[QUOTE="El Jefe, post: 2824679, member: 19990"] Rystil Arden's comments in post 810 was nigh onto verbatim what I'd answer for this.I think they've already been answered. I do get the feeling that the interaction between my character and Scarlet went a little farther than you'd originally envisioned it. I mean, honestly, I've never heard anyone wax poetic about the beauty of a cotton blossom blowing across the fields before! ;) Well, of course I enjoyed it! Mucho thanks for doing something quite different from the usual dungeon crawl. By far, my favorite part was the amazing humor of it all. Some of the dialogue, especially in the first thread, was as funny as anything I've paid $7 to see in recent years. If it's been a few months, go back and read some of it...you'll see what I mean. I just now surfed to find a good example. I had a certain incident in mind, but while looking for it, I stumbled across this, which takes place during one evening's festive dancing:Ok, if the thought of a big, furry orc screaming "Yehaw!" while spinning Lasair around so fast that her feet barely touch the ground doesn't bring a smile to your face, nothing will. FoH is just absolutely chock-full of moments like that. The least favorite part, sadly, was the way the whole thing seemed to run out of steam like a leaky calliope near the end. I think just about all of us lost track of which day it was at some point or other, and had to check previous posts to figure out where we were. Not all of that was something that you could control, however, and it's all been discussed before.The problem with a dropped character is that unless someone gives you the courtesy of a note stating that they're dropping out for good, you're never quite sure just how much of an NPC their PC has become.
