THE TERRIBLE ADVICE MEME

i. Top level with a character and a short problem or scenario for which they'd like advice, input or dis/encouragement. This can be as light ('Garum haunts my dreams,' 'I think my party companion is trying to buy my soul') or serious ('How do I make friends 500 years into tragic immortality?' ) as you like.

ii. Mention in their comment header if they are signed-in or anonymous + content warn as due!

iii. Comment around, troubleshoot woe, give everyone the gift of your character's wisdom this holiday season! Or embrace your inner chaos and make this advice tragically terrible.

Speaking as someone who forgot this place and everybody for so very many years, it sucks. There's really no way to get around it.

I try to enjoy the moment, cause nothing's ever guaranteed as it is, but that doesn't make it easier. I appreciate you prefer to remember even though it would hurt though. For some, they'd choose the ignorance is bliss option. I'd choose to remember too.

Yeah not knowing things only ever brings bad stuff. I like to make informed decisions. Sure, it'd suck to cry every night over you guys for like a year. I rather mourn and enjoy the time we had together later.

I could be some cool old Nani who tells stories about epic battles in Hell.

Yeah, it definitely doesn't protect anybody. You live with the pain, live with the knowing, live with the growth. People change you. Forgetting means you gotta do the growing part all over again.

You'd be the coolest Nani. And how many can even say they've got epic battles in Hell to tell stories about, or don't forget about setting time to right like we did at the last place.
