virtualvoyagesAlrighty then. Life has been a bit of a distraction, and I've been failing at being organized, so, er, I'm going to try to get organized here.
First order of business: what do I do about my original idea of journal entries as opposed to the fan fic I've been writing?
Solution: Journal entries will resume/continue. And there will be fan fic. Journal entries are game continuity; fan fic is, obviously slight alternate timeline/alternate universe/whatever, and should be considered to have diverged immediately after chapter one (for smuggler continuity) and to have diverged somewhere before that for agent continuity. I realize this is temporally wonky. I will also have to get back to you on divergence from bounty hunter continuity once she's involved. Because having things nice, tidy, and sensible is apparently beyond me. *headdesk*
I realize that's a bit confusing. And that having two different continuities going on here is a bit confusing. But I miss my in-character reactions to game events entries. And I have my own storyline in mind for my fan fic. Icons and tags should keep things clear, I hope.
Second order of business: 20 days of SWTOR.
nebelstreif proposed this slightly altered meme on swtor.dreamwidth.org/2016.html and their version looks doable, so I figured why not?
Day 01: Introduce yourself
Hi, I'm Mac. (Calling myself Virtual Voyages would just be silly, and Mac is a short form of my last name. I've gone by it before, since my first name is extremely common. It's also appropriate to someone who carries a Swiss Army Knife and is a little too fond of 80s TV.) I write, read, play SW:TOR (and, theoretically, other MMOs *eyes dormant accounts*), love Star Wars, work at a library, and love music and hiking.
What I'm doing here is covered in the sticky post and in the earlier part of this post. *points up*
Um... I live in a neat old apartment building built in the 1930s. I have a pet cat (more like he has a human servant). I am absolutely terrible at introductions. Oh, yes, I play pen and paper role playing games - currently D&D. I live in the mountain west, in a sometimes embarrassing city. I walk to work. I love history. And I have probably now given enough information for (theoretical) stalkers to find me.
As to what I'm like, I'm both extremely shy and love to entertain people. If I believed in astrology, I'd blame my tendency towards polar opposites on being a Gemini. I find life too horrible to take seriously, and I like making people laugh. And I think I've been personal quite long enough.
