Absolutely!

Okay, well... I'm not promising anything. As I said, we wanted to ask y'all first, and then approach her. :) And I think she would be down for creating her own character. I imagine her "backstory" would build her up to close to our levels, too. Just so she doesn't feel out of place in the battles our party might face?

For sure. That will just make doing a back story more fun. We can pull the story from a different perspective that way. She can go as slow or fast as she likes in the backstory to fit her schedule, as Kitty and/or I are on almost all the time.

Hey Nate, don’t get concerned when you see your post missing, I asked Rod to delete it.

no prob! but thanks for explaining, just in case I got confused. It makes sense to remove it, so I don't care. I'm not one to throw a hissy fit or anything. lolololololol

Also, hope you didn't think I was being snarky with the way I phrased that. It's just the way the phrase developed in my mind. But I was not making fun of you. I realized that it was easy to see the modifier difference and skip over the die. But, you know, I'm overexplainin' now. hahaha

Oh no no no, you're fine! I don't have an issue at all with you pointing out the stats and numbers, I just needed the original message to change per Jacob's request and that meant the original message you posted quoting it had to go too.

Ah. Kon's pouting thing? He's so sensitive. I was beginning to wonder if he is still throwing a hissy fit, as we are still waiting on him today.

EDIT: the irony that I posted this at the same time that Kon posted his action...

Once again, Jacob apparently decided to rewrite the narrative so that he could majestically and heroically be the one to save Kit, despite the DM already having narrated that we all worked together to free her. Sigh.

Revisionist? He's calling me out for revisionist history because I changed my text to fit the narrative that happened while I was typing it. But then, when he replies to the revised version and claims the ointment, I'm being rude by pointing out that he couldn't have done that? I just wanted the person who needed healing to get it.

breathe. Just breathe.

I'm torn between encouraging you to relax and pointing out that Jacob has done many a revisions in his own "temper tantrums".

yeah. I don't consider correcting for typing something that doesn't make sense given what has transpired while you type it a "revision."

I do consider his "this is how it will be told in song" and "Jacob to the acrobatic rescue" as being revisioning. I try not to go against what others establish.

I think I'm just a little edgy / irritable with him on the subject of the narrative. He's irked me a few too many times on that. I'll try to be more chill about it and give him some slack.

Lmao! I think he's pressed a nerve for all of us as of late, the both of them really. I was trying to calm Rod down during the fight tonight because of it. Honestly, he's right, sometimes, it's super fast! But go back and edit it or delete your post.

And once again, thank you Kitty for your help last night. I was on my last nerve trying to not "edit" their actions but stay within an overall narrative. Have they not heard of collaboration? I have a mind to talk to Thomas about it, but I know where that will go.

Just thought I would share something I just chatted with Rod about... I'm really anxious about all of us dying in this next battle. We've been taking rough hits (single-hit kills) in these build-up battles, and the boss-battle is getting kinda intimidating. I'm gonna be real sad if I lose my fancy sword... I doubt that the DM would be inclined to allow our party's journey to up and end at this point, so I imagine he would come up with some clever way to revive all of us, but... not without a cost.

Or you can win the battle lol.

Honestly, it’s a concern for me too! With no ability to heal, I worry!! But I worry over everything so I feel better knowing I’m not the only one that’s worried! I don’t want any of these characters to die!!!

Hey Nate, I have a question for you. I know you and I think one of your kids have Asperger's so I'm hoping maybe you've seen this or experienced it and can shed a bit of light for me. My daughter who's an Aspy too came to me and was saying that she's struggled with focus since she was about 6 years old. Is an inability to focus something you or your little one had problems with?

She told me it happens to her a lot with conversations, but with the idea of getting her license now in her head, she's worried she won't be able to focus if she tries to drive.
