I got a birthday alert for myself from my old LJ musebox and looking at things I wrote 7 years ago is so interesting

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
I've definitely changed a fair amount as an RPer over the years

throwback saturday

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
remember the turtles

MINun
I've lost track of a few people. I think Corie most recently. She's changed plurks a lot.

MINun
But man. I still have such fond memories of all my CH people.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
CH will always hold a special place in my heart for being my first real RP game, all the friends I made there and all the awesome threads we did

nora.
me too! everyone there made me so happy and i only have good feels from all that

MINun
I'd been in quite a few RP games before, but CH is where I first became really close knit with a group of people and it's been a very important place for me.

MINun
I do wish I used FB more often. I have CH people on there who don't use plurk or RP anymore so that's the only place I see them, but it's weird to comment when it's been so long on the rare occasion I log in.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
Yes! I was in such a bad place at the time and having the 24/7 chat going and being able to pop in and always know there were friends to talk to and fun to have was so nice

MINun
Man, same actually. I got a lot of support I needed at the time and I can only hope I managed to do the same for other people.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
I separated RP and RL for so long that I still don't have a lot of RP people on FB. I usually only added people I've known for years or met in IRL

MINun
I do miss it.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
Yeah it really was a game that you felt like you were playing with extended family and not just friends

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
I miss that atmosphere

MINun
Definitely. Like I know we've never actually met, Bex, but I sometimes forget that.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
So like I said I'm really glad I've kept in touch with a fair number of the friends I made there. Because you guys are amazing <3

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
Same!!

MINun
It was an atmosphere where you felt like you were right there with everyone.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
One day we will meet when I visit your end of the ocean again

MINun
Tell me when you do! It's a small country so no matter where you go I should be able to get out to you.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
absolutely! Duckie and I are actually planning a trip once we get our health stuff sorted and are back on our feet again

MINun
Ahh, that's amazing. You guys deserve something nice after all the health troubles you've had.

MINun
And I would really love to meet you both at last.

MINun
I've met Duckie's bro in law but never you guys. This needs fixing one day!

MINun
That was only super briefly, but still!

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
yes I am dying to meet you. and if you still have Chris jacket I can bring Alex jacket and we can have a long overdue Chris and Alex picture we've planned for a million years

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
I remember that!!

MINun
I absolutely do! I gave Leah my original one because it was too big, but I've got the women's one which... is identical except button colour and no pockets.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
it's all good, mine is slightly different too even though it was an official reproduction, i'm assuming so people didn't try to second hand sell it as a real costume piece or something

MINun
Ahhh, possibly, yeah!

MINun
Bring it with you when you manage to get well enough. Maybe we can go look at some filming locations and watch A2A together.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
And it should definitely be easy to meet up with you, we are planning to visit around a lot of places (my old uni, my aunt and uncle, finally go to Cardiff since I never made it before, etc) so we can definitely make it happen

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
that sounds like the best plan

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
we can try to find the real railway arms

MINun
My little town is weirdly connected so I can get most places in the UK super easily. I'm sure we can swing something.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
good! yay i am so excited <3

wishingwillow
Lots of great memories.

๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ โ
so many awesome friends and amazing threads
