        MU* things I love...

        Running into an old friend on a different MU*, not realising who they are, and them not realising it's you. Get thrown into a scene together, have amazing chemistry, massively enjoy the RP anonymously, and then get to be surprised when the mask comes off way later. "Wait, that was you?!"

        This has happened to me a number of times now, and every time it does I want to scream with joy. Most recently it happened with someone I hadn't RPed or communicated with in over a year. But, turns out, they're just as awesome as they were back then, if not even better. Much <3.

          It's weird. I often have way better cvhemistry with my friends when I don't know it's them than when I do. Planning things almost always ends up in some sort of stall or whatever. I dunno.

                  @Coin if you ever want to play together with a prearranged relationship, you let me know. Whether that's lovers or otherwise. Okay, let's just stick to the otherwise.

                  I'll play a henchman for you or @Royal any day.

                    It's true, your mom is more than a friend.

                      I do love me some henchmen. @Royal has played my henchman before. I should get both of you as henchmen. We can get @ILuvGrumpyCat as a moll. We can do a whole mob thing.

                            I'm not sure what you guys are talking about but I love playing sidekicks. Is there a difference between sidekicks and henchmen?

                                Hahah, that's amazing. I have to finish reading when I get home and am not trying to enter information in this broken school system program that was written in like 1992, but I will!

                                  Fucking hate Christmas.

                                  It's a shitty holiday and everything about it is dumb. So is Hanukkah, which just had to fall obnoxiously right on the 24th to the 1st of January this year. (Jewish calendar is variable, and it usually ends up being significantly earlier in the year, sometimes even occurring in late November.)

                                  I hate both of these things! I'm a shameless grinch, and this year I got stuck totally alone for it, not even with other grinches to grouch with in person, because a family member inexplicably died of cancer halfway across the globe (seriously selfish of them, amirite) and my closest mates, who didn't go to that funeral abroad, decided to go on a holiday tour of a whole bunch of countries in the southern part of Africa instead.

                                  So I'm sitting at my laptop indoors, brooding, thinking of how much I hate this time of year, because everything outside is closed so I can't even go have fun somewhere and meet new people. But, thanks to this hobby, there are people who are online at the same time, elsewhere around the globe, who are just as miserable and alone as I am right now and want to have some fun.

                                  Cue a string of amazing and awesome stories throughout the last two days, from adrenaline-pumping, conflict-ridden action-adventure excitement to, you know ... eyebrow waggle. And I had fun.

                                  Now I know this sounds sad as fuck, but while I may not be able to have an enjoyable holiday season, at least my pretendy-fun-time character can. And it's times like this that when I occasionally step back from the hobby or cut it loose for a spell, I remember why it's a good hobby to have available now and then.

                                    People look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them I hate Christmas. I didn't spend it mudding tho. I spent it recovering from wine, and then being trapped by a cat on a couch.

                                      That feeling when you dream about your character and think, I'm going to try that.

                                        When you get closure for your character, with another character, and it's a perfect moment in time, and you wouldn't change a thing about the scene, AND it drives further character development in a huge way for your PC. ❤

                                          Fucking Star Wars.

                                          Well-coded games, like, holy shit.

                                          All of that. As I said on the game's channel: I haven't seen coding like this in over a decade, and it's fucking awesome.
