HOLIDAY LOVE MEME



HOLIDAY LOVE MEME
The holidays are a time for spreading a little love, so here's the place for letting your affectionate side out and sharing it around!
  • Reply with your name and characters
  • Tag around, let people know what you like about them and their characters, why you enjoy RPing with them!
  • Alternatively, drop a little unsolicited love - players who haven't listed themselves yet, particular CR you enjoy stalking, favourite threads from throughout the year, go wild!

Happy holidays everyone!!

Starting a new game, to say nothing of an almost entirely new format, is a harrowing thing for a person as guarded as myself. Double that when making an original character. Trebly when that character is from an original setting. With no pre-existing lines of influence, no initial outline in which to sketch- man, it's hair-raising for someone as essentially shy as myself.

So imagine my nerves when the arrival log was posted, and I had to throw that opening comment out there, into a strange sea, to bob about in swells and throes of already-existing character relationships and canon preferences. What if I just drifted, aimless, in a sea of heedless prose? What if an indifferent silence o'erwhelmed me? What if my paragraphs could find no purchase?

And then you tagged me back and I was like- 'phew, I'm gonna be okay.'

So thank you. Thank you for the thoughtful, funny, poignant, well-worded tags. Thank you for being the person I've without doubt written the most for in the past year (short, I guess, of my advisor, who doesn't count). Thanks for being a big part of what makes this game a home for my words, and comfortably so, with yours as neighbors.
