So, this here is a concrit, query and feedback post. If you have any questions or feedback for how I play Rangiku (or any of my muses) it would be very much appreciated. I would especially love concrit so I can try to play all of them to the very best of my ability. Anonymous comments are allowed and IP logging is turned off. (And, much as I love a good BBQ, flames will be ignored.)

The characters I have at rivelata are:

♘ Basch fon Ronsenburg; Final Fantasy XII - [brotherofhonour]
☄ Kaelis Ward; Original Character - [fireovershadow]
☂ Lluvia Loxar; Fairy Tail - [elementfourplay]
♥ Matsumoto Rangiku; Bleach - [sakebombshell]
✿ Ogasawara Sachiko; Maria-sama ga Miteru - [rosatea]

If you are leaving any concrit for characters other than Rangiku, I'd really appreciate if you could mention who in your post.

Thanks for your time!

Please feel free to use this post to drop by any CR or log ideas that you have. Alternatively, you can get me pretty easily via AIM at adriastra.

Think I've forgotten someone or something, or maybe just need to update this thing? Feel free to leave a comment. I really am forgetful, ack.

Hi! To spare you any confusion, all entries below this one are from Rangiku's time in daisychainrpg, and all above are related to her current information for rivelata.

Harry Dresden. Diego Armando. Aerith. Captain Hitsugaya, Abarai, Yachiru, Sado, Hime. Boriane. Neku. Odd Thomas.

I hope you're all reading this. I have other ways to get hold of you all, but I didn't want to do something like that without warning any of you first.
Things are changing in this city, and they're changing fast. If we don't move quickly, we won't keep up. We're already falling behind.

I know each of you are leaders in this place, of a sort, or at least you want to help.  I'm Vice Captain Matsumoto Rangiku. Some of you know me. Some of you don't.
All of you have had enough.

We're going to need all the help we can get, but we need to work together to get things rolling. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm tired of having people disappear and die. We need to make things change, and we need to be leaders in this city

Let me know who we can trust. Sado, I hope those ladies of yours won't mind pitching in. Everyone needs to be surrounded by friends right now. Neku, you said you can spread the word - using the network is going to get dangerous, fast, and I don't want to use my method unless people are already on side. Think you can help play messenger until we start getting things more together?

I propose we start building a machine, and we start building it fast. If we all work together, everyone focuses on their skills and supports those who need it, we can pull through. If we aren't a cohesive group, the enemy can pick us off one by one. Manhattan and it's people will be nothing.

This is war. Who's with me?

Enough. Enough.

That is it. They have taken enough from us. Our freedom and our safety. We've been toys long enough, no matter what we've done. They hurt us, killed and, made-- [her voice cracks for just a moment before she pushes on] -- made the people we were set to protect, the people we care about disappear without a trace, and we don't know what's happening to them.

It's time for it to stop. They won't take any more.

[There's a couple of beats of silence before she starts talking she sounds a little more hoarse than usual, and tired]

She hasn't been back for days. Has anyone seen Lucy?

Lucrecia Crescent. [Another pause, some rustling is heard] I've been looking...

I've been looking, but no signs yet. If anyone knows anything, tell me.

[Rangiku's voice drops to be very soft] Not another. It can't, not again...

[OOC: Still on hiatus, but this needed posting >_> ... ]

Gin, if you had anything to do with this I am going to find out and hunt you down.

Whatever efforts are going on, I want to help.

[Private to Roommates (Tara, Boriane, Naruto, Hitsugaya, Lucrecia) - Medium]

Roomies - Just so you know, there's a guy you need to watch out for. Tall, pale,  silver hair. He smiles a lot. There isn't a lot you need to know about him, but he's a bad guy. If you see him, go in the other direction and find me or the Captain. Got it?

Just watch out for the smile. It's not usually a good sign.


[Private to Kurosaki, Sado, Hime, Tatsuki & Shinigami that aren't Gin - Medium]

Ichimaru was sniffing around near our places the other day, Sado. I thought you should know.

Is there anything I need to know about what he's been doing since he got here? Other than kidnapping you, Hime-- does he have allies here we need to worry about?


[Private to Hitsugaya - Medium]

Captain, is there anything we can do about setting up some shield with kido? If he's going to make a habit to coming round here we can't leave the others unprotected. I think they can take care of themselves, but I don't know about dealing with Gin. Lucrecia seems like just the type he'd try to get to, you know? And Naruto gets riled up so easily -- Boriane and Tara should be okay and be good with the others, but they don't know Gin. Any ideas?


[Private to Odd - Medium]

Odd, got time to answer a few questions for me?

Uzumaki Naruto. I am not old.


Still have a room. If you need somewhere and can filter out a delusional teenager then you are welcome to it~


Edit: Oi! Punks, we have to help Lucy move in. That means you, Naruto!

Captain, would you like to do your lovely Vice Captain a favour~? ♥

Hello Manhattan~

You know, that black out made me realize just how much fun it wouldn’t be to get stuck in this big house all by myself. I prefer company and a cosy atmostphere, and being by yourself in the dark doesn’t really make that happen. (Although luckily I was with you, Renji~ Thanks for the sake and company.)

Rumour has it there are a lot of people around this city who might be needing homes or better homes, and I promise mines the best. It has me, for one, and running water and lots of space for another. What could be better, hmm? Nothing~ Just get in touch with me here and we can see what we come up with. It’d be nice to get a fun group together, and probably safer for everyone too.

Ne, Captain, of course I am keeping a room for you~ Who knows what trouble you’d get into without your extra helpful Vice Captain around. There’s even a desk for all of your papers! I think it belonged to a human teenager, it’s so perfect for you

♥

And if any of you have any special love message for me feel free to leave those here too. Nothing like secret admirers to make a girl feel special on Valentines Day, after all.

[OOC: I figure Rangiku is the kind to commandeer an abandoned house and make it her own. Of course, she’s keeping the biggest room with the most wardrobe space for herself, but there are four more rooms she’d like to fill! One is for her Captain, of course, and I think Boriane and Tara-muns both indicated interest, but the other one should be up for grabs. I know five bedrooms isn’t that realistic as widely available in Manhattan, but lets just say she shopped around a lot after she found that initial apartment to crash in >_> ♥? If a lot of people want in she might also have attic/ living room/basement/garage space they can crash in or… something. The more the merrier, right? And just for the record, this place is nearish to where Chad, Ashe, Celes and other rockers in the House of Awesome reside.]

Captain! I 000110 vjcvy&&^%5634869c i0909128y 3bhvablbi73tr6trg3by5ihy nbns86tq624 vjhbvfhjbgj

....

I'm going back to bed.

Yachi-- Madame President?
I know you're probably very busy with all your duties here in Manhattan, but Renji said you were the person to talk to about getting Soul Candy. I want to help him find his friend - I think she's your friend too, from what I've heard - and I don't think I can do that without it. I'm stuck in this gigai -- well, you know already.
If you happened to have a Chappy that'd be a plus. Let me know, hmm?

And the rest of you... we're all neighbours now, I hear. Anyone know wheres good for a girl to get a drink? I could kill for some sake. Don't give me the look, Captain, you know that sake helps me heal faster~

[The post starts quietly, Rangiku talking to herself]

I think that's it... the little lights on, at least, that means it should be on. [Slightly annoyed] Eeeeh, there's a reason I'm not in Twelfth.

[The sound of something plastic snapping]

Oops. Oh well... [She clears her throat. Serious business has begun.]

My name is Matsumoto Rangiku, Vice Captain of Tenth Division under Captain Hitsugaya Toshirou. I was trapped here in the middle of battle against Aizen and his Espada. I got here earlier today. I don't know where I am, but based on interaction with other people here I have been forced into some kind of Gigai.

[Her voice becomes louder, and a little more forceful]

If any other shinigami have found there way here, contact me immediately! We need to get back to the battle ground - the others are probably still fighting!

[Her concentration is broken and a sharp intake of breath is heard. There is silence for a moment. When she next speaks her tone is lighter, but it sounds a little forced.]

I have a minor injury, but I was treated by a man called Gabranth. We're just going to call him bucket-head, though, ne? He's looking for a way back to some place called Archades, I think-- so once we figure out how to get back to Karakura maybe we can figure something out for him too. Just don't attack a man with a bucket helmet, okay?

[Very quietly]

I hope--

[Sound cuts out]
