Okay! I have achieved Starbucks. Aaaand I am here for the next six hours, and as we know, the rules of the road are boring enough that it is tempting to just kill pedestrians rather than learn them by rote.

Therefore: entertain me.

Au contraire, I admire your courage. Also, I am something of a fandom commitmentphobe, and I adore the Aubreyad so ridiculously that it scares me. I WISH I KNEW HOW TO QUIT YOU, O'BRIAN. I think if I apped anyone from it, I might never love again. D:

(Also also: huge canon. Huge. That is the sort of thing that makes the RPer in me scream and run away.)

The canon is terrifyingly huge. All of my copies are now full of earmarked, and I have a fat notebook full of biographical details/opinions/important quotes/attitudes to the various. The most difficult thing is that PO'B does things like, "Stephen spoke with the clerk about intelligence matters" or "Stephen apologised" or "Stephen made conversation on the subject of petrels" but I actually have to write what he is saying most of the the time.

The plot though, OMG, the plot. In-Game plot has spyhatting and attempted murders and Hakeswill and angst like nothing I have experienced, and then, among various out-of-game stories, a group including Stephen and the Duke of Wellington are attempting to overthrow the White Witch in Narnia. I could EAT this RPG I love it so much.

I honestly think I feel romantic feelings towards the Aubreyad sometimes. It makes me glow with love.

Muahaha, I think if milliways_bar does anything spectacularly, it is crossover plots of awesomeness and fabulosity. Of epic note: the Dark Tower/Good Omens/Firefly(/Harry Potter/Neverwhere) crossover that has been running since 2005. Some of the best folks I have ever played with, and some of the best writing I have ever done and am ever likely to do, period.
