Actor left the group behind in the campus library, they just didn't understand, he felt.
You don't RP to follow rules, to build giant spreadsheets in your head and adjust the totals as time permitted. You RP to have fun, to enjoy yourself, to create, with others, a world in which you'd either want to live or want to help fix itself.
Actor didn't want to continue like this, just another dream-builder in a world full of sleepers, but he couldn't believe that there was no place that he could go in which they'd relax the rules, let go of the calculators and spreadsheets and just create a story and enjoy it.
"Let go of your chains, and be free." He muttered to himself as the cold biting winds of another miserable winters afternoon rose up around him and began to bite his exposed flesh, left to the elements since that morning when the heat was unbearable.
He mentally updated one of his big lists.
Reason's numbers 12-14 to hating this city: wrote:
12: The Cold in winter.
13: The Lack of a decent gaming groups.
14: The random Heat waves in winter.
He reached his car, an old rusted through toyota, getting into it he could feel the tension of the last week behind his shoulders.
<i>I need to calm down, I really do.</i> He thought to himself. <i>Its not that big of a deal, just relax and focus on whats important.</i>
Whats important to me Numbers 18-21 wrote:
18: My degree is almost done
19: My job is going well.
20: The people on the internet all live in fear of me
21:I really need a girlfriend.
Putting the car into gear Actor began to drive home the shortest way possible. <i>All I want is an adventure.</i> He thought as the music of his nearly dead radio crackeled to life.
A Flock of Seagulls began to struggle through the speakers. I run so far away.
Actor smirked at the song, listening to it as the distance between one destination and another began to change.
Far away the sun began to set.
