Return of the Geeks
Jan. 12th, 2012 10:46 pmRPG meet-up tonight!
We haven't done the game since November actually - first it was Thanksgiving, then everyone was sick, then Christmas and New Years. Just way too many things going on for everyone, and even when we had a night scheduled, we kept having to cancel at the last minute. Which was very sad, because not only is my group full of awesome fun people, but RPG night is my big leaving-the-house social event of the week most of the time. I really started to miss it!
Took us awhile to get back into the swing of things - both the guys were no-shows (although C should be back next week), and it's been so long since we played that even the GM had half-forgotten what we were doing last time. Once we'd all been re-briefed on what was going on, though, the session turned out pretty awesome. I complained a little bit about how I haven't had anything to use my skills on (I'm a socially/technologically inept mercenary with mostly weapons/combat skills and we've been doing a lot of research and hacking, so I end up spending a lot of time standing around waiting for other people to do things for me), so for the first time since we started in September we got to try combat. I enjoyed shooting the thugs that tried to jump me and L in that alley way too much. And I even won my first RPG fight!
By the end of next week, we might finally get off this ship and down onto the planet. This is like the longest tutorial quest ever, I swear.
