(i don't like to make Horu like a child. Or make him look childish. I want this to be genuine feeling? just like what you made Horu react in this post.to be so happy and surprised, he became teary eyed is the natural reaction i am looking for. i don't know why you think i want him pouting or shouting, if i made you misunderstand i wanted shouting or pouting from Horu, i apologize for giving you that misunderstanding. i really think what you've written is the perfect reaction already.
ok. so the wake up early thing is what you think would make the story more logcial. ok, accepted. It just felt a bit weird since it felt like you're not agreeing with what i wrote. i just want to say James didn't know if he could end the meeting early or night in the morning, so in my mind the chance of him telling Horu about him possibly appearing was very low. He wouldn't want to make Horu hopeful only to have him finally couldn't come.
and I think i remember we discussed we didn't need others to tell bad things. but in this situation i am looking for something different: 1. i think this is what wives usually do? at least in tv dramas? when they gather, some particularly gossipy wives would start whining about their husbands not being good enough. that is why i think we can add that kind of conversation into our rp. it doesn't mean their husbands are really treatin them badly. it's affectionate whining... if that makes sense. 2. i think that would make a nice contrast and to make others looking at them with surrpise and maybe a bit envy is what i personally think is quite sweet and 3. it is not necessarily making someone look bad. i am sure the other couples also love each other, they just maybe don't show their love in the way James and Horu showed to each other. if that triggers your bad memories, I'm sorry and I will try to avoid suggesting scenes like this. i guess i just couldn't resist because i think this could be a good idea.
anyway, I am getting defensive here, and I am very sorry about that. i should not force my ideas on you. i will try my best to remember your preference, so that we can rp nicely together. I am happy to have you as my rp partner, and I cherish what we are doing together deeply. glad to know you are also feeling the same :))
James was so happy seeing his family. and he was so glad he could finally made it - the other people attending the meeting had looked at him strangely when he rushed out of the meeting room immediately after the meeting ended. James couldn't care what they think though. to join his family in this special occassion is more important than what those people thought.
"hey babies... hey babe." James smiled referring first to his kids, then his wife. "i'm here...." he smiled at Horu's eyes going watery, but his strong wife was quite successful hiding them and holding them in, to make a good example in front of the kids.
"hey Johan... yes Daddy's here now." James welcomed his younger son into their embrace, then lifted him up to sit him on his arm. "Daddy missed Johan too much, he had to rush here." he chuckled, but to his srurpise, Johan suddenly cried very loudly.
"Daddy! you said you woudln't come! bad daddy... bad daddy. daddy you lied! Daddy you lied to make me so disappointed for so many days..." Johan was crying so loud, but his chubby little hands were clutching James' clothes very tightly. James was at first panicking, he didn't know why his son was crying so hard, then he smiled. "i know babe... i'm sorry. Daddy didn't want to lie, daddy just tried very very hard to rush through things so Daddy can join Johan. Sorry babe, if i knew i could join, i would have told little Johan. So, forgive daddy can you?" James dried Johan's tears, looking at him tenderly, then looked at Horu. he wanted to say tthe same to Horu. He guessed his wife could feel something similar as Johan. and he wanted to tell Horu the same thing. he didn't lie, he just didn't know if he could really make it.
