone just have a little fun in your respective RPs until we can see what the Gaang's status is going to be.

Alright.. thanks for the heads up on the Gaang's status. I apologize if I sounded snappy, I did not mean to.

I like Jia's idea about sending the girls out to chase the gang or something. Even just to try and sniff out some rebels possibly. Plus it would be fun to sneak into Ba Sing Se and do some double-crossing.. Until somethings more concrete I'll just take my time replying to our current thread, though.

Yes, I speak frequently with Zuko and basically school is murdering her right now. And, while busy, she does feel really guilty for not getting to it. So, she'll post soon, I'm sure.
And, as far as plot-things go... I'm not picky. Sho's along for the ride!

-__- I'm not AWOL. I'm always here, but recently I haven't been able to stay for very long. As Midori said, I'm swamped with school, because I have AP Exams coming up this week. I've already started a post, but it's a bit long because I'm also NPCing Iroh and basically giving a brief review of what's happened to Zuko and his crew while following the Gaang. I've only been having time for my Kiran posts, because they go by fast.
And I agree with Muqali. Let's try not to plan EVERY STEP of this RP. I say it's a bit early to plan on what happens right now. All I know is that Zuko and the Gaang have a bit of a brawl first. THEN maybe we can decide what to do next. *shrugs* We just have to wait and see what happens. Also, Xun has PMed me and says that he wants to tail behind Zuko and attempt to capture him as Zuko follows the Gaang. *whew* I've been getting many recent requests from people saying they want to RP with Zuko, but there's no way I can RP with them all...

I'm not sure if this would help or not, but I've kind of wanted to get in on the seige with Gengoro and Tseng since Bora Gan is indisposed at the moment. What I can probably do for them is have them both be hired out as conscripts for the Rebellion side if maybe the Earth Kingdom army? I'm not sure if it would work.

If they come sniffing for rebels, we may be in the area. *shrugs* But we aren't exactly battle capable, so nothing would come of it except we'd be grumpy at you for imprisoning our characters. XD I'd wait awhile on that one.

^ ^ ^ ^ That's okay, so long as we get to harass the insurrectionists and traitors. Most of them shouldn't be that hard to find or use as bait if there are any in Ba Seng Se, since they have documents on everyone in the city and all.
If they wanna step up to the plate they're gonna take some lumps. >D

We'll step up to the plate after Hibiki learns to bat with the big end of the bat. ;D
