Remember when we'd bounce ideas off each other and follow where they went, world-building and character-designing and history-editing and skill-forging, bad puns and worse innuendo and obscure media references and little bursts of things one of us was excited to share with the other because now those facts could live in two heads instead of just the one...
I miss that. I still miss that, and I still miss you.
I know. It's okay. Time's past.
I enjoyed those times with you. Thank you for them.

@zx3 @kelseyhusky @Soreth Here's to the Past and Future Inn, Illuminati University, and what the hell, the goddamned Dionysian Scream where this mess all started. *downs three shots with Martian ferocity and fast-pitches all three glasses into the fireplace*
@Momentrabbit
*Hugs very softly*
@Momentrabbit Yeah. *squeeze* I ponder what went wrong with all that every day. It feels these days like the very structure of social media is working against us.
I won't lie to you. I wouldn't go back and undo a thing, but I don't think I'd try to start something like it ever again, either. I've come out the other end knowing things about the ways people get along (and don't) that just can't be undone.
No more Callahan's Saloon stuff for me. Or at least, next time round, I'm just a patron.😜
