    God, I love you Bandit, I mean Kaye… Nice to see you’re still the same person, sorta!

    Interesting that Rachel’s wisdom did come from someone a few years older.

      Wouldn’t bandit be chrissie? Bandit’s the one that left to get something from the car, which would make her chrissie. Kaye is Scipio.

        I’m sure there are people out there who would be horrified to know I have a daughter.
        I totally met my ex-wife through roleplaying. That said… it wasn’t roleplaying a romance. We only roleplayed friends at the time.

      It comes across as an awkward interruption. And yet, the whole scene is about how the roleplayed fantasy characters were a conduit for genuine relationships. So Cassie showing up with a present is actually a perfectly appropriate response to Lia’s loss.

      T is clearly too swamped to have confirmed this earlier, so I will do so on his behalf.

      This is Chrissie “from” Quiltbag in the same way that GA’s Shanna is “from” Faans. Same character, alternate universe, no prior reading required.

          It was always the plan to get Chrissie there, and virtually my sole regret about ending QUILTBAG earlier than planned was leaving her in the place I did. This is a second chance I’ve been building to for quite a while.

    Just wanted to say I FUCKING LOVE how you have a token man in this troupe. You’ve also taken the trope of someone playing across their gender and enjoying it far too much, but instead of making it a pervy man, it’s a pervy woman.

    I LOVE YOU. I LOVE THIS.

        There has been plentiful debate on why someone might roleplay a different gender.

        One of the most common I hear is that if a person is going to spend 3/4 of the game staring at someone’s backside, they might as well enjoy the view.

          That is my usual excuse. I make what I want to see, rather than what I want to be.

          That aside though, my excuse tends to be different in multiplayer games. I generally play female characters and frequently pretend to be female in multiplayer games simply because it makes it easier to get PUGs.

          Plus there was that time in Phantasy Star Online where I logged on as one of my most blatantly female characters because I was depressed and just wanted to offload the feels on a random stranger (which is easier to do when pretend to be a XXer).

          Well… it was. His heart was crushed and turned to dust, in panel 5.

          I don’t think Lia realizes how Daniel’s taking what she’s saying, so there’s a chance that the good ship DanieLia is still afloat, even if he thinks it just hit an iceberg and went straight down.

    Lia’s cynicsm is, well, it’s well founded, but it’s also painful to see. Having been a longtime player of WoW, I can definitely know the feels behind putting a lot of yourself into your main (somethingsomethingdruidsandRPserverssomethingsomething..). It makes me sad that her current mood is blinding her to something obvious though. The fact that she’s sitting there with good friends who’ve come to help her out in what is clearly (for her) a tough time is proof that she’s got more than she thinks out of it.
    The whole “virtual world mixing with the real world” thing is ridiculously fascinating to me, especially since it’s only going to get more and more pronounced as virtual worlds become more and more convincing.
