Because gods forbid I should feel left out, or lonely, or upset. Gods forbid /I/ should have feelings. It’s completely okay for other people to guilt /me/ for asking to be replied to, or these days even thinking about asking to be replied to. It’s completely okay for people like you to make me feel bad for being lonely.
It’s completely okay for you to make me feel bad for wishing anywhere it could possibly be seen that the people who complain about wanting more threads and that no one ever plays with them would just remember that they have a thread with me, and reply to it.
It’s completely okay for you to make me feel bad, because after all, roleplay is a /solitary/ pastime. It doesn’t involve anyone but yourself. It’s just you, and the muse, and the screen, and the story, so it’s completely okay to just walk away from it, because nobody else could possibly be hurt; it’s a solitary escape from the world.
