whoops forgot this was technically BEFORE everything went to shit but i'll roll with it

[forwantofahorse]

...forget it.

Sorry. I've been up for a while and I get grumpy when I'm tired.

[cryptograms]

I see.

[ There's a pause, then: ]

Well, if you'd ever care for a chance to unwind, there's a few campaigns I'm interested in running or playing. They're much higher difficulty than most others so they may be to your liking.

[forwantofahorse]

...I'd love to play in one, honestly.

I also have a few ideas for running a campaign of my own devising on the backburner, but I think I'd like to see how the game plays in practice for a little while longer before springing it on you and Sasha.

[ Just what he likes to hear! He has no idea if it'll actually help Shannon, but a nice distraction is, in his experience, always welcome. ]

I'd be delighted to play in your campaign once we're done with this one. You picked up the rules and nuances much faster than most people I've taught.

I've always had a fondness for these sort of... narrative games, although I didn't really have any partners for them back home. It's easy to turn my competitiveness into a desire to make the best story possible with everyone else, as cheesy as that may sound.

It's not cheesy at all! That's the very spirit of the game.

[ As for her other comment... well. Ford relates to that far more than he wishes he did - though mostly in the form of wishing that Sayo didn't have to deal with anything resembling the sort of isolation he did. ]

I'm glad you're able to enjoy it here, then. It's frustrating to not have anyone to play with.
