The I AM thread. (The 4-day rule applies!)

[BosBaBe]

I am...

...Pleasantly surprised, I took a wrong turn and met some amazing people from my spawn town! It's made me realize how much I miss the company of others, and my spawn town. It's made me think about what I really want with my life.
...Desperate to change our lives, for me, for her.
...Ecstatic that she said yes, now we're just spending time together, without a care in the world.
...Sleeping.
...Waiting to die. I'm so sorry...
...Digging up stone, preparing for my big plans!
...Waiting and working.
...I've arrived somewhere, not that I can see where I am. It's quiet here, always so damn quiet.
...Here now, where I want to be. Now it's time to work for a living, perhaps I can find my purpose?
...Sleeping.
...Working, making money so we can finally leave. I hope no one has taken my forest for themselves while I've been away...
...Sleeping, being quiet, I don't have much to say.
...Sitting quietly, not sure what to work on.

[AshBee]

I am...

... Preparing. It's almost finally time to travel somewhere new. This is farther than I've ever been from home, but at least I have him with me.
... Sailing. We are finally on the water again. Too bad half the crew won't wake, at least he has.
... Traveling. On my way home. This road didn't seem so long on the way there, must be all of those resources.
... Crowded. Town just quadrupled in size overnight. At least they are respectful. I wish she'd wake to help.
... Waiting. I told her I'd follow her orders, and I did. Now we wait and see.
... Pleasing. Is it possible to be a good leader and please everyone? I don't think so, someone is always in disagreement. I'm doing my best.
... Preparing. They are leaving soon for a long resource run, I'll do my best to make sure they go prepared.
... Helping. There aren't many of us, but if we all work together we'll meet our goals.
... Impatient. We were supposed to have left by now, what is taking so long? Something keeps coming up.
... Disappointed. He promised he'd wake more, that was days ago. Another promise broken. Maybe I should join him?
... Betrothed. He finally asked. I said yes! I can't wait to spend forever with him. I really am lucky.
... Selfish. I've finally followed his example and moved on. For the first time in years I'm taking care of me.
... Giggling. Where did he come from? He makes me so happy. Too bad it won't last.
... Working. I'm a member of the family, now I pitch in and do my fair share.
... Defending. I really love him, the animals do too. So much so that they insist he's the most enjoyable meal. I'll protect him!

[TuxedoKitty]

I am...

... Quietly working. I miss home and the lack of response is worrying me. Though I'm looking forward to traveling with him and getting silk.
... Happy for once, I'm glad their lives and town had gone to shit though I wish I could have been the one to do it. Maybe I still can?
... Slowly healing. The scars are still there and I don't know if they can be healed fully. The new girl's seem to taken a liking to me but can I trust her to not do to me what the last girl did?
... Worn out, but happy. She can be so insatiable sometimes and I wouldn't have her any other way.
... Alone. They gave me her ship and I don't know what to do with it. I guess I'll spend my life working on it, maybe it'll keep my mind off my pain.
... Glad to be out of the forest after 8 years and excited to see what the world has to offer. I hope I don't get lost!
... Slightly less bored for once. I still want see something other than this town though.
... Worried. He said she probably won't be asleep for long but still...
... Even more worried. I hope he wakes up soon, I'm starting to forget what his voice sounds like.
... Heading to the forest, I hope he's awake and if so I hope he's not mad we left him behind.
... Getting on with my life. I don't need anyone but myself.
... Heading home after a long duration of farming for gas.
... Angry. Everyone I've ever loved is dead. How could she do this to me? She said we stay together for him...
... Scavenging with the boyfriend. How I love him.

[Snowdrop]

I am... worried about him not feeling well...

I am... disappointed. She's fallen asleep and he's disappeared. Plans seem to keep falling apart.

I am... wishing they'd stop worrying about me and just let me work in peace...

I am... making a pig's ear of this...heh. Pun intended.

I am... happy, happy, happy! Another newspawn!

I am... eager to get back home.

I am... wishing he hadn't fallen asleep holding onto that hay...got to start all over again as the animals get more hungry

I am... sleepworking while I decide what to do.

[*Wiro]

I am...fresh meat!

[Tangential]

Welcome back, Wiro?

I am ...

- thankful to be back with those who matter most. After that wild goose chase, it puts things into perspective that sometimes people aren't who they seem.

- worried, but anxious to visit the nest again. Maybe some pies, flowers, and hugs will make her feel better.

- completely unlocked and vulnerable - how is this possible? This kind of happiness is terrifyingly criminal that I can't even think straight in this topsy turvy world she has me in.

[Doug R.]

...wondering if this is the end? Have I lost my motivation? Do I just not care anymore? If so, is there a reason to live? I've lost or am losing nearly everyone I care about. One by one, the anchors holding me to this world are being raised.

...sleep working in this noisy town.

...content, I guess. She's happy, or seems to be, and that's all that matters.

...still dead inside, but too afraid of the afterlife to actually die. If this group of people can't lift my spirit, then there's no hope for me. At least she loves me for what I am; I have that consolation.

[NancyLee]

I am seriously considering some culling and...

...ecstatic; utterly lost in his embrace, mesmerized. Not being the only one who's scared is, somehow, reassuring. And receiving the best possible news from the outside world!
...a dead starfish.
...selling my soul, sort of. Closing doors, cutting ropes and wondering how long it'll take till my palms start itching again, figuratively.
...fearing I'm losing my mind, scared by those holes in my memory that I'm trying hard to conceal, striving to make him smile for the both of us.
...granting wishes while I work hard to get my ass out of here and pretend I'm not noticing his interest. Or his.
...about to puke rainbows and whatnot with all the stuff going on. Give me my keys so I can leave, please!

[Alladinsane]

I am...

Getting worried of her sleeping... it may be time for me to sleep too.
Getting worried of her sleeping II... it may be time for me to sleep too II.
Preparing to die. 3 good ones and I'm done. Now its time to make good out of this.
Coming home after 30years. She died, they all died. I killed alot of bears and wolves on the way.
Madly in love with the woman everyone thinks is special.
I cramped my own style... preparing to die.
Getting worried of her sleeping III... it may be time for me to sleep too III.
Tired here. Why say 15words when 3 will convery the message. Getting ready to die.
I never became what I meant to be. Darn wolves.
I am realizing that I no longer fit. Its a lonely crowd.
Why should I stay?
Finally figuring her out. I still think this will lead to disaster somehow.

[kicking jay]

I am...
...not able to get off this damn island. I'll give them wood until I starve to death. I've been alive long enough.
...traveling again and missing all the bodies I left behind. Metals are hard to find, but I need them. Looks like I'll have to earn my way to steel, instead of trading for it. My feet are hard and calloused. I'm okay, though.
...Barely awake.
...done fitting my house but bored outta my gorram mind. The hell's everybody sleeping for? Well, lets me knock about the myriad buildings and nab stuff's just collecting dust. Wow, look at all these old tools.
...sewing and wondering why this town which was once so alive is dying of sleep.
...taking charge. People may die, but this village I once couldn't wait to leave will not. Maybe, I'll even run the place.
...making friends and new clothing. I like big towns, and I like knitting. The journey was worth it.
...tired and unsure of what to do. I feel bad, sleeping so much, but communicating is so hard...
...angry but not sure what I should do. I don't really like this town. How do I find pirates?
...quiet and busy. I'm starting to draw people. I talked a bit today. That's good.

[NostalgicMelody7]

I am...
...Climbing trees! Trying to keep her mind off of things.
...Still in shock. How did we go from travel partners to lovers so quickly?
...Trying to fulfill my duty. I am still getting the hang of it.
...Working my days away, saving up money. But for what? Who cares!
...Making potions to my heart's content. She's so kind to me!
...Finally building my shop! This is going to be wonderful... If only the atmosphere around town wasn't so dreary...
...Glad that she doesn't think I'm a monster anymore. What a brat.
...Sketching out a design. How does his monocle work, I wonder?
...Absorbed in the fabric. What mystifying colors... I'm glad that she lets me help.

[ObsessedWithCats]

I am...

... strangely missing being treated like a tree for climbing, hoping to go back soon.
... going to actually start moving towards home tomorrow!
... greeting a newspawn. Waiting for the town leader to wake up - this isn't my job, not this often.
... wondering if she thinks we're stupid, or if she's stupid. Even -I- can tell that's wrong now she's explaining fully what she wants to do.

[Snickie]

....too sleepy for my own good.
....too sleepy to leave like I was supposed to years ago.
....too sleepy to entertain people.
....too sleepy to realize she's gone.
....too sleepy to realize the door's unlocked.
....too sleepy to keep her from sleeping.
....too sleepy to think about anything but how soft this pillow is.

I need to cut at least two of these. Possibly three.

[mikki]

I haven't posted anything in a while so I figured I might as well post something quickly before I disappear once again. I'm sure some will be easier then others to figure out since well.. I've not been really playing. Anyways!

I am:

*tired. So tired of trying to get things up and going just to watch everyone else continue to sleep.

*tired. Working in my sleep. I might as well since there isn't anything else going on in town. Soon I will hand over the keys and let everyone else deal with running this town.

*He sleeps, I sleep. I know I promised him that I wouldn't die on him but honestly? I'm ready to die.

*I just need to wait a little longer for company to arrive and then I can slowly go back to sleep but this time I won't have the desire to wake back up.

*Going down the road sooo slowly. Might take me a year to make it to my destination but once I do, I plan on giving him everything before I let myself go. I can't continue to live without this other person, promises be damned. Its not like he kept his. He's not even once tried to contact me to make sure I'm alright. He doesn't care and he's not there for me like he promised he would be so I'm no longer going to keep my promises to him. I'm ready to die.. aren't I?

*Sleepy. I need to wake up.

*Not really wanting to wake up. Everyone else is sleeping so why not?

*I should have stayed with him. Why in the hell did I leave?

*So insecure. I'm trying to make it seem as though this stuff doesn't bother me, but it does.

*OMG We found land! I swear its been -ages-

*Sleeping my life away.. why do I care.

*Still trying to make those sails for my raker.

*helping to build machines while my man sleeps his life away.

*Working while I wait for him to wake up. Its been a long time already. I miss him.

*Sleeping.

[Optimus Christ]

Let's see.

- Dunno why she sticks around, I am an asshole after all.

-Still running this shin dig, but got extra hands for now. Which I appreciate.

-gathering wood, expecting her to never wake up

-Looking out for myself now. No more Trying to get the town running. Only myself.

-Almost done with this wood, then we go on vacation!

-Doing stuff, Not sure exactly what to do, so many projects to do.

-Ignoring her for the final time. She wants to sleep, so can I.

-Worried about my Wife while I am gathering things that may be useful

-Running the gold center of the universe apparently. May have to lay the smack down on these gold diggers. Wanting to buy food for gold is really getting tiring, especially when we can just mine it right there!

-Chopping wood, getting stronger and more aggressive every day. Not being able to speak has that effect.
