I know this is so stupid. But even though I've never met them and never even spoken to them other than through an online forum, I feel like I know these people.
And every time one of them drops out of the active werewolfing circle or the forum or whatever, it feels like they died because the only link I have with them is severed.
Memories of shugyosha come to mind.
He modded my first game, Ladies Only #2 if I'm not wrong. And I played a few games with him, or read games he was in - nothing epic, but it was enough to form a really strong impression. When I'd realised he'd dropped off the face of the earth (sort of - totally out of the bgg forum, anyway) I was devastated.
Bluebehir. He played in Power Village, which is how I got to know him, but he rarely (never) plays anymore, due to work issues and other such stuff. But he still drops by the forum now and then, which makes it feel not so bad, more like a friend moved overseas but still (kinda) in contact.
Snaak. When he dropped out due to depression, it was awful. But thankfully he's back with a vengence, as funny and friendly as ever.
And now Redhawke. REDHAWKE. This is the guy who plays crazy, talks crazy but deep down has a really philosophical and (i suspect) theological mindset. Who's really mysterious and refuses to take part in the WW christmas card exchange, but finally (after TONS of badgering) posted a picture on the picture thread. Who geekmailed me to encourage me to quit swearing on the forums (not easy, especially when you screw up big time!) who makes all of us laugh and curse and then laugh again...
We're praying for you. Hang in there, Red.
