random observation-type things

*Door/Tom Riddle OTP! (And as far as I know, that's a personal first - I'm not much of one for crossover OTPs, or RPG OTPs that I don't have a character in.)
*Seems we've got another case of layered character - Peter! Wow. I haven't been keeping up with all of the brunch thread, but I hit the backstory thing and... ::jaw drops::
*Speaking of wings, something I archived on my Good Omens site: Pride, by mahwlee.
*Generalised applause to all of you who're contributing to and/or keeping up with The Threads That're Eating New York State As We Type. I'm not even managing all of them.

Ooh ooh ooh GoodOmens notreallyslash... That kind of thing is just as satisfying, in its own way, as Kassandra's notreallywingfetishporn.

Oh, my russet pelt, has everyone read that?

((blushes for really real in real life))

Of COURSE! It was one of those things that pulled me over the edge to join. I've been reading everything in the whole bar... and I mean EVERYthing... to see if there was any playing as good as that. And lo, I have found it. Good thing I joined as a completely nonsexual character... might get carried away.

Your story -- was that telling completely off the top of your head?

My gaw.

Haha, yes, and I was so completely panicked that I didn't think too hard, and it worked. I don't even know the Fool's fandom, so I was hoping the stories of betrayed kings are all close enough that this would mean someting to him. Whew. Didn't offend him too badly, I think. IRL I am a horrible storyteller. It helps to have archetypes.

Hee - thanks! That was totally an unexpected thing, but wow - it is working, isn't it?

Man, it's hard to be in London Below when happy hour is going on.

Since I can't post here on my own, I do hope that you don't mind me using your space to publically applaud whom ever is playing Pettigrew.

You're making my job of being bezerker asshole very very difficult. *smirk* Thanks for every minute of it!

LOOK! *points* ELVIS!

Permit me to return the compliment. You're a wonderful player. Raph is coming across as tough, belligerent, hard-bitten, the possessor of painfully won wisdom, and the follower of a harsh but heroic code of honour that Peter can't quite understand.

oh my god that story was fantastic!
and it did fit in with the fandom beautifully, I was trembling almost as much as the fool would have been.

(by the way, I really do recommend the Robin Hobb books)

*is utterly amazed and loving every minute at milliways*

Hee! Layers are my favorite things. Yeah - I love the character, love writing him, but I had no clue how things would work out in a format like this. It's my first RP so it's a whole new world of creative fun and frantic refreshing of pages with Threadzillas on them.

And Door is making it a lot easier, let me tell you. As [livejournal.com profile] iopenthings says "Theirloveissolifechanging" :P

You're really good at this stuff.

Squee! Thanks! That just makes my day.

I so can't wait for Tom to get back from London Below today - stupid real life obligations that keep me away from my RP :P
