Background

It is true that I have been swamped at work as we plan a 2 million dollar new building decision. Also true is that the 4th and 5th players who came in later, have more on their back stories to work out, while the first three could have been finished pages ago and are all on side quests. As I want all the players to come together at once, I am spending more time with them to finish up. So yeah, its been a drag.

However, the ugly truth is that I am uncomfortable with the man on man fantasy and it is hard for me to role play these scenes. Funny, I can play a lesbian, or a girl with a guy, because I can still fantasize about the girl in the room. I am glad you can love anyone. It's a gift, just not my gift, and I suspect that it doesn't work for the other players either. I've needed a break.

I hope this does not upset you. I tried to set my issues aside and I just can't. I would like to know if you can adjust Jacob's character in some way for the purposes of playing this?

HooHoo! I did realize later that you probably wouldn't be doing anything on that score in the group chat. Sorry that I can't make that chat connection for you. I do want to see you do that in front of the dwarf in the main forum though, and get his reaction if he would make one at all in the forum. It took me putting a girl next to him in game, to get him to write anything about his background. Copy me on that text you get! Ha!

I am really loving matching his brusque humor in the back story. I never really talked to your brothers before, so this RP is funny to me to play dnd with him. There is not the same connection with him as I do not talk to him except in character, so him getting laid in his back story is no big deal, besides his girlfriend being such not my type!

I can't do that with the golliath or aasimar. I know them personally and locally and they are married to each other!

FYI only, I have made a connection with the newest female player that applied from gamersplane. Its fantasy, in game, like a romance novel, but still makes my heart pound that much harder.

Speaking of SL, what did happen with C? I apologize again about not asking about her and responding to your updates about her. The whole SL thing blew up in my face and I didn't want to deal with it. Girls!

C and I had made alt characters to allow us explore some wilder things she wanted to experience. A few years after she disappeared, I wanted a new start so I logged into my alt and one day noticed her alt had logged in at some point and joined many groups. Her 1st life profile said 28F married. It made me realize, the 3 years she had with me, were her exploring those themes online behind her RL husband's back. It did explain why her mic used to go out a lot, then mysteriously start working 20 mins later, lol.
I admit, I can't blame her, as SL is supposed to be a second life away from your first one, and that was her fantasy vehicle. I totally underrated your heart pounding with the new girl, and if you can work it out, a MMF side adventure would cause some heart pounding over here, too. That could prove to be very hot!
Even open to a hot MPC encounter if you'd enjoy that. It's never enough for me to have it done for me, it needs to be something all are into to make it good. Having said that, two red-blooded, creative hearts like ours should be able to find multiple ways to get said hearts pounding.

That’s more to Claudia than I suspected, but not surprised. I’m so sorry she broke your heart in the process though it is wonderful that she could show you around SL more than I could ever. And I thought your first SL wife was wild! My year in SL taught me that I like vanilla and lots of it! Lol. I like heros, and tragic backstories, and Paladin quests and clever rogues and justice (and evil villains to defeat, and especially deceptively good villains). I love Love and Beauty between a woman and man and it’s just my genre. I found that with Christi, and I have three beautiful children to prove it. Since she took ill five years ago, I have raised the kids and indulged in RP more, but my interests are the same. Being the hero, slaying Dragons, protecting those I love.

Nobel and beautiful and inline with the vision I've always had of you, my friend. Even though periods of limited communication, you've been my most trusted friend and ally since the 80's. I am sorry for the trials and illness, and completely understand the indulgence. Let us be heroic together!

Ok, I'll play straight hero. I just don't want to be left out.
