Studying with GGaD!

Anachronism: Characters from Sects that aren’t the ones they are currently in are technically anachronisms. Rai, from the Modern Sect, but in the Cyber Sect, is technically an anachronism. …But, I feel weird saying that he’s an anarchronism, when it’s supposed to be a thing. So, I guess…ties are anarchronisms?

Time traveling people are anarchronisms. Lianhuan, from the Medieval Sect, sometimes appears in the Modern Sect, so he’d be an anarchronism. Ice cream where he lives is an anarchronism.

Aside: Galaxian breaking the Fourth Wall, or any OC breaking the Fourth Wall, is technically an aside, and seen as noncanonical. But, I suppose I call it Fourth Wall Breaking, because in plays (not a RP like GGaD), it’s usually when a character stops talking to other characters and gives his/her personal opinion to the audience. Which is the conventional Fourth Wall—between a play and the audience, I suppose. Denouement: Basically, an explanation of what happens after the central conflict. This will be present in AtRtR, but it’s not present in RPing itself—only, perhaps, after the central plot line, in separate writings (e.g. I can think of “Language of My Heartbeat” by Xenon, which is a denouement of sorts for Damicah, though it’s not applicable to GGaD’s more “central” plot lines, because there really isn’t one central plot line in a FWRP).

Dialog: Why don’t they just call it “dialogue”?

Dynamic Character: If your OC in a RP such as GGaD isn’t this, then you probably aren’t developing him/her/them enough. That’s just my opinion, though.

Inciting moment: Isn’t that usually the first post of every RP thread, or even every post, when it comes to plot threads? I dunno. There just seems to be a lot of inciting moments in RPing, which basically means the moments where action is urged.

Soliloquy: Oh, you don’t want to know how many alone-speeches GalaxE makes.
