Good things in Mushing

Honestly I have so many good memories in my years and years of RP. I even today look fondly back on the things that irritated me in the past, and I can find the great in it, and wish I hadn’t taken it so badly back then. A lot of you made me a better RPer, a better storyteller, and have confidence in my writing.

Prank wars on multiple places consisting of back and forth vignettes.
Crying laughing at things like possum attacks with @tat and then getting to play big emotinal payoff scenes months in the making.
Punching out feelings with characters bad at talking with @Pyrephox
Randomly having @Third-Eye and I decide their characters yell out the others name in greeting at every social event.
An NPC big-bad funeral scene run by @KarmaBum and @bear_necessities that absolutely rocked characters’ worlds.
Having found multiple groups of people at multiple places willing to “yes and…” ridiculous scenes into full blow mini-plots that often turned from goofy throw-aways into real character development.

I know friendship is bad, but so many friends I made and kept for 20+ years.
Also I can type really fast.

That was a good time. I had that log up not too long ago.

Being a disabled person who can only leave the house with a helper and isn’t even able to drive a car themselves – and still being able to be part of a community of people and have a social life.
That’s what Mushing is for me.

@L-B-Heuschkel honored to have you in this community.

New to me people who turn out to be awesome.
It still happens and it’s always awesome when it does.

Just some nice storytelling that has you long pause to think - how would my character react to this. How would they feel? Oh they could do X and Y and we’ll see how this story develops on.
That’s been delightful these last few weeks.

I’m still struggling with a lot extreme depressive mood swings. But I haven’t abandoned the game I built. I still find time to help players that want to develop their characters or bring some new idea to world building.
It’s…nice when I’m told how thoughtful I’ve been in wanting them to feel like they matter. That’s hard to take but it’s nice. I try to remind myself of those things, even if I don’t really believe it myself. Or worth their time. It is a demon I continue to deal with. But the little signs I see tell me that it’s still worthwhile doing.

I have always found you to be worth any and all time spent in your direction. I’m glad to hear your players appreciate you enough that you can hear them saying it.

Feeling adopted by an amazing batch of writers is nice. Expansive imaginations and vocabularies and they put it all together in amazing ways. And they seem to enjoy my weird. It’s great. Like really great.
-
@IoleRae For all that I’ve done. For all the things I’ve failed at, of which there are many, when I’m told that the players feel safe? That is perhaps the most rewarding thing I’ve gotten out of it.

Queers. I recently found a game full of them, and I can’t even describe how it feels to be surrounded by people who know what I’m talking about.
