New user + new character?

[kaihentai]

Hello new friends! I'm Icki and I am picking up Tatsuma Sakamoto from Gintama here at Haven, and I am both completely new to this website as well as to this community so if I seem a bit technologically challenged I totally apologize. There are so many amazing characters here that I am super excited to be playing with you all!

Sakamoto is kind of an absurd optimist with absolutely zero filter, and kind of a product of the super ridiculous series he's from. He's a lot of fun to play but I'm picking him up after a few years, so I am afraid I might be a little rusty. My plurk is fartbunnies but I recently signed up for it and I am still struggling to figure it out. Feel free to hit me up and chat! It's nice to meet you all~!

Sakamoto is also in room #4.001~! I apologize in advance, he's going to be a pretty loud and annoying roommate. ;-;

Welcome to both Haven and Dreamwidth, Icki! I'm Beech and I play Hinata (particularity) from Super Dangan Ronpa 2 here, as well as Elliot Nightray here who just got in.

I know some...of Gintama but yeah not enough to be reliable. Either way!

4.001 is really shaping up to be a really loud room, given Elliot is going to be there as well... so I look forward to playing with you!

[kaihentai]

Ah Dangan Ronpa! My roommate is super obsessed with that series but I am only familiar with the characters from the first game. Still, Hinata is the nice one right? Right????? I have no clue. I just call the entire franchise "damn it ron paul" let's be real here ok

Ahhhh, how much? Sakamoto doesn't appear very frequently so if you don't know much about the series you're likely to have missed him. It's a shame really! He's probably one of the friendliest characters from the series.

Oh no. I feel so bad. Sakamoto's roommates are going to hate him LOL <3

Elliot is from...?

[rebind]

LMAO well Hinata's certainly rather blunt and such but he's a nice guy. you gotta be understanding to be the dr2 protag.

jeez uh I watched/read Gintama in fact...years ago so I'm sure I am super mega behind.

oops and sorry, Elliot's from Pandora Hearts! he yells a lot but it's cool he means well...deep down.

[3d2y]

omg yes i love gintama

i'm CAPS and i only play luffy! he's an absurd optimist too they'll have a lot of fun

[gimmicks]

hello icki! :D i'm lena, and i play some losers (this guy from ohsc, izumo (tamer) from ane, and miyamura (miyamura) from horimiya) AND I'M EXCITED FOR SAKAMOTO despite being canonblind... i hear... some crazy things about gintama lmaklsdja 8DD

[kaihentai]

GOOD FOR YOU DO YOU KNOW HOW EXCITED I AM HELLO usually when I app at places without Gintama casts nobody has any idea what is going on

Ah yaaaay! They'll be friends I know it~! I am pretty sure Sakamoto will really like Luffy.

[kaihentai]

AH YAY I am happy someone knows who it is! It's nice to meet you and yes it's pretty crazy I am looking forward to playing here!

[kaihentai]

Uhhhh true.

Ah, that's ok! It's good that you're familiar with the series. In addition to being absolutely hilarious it has some really heartwarming moments and a great cast.

Yelling is fine! Sakamoto is super loud~! So yelling is ok!

[gimmicks]

HE WILL BE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR IN ALL THIS WOE

[kaihentai]

TO BE HONEST THAT'S WHY I APPED HIM HERE He's just going to be sunny and kind and optimistic about everything. Like he's always smiling and cheery and lovely in canon so if the author ever draws him like crying or sad I will probably actually cry...

also in canon we never really see him down at all even with the recent flashback arc he appeared in... ARE YOU CAUGHT UP WITH THE MANGA FRIEND sakamoto reappeared I was so excited?

[3d2y]

GINTAMA IS GREAT THEYRE MISSING OUT .....

yes theyll definitely get along!! and enable each other to go to crazier new heights .... luffy will find sakamoto hilarious tbh

[gimmicks]

SOBS SADLY i am canonblind... i just know of him from word-of-mouth!! ;; but i am so so excited bc yes, need more happy sunshine babies

[kaihentai]

UH YES

OMG THANK U BLESS U LUFFY THAT IS CUTE these two are going to be great friends!!!

[kaihentai]

Ah really! Curiouuuus~! From where? Yes! Sakamoto is a super inappropriate happy sunshine baby but he is one~! <3

[miyamura]

...that icon

and i've a few plurk friends who were very thrilled about your app! :D

[kaihentai]

AH HOW VERY LOVELY <3 I super super super wish I knew how plurk worked because I am so confused???? Like I have one but I am 100% lost! Do they play here?

And that's exciting because the sample intro post I had for him is essentially basically word for word what I am going to use holla

[tamer]

ohgosh no i know what you mean, it's pretty intimidating at first! but i believe in you! ;; and i would love to friend you~

and yes they do! specifically, the alvin (from tales of xilia) and minato (from persona) were very excited for you!!

HAHA you are ready!!

[expendablepride]

SCREAMS INTO THE SUN

I am one of the people Lena was talking about. My friend and I (who also plays here) flipped all sorts of shit when we saw your app ahhhh. We played Gintoki and Zura for a long while, and Gintama's super close to our hearts and is this even real life???

GOD WHAT AM I DOING. HELLO ICKI!! I'm Pris! I have just met you and I already love you, oh my god. I play Alvin from Tales of Xillia, and HE IS A ROOMIE JSFHKJKHSJKDFH

I am so sorry for this lack of coherency, I am way too thrilled to be making proper sentences and words ahhhhsdjf kh

[kaihentai]

OH MY GOODNESS WELL HELL-FUCKING-O I HOPE I DON't DISAPPOINT?????????????? you should app Zura or Kintoki here *coughs* No that is super lovely~! Have I ever played with you before? I know a lot of other Sakamoto players from way back when because there weren't very many of us playing him like 3 years ago. Ah I am super excited!

IS HE REALLY OMG

"Ahahaha! Alvin! Aren't you supposed to be a chipmunk or something?" ideeeek you will probably get tags along that sort of punchline

THANK YOU FOR BEING EXCITED WHEN I USED TO PLAY SAKAMOTO TBQH NOBODY KNEW WHERE THE FUCK HE WAS FROM SO THANK U ALSO GINTAMA IS A WAY OF LIFE?????????????

[kaihentai]

YAY <3 I'm really jazzed! I just... Hope I don't disappoint people?!?! WAH usually nobody knows where he is from so I can like totally play with no expectations and end up surprising people because characters from Gintama are just absolutely 100% ridiculous

AW NO WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE EXCITED I DON'T EVEN AHHHHH THE PRESSURE no but things will be good!

My plurk is fartbunnies! friend me plz i am 100% confused

[miyamura]

LMFAO NO I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN i'm like this with my obscure canons too!! and then when people read their canons i'm like SHIT. PRESSURE.

no no no you'll be amazing i'm sure~!

ADDS YOU :D

[expendablepride]

crying the sad thing is I did have Gintoki here for like... a day before I realized having him here was a Bad Idea and dropped him sdflhjksdj I am a colossal idiot. Your username isn't familiar, so I don't think we've ever played together, but if it helps any my Gintoki is silvershamurai?

LOL YES GOOD. You know what else is super fab though, Alvin is also voiced by Sugita huehue.

GINTAMA IS THE GREATEST WAY OF LIFE. EVER. EVERYTHING ELSE SHOULD PACK UP AND GO HOME TBH.

[kaihentai]

Ahhh I understand! Humorous characters in bad settings = bad. also, isn't gintoki SUPER afraid of ghosts hahahaha? He'd totally be freaked out 100% of the time. Are you up to date on the manga? Sakamoto just appeared and there was another super frightened Gintoki is super afraid of ghosts moment~! Thankfully Sakamoto is a dummy so he's just going to go through all of this with a grin on his face

WAIT REALLY HAHAHAHAHA

"Kintoki? Why are you lying to me? Why are you pretending to be a chipmunk? Ahaha... I know it's you! Do you think I wouldn't recognize your voice after all these years?"

there are a lot of characters voiced by sugita so like i don't know who sakamoto would confuse for gintoki tbqh i have never had this problem before

ummmmm that last statement you made is 100% true

[expendablepride]

LMAO YES HE IS WAT A LOSER. And sob no, I need to sink my teeth into the manga now that the anime is ("apparently") over now, but HAHA. sAKAMOTO'S SO ADORABLE LIKE THAT THO, LET'S BE REAL.

KJSFH PERFECT TBH.

I DIDN'T CHOOSE THE GINTAMA LIFE. THE GINTAMA LIFE CHOSE ME.

Also, I am going to have to add you on plurk.

[kaihentai]

my plurk thing is fartbunnies! i know what a brilliant username

Aw you should read it! I know the manga is hard to keep up with but it's pretty great. And they didn't animate one of my favorite sets of chapters, the one with Yamazaki and Tama boooo~!

I may or may not use a variation of that as your first tag ok

Also, is now a good time to post an intro post? I want to post one at an appropriate time and I am just using the one from my application.
