Main, Meet Alt. Love On.

By | July 28, 2009

So you have a character, it’s your main, and you want to RP it. Things happen, good things, with someone else’s character. Everything looks like it’s going swimmingly! Until you realize that the person your character has clicked with is someone’s tertiary alt, and they intend to invest limited time into it. The problem of [...]

Banal doesn’t mean what you think it means.

By | July 20, 2009

I think one of the challenges of playing an RP couple is keeping things fresh. If I wanted to have a long conversation about who’s supposed to take out the trash today, I’ll just look at the guy ten feet away and ask him about it. My imaginary friends don’t need these types of interactions, [...]

Friday Fiction: Retribution.

By | July 17, 2009

Yva Darrows and Jak Balthasar are a couple that simply shouldn’t be, but for reasons Yva’s player can’t even quite wrap her mind around, they work incredibly well together.  Enjoy. ***** She didn’t wake gracefully. There were odd days here and there when morning light struck her face and she felt vibrant and ready to [...]

A Gaggle of Nerds?

By | July 14, 2009

Or are we a flock?  Maybe a tribe?  I kinda prefer gaggle myself.  It’s just a fun word to say. So, this weekend Feathermoon’s finest (well, not all of them, but a good chunk of them) got together at a dorktastic gathering called Feathermeet.  This event has gone on for four years now, is organized by [...]

Returning to my roots.

By | June 29, 2009

When I rolled on Feathermoon oh so many years ago now, I was a horde undead mage.  I played with an rp raid, I was in an rp guild, and everything about my experience was rp-centric.  When Bad Things Happened (much drama I won’t reiterate for your sanity and mine), I came alliance side.  Friends here, [...]

Cry Moar Raid N00b.

By | June 22, 2009

Lazy Yva is Lazy, and I’m terribly sorry about that. Why? Mostly because I’ve been taking a much needed hiatus from Warcraft lately. Summer’s here, the outdoors is nice, and I own a house and a dog. Nough said, I think. HOWEVER. I still log on to raid and get my rp on, so lemme [...]

Friday Fiction: Rage.

By | May 29, 2009

Sunrise. She walked in the door of his house, her eyes unfocussed. She tried to smile, but she couldn’t feel her face around the pulp of her broken nose, or the swelling in her upper lip. In fact, she couldn’t feel anything. The pain had given way to numbness. Her whole body was a slow [...]

When All’s Quiet.

By | May 28, 2009

So how do you START an RP dialogue with a stranger? I suppose you can walk up to someone and say your hello and comment about the weather. It’s a normal enough thing to do – sort of. I mean, it doesn’t happen to me in the grocery store or at the gas station. Americans [...]
