MEME: Anon Love

[weirderthanthou]

Yeah, yeah, I know, it hasn't been six months, but it feels like it might as well have been, with the amount of extremely awesome new characters that have shown up lately.

So hey, you all know the drill:

1. Make a comment to this post with the name of your character/s.
2. Go through and leave anonymous comments in other characters' threads saying something nice about them. (This can be about the character or how they're played, or even something nice about the player; any of this is acceptable as long as they're nice things.)
3. Read the comments your characters get and feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside.

Don't forget to check back in throughout the day to give people more love! And I challenge you all to ping in one character at a time this time.

Jesse Faden

[weirderthanthou]

You know, like this.

Re: Jesse Faden

[(Anonymous)]

This is major anonfail but oh well, I am highly looking forward to getting to do more with Jesse outside of the constraints of a canon catchup based on a very dumb movie. I love her mix of quiet introspection and absolute badassitude.

Atton Rand

[suitably_heroic]

So retro.

Re: Atton Rand

[(Anonymous)]

Reading through Atton's personal journey lately has been so compelling and just some really great stuff, and I'm really excited to see where he ends up or what else might be in store for it as it progresses.

Aloy

[not_of_the_nora]

Even our neglected babies who deserve better.

Margo Hanson

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

And the loud up-and-comers on the block.

Re: Margo Hanson

[(Anonymous)]

Margo is so much fun to have around. I love her giving other characters the business.

Lucifer Morningstar

[my_own_advocate]

Is this dork still here?

Re: Lucifer Morningstar

[(Anonymous)]

Lucifer is in my heart FOREVER. He's done a lot of growing up since he originally arrived on the island while still continuing to be so utterly and occasionally maddeningly himself, and it has been/continues to be a joy to see and a privilege to get to play with.

Llewellyn Watts / Will Halstead

[pocketpretzels]

Randomly waking up in the middle of the night gets me in on the ground floor of a meme, yessss.

Llewellyn Watts

[(Anonymous)]

Having any character from Murdoch Mysteries in our game is always a treat, but your portrayal of Llewellyn is just flat out enjoyable. The dynamic between him and Steven is simply heartwarming, and I love reading their interactions. The 'Truth Day' post was particularly adorable.

Dean Winchester

[single_man_tear]

For the one and only character I have.

Re: Dean Winchester

[(Anonymous)]

I'm getting in on the easy one before anyone else, but....and it goes without saying....IT IS SO GREAT TO HAVE YOU BACK IN GAME!

And Dean has been a delight so far to really drive that point home!

Harley Quinn

[totalwildcard]

I swear I'm awake!

Re: Harley Quinn

[(Anonymous)]

Harley is one of those characters who have enough crazy that it's easy to overdo it and wind up with a caricature, but you seem to have found the perfect balance between the silly, the naivete and the person underneath right out the gate. I love it.

Graham Cracker

[pun_king]

Do you know what a big ask that is?

Re: Graham Cracker

[(Anonymous)]

Graham is such a fun character to read and interact with. His news reports in the game are hilarious. His enthusiasm and the joy he brings everywhere is contagious. I can tell you're having so much fun with him.

Summer Smith

[somethingwithturquoise]

My god, I'll be pinging all day!

Re: Summer Smith

[(Anonymous)]

Summer, you are my top shelf problematic fave, okay? I love watching her try to maneuver messily through complicated emotional crap - some of her own making - and wind up in unexpected places she probably wouldn't be in if her story as a character was... cleaner. You've always been good at taking creative risks and complicating stories by sticking to your guns on your character's weaknesses, but it feels as if with Summer you've hit a whole new stride.

And now I can't stop reading her threads, damn you.

Eleanor Zarrin.

[what_big_teeth]

And then there's just the matter of figuring out any sort of order...

Re: Eleanor Zarrin.

[(Anonymous)]

Part of my love for Eleanor is definitely the choice of PB, but I'm also enjoying seeing how she grows on the island and how different she is from your other characters. The variety of people you play is always amazing to me.

Amaya Blackstone.

[special_rabbit]

I already screwed up doing it by Time of Arrival.

Re: Amaya Blackstone.

[(Anonymous)]

ZOINKS.

You know how much fun it's been watching Amaya, no-keep-all-that-squishy-stuff-away-from-me Amaya, fall in love and go all, dare I say it, goopy? While staying the practical, just-a-little-weird blacksmith we know and love? Brilliant. Adorable. Grade-A character work.

Gladiolus Amicitia.

[sword_chocobro]

And Alphabetical is just right out, too.

Re: Gladiolus Amicitia.

[(Anonymous)]

Shirtless Gladio is such great fun.

How in the name of all that's holy do you manage to play all of these vastly different characters and play them all so well? And manage to be an Awesome, open-fo-anything person OOC?

I'm not worthy!

Liberty Hazlett.

[outofthequiver]

At this point, the randomness is just part of the fun, I guess.

Re: Liberty Hazlett.

[(Anonymous)]

You know, I think it's really cool how you've let Libby keep her faith, even after she got away from her family. She's still a believer, even though she has so many reasons not to be. You take the expected character choices and turn them on their ear, but do so it a really thoughtful and compelling way.

Rosa Diaz.

[died8yearsago]

Although probably a good way to forget someone.

Re: Rosa Diaz.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm very happy Rosa's stuck around to be her surly self in her classes!

Prompto Argentum.

[hashtag_chocobro]

Will I make it without a combo breaker?

Re: Prompto Argentum.

[(Anonymous)]

This goes for both Prompto and Gladio, but I hate love how much they make me want to dig out FFXV. :)

Boc.

[beautiful_boc]

Also, I'm feeling super sick today...

Re: Boc.

[(Anonymous)]

You know I love Boc. He is so sweet and deserves good things and I'm really liking how he's finally starting to accept that maybe people here might not mind his company.

Ignis Scientia.

[chef_chocobro]

So this'll hopefully be a very welcome distraction.

Re: Ignis Scientia.

[(Anonymous)]

Ignis 😭 God "straight-laced and buttoned-up dude who is secretly seething with underlying emotions" is one of my favorite tropes and you knock it out of the park with him. I love his depth and complexity and I love (this is actually a through theme with all your characters) his ability to grow. Ignis had such a rich and compelling character and I'm so glad he's here.

Anyway, I am very anonymous, you have no idea who I am.

Yukari Tanizaki.

[id_kill_him]

And I did not almost forget about Yukari! HOW DARE.

Re: Yukari Tanizaki.

[(Anonymous)]

Azumanga Daioh is up there as one of my favorite comics of all time, so I remain absolutely THRILLED to have Yukari in the game!

Diego Hargreeves/Wanda Maximoff/Evan Buckley/Eddie Munson

[scarlet_chaos]

You will get all in one and you will like it.

Re: Diego Hargreeves/Wanda Maximoff/Evan Buckley/Eddie Munson

[(Anonymous)]

You're my favorite, dude -- I love that we talk pretty much daily, and that we also can throw things at each other without a ton of context and just roll with the conversation well. (Like, thank you for making sure I saw a lot of Cheryl Blossom even though I've never seen a frame of Riverdale! You're like an evangelist!) I've had some of my most fun, rewarding threads in this almost 20 year-old game with your characters (including old ones!), and I'm just so sincerely glad we're friends, dude.

Stark

[stykera]

Re: Stark

[(Anonymous)]

You're up for anything, and I especially love when Stark gets to do something fun because it's obvious you're having fun. Plus you're just a great person in general.

Belle

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Re: Belle

[(Anonymous)]

Belle is sweet, romantic and dreamy. And all her library posts based on your life are perfect.

Sam Eagle

[but_mostly_america]

Re: Sam Eagle

[(Anonymous)]

Sam makes me laugh out loud a lot. Sex pollen radio was genius and I need him to do radio every crazy event now okay.

Rey/Sabine/Kitty/the others

[thatwaslucky]

I haven't been around enough to warrant individual threads.

Re: Rey/Sabine/Kitty/the others

[(Anonymous)]

But it is really great seeing you around more! I really hope the trend continues. This fake world just feels a little more complete when your characters are out and about contributing to it.

Irene Adler

[begmetwice]

Why not?

Re: Irene Adler

[(Anonymous)]

Irene is just a spot-on character. I love that she is finally getting to let that softness in her character out - but also getting to let some in.
