Kickin' the ol' bucket

Didn't really do any blogs for bout a good 5 months or so. Honestly didn't even look at the site here for a good 4 of those short months. Definitely a hop, skip, and a jump away eh. I ain't been up to much in the meantime, memories been a tad fuzzy as of late, been wanting to relive some older days to patch that right up. Started playing Terraria again after who knows how long, mostly been doing it with a buddy that had never played the game before, yet despite me having killed Golem as the farthest boss I've reached before, all the updates to the game has left me finding stuff just as new as him. It's been a nice experience for the most part. Course when reliving older days it got me thinkin of this place again.

I started reading a neat fic called Frequency. I'd recommend any of ya'll to give it a whirl to see if ya like it how I did. Additionally quite conveniently my dear buddy ol pal started writing again, so I've been helping them with that. Not even going to entertain the thought of writing here again. I've burned that bridge too many times. I've just started writing again, mostly just small character moments.

I've grown a soft appreciation for character over all else. In an action scene I don't care how much cool stuff happens or who wins what battle, I just want to know how that character expresses themselves and is challenged personally through that fight. I don't care about this complex magic system where you can create entire puzzles for the main character to solve with enough pieces to where you could technically solve it before they do. I just wanna know the characters. I can think up all the world building stuff and complex systems easily, I do it all the time when trying to make a game or when I'm reading through things. What I can't pull out my ass so easily, is character, and sometimes I think that the reason I like it that aspect so much is because I just want to know more people in a way...eh fuck it I'm too lazy to actually meet someone, time to go back into hibernation.
