I hate to sound like a broken record, here, but I'm totally going to anyway. A little over a year ago (and I honestly can't believe it has been that long), Cati put out the call for a character via her friends list, and a year ago today, Tycho Celchu entered the bar for the first time, and me along with him. I was nervous, worried about not being tagged, and generally -- yeah, nervous out of my mind. I'd tried big RP like this once or twice before, and I had always been cliqued right out of the game.
I realized within about an hour of playing in Milliways that things were going to be different here. I've never been welcomed anywhere so thoroughly or immediately, and have definitely never had players accept me with such friendliness. Within three months, I felt like I'd been here forever. So I stuck around, and I apped more (and Tycho may be one of my quieter voices now, but a couple of my others are more than loud enough to make up for that, believe you me), and gleefully let Milliways steadily eat my soul.
A year ago, I would have laughed if you'd told me that I would make (and meet!) friends through a LJ roleplaying game, but I have. Even more important than all the laughter and tears people's characters have caused -- the people themselves. Thanks for a fantastic year, Milliways. You all have been and continue to be unbelievable, have made my life better in countless ways, and I hope/plan to thread with and get to know more of you in the year to come.

And you have Riley. And Mulcahy and countless others that I love. (Although I may be very biased towards Riley, five guesses why.) And just, yeah. It's been fun chatting with you on AIM and hanging out with you in real life and I'm so glad you joined.
Really.
I better see you again this semester, you know!

I'll have to see if I can slot you in to my busy schedule. ;)

YOU.
Are by far one of the people who make this AS MUCH LOVE AS IT IS. Corran's story here would NOT BE THE SAME. EVAR. *snugs*
Happy Milliversary, mi amiga!

--And CRAP I keep forgetting this till the last minute, but Quin's gonna be up this weekend. Would a meetup be feasible, or do I just need to kick myself and remember to tell you sooner next time?
(I have a Milliwayser a stone's throw away and look how I fail at taking advantage of it. XD)

And -- hmm. Um. Possibly feasible? It depends on how much longer I have the black plague, and how easily I get homework done around it, and also on when you guys're free.

Today's pretty much out due to D&D wacky hijinks. Tomorrow, I've got radio time in the afternoon - and while I can have up to two guests, having time to actually talk is a real plus - and then Drag Ball's at night.
So... lunch thing or dinner thing tomorrow, or something Sunday might be best.
