A Few Overdue Thoughts:
Posted: Wed Nov 11, 2009 12:34 pm
We've seen some amazing RP lately, folks, and I figured instead of gushing at everyone individually I'd make a big blanket thread of epic fucking awesome.
- First thank you to Jolly for his amazing send off to Jolstraer. That was beautifully written and handled, and I cannot express how touched I was by the whole thing. I will admit I am absolutely beside myself that we won't see you and Mia around much, but you should both know you are very loved, very missed, and at any time that you two feel comfortable enough to come hang out, you should come shoot the breeze with us in exileooc just to keep us up to date on your baby nerdlet. Best of luck to both of you, and again, thank you for that gorgeous piece of fiction.
- Second gold star goes to Aely. You've astounded me three times in so many weeks. First with the longest night and how you put on Tarq's mantle to give a fuck-all rousing speech, secondly on your work on the Jolstraer fiction and in character delivery of said news at the ensuing wake, and thirdly on the glorious 'fuck you' to Bricu last night. Each time I've goose pimples, seriously. That's some seriously excellent roleplay.
- Third goes to Arrens for giving the Riders an amazing bit of plot to toy with in his metamorphosis RP. He essentially had the fucking goon squad on his back the other night and he rolled with it. I don't know how many roleplayers (especially -relatively new ones- to a server) could handle staring down the Wildfire Riders and not take it as some personal affront to his story arc. You've been utterly chill about all of it, we love having you around IC'ly, and it's really been a treat meeting you and getting the opportunity to fuck up royally alongside you.
- Last (for now) goes to Genise for her fucking /brilliant/ rp with Haylie last evening. Her portrayal was intense and sad and very very believable - she was the consumate professional in light of the circumstances, and again, I know how hard it is to be the one standing toe to toe with a pack of angry Riders. It can be utterly overwhelming, and you handled it beautifully.
There will be more as I think of them, but those are the four that have completely reminded me of why I'm an elitist roleplayer asshole. Thank you folks, truly.
