You live rent free in my mind, but for probably different reasons.

Like idolation, humourous, well spoken, easy to follow, informative, and gosh darn you're pretty in your profile pic

I missed the deadline this year, because of a family crisis. My Mom had an accident and broke her knee. On the plus side, my job has very generous family leave policy, and I will be with her in Maine through the end of the year. And, I've got a story 90% ready for next year.

Here's sending some holiday healing magic. I hope she has as easy a process as is feasible. She's lucky to have you there with her as well - love that you can do that!

Hope your mom gets better

That's kinda creepy.
Now I'm looking around wondering if everyone is also someone else?

I don’t have time to pretend to be someone else.

I don’t have time to pretend to be someone else.

But is that because your real identity doesn't allocate enough time to "you"?

 

[NaughteeDragon]

I'm telling you, all day, every day. Whiny maidens, "Naughtee, am I pretty enough?" "Naughtee, she stole my favorite necklace." Then there's all the knights trying to prove themselves and save their fair loves. Then, God forbid, you want to go out and pick up some take out for dinner. You would not believe how testy royal families get when you show up with two or three suits of heirloom armor and ask for a refill.
And who would have thought that kobolds could be so needy. "Oh, great dragon, the tribe of ogres are hunting us to extinction. Please, oh great God, save us." You have any idea gassy I get after eating 3 or 4 ogres? Then princesses start bitching again...
As soon as I figure out which one of them is breedable, I'm torching the rest so I can get some fucking rest.

I can take some of those princesses off your hands. In my experience, they talk a big game but fold pretty easily. Especially when you have a tail...

 

[NaughteeDragon]

Don't even get me started on them and the tail. "Oh, Naughtee, is it my turn with the tail?" "Just the tip, I'm saving myself." "Well of course she can take that much of it, she's a total slut."
No matter how pretty she is, some guy somewhere is sick and tired of putting up with her shit....



Okay, I apologize for hijacking the thread. I haven't had a chance to dig that character out in forever.

That was kinda funny.
