Most epic event. EVER.

WOW. Lyras is gone for good and so are her minions Sahfra and Tachid. Jon and I stayed up long hours playing, it was challenging and SO much fun.

Jon (as Alexsei) was running triage in the temple for the White Rose and I (as Talliska) was doing Rescue Team work, dragging bodies to the safe spot inside the temple grounds.

The temple itself needed its orbs charged with mana to keep up its defenses and power the rituals that the Cleric and Empath guildleaders were doing. So I had Ryshassa (who's on a secondary account now) running around bringing people up to the orb when Talliska wasn't out rescuing.

We had to charge pretty much continually, too. So that required pulling in a LOT of people. Ryshy got two RP awards for it, and Talli's got plenty of them during the string of invasions since Thursday. It's just been SO fun we couldn't stop playing. The RP opportunities, the danger, the thrill of finding out what comes next!

We even managed to do some White Rose recruiting at the same time. We're just that awesome. Alexsei has gotten SO many accolades as White Rose Triage Director, I'm so proud of him! Mialeigh (my awesome DR friend) too!

Anyway I am SO satisfied but also exhausted and now going to sleep :D

As a replacement for actual interesting posts (read: life updates and such) I am posting about something that gets me excited in a dorky way.

Namely getting Talliska to circle 50 in DR. :D It actually surprised me mainly because I had no idea the DR GMs watch for people getting milestone circles. Interesting!!

(My hubby just nuzzled me because he thought my excitement was cute. Hee.)

Another dorky tidbit: Jon and I bought Ace Attorney Investigations and are on the final case. This game is a lot of fun! Yay for Ace Attorney.

Anyway, here's the DR log of Talli getting her circle. :3

I'm SO worn out lately... Just churning out these recruiting lessons for the White Rose over and over. :x

I've written and tested 6 out of 7. Of course, I won't take all the credit, Samarah has done plenty of work on her part as well. She's writing the scripted versions, I'm writing the notes versions. Sometimes our opinions on how lessons are arranged differ slightly; that means I have to do more writing to arrange it as I see fit.

I have never done so much work for a Dragonrealms organization in my LIFE until now. I bet you COLLEGE will be easier. *smirks* But I love what I'm doing because the Order needs the foundation of the recruiting program. Even if I or Samarah are gone, other people can take what we've written down and do good things with it.

Sure it's just a game. But... it's a GOOD game. And I'm even learning good teamwork, writing and editing skills. So it can't all be bad!

With my next bit of news, though, I've entered a whole new level of DR crazy.

I spent this entire last week slaving over Order of the White Rose documents. Yep that's right! For no pay and no gain, and even MORE insane, for a game!

But I was a bonafide geek for years now, I suppose I can't hide it.

I'm actually only halfway through the work, but made a serious breakthrough finishing the last two documents. So I'm feeling really good right now.

I'm looking at my rpol games and realizing "sheesh, those aren't even hard compared to what I was doing for the Order!" Hah! Yep, the complexity of writing recruit training lessons -- given information that takes some interpretation to write in a coherent manner -- defeats any difficulty I've had with RPoL recently.

Okay, maybe I still hate writing Exalted combat right now. But I think ANY RP post would be a break over all that nitpicking over lesson wording. *wobbles*

Right now though I really just want to rest (and by rest I mean poke at facebook apps and mess with the few RPoL posts I AM committed to doing this week).

Utena/Anthy hurt/comfort fic. I read one earlier today and got all "eeee~" about it.

I find it amusing that those two have to be one of my favorite couples in anime OF ALL TIME </kanye> but they're two girls. And I still consider myself straight!

Anyway, I never really thought their gender really mattered. In Revolutionary Girl Utena, that matters way less than the feelings between the characters. As I'm sure I've said before, I think that's what I like about it. Love that transcends gender. That concept has always fascinated me way more than loving, or being attracted to the male gender.

Lately I have been thinking again about my ideas to continue Reborn Again. How I wish there was enough energy and inspiration in my body to do that now! I still need to heal, mentally, though. Everyone's worried about me, because I'm always so worn out, to the point I can't even keep up with my games and I have to keep taking mini-breaks from Dragonrealms.
