<quote source="/post/3054/thread" timestamp="1417667275" author="@kat]No, we had many great years on Gaia with the One Night Stand and Ocean, plus whatever other side projects and threads we tried out.
Just, idk. Everyone I knew from the last ten years stopped writing. They grew up and went to college and started careers and families.
I can't blame them for being busy elsewhere, but I miss them, ya know? I have ten years of plots no one will understand, and I'm stuck lugging it around to play the characters I most enjoy.
Annnnnd it's given me serious issues trusting other writers to commit. I end up avoiding getting close to other people initially because if they fuck off to live their lives, I'm stuck wondering what I did wrong. lol
Anyway, Gaia was good for what it was. Maybe we can bait people out of there?
HouseEros is another one to pluck people from, but that's likely a lot of PWP rpers.[/quote]I was lucky enough to hit The End of an adventure before reallife took over for everyone. Still am friends with several of the folks I used to RP with (one of them even came to our wedding!) but I don't know if they've gotten real life settled down to the point where there can be RP again.
...Sure would be cool to get those characters out of retirement. O.o *uber nostalgia moment*
Unrelated note: And I'm *still* sick. Boss just called to give me crap. *siiiiighs*

Dreams come in a size too big so we can grow into them.
