[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Lord Windos]

Don't take this the wrong way, guys, but I find it sort of grimly and morbidly amusing that Nathan has become the Pariah of the group, a position that was formerly and solidly held by Ventus due to his dubious morality, intrusive pariona and phobias, and not very friendly approach to threats if unrestrained by others. I'm still scratching my head as to exactly HOW and when this paradigm shift occurred, since this seemed to have been a gradual process to my knowledge..... Honestly, it rather baffling, really.

It was gradual.  Nobody really built him up and helped him support the already shaky foundations he had at the start, so he just kinda fell down.

It started becoming more apparent after Corsage, and it's only gotten worse since.

Ah. Well, in the beginning Ventus vastly overestimated Nathan's own maturity/emotional stability and tried to be non-intrusive towards their issues after the first few times he was lashed out at for being overly nosey/worrying, so in retrospect I can see that Ven didn't really help all that much in building them up. Add in the constant arguments and conflicts the two have been embroiled in since the very start of the campaign, and that has only magnified the issues, hasn't it? I'm at least glad that conflict over the Daycare Secret is more or less over, and everyone has more or less adopted the mindset of 'live and let live' unless someone pisses on their cornflakes, or something.
