PhilThe only complaint I have is that you sent everyone to bed at the end. We can work around this, as Mxy did. But, wouldn't it have been more considerate to keep it open at the end, therebye, allowing others to come after you and post their own 'campfire story'? Just a thought.



Yeah, probably. I wasn't sure exactly how to handle the timeframe in which all the little elements of that dialogue took place. So I tried to make it a bit more self-contained. I was thinking that if it did overlap temporally with someone else's plans, they could indicate <Before> or <Meanwhile> or <Dammit wait for me!> Next time I'll try to make it more open-ended. Glad you liked the rest of it though.

I'm still trying to learn how to allow my own ideas to unfold without impeding the flow of the story. I managed to smuggle in a good bit of characterization (I thought), behind-the-story exposition, and a little humor without bending the narrative to my own parameters. Next time I'll try as hard to keep from breaking the action on the boards as in the story.
