I bet! Is everyone taking turns with the baby?

@Blademusica76Thank you! And I'm glad it felt consistent with what was advertised.

Do you have any suggestions that you think would improve the RP? Things you would have wanted to see more of, or done differently?

"You are not talking to an empty room. This place shaped itself for you, Jay."

The Moderator takes the empty seat beside Jay.

"You've spent this whole time worrying about everyone else. Whether they were bored. Whether anyone felt left out. Let me worry about you."

She meets Jay's eyes. "I can only work with what I'm given. So tell me what you need. You're allowed to want things. Don't apologize for it. Whatever it is, we'll do everything we can."

@BaronOBeefDip Very true. I don't regret going to it with my friend, the talk we had about the show was entertaining in itself😂

I also think that the delivery/timing of the joke is also important. Cause there were instances where I thought, in a different context, this might've been funny to me. (But then again, there's only so much you can do with sex jokes and that was... basically all the first two acts were about 😅)



Me, whose spelling has gotten worse over the years:


(I do like reading those posts though, have you read the posts on r/BoneAppleTea stuff? 😙👌)

@Blademusica76 I'm sorry to see you go, thank you for staying as long as you did. If you're willing, I'd love some detailed feedback. It would genuinely help.

Jay's Catharsis

The Moderator caps her pen. Sets it on the clipboard.

"There's nothing to apologize for. You covered more ground than you probably realize." She smiles. "I think there might just be too much to process all at once, that's all. What if you tried it in pieces? Small ones. And it's okay to ask for help with it. Let the people here ask questions. Sometimes it's easier to answer something than to figure out where to start."

With a small nod toward the group, she opens the floor to them.

So I went to a stand up comedy show for the first time in my life and... I feel like I spent my time laughing for the comedians rather than genuinely laughing at their jokes 😭 Which made me think, well one comedy is hard, but also, are there any comedians or comedy media that made you really laugh?

Charlie's Catharsis

@BaronOBeefDip

Briefly, his gaze moves to the other tables before settling back on Charlie.

"A cure is not guaranteed. Neither is a death sentence."

The man in the white gloves tucks the notepad into his breast pocket and straightens his jacket at the hem.

"Call me when you've made your decision."

And with that, he turns and goes.

Floriano's Catharsis

@Blademusica76

There is, finally, a figure. It moves away before it can be hailed, unhurried through the café and gone around a corner.

Should anyone follow quickly enough to catch it, what turns around is not the barista. It is not a man at all.

The face is brass, hammered smooth at the cheeks and forehead, jointed at the jaw in a way that is correct in theory and wrong in execution. The eyes are fixed convex glass, not the soft glass of a doll but ground to a perfect curvature that throws the viewer's own face back at them in miniature. From somewhere inside the chest comes a sound, not breath, not voice. A winding. A click.

Then the gears catch.

It walks back the way it came, measured and even, each step identical to the last, and reaches for the coffee pot. Lifts it with both hands, the arc smooth and ballistic, not one degree wasted, and pours into the nearest cup.

Across the table, a face of the same brass tilts back. The jaw drops to its fixed angle, the coffee disappears into the dark of the open mouth, closes again, and the cup is set back down.

A bow, and on to the next table.

Lift. Pour.

Jaw drops. Coffee disappears. Closes.

And the next.

And the next.

Over and over and over, each repetition identical to the one before it, without fatigue, without variation, without a single wasted motion.

@DaftJive! How you doing?
