Nostalgia, mainly

[naodrith]

You know, it's times like this, when I'm all excited and nervous and overjoyed about Darkest Hour, that I really regret what happened to my old RPG.

See, that was back when I was just a kid who didn't know what I was doing. I was absolutely in love with the show Digimon, and I wanted more than the (really stupid) fanfics I was writing. So I convinced Jenny and Shannon, neither of whom watched the show regularly, to join an RPG I started about it.

It was silly - three people playing a bunch of characters - but it sort of worked. I remember hundreds of phone conversations about the game. I remember staying up late one night talking to Jenny about the backstories of our characters. I remember arguing about love triangles - lots of arguing - and I remember playing really stupid tricks that could never have worked if we hadn't been real-life friends.

We were so young. We were so stupid.

We were so happy.

And I've missed it, since it ended. I regret that I have no logs, that I can't remember much more than names. I regret that the three of us never talk anymore.

But I've never regretted actually doing it.

And I've missed RPing, since I stopped playing on the Pern MOOs. And I'm glad I get to start again.

As I begin to create my character journal, my icons, everything, and as I count down the days until Darkest Hour begins...I'm really, really happy.

Thanks, starrysummer, for putting up that link to the website.

(Although it's going to be annoying for awhile, having to keep checking which journal I'm signed into. Sigh.)
