merc! it has truly been such a delight and a privilege to get to know you and write with you — you are so funny and warm and clever and a joy to interact with on both an ic and ooc level.

i feel like playing an oc is doing things on hard mode and yet you make it look so easy; matt has such a clearly defined voice and character — he's as much a real person to me as anyone else i know. all that is made possible by just how thoughtful and descriptive your writing is; you have a really special knack for choosing which of your character's thoughts to include in a tag that flesh out their universe as well as the relationship of the two characters that are immediately interacting.

you're also such a generous thread partner — i don't think chickengate could have happened with just anybody, let alone the weird bouncing around of emotions that astarion and matt do with each other, and it's such a pleasure to get to play with you and to read your writing. i can't wait to do more with you and dig more into matt's Whole Deal — each layer of the onion has been its own rich reward!

also on a totally separate note i am in awe and envy of your ability to write a sex scene, a task which typically makes me go fully insane and run into the woods.

tl;dr i think you're so neat, and i'm so glad to know you!
