The Chronicles of Benedicto

Benedicto · April 2014

So I've posted a few logs with regards to Bene's recent straits. There's been several developments and rather than post them in individual threads, I'm just going to use one discussion to chronicle the ongoing story. I encourage any and all who get involved in this or have their own spin-off arcs that are relevant to post as well as it all ties into the central theme. Unfortunately as Logsty was the primary source of most of the logs, many of the links no longer work! This causes me major sadface. Everything should run chronologically.

The back story for this arc is that as a result of fighting within the Order (primarily between Rashar+Trager vs Bene+Haven+Valingar). Slyphe strips everyone of their rank and reduces them to OR1.

Aftermath

Confrontations

Between 'Confrontations' and 'Breaking Point' Chakrasul accosts Benedicto and works Her wicked way on him, pinpointing the previous actions of Slyphe as his weak spot. She promises him Her help, whether he wants it or not and gifts him a bunch of Chakra blossoms.

Lin · April 2014

omg yay, I know what I'm gonna be reading for the next few days!

Piper · April 2014

I'm totally going to read these AFTER our roleplay is concluded to a point. I don't want to be influenced by the impending awesome!

Benedicto · April 2014

I would certainly hope that the information contained herein will not be abused in any way, shape or form. If they give players a desire to be involved, then great, but there was a concern before posting that they could potentially be used in a detrimental way. I'm deciding to trust and have faith in my fellow Aetolians instead.

Lin · April 2014

You kidding me, like the first thing I'm gonna do with all this is metagame the hell out of it

Piper · April 2014

ROFL! Dude, no. I'm not going to abuse anything. I'm just saying that, in this case, I'm excited to read it in one bloody go all later. I like being held in the dark with my roleplay as super, freaking tempting as this is to read. You're an awesome roleplayer and I bet these are incredible

Haha I wasn't accusing you! It was directed at anyone who would potentially just abuse the information without any RP or anything.

If anything I'm hoping these logs prompt more people into coming up to Bene and being like "'Sup?"

Serrice · April 2014

We would if we could find you. But you know, gem/elusion >: (

Toz · April 2014

Yeah I'm abstaining from reading these for the same reasons @Piper mentioned. Should let us claim pk cause on anyone who brings OOC stuff IG though! >_>

Rashar · April 2014

Always great reads, man.

I did have a short laugh moment when Bene claimed that Rashar wouldn't find a certain thing a worthy cause.. considering he's made more than one attempt to do exactly what you two were talking about.

More, please. RP and logs both.

Aishia · April 2014

I'm going to use this information to try to turtle turtle turtle.

Moirean · April 2014

The follow-up scene, after Bene leaves Moi in her garden: http://www.logsty.net/logs/P9slx

Phoenecia · April 2014

Boo. I'm kinda sad I wasn't able to stick around longer so Phoe could chew out Bene. If she'd seen any of that, she'd have probably made good on her threats to fry him alive. >_>

Moirean · April 2014

Moi and Bene meet for a sane, responsible meeting about parental duties and mutual respect: http://www.logsty.net/logs/dgeaI

Benedicto · April 2014

Updated.

Benedicto · March 2017

I've tidied the initial post up and provided some context. I've also added some older and newer logs.

I also had to clear out a ton of links because they were dead. It makes me sad that the logs were lost because of Logsty going dead.

I'm going to try and start updating this thread with the new arcs I'm getting involved in as they link to certain things within these earlier logs!
Watch this space!

Benedicto · October 2019

Going to just use this discussion to store all my Bene art as other people have been doing in different threads around the place!

Aloli · November 2019

More Bene art.

This was a lovely surprise from @Konnorn, he called it Benoli. I giggled.

Zaila · November 2019

I love how many action-shot type pictures you've got of Bene! It's so fun to watch his style change over the years!

But that last picture there is soooooooooo adorable that I'm going to focus on that! I absolutely love it! Not only is it just a sweet little romantic moment, it's got all sorts of things I love in it! Props, interpersonal connection, characters actively doing something, not just existing within the props, a sense of place with the window and landscape outside! And I can just totally imagine Aloli blowing those bubbles into a cute little floaty spray around the room! Art that can inspire a whole scene to play out in your mind from just one image is always top-notch in my book!
What an awesome gift! Fabulous!
