Roadmaps: An AU Marauders' Era RPG

I'm sorry to give Fin a reason to play Carmina Burana again, but I'm leaving the game.
You have all been more than wonderful, and I am honestly very sad to go, but I'm just not adapting to playing in a journal heavy game the way I'd hoped to. I end up shy and anxious, worrying about not posting and getting behind, and then when it happens the worry starts all over again.

I think you're all marvellous and so is this game, and I dearly hope to run into you again some day.

It's my time to bow out and open up space for players who can dedicate the amount of time Barty and Arthur deserve. I wish I hadn't been so shy in chat, but I want you all to know that it was a joy playing with all of you and I'm sorry for the inactivity. You guys are seriously amazing, and this game is unique and spectacular - I can only dream of finding another game with such an awesome premise and such dedicated, welcoming people in the future, presuming my life ever straightens itself out. I'm honestly crying a little.

To quote the above musical, life is random and unfair. Though I love this game to pieces, I have to focus on RL right now. Sorry for all the trouble, and thanks for having me here.

I am afraid that I must take my leave of you as well, fair Roadmaps.

( i solemnly swear that i am up to no good. )

friends, romans, roadmappers! lend me your ears: i, too, have made the difficult decision to leave this game. it's something i've been mulling over for a while, and now is as good a time as any. i hate to leave anyone in the lurch (and i'm so sorry Kelsey for jumping ship before i could see your wonderful Arthur :\), but this is for the best for me right now. i've had a wonderful time getting to know all of you, and i sincerely hope we keep in touch. my cdj and aim (untangle/pinkfaerie81) aren't going anywhere, so i do hope to see you that way.

i wish the game lots of success, and i hope you all think fondly of me~ when i'm gone. see you all down the yellow brick road ♥

Okay, darlings, I feel like I'm just jumping on the bandwagon, but it must be done. This, my friends, is where we must part. I've been thinking about it for quite some time, and this felt like the perfect opportunity, seeing as the game is transitioning again! I've had a wonderful time getting to know you all, and I hope you feel the same about me. Being here since the beginning was an experience to say the least, and it was a pleasure letting Lily grow with your characters. Please, do keep in touch! You all clearly have my AIM, and I'm also at pacman if you lot want to friend me.

And since I can't be as precious as Micha with her poetry, I'll leave you with that. And, of course, good wishes for all your future endeavors!

This is not the greatest post to be making, but the time has come for me to check-out of Road Maps. I've been here since the start and had a fantastic time and some really great interaction, and it's been lovely to know you folks. I hope you won't be shy--friend me at my CDJ lemonadeandgin which I might even try to update one day--and will stay in touch.

I take Remus Lupin (hollow_moony), Aubrey Borgin (borginal), and José Carlos Gonzalez (jcgonzalez) with me. If you've a character who wants departure details for these boys, feel free to IM me at lemonade and gin or drop a comment here.

I leave you with a lovely poem by Philip Larkin and all my affections.

Love, we must part now: do not let it be
Calamitious and bitter. In the past
There has been too much moonlight and self-pity:
Let us have done with it: for now at last
Never has sun more boldly paced the sky,
Never were hearts more eager to be free,
To kick down worlds, lash forests; you and I
No longer hold them; we are husks, that see
The grain going forward to a different use.

There is regret. Always, there is regret.
But it is better that our lives unloose,
As two tall ships, wind-mastered, wet with light,
Break from an estuary with their courses set,
And waving part, and waving drop from sight.

So, bad news, I think I vastly overestimated my daughter's independence when I joined this game. I took a couple really good days, where she slept properly and nothing was ever going on and preemptively decided they were the norm. Not to mention I'm going to be moving in a week and I just don't think that I can be/have been the best player I can be because of those things, and you guys really deserve a great and active Amelia. This is easily the best game I've ever been in and I hate that I have to leave so soon, especially since I never even really got to play with any of you guys. Maybe in a couple months if things ever calm down I can try again and see what I can do, but I made a snap judgement call after a few calm days and ultimately I cannot swing this right now, and I'm really so, so sorry.



I wish that I had found a game like this two years ago when I had nothing going on in my life, because you're all damn awesome and I hate to bail on you like this.

CHARACTERS: Everyone.
SETTING: Kuelap. Full Moon.
SUMMARY: Werewolves transform, petrified people are unpetrified, and all three groups meet and clash in the fortress. Basically, shit is going down.
NOTE: Basically, since everyone will be involved with this and threading it out would be impossible, everyone can just leave a comment below noting anything significant that happened to their character during the battle. Injuries, spells thrown at others, information found out, etc. Anything goes! If I forget anything, also see this plot post.

( All that's happening. )

Okay, guys. As much as I hate to do this, I think I'm going to have to withdraw myself from the game. I've been having a lot of difficulty getting things done lately for various reasons, and I don't want to sit here holding positions that other people could be using while doing absolutely nothing with them. I will miss you crazy cats like burning, but for now, I must bid you adieu.

Much love & kisses,
Kira <3

Hello, darlings.

So...I feel really sad saying this, but I honestly don't have the time to devote to this game, and I haven't really been doing my part with my characters. So, that said, I will be leaving Roadmaps and taking Moody and Travers. I still adore you all, and I hope to keep talking to you. And maybe one day I will return. But for now, it really isn't fair of me to stay.

My darlings,

I keep thinking that I'll have more time than I do once I'm off this overtime, but with supporting Disneyland Tokyo these last few horrific days, I'm not seeing life letting up anytime soon. :/ So rather than fading out with the activity check, I thought I'd peace out and give you guys a hug and wish you the best of luck! I can be found over at fatherguacamole and I really hope to keep in touch. It's been a TON of zany fun and I'm sure that you guys will continue to have equal awesome wherever you crazy kids travel.

<3 Take care!

I love you all, my darlings, but (as I told Finston) I don't currently have the time to keep up with the activity requirements in this wonderful game! I wanted to leave on good terms, so y! <33 I wish you all the v. v. best and hopefully I'll see you around! :*

My CDJ is shakespeare and my AIM is ShesOutofHerTree, so stay in touch. <3
