It’s been about two and a half years since I’ve done one of these, and let’s face it... the last six months have been a bit rocky with all the behind the scenes drama so I’d just like to take a minute to remind everyone:
When I last did one of these it was shortly after the third anniversary of the game. We’re about a week past the five and a half year mark now. There are no words to explain how awesome that feels, how nice it is to have been given a chance to play and develop so many characters over years like we have here. To have things happen that we never could’ve anticipated just by virtue of the fact that sometimes even the simplest interaction sometimes causes ripples and changes we didn’t plan. Yay organic lines?
In no particular order:
cowboy_niki Thank you for reminding me basically daily that not everyone is allergic to interaction beyond trying to clear. You give me so much hope all the time. Thank you for the enthusiasm you bring not only to your characters but to the game in general. I know Hannah hasn’t interacted directly much with more than just Niki, but I do read everything. I look forward to playing with you for years to come.
nottalwaysnice What to say that I didn’t say in the last post, or to you last week when we talked? I love you. You’ve been here since practically day one, and I honestly can’t imagine not only this game without Sadie, but Hannah without her. I very much look forward to the next step in their evolution, and they’re so going to get through all the crap they’re dealing with right now because that’s what they do. They’ve done it before under far worse circumstances and came out the other end stronger. They’ll do it again.
aerinn I haven’t really played with Aerinn much yet, but I really just have to say that I love her. She’s super adorable and unique and love reading her posts and comments. She’s so much fun.
alrivera I’m sure you know this already but I’m so glad you’re back! I’d very much missed playing with you. Save for that blip you’ve been around for a long time and I’m so glad of that. But again, you probably know all that. Anyway here’s to many more years of playing together?
callioperose Why you ever put up with me sometimes, I really don’t know, but I love you to pieces, and I don’t just mean RP wise. But I do hope you know how much I love playing with you on top of it, how much fun I have discovering the crazy places our characters will take us next. Even the planned things manage to turn into an adventure and I can’t wait to see what the next one is.
To those I didn’t mention? Thank you for making this place such an awesome place to play. <333
