      All I can tell is that the thing can do research. Not sure what else it can do.

        ...I could probably make an entire playlist based around my characters' romances.

        I've totally got a shipping playlist. Much ❀ for it.

          I made a LJ repository of quotes from IC scenes, based on the romantic relationships of one of my characters >.>

            Received a ton of In Character information that had been largely withheld from my character, whether intentionally or accidentally is irrelevant. A series of clues scattered within the game world. Virtual dots cast into the wind and left to be found. Though as I began piecing those dots together, the puzzle started to make more sense. A lot more sense.

            The MU Thing I Love? When you find yourself going to bed later and later because your mind dwells on those clues for so long. Then when you go to bed, you find yourself laying there filling the silence with thinking about your imaginary fun-times and those clues. Connecting dots to dots to dots with the little information that you already had available to yourself and you find it gives you a little wiggle of goddamn fun-terror at some of your theories.

            I haven't felt this immersed in a game for a long time and it feels good. Gotta make sure I give the player who brought me into the fold a vote and another thank you. Are internet reach-around's an acceptable form of MU payment?

                Just when I thought I had resolved all of my character's problems...

                Just when I thought she could finally settle into her life...

                Arx's ST staff hands me an all new adventure and it fucking rocks my world.

                  When you're in a scene, things start to get tense, and some pretty heavy violence is on the horizon.

                  First, the players involved stick to IC communication. There's no OOC "OMG wut r u dueing?!?!', people kept it In Character and dealt with the mounting issue and tension through in character means. Gold star.

                  Second, those that did have things to say out of character kept it confined to pages with myself and generally kept the atmosphere light and fun. Through pages myself and a fraction of the people present, seemed to understand that the IC tensions were not in any form an out of character tension. Jokes were exchanged and chuckles were had. "Sorry! Sorry! Kill me quickly!"

                  Third, it didn't result in everyone immediately trying to jump to combat as the first response. Even if someone seems on the edge of going HAM, there's always that potential of talking sense into them! It resulted in dialogue and an apparent misunderstanding overcome. I always appreciate people who can deescalate a tense IC situation, through IC means. I salute you half dozen or so people.

                  Fourth, even after the scene concluded the in character matters weren't really discussed. Everyone kept the mood light and there was unspoken understanding(at least I think) that the IC actions were just that and should remain there. So kudos to everyone for being Big Kids.

                    Fell out of touch with someone when a game closed.

                    Just confirmed today that the person I've been RPing with (and enjoying!) is said person. I'd been wondering for a bit and finally paged today. Apparently they realized it was me a few days ago. πŸ˜„

                    (This is a double-win because our chars are angling into a relationship and I already know they're sane and have the same sort of 'style' for relationship RP that I do.)

                    Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.

                      Staying up way too late RPing a scene with people that just goes all over the place and does so much. Aaaah.

                            Yeah, what is it about telling people you have bedtime in an hour that makes them go completely off the rails and want to GET STUFF DONE NOW GODDAMNIT!?

                            Like, instead of idling all week, could we maybe do bite sized chunks every few days?

                              Getting an app done. I love that feeling of "I accomplished something!", even if it's just some math that I probably screwed up and getting a background churned out.

                                That moment when you RP with someone and love their character, and then realize well after the fact that it's a player you really like from elsewhere. That has happened to me 3x this week so far. Life is glorious.

                                          @Coin you don't play with me anymore either. I need a lover. Preferably a svelte pool-boy archetype.
