Sore throat.

I was about to say "that is all." But you know what? That's not all. I had the start of a thing on roleplaying going for myself earlier today, but I never got around to writing it.

But I will. I've had a lot of you comment with things like "I don't RP myself" or "I don't see what's so interesting about roleplaying" or something similar. I was having a discussion with Hannah in the car, which is a fine place for a discussion because radio around here kind of sucks, and she was talking about how she couldn't wait to be 13 so she could play at [livejournal.com profile] milliways_bar. I told her this: I roleplay for one reason: to become a better writer.

It's a little simplistic and sure, there's more than that, but it'll all get out when the words want to get said. For the meantime it's late, I'm tired, and I'm going to call it a night, even with visions of anime dancing in my head. The devil on my shoulder is saying watch right now, you know you want to! but the angel (who today happens to look a lot like Beth) says You're too smart for that. Go. To. Bed. NOW.

50 points to whoever guesses what my shoulder-devil looks like.

Why, thank you kindly, miss. On the feeling better front, that is.


Alternate POV is a very cool and stretchy thing. I like playing outside the HP universe too, and that's mostly because I played in it for so long, it gets hard to keep things fresh. All roleplay boards have a lifespan. I'm trying to decide with mine where the cutoff point makes sense. I don't know if I can go through another retrofitting for my AU Sirius after the final HP book comes out. The fact that I've been able to make it make sense so far is something of a minor miracle. So no, I doubt I'll be playing him whenever book 7 comes out. But still, it's been a great challenge and he's an interesting head to dwell in.
