Why are you doing this to me? How am I supposed to choose? Many many board games come in and out of favour. Steamworks. Scythe. Gloomhaven. Dnd? Or roleplaying in general? Or if that's too broad something else with infinite replay value like bridge?
Earliest memory
I'm not sure. I think, almost my only memory of the house I was born in was lying in bed one night, and noticing the shapes of things in my room looked like hungry wolves. It felt like a scary thing, but also wasn't VERY scary like I knew it was nervous-making but wasn't actually dangerous. Can't remember much more about it though, the edges of the memory have worn away.
If you could have one wish fulfilled, what would it be?
Again, I have no idea. There's no one big thing missing in my life. I guess another romantic partner I get on as well with as I do with Liv would be a big upgrade? But I wouldn't feel my life was shortchanged without it.
Achieving something... notable in my life? Is that the sort of thing you can wish for, when you want to *achieve* it?
Go back in time and have teenage-me have the confidence to try things and not just watch life unfold? But then I think I'd be an entirely different person.
Or if it doesn't have to be me personally there's a lot of "fix the world" wishes, depending which one looks best.
Have you ever lost something that is important to you? Were you able to find it?
Nothing that felt truly heart-wrenching. My engagement ring seems to be lost somewhere, very hopefully in the house somewhere. But we explicitly said, if we lose them one day, we can buy a new one we love in a similar way and not feel tie the emotions to the first one alone.
I often get really angsty when I lose anything just because i feel out of control, like when I mistakenly put a book down somewhere and forgot it. But most were not vital.
I've lost computer files and similar. But I've generally adjusted fine to not having them. Not having the original flash source for my old winnie-the-pooh game has been a little sad but not really a big deal in the end.
Would you rather go scuba diving or rock climbing? Why?
Floating sounds more blissful. But sound fun and beautiful. And are things I know friends get a lot from. But I admit, I COULD arrange to do either! But I just kind of shy away worried about the faff of actually doing it.
