Really? We don't want to disobey her wishes and we promise we make sure it won't be inappropriate. We find it easy to do the relationships in rpg's because we are all in acting classes. I have to kiss a guy I hardly know in a play I'm in at school. We just didn't want you to be uncomfortable and if it rises to a level like that we can totally stop.

I'm arranging to just do a stage kiss so I don't actually have to kiss him. That's reserved for my boyfriend only. ;) and yeah sure! I was gonna say if you didn't know how to work it in you could start now, maybe by having Sandra walk in on them or something and when she sees what Mark has gone through all the feelings can come out, much like Kelsey.

Hey, guys. Just popping in for a bit. I shall not try to intrude this time, that always goes soooo well. So yeah, I kinda had a question for y'all. Since you guys write all this medical drama, and you Carrington, got that medical book, (yes, I stalk just a bit), I thought you might know a bit of something to help me with my own book, it's a new one, not the one Carrington probably immediately thought of when she read that. :-P But I had a character get shot. It's in a survival setting though. No hospital. So suggestions on treatment? Something realistic, yet still pretty dramatic. I know you guys could do it, so I came to the most experienced people I know.

Once below his chest and slightly to the right, and once in the lower leg. With a pistol, probably just a "standard" caliber. Survival setting being in a small cave, equipped with a cot and a few food items, and some towels other living necessities but not a hospital setting at all.

Why not? I need the challenge anyways since I'm having really bad writer's block with my current book. Besides, that bit you wrote about Mark's home coming was great. I can hardly wait to see what you're going to do when Sandra realizes she truly loves Mark and has to watch him fight for his life, and when Dylan finally gets the courage to tell Kelsey he loves her and Kelsey finally lets go of the past. Besides, once you add those parts I can see what your standard for appropriate is so that way I don't offend the rules.

Yeah but we have SOOOO much to write before we get to the point we're at now. It's rather intimidating actually. It's taking some getting used to seeing Mark's character when he's better.
