I'm so, so glad you brought Felicia into the game. She's amazing and hilarious - I love reading her interactions with Warren and everything about her flirting with the surly German is the best thing ever. You're a delight to write with and it's been such a sincere pleasure getting to know you better OOC on gchat. :) I look forward to many fun plot things in the future - thank you for being awesome!

AJ, you're just tops. You always make me feel super included and encourage me to be a better logger and participator in plots. While I don't know much about how you play Scott or Stephen, I am always SUPER EXCITED to see Susan Storm come onto the scene. Thanks for just being you! :)

I love your Emma. She is seriously one of my favorite characters. I know your life is like all over the place and crazy busy, but I feel like this is 100% the definition of a situation where I would take quality over quantity any day. :) Her interaction with Wade is always entertaining and writing with you is so fun. Once your life is calmer, I hope we get to write together more!

Katie! Katie, Katie, Katie. :) Meeting you in DC was so fun, even if I was a massive flake who forgot the directions to the cafe. *coughs* Sorry again. <3. I love how grounded your ideas and plans are - and how you don't mind changing them a little when we're brainstorming for eXcal. Which, speaking of - you've been such a great help when it comes to getting that group off the ground. I know things haven't gone according to plan, but it's still been so much easier having you in my corner than it would have been otherwise.

Jennie is such a strong character. I know where you plan to go with her and I can't wait to see what you have planned for her once she's there. Amadeus is so exceedingly ridiculous, but you play it so well. I've enjoyed reading through his journal entries, which are always hilarious, and his interaction with Quentin is amazing.

Re: Ben

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

You, sir, are a treasure. *grins* Seriously, though - Ben, I love writing with you. Our logs have been some of the smoothest, fastest ones I've done in XP. It's a genuine pleasure to brainstorm with you, then see those plans come to fruition. :) I can't wait for Ev to get to the mansion all official-like, and getting him into eXcal will be so fun. Miles is amazing, Quentin is such a jerk but I love him, and Ev - well. You know I adore him.

Thank you for extending your hospitality in DC, it was wonderful to meet you in person (hi, Arthur!) and I had such a wonderful time last year. <3.

Re: Cai

[erindubitably.livejournal.com]

Gosh. Just as you said below, I looooove the Dom/Wade dynamic and can't wait to log more of them. You are an excellent writer and so easy to bounce off of, which is a rare and admirable skill.

Re: Chris

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

:) Chris, you bring so much enthusiasm to XP. It's been wonderful seeing you jump in and get your feet wet. I think Alison's hilarious and I cannot wait to see how you take 14 and run with her. I'm particularly looking forward to the couple of logs we just discussed re: training. *grins* Also looking forward to the next few plots in 14's arc. Just generally looking forward to seeing more of her!

Re: Da'mien

Even though my Sam is long gone, I'll always remember those John and Sam logs we did for Genosha. That was one of my favourite moment from my entire time in XP, it was so much fun to write. Your John is fantastic and I really should be bugging you to get him and Bobby together some time. :)

Dex

Re: Dex

[erindubitably.livejournal.com]

Yeah I guess you're good or whatever.

No but really, you're a juggernaut of gritty plotting and effortless worldbuilding and it's a pleasure to be in your plots and logs because of how well thought out and cohesive they are. And you write old and grumpy so very well. ;)

Also, Hank! :D

I know we only just finished that one log with Dom and Wade, but man. They are ridiculous. I love it so, so much. :) I'm so glad you brought her into the game. I've also really enjoyed reading through your Hank comments and logs - you write him so well! I can't wait to see more of them both onscreen. <3.

Re: Eva

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

<3. Eva, you're another of the European contingent who helped me through the 2-5a slump over the last two years. :) Thank you for always being willing to chat with me about random things. Brainstorming things out with you is always fun - you have such great ideas and you're always willing to share/offer an opinion. I'm glad you're feeling better and I can't wait to see where the latest plot with Hope winds up going!

Frito

Re: Frito

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

Fritoooooooooooooooooo. Hi. :)

Thank you for literally always being willing to talk things out with me, whether it's IC stuff or OOC. Your encouragement and advice has been invaluable - basically since I got into XP in 2010. *amused* Knowing I can count on you to thwack me when I'm being irrational is seriously one of the best things - stabilizing. I hope I manage to provide you with even part of that feeling in return. Thank you for always entertaining my ridiculous ideas/impulses where Wade is concerned. Writing him is always fun when I'm writing him with you - some of his craziest things in XP are a direct result of brainstorming with you. :)

Re: Gwen

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

*jazz hands* Gwen! Gwen, you're amazing - seriously one of the most talented writers I've had the pleasure of writing with throughout the years. I love Kitty - she's quirky, like your characters always are, and so much fun to throw my guys at.

I'm so glad Cass was in charge of picking games for you two in 2006. :P Cause if she hadn't been, I wouldn't have met you. And then I wouldn't have met a lot of really excellent people or played in some truly wonderful games. <3.

Re: Jason

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

I'll miss Korvus, he was truly unique and such a fun character to read. I know we didn't log all that much, but I enjoyed reading his logs and comments. Hopefully we'll still see you around in plotting and socking from time to time. :)

Re: Jeff

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

Jeff, you're a delight. First, thanks for putting this whole meme together. *grins* It's just in time - I feel like a lot of people can use some love right about now. Second, it will never not be hilarious to me how you're playing Bobbi and Bobby. So thank you for that. Third, it's so fun, reading both of them IG - I love throwing my characters at them and can't wait to see where you go with both of them! I'm so, so glad that you're back in your Bobbi groove - we should log her and JP together... and also talk about a thing for XFI maybe. *hands* :)

Jen

Jen, player of Wanda Maximoff and Rahne Sinclair.

Re: Jen

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

You're magical. *grins* I mean, yes - you're awesome and a fantastic person to hang out with IRL, too. I love writing with you - our logs with Wanda and JP have been some of the funniest I've written. Chatting with you is also always so much fun - I love that you don't mind brainstorming things out and then you have zero problem following through with them. <3.

Jillian

Re: Jillian

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

Jillsssssssssssss. I love you, you're amazing. I know your life can be so, so hectic, but you never once made me feel like I was poking you at inconvenient times when I was bored out of my mind in the middle of the night. <3. I love writing with you - North is always so deadpan, but in a lovable way, and Rachel is brilliant. :) I look forward to seeing where you go with both of them. <3 And to hopefully getting to be a part of your plans!

Hurry up and bring Johnny back already! I want to see what you do in the new world!

Jo

Jo, player of Carmilla Black and Doreen Green.

Re: Jo

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Jo is awesome. So are Carmilla and Doreen, two characters who I'd probably know very little about if not for your fantastic representations of them. They're your characters now as far as I'm concerned, and their XP versions are all I see when I see them anywhere else.

Also as an aside I managed to find out about RWBY through you mentioning it on Twitter I think it was, and on Steam with a review of the game version. I need to thank you for that because I'm a big fan of the show now and wouldn't have checked it out if not for you.

I hope you're doing well, and here's hoping 2016 is much, much better for you. <3

Kale

Kale, player of Jessica Jones.

Re: Kale

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

I remember when you added Jessica Jones and, while I had some semblance of an idea who she was, I didn't really know what to expect. You ended up making me really enjoy the character before she took Netflix and the internets by storm with Krysten Ritter's portrayal of her. She's such a great character and I love our logs with her and Bobbi. :)

Kate

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Kate, player of Angelo Espinosa and Kurt Wagner.

Re: Kate

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Kate! I'm sorry I've not bugged you for logs lately, I really miss having Sam and Kurt being roommates and the fun logs we used to have with them. Likewise, Sarah loved training with her fencing instructor as well. And Sam and Angelo were good buddies, and now I'm missing my old toons, whoops. >.>

But yes, I do admire how you've kept both of your Phase 1 characters going in Phase 2, and how much they've grown and developed under your hand over the years. You're such a fantastic writer and probably the quickest person to log with, like, ever. I always enjoy logging with you and reading your characters, and here's to writing together again in the near future! :)

Lauren

Re: Lauren

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

You and I, madam, need to actually log together. *grins* I love reading Illyana - her journal threads give me life, they are so ridiculously funny. Thank you, again, for the most amazing tea mug ever, it was seriously one of the best gifts I got this past Christmas. :)

Luke

Re: Luke

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

L, you are so supportive - it's wonderful talking with you OOC and I absolutely adore what you're doing/where you're going with both Artie and Xavin. I can't wait to see what you do with both of them next. :) I hope we get to continue the JP/Xavin friendship and I would love to get some more Wade/Artie onscreen at some point. <3.

Re: Mackinzie

[writteninsable.livejournal.com]

Maaaaaaaaaaaack. *grins* 2010-joining-year-buddy. Chatting, whether on the phone, in vidchat, or in gchat, is so much fun. <3. You are always so willing to brainstorm for anything, whether it involves your character directly or not. You have such a great grasp of canon and a willingness to poke it/prod it into fitting something in XP. I love what you've managed to accomplish character development-wise with Molly. I know rebooting Jean was a tumultuous decision for you, but I think you've managed to get her to a point where it can only get easier now.

Re: Marlena

[x-velocidad.livejournal.com]

MAR! You are one of the most creative people I know, for one thing. And you are so sweet and kind, and you write an adorable but complex Pixie. I really get a sense of who she is from your words, no matter how long or short the sentences, and that is not an easy thing to do.
