Well I had a pretty good weekend, a hideously drunken friday evening - which I really needed to take my mind off some things, it was nice just to have some buds around and get sloshed and watch some silly films (loaded weapon, spaceballs) even if my HHGG video is knackered, bah.
Saturday was fun too, my character survived an attempt to get him slotted and take over Princeship from a member of his own clan, I had heavy suspicions IC about that it was a trap, but frankly as far as my character was concerned he would just walk right into it and deal with it, arrogant? Yes indeed. Luckily he managed to get out of it and survive, only just.
I always feel somewhat guilty about doing over other peoples characters, but they were all in it against me, and the one I thought who had probably been dominated seemed ok too, so that was alright, a pretty hectic game all-in-all really but fun.
Also a game first LRP wise for me, now I play a lot of LARP and the adrenalin rush is part of the excitement, I don't like real fights at all, but 'pretend' combat with latex swords is close enough that my adrenal glands regularly decide that I'll need the help, when the first challenge came in for the attempt on my character on Saturday they decided that I needed some help then, to my utter surprise. Which made my legs somewhat a bit wobbily but I got through it even though I was so wanting to grab a sword and start letting fly on them all! Glad I kept my head.
Sunday was good as well, a little to my surprise as the last mage game I went to was quite quiet, but there was a good turnout and after an initial slow start characters started talking to each other, personalities and views clashed (the best part of the game, all the debates and talks about everything from weaponry advancements to a new breed of killer cows) and a big combat scene which I survived without a scratch, which made me realise my so-called combat character has a lot of work to do to get himself combat ready - which I'll be working on!
So a good weekend all in all, and I'm happy I enjoyed it all, but still a little morose in another way because I half don't want myself to be enjoying anything right now, just to mope and be depressed and reminisce, but sod that really... the depression and moping anyway
Today is also D-Day for my first day at the gym, oh dear...
