@WickedCadrach, do we think Bluebeard's Bride would work well in this community? It is sensual, intimate and horrific. I rather dislike playing BB with my usual group because our relationships are distinctly not sexual and the game leans that way which pushes the conversation into uncomfortable territory, But, because of the established sexual content of most of the conversations at ED, I think it is an excellent fit.

Guilty. I live in one of the least walkable cities after having lived in one that was almost as bad. I would LOVE to NOT own a car... Next poster got the motorcycle out recently.

Not guilty. I detest airports, flying buses and being held captive at an overpriced food court for hours in the name of "security". I would rather hitchhike. Next poster has hitchhiked cross country.

It is a strange animal. It's based on the fairy tale Bluebeard. Bluebeard is immensely wealthy and marries a much young, very poor girl, which lifts her entire family out of poverty. He takes her to his palace and tells her that she may go in any room, except one and gives her the keys. She is the most recent of many wives, all of whom have died. The game is the "Sisters" - different aspects of the Bride's personality, exploring the palace (for the game it can be a mansion, estate, palace or anything else) to determine if the Bride believes Bluebeard to be a good husband or not. It is a horror game at it's root because Bluebeard's mansion is full of trauma, ghosts of his past wives and often terrifying servants. It is deeply sensual and intimate, I highly recommend the purchase of the PDF at the very least. The book is gorgeous - easily one of the best looking RPG books ever made - but its contents are absolutely worth a read. Having run it a couple of times, I really feel like it might truly shine with a woman as the Groundskeeper - it is ultimately a feminine story, about a young wife and a possibly monstrous husband.

Lately I've been rereading Bluebeard's Bride and was struck by how well its sensual body horror fit ED. Is there any interest in this game here? Even if just to chat about it.

Guilty. Or at least potentially guilty. A hotdog can be a sandwich, but only if it's on a bun. Being gluten free, I eat 'em straight (which might not be the best word for it) off the plate. Next poster prefers Hammer "classic" horror over modern fare.

grief counselor

Guilty. A whole rash of things. Food processor, tea kettle, percolator, microwave, mixer - but no toaster. Takes up too much room. Or something. Next poster makes their own pasta.

Guilty. Going to the pool is much more affordable than going skiing. Going for a walk in the summer woods is WAY easier to be done with than sledding - wet snow gear, boots, gloves... Next poster loves to ski.

lost cause

Guilty. The notion of some "magical" match seems ridiculous to me. Happiness is a choice - granted, some people make the choice difficult, but we choose people too... Next poster is feeling really good today.

Never again

Not guilty. I'm animated, often intense, vulgar and honestly, flamboyant. I am loud and kind of irascible, so no. Not really easy going. Often agreeable, but rarely "chill". Next poster has a regular jeweler.

Kind of guilty. I grow my own vegetables and love my harvests. I actually just endure the gardening. Next poster is terrible about trimming their pets' nails.

Not guilty? I am old, but I don't feel old. Next poster is an old soul

Guilty. I'm not sure why I came back. Next poster has not heard the Lou Reed song, Walk on the Wild Side

Not guilty. I'm more of a spider person. Next poster flies a Pride flag or wears a Pride pin.

Not guilty. At least not universally. Shoestring fries can fuck right the fuck off though. Next poster almost didn't answer this accusation because writing interesting accusations is the hardest thing they do all day

Not guilty. I don't thinkthat simply posting adds Reputation - I think you need reactions, and those are actually pretty rare in these forum games. Next poster actually understands how Reputation and EcchiCredits work. I didn't say cares, I said understands.

Does anything, really?

Guilty. In my time on EcchiDreams, I've found the community, and most of the people who comprise it, are pretty swell, I have no evidence to support @KittyB00not continuing that trend. As an aside, random.org is also pretty swell. Next poster knows the quote, Look, it's been swell but the swelling's gone down."

Not guilty. I have broken up with some and regretted it, but never gotten back together. Next poster has a hard time picking good gifts for their loved ones, romantic, filial or otherwise.

Guilty. Way too often. But NOT TODAY, SATAN! Next poster thinks the 80's teen rom-com is about as good as film making is likely to get.

Not guilty. Too dangerous. Bonus points because venom can get in the air. Not usually immediately fatal as an aerosol, but it can cause cumulative anaphylaxis. I dodged all my youthful attempts to end up a cautionary tale on TV, no point in doing it now. Next poster has kept a rodent as a pet.

Not guilty - I love cats (and fountain pens) - but I am not a Cat Person (not even in the Natasha Kinski film sense). I had my cat, he lived to be 20 and was a tough old bastard and I loved him, but it's dogs now. Next poster has no idea what the hell that film reference is.
