[OOC] Pieces of 8: Bones of the North

[DotCom]

My only experience with EVE is my bank calling to say someone had charged $400 to my credit card to the site.

>< Whatever the FUCK are you spending $400 on a goddamn website for? WAS YOUR FUCKING AVATAR THE SON OF GOD? DID YOU RECEIVE A PILE OF GOLD KRUGERRANDS WITH YOUR PURCHASE? DID YOU ALSO BUY A BLACK MARKET KIDNEY?

...bitch.

*is still absurdly bitter*

[AmongHeroes]

Wow, thank you guys so much for that info. I knew I had come to the right place to ask around. I had heard that EVE was a bit of an uphill battle for new players, but for some reason that intrigued me more. I just bought a new Razer Naga mouse for my computer, and it's begging to be used for such a game I think, though I mainly bought it for Starcraft II. Unfortunately, I don't have any personal friends that play EVE, so I'd be delving into it without that support, as you mentioned might be difficult Derren. Decisions, decisions...

Also, sorry to hear about your mishap with online credit card fraud there Dot. I have had my own bad experiences with such...*shudders*

[AmongHeroes]

A great couple of posts to read this morning! Thank you Wordsmith and LT. I didn't even get my own post up last night, so this was refreshing to see. I'll endeavor to get my own finished as well.

How are we doing this morning?

[Lillian Thorne]

We are well, or at least I am. I'm indulging myself in writing and catching up on a few things which is lovely. I have a weekend ahead of me with not a drop of math in it. A delight.

[Igraine]

Mmmm... No longer the afternoon, but we (as in the royal we, of course) are doing just fine. Studying. Just... studying ><

HOWEVER, it's far easier to study, finding on occasion the lovely little bits of story waiting here - beautiful posts, Wordsmith and Lil!

*high fives Lil, who has no math in her life at the moment* That didn't come easy, and you SO deserve your lovely rest!

eta: /facepalms self >< Also, forgot to mention, I should have a post up tonight or tomorrow morning too, just have to work it in :)

Lulz. I used to lay down three and four hundred dollar charges to my card on a weekly basis for one of the MUDs I used to frequent. Never thought about trying to use someone else's...

[DotCom]

I should have some time to post this weekend. Seems winter's sweeping back through one more time, so...to the computer I return.

As for life...I picked up a hitchhiker on the way home from work today. We had a great conversation or morality versus self-preservation, and the tendencies of idiots like myself to see everyone as inherently good.

And then I had a chocolate bunny.

[Igraine]

o.o... Seeing everyone as inherently good Dot, hence... Picking up hitchhikers? >< Well at the very least, so glad you had your chocolate bunny later. They are tasty! And yes, looking forward to your post hon!

So sorry, didn't finish mine but I hope to finish up tomorrow morning.

[Igraine]

*throws hands up in victory* IN BEFORE NOON! YES!

[Hellis]

Apologies for my absence! Should hopefully have something up today

[Hellis]

Posted.

:D Henry IS a terribly cold being when he wants to. But he knows where home is.

[Igraine]

So good to see you again, Hellis. Hope everything has settled down in life for you, and we'll be seeing a bit more of you about!

And happy Easter to those who celebrate it, and a beautiful Sunday morning (as productive or as lazy as you like ;) ) for those who don't! Today seems a good day for brunch actually, complete with eggs, pancakes, waffles, muffins, sausage, bacon... (nope, not hungry today, not at all XD ) Anyone with some plans for the day, big or small?

[Lillian Thorne]

I do not celebrate but am taking the opportunity to have dinner with family regardless. I'm making a variety of buttery rolls that are rising as I type.

I hope everyone has a lovely day.

[Hellis]

I'll take any excuse to gorge myself :D

[Derren Krenshaw]

Happy Easter Fellow Roleplayers! Hope you're having the loveliest Sunday!

I can say that to everyone here, as you're all great writers and probably pretty decent people. But the next person who tries to force a cheery Easter greeting from me is getting their eyes gouged out with a Peep instead.

...

So this weekend decided to hit me like a truck, and looks to continue doing so for the next few hours. Sorry it's taking so long, but I should have a post up either late this evening or in the morning tomorrow.

If you do this, promise to make a video, I want to see this.

Also, sorry to hear your weekend is rough, I hope it gets better, if not, there are apparently peeps to console yourself with.

[Clumsywordsmith]

After escaping Easter celebrations for three straight years, I made the mistake of being in the country for this round. Goodbye, last of the weekend! At least I had enough time to get my project mostly finished up. But no time for writing.

[Igraine]

At the risk of being far too cheerful in the morning for Derren, inviting a sharpened Peep to vulnerable parts of my head, good morning all! *grins* Yes, it's Monday and yes, it's a Monday after a holiday weekend at that, but it is absolutely beautiful where I live right now anyway . Hopefully it's a lovely Spring day for everyone else here too.

And talked to Derren last night Lil, and get this - I'm not alone in my love for Peeps! So maybe the stale ones really are only good for gouging out eyeballs, but there's at last one other person in the world who loves those soft, sugary marshmallow-y diabetes-inducing pieces of squishy yumminess!

Looking forward to the postings too of course, once everyone is well-recovered

[DotCom]

I was also whisked away for the last part of the day...though not for Easter so much as binge watching documentaries about serial killers on Netflix into the wee hours of the morning. Because reasons.

Anyway, I hope to post after work.

[Igraine]

First random hitchhikers, now a serial killer marathon. Dot... >.> <.< I am... Concerned?
