hell naw

I get nervous just thinking about that. I don't even want to go to game cons (i hate being in huge crowds), so you're unlikely to ever find me NEAR a furry con. I mean, in game cons i'd at least be on home territory since i'm an avid gamer, but i'm really not invested enough in the furry fandom to even consider going to a con. :U

Really though, i think that whole "constantly roleplay as your character whenever possible" deal is weird as hell, and that's coming from me. I mean, i'm not going to tell them to stop if they really enjoy it, but to me it's like, why wouldn't you be yourself? Fictional characters can be nice and all, but i've found real people to ultimately be much more interesting; they don't just have one or two gimmicks (or dicks) that define them, each and every one of them has a life and personality as complex as your own. Fictional characters can be considered relatively deep if they have two distinct sides to them, but real people have oh so many more. Using myself as an example, i can be goofy and fun-loving, quiet and introspective, hellishly determined, outspoken and angry, paralyzed by anxiety, and hell, even sad and vulnerable. That's only a partial list, and every single person out there has a list like that, so i'm not special by any means. Our brains really want to simplify other people, and that's probably a good thing; they're plenty occupied just trying to handle one life. :v

And hey, that turned out to be a pretty big chunk of text. That's what i get for staying up late in order to hydrate properly. Hail hydrate i guess. :U

Edit: Also disclaimer, i totally understand that roleplaying can be a lot of fun (after all, i do tabletop), i just don't see why people would flat out replace themselves. I mean sure, we all have quirks that we'd rather be without, but i don't think that any of the characters i've made would be able to take my place in this world, even disregarding physical limitations.

I tried again and took some of your advice with shading and lighting. Does this look better?
