Good Day!
So much death and destruction over at Infusco Bonitas! My Bellatrix is very happy to have taken out a pair of Aurors. Not to mention all the civilian casualties....
It's really, really fun playing bad guys sometimes. I love it. There's so much room to do things, in my opinion, and so many more darker character aspects to explore. Don't get me wrong, I adore my good guys (and my morally ambiguous guys) but there's this sense of being able to really let loose with the baddies. The good guys don't go in for massive, whole scale, grand spectrum carnage. And sometimes, that's just a hell of a lot of fun.
I'm sure I could be more articulate about the joys of playing evil characters, but at the moment I'm still just giddy over Death Eater slaughter. With more on the way!

But yeah, I do miss playing the baddies, but it all came down to how much time I had for things. Though, I like playing the good guys. Ron especially. The Trio in general don't want to kill and yet they still have to win this war, and that's a hard thing to do and those two wants are harder than hell to mesh sometimes.
no subject
I love your Ron. And I am sorry to say it, but what happened last night is so very, very Ron-like. I could just see it. I'm really looking forward to seeing the trio in a more out and out war situation, because it is going to be interesting seeing how they handle it at this point.
no subject
Thanks! I love him too. He's so adorable, stubborn, silly, and wants to be everything and live up to everybody's expectations of him. He still doesn't know how he got Luna, but he isn't asking.
Oh, I know. I saw it and I couldn't help laughing at him, which he didn't like but oh well. But yeah, the three of them doing all the war stuff should be interesting. I hope Ron eventually gets better now that he's been through his first battle.
no subject
The trio just works so well together. They seriously do. They just click in a way I don't usually see in games. I could waz poetic for hours on how brilliantly
no subject
Seriously, thank you. Hermione's definitely the character I'm proudest of, in terms of trying for a very canon portrayal. And I just love her to pieces, the neurotic little twit. *Snuggles her*
no subject
You play one of the most canon Hermiones I have ever seen. And you should be proud of her.
no subject
It's fun trying to strike the right balance between bookish little intellectual-snob, and nice girl just trying to do her best in the world - I love keeping her human and making sure she does stupid things sometimes. ;)
*Bounces at the icon* That icon always makes me so happy.
no subject
But you do it well. I can imagine it would be very hard, which is why I rarely write Hermione. She's just one of those characters that doesn't come easily to me. Lucius, either.
Yes! Happy Joe icon! Because it is all about the Joe happy!
no subject
Man, do not get me started about the Trio, because then we'd be here for hours while I tell the world how much I love them.
And, yeah, the Hermione rocks. She's so bookish and bossy, but underneath she's a real person with feelings and everything. It's a wonderful balance.
I couldn't play Ron the way I do without them, and I think that's why they're good together, because we all ping off each other for everything.
no subject
Why do I have the feeling we've had this conversation before? Or is it just that I like the idea of the DE going muggle hunting?
You guys do ping off of each other awesomely well. For the most part, the game clicks together extremely well. And there's just so much really good interpersonal stuff that isn't shippy or smutty.
no subject
Yeah, espeically Remus and Snape. Oh god, Remus and Snape kill me. Really. First off, the most canon way that relationship would work while they're adults. I love that Remus is totally the mother hen and Snape is the dad that sits in his chair with the news paper and lets Remus-mommy handle things. XD Not to mention Snape is so... Snape. And your Remus is so fucking wonderful and perfect in the game that it's mindblowing. (Because I don't tell you nice things enough.) He keeps them all together and not just because he has to, but because he wants to. He cares about all of them and doesn't want to lose a single one. I do not want to see the day that happens.
Thank you! I love that none of them are together in a shippy way because they're more family than anything else. It's obvious that they care about each other so much, but its doesn't need to be spoken just known.
no subject
I love them together, and I love how they work together. And that's so it. Remus is such a mother-hen type. And yes, Snape is so damn Snape it's not even funny. And good Snapes are very, very rare. *Blushes* Thank you. I do love my Remus, so much.
Yes! It's not shippy and there's no smut for smut's sake. Which is a problem so many games have. It's not focused on pairings or any shit like that.
no subject
Of course! More than welcome, my friend. ^_^ And we all know why Snape is only kind of mellow now. Regular sex. But yeah, amazing Snape. Not wangsty, or goth, or any other shit, just Snape and damn proud of it, bitch.
That is nice. I've never understood "Whooo smut yay!" because really, just go read some fic or write it if that's what you're after. I like that if we're seeing smut, there's a reason for it, otherwise it's assumed that sexually active couples are so. But yes, it's about the people, not the OMG OTP!!!1ELEVEN!!

*seconds the trio love at IB* It's always good to see both players and characters that mesh. Hoorah!
no subject
Yeah, it really is. And IB manages that very, very well. I wouldn't be able to do half of what I have without this group of players.
no subject
*blush* Thank you so much for the love! Everybody's just so damn great, players and charaters, that there should be more love all around. ^_^
