Sleep? We don't need no steenkin sleep.

[thistlechaser]

I'm sick, I had four hours of sleep last night, bedtime was an hour back, and I'm about a million years from sleeping.

Best. RP. Ever.

I mean like ever-ever. :D Ever been in a group scene where every single post is perfect? Everyone's posts every time? (Except mine because ARG why can't I pre-type in notepad so I can catch redundant words! And 'happy'? 'Happy'?! Is there a more bland, less descriptive word out there? And rough sentences, arg!)

For you MU* folks, recall how the best RP logs would be linked from the game's webpage, as an example of RP found on that game? This would be so totally linked from our page. :D

Ha ha, tomorrow morning I'll be all embarrassed that I posted this, because everyone involved can read it, but tonight? SO HAPPY. SO NOT SLEEPING.

Tired. Going to go try to sleep again. Unless I throw up first. WAY TO RUIN MY HAPPY RP FEELING, WHATEVER BUG GAVE THIS TO ME. Now I've been reduced to typing in all caps. I'm going to post this and go back to bed before I start talking in lolcat.

Post of the year right here.

Sick, tired, yet still happy as hell.

Yay for Thistle!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Yes, very much so. :D :D *hugs*

See, that's the kind of stuff I talk about with the positive outlook. Ya, you might be sick. But isn't it better to be sick and happy then sick and not happy? To quote one of my favourite TV characters: "Winter is coming." "When I'm sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead."

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Silly. And to continue on the RP note, my character keeps saying "winter is coming". I mean, because it is! But the phrase just always jolts me.

[veloxe.livejournal.com]

That's because winter comes for all of us. Just sometimes it comes in the form of the living dead reanimated by ancient magics. Wait a minute...that works for WotLK and ASOIAF. I'm on to you Blizz!

Well, now we know what the White Walkers are, huh? SCOURGE! Coming from the north to kill us all!

How did we not see this connection before?!

I swear to god if The Great Other turns out to be a former human possessed by an evil sword then I'm done.

I could totally see GRRM playing WoW.

Actually, seriously, I think he said he avoids MMOs because of the time needed, otherwise he knew he'd play them all day.

[veloxe.livejournal.com]

So, ASOIAF is just Warcraft 3 fanfic?

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

And people mock fanfics! This'll show 'em!

This makes my black and withered heart smile.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Good. :D

And guess where much of my new RP takes place. In that place with the leper gnome slaves! It amuses me so.

o_o Wow. Uhh..

Wow. Thank you! This is probably the most exuberantly glowing praise for one of our RP scenes I've ever seen.

Like.

Ever.

/duck back under shy-rock.

THANK YOU.

I'm really glad you had fun. We did too. :3 Seeing that it brought so much happy puts a huge grin on my face. :D

Maybe it was the lack of sleep on my part, but I don't think so.

Maybe you guys are used to it? I mean, scenes working so well? It's probably an effect of the group being together for so long, RPing with each other so much. The energy just worked, like one big... woven... thing. A basket. A basket of good RP. :P

Maybe it's like this all the time, but it just took new eyes to recognize it as such! :D

like one big... woven... thing

I call this the BLT phenomenon. Like, you can have a BLT and it can range from crap to awesome. But every now and then you get the perfect BLT. The Bacon is nice and crispy, the lettuce is just the right level of crunchy, and the tomatoes are juicy. No soggy, no under/over cooked, just perfect. More then the sum of it's parts.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

More then the sum of it's parts.

I think that's what it comes down to. I've gotten that in past RP scenes, but it's rare. It's always been either with someone I was RPing for a long, long time with or someone who would become a long time RP partner.

...and now I really, really want bacon. BLT without the lettuce and tomatoes! Bacon on white toast with mayo. So bad for you, so yummy. Mmm.
