[quote=@The Harbinger of Ferocity]...In many ways, the real confirmation that they have become their own "persons" is when the dream can be made real. By this I mean, to think about them is not to [i]make[/i] them do anything, just what they would actually [i]do[/i]. Second nature put to narrative really...[/quote] YES to this! The best RP is totally organic and has a nature of its own. Rather than me and my RPP constructing something in order to force it to happen, I enjoy *not knowing* what they're going to do or say or feel from one moment to the next because *that is the closest to reality* that we'll get. And that's what I strive for in writing and RPing.
