I enjoy getting meta with my rambles (not that kinda meta). I think roleplay is very fascinating in how we go about making a whole other mf that we pretend to be for extended periods of time.
@soupdrewmeda Awwh!! 🥺
Yeah, I feel like that garbage truck trip is definitely a core memory for everyone involved LMAO
(Post-hoc because I forgot Meryl in mine, but their brief encounters have left 🪦 with a healthy mix of respect and fear at how brutal her words are.)
When I do share traits, it is kind of fun to play at these little guys having a different reason or path to lead them to the same struggles, barriers and behaviors, yknow??
Some things I make a part of my characters because they are inalienable traits that I cannot disable or turn down.
Some things I like to handwave instead, because the character isn't actually meant to be that way.
I hope people know I don't have any ill will towards anyone in the space. I struggle a lot with tone, and my jokes land badly sometimes, but I don't mean to be off-putting or hurtful/vitriolic.
@DangoSoupLS 🍊 He thinks she's sweet, and wouldn't mind talking to her more. He's kinda terrible at meeting new people so he appreciates that she remembers him :))
🍵 She did start a the wave of compliments aimed at him that broke his brain lol, but thinks she's cute if a little chaotic...
@catellosoup 🪦 feels for him, and also deeply appreciates the encouragement to get out of his shell more. (Also grateful for the networking, but, that's not everything.) He hopes his life is kinder to him, after all he's been through.
@soupdrewmeda Kara's dad!! 🪦 likes him and really appreciates the offer of company to the one party when he was in his nerves about it. Really good music taste and full of life, very funny fella.
(He's amused at the earlier repressed antics but he wont voice that in a pot meets kettle way.)
@soupybunn 🪦 adores Mai so much as one of his first friends in the city. Her antics cheer him up, but he could tell smthing's up with her. He's Very worried about it, but he isn't one to pry. He feels he cannot tell her many things that bother him due to her new job, but he misses her :((
