    Ashley will NEVER stop sounding like she's telling her mom about something weird she saw during her day. Like no matter how hard she tries, she just can't stop. Narrative Telephones never fail to make me laugh out loud the entire time.

Her nose was aquiline at best, no amount of toad rubbing could make any wart appear on her fair and mole-less skin, and despite her tea being so sweet the spoon could stand in the liquid, she had strong teeth and no cavities.
      She wasn't jealous, this is a sentiment only stupid people have. But it wasn't always easy to sit next to Gytha "Nanny" Ogg, who managed to lose all of her dentition by the age of 30 (with the exception of an extremely stubborn and efficient last tooth) and a skin to go with, seemingly without much help needed.

      It's so interesting seeing what new critters think.
      During EXU, i had to keep telling myself "don't compare the GM's", and "give the new players a chance", and sometimes "just keep going and try having fun".
      It worked, of course, it just took a lot of work. My brain naturally likes to compare and create competition.

    I just showed my boyfriend the original story by Robbie and then Aimee's story directly thereafter. This is how he described his experience:
    In Robbie's story the group was driving down an empty highway in a cabriolet. There was nothing and noone obstructing their path, just the soft summer breeze blowing though their hair and they had the time of their lives.
    In Aimee's story, they were driving in a wreck of a car, directly towards a trail of oil but they didn't stop. Then they hit the trail of oil and spun 'round and 'round in the most glorious way, so glorious in fact that they even started spinning themselves inside the already spinning wreck. :D
    I had to laugh really hard at this so I just wanted to share ;)
