And having them bump into each other shouldn't be too hard if we can pick a time or whatnot. Level is nice, but I've done RP on alts that are still only level 15. Imagination and coordination allows for a lot of stuff to be hand-waved.

So now I just get straight to the point. Occasionally I'll send a tell if I don't see an emote or some sort of sign from them in awhile, just to make sure they are not afk. I think one thing that intimidates a lot of new Rpers is when they walk up and get no response. That usually causes a lot of self doubt and feelings of rejection when more then likely the player is currently afk.

Oooo that would work haha! I only have her at level 15-16 at the moment and she's currently in Limsa so yeah ; u ; If you don't mind o/ It'd be nice to set up something whether it's in in-game or forum haha. Though forum's much easier for me though cos of my timezone... +8 UTC > x >

I'm totally up for planning something - whether it's meeting up in game or getting your feet wet through an RP thread in the Town Square section. That's where all the RP-by-post stuff happens, after all! And having Chachan meet her in Limsa or around there is easy enough - he's a smith! The Guilds are over in Limsa and he pops by there all the time to help out.
