Not sure for them. ..Oshi&#8211; this thing&#8217;s still on.<br \/>\n*clears throat*<br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nAlright. Let&#8217;s begin.<br \/>\n==============================================<br \/>\n<strong><em>So many mods, not enough time<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\n==============================================<br \/>\nThe first game is Minecraft. Got invited to join a new server from Ayana, my friend but also one of Kovo&#8217;s and Nova&#8217;s friends. This is a Modded Minecraft server. And the modpack is a &#8216;kitchen sink&#8217; style pack. It&#8217;s called &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.curseforge.com\/minecraft\/modpacks\/enigmatica2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Enigmatica<\/a>&#8216;. There&#8217;s a handful of mods that I&#8217;m used to (that direwolf20 has played). It&#8217;s designed to help people get into mods. At least that&#8217;s the idea. However, someone like Kovo doesn&#8217;t seem to understand this. It&#8217;s<br \/>\nall &#8216;German&#8217; to him. Huh. Sounds like my mother when I (and others) try to teach her tech stuff.<br \/>\nMeanwhile, I&#8217;m having a god damn fucking nostalgia trip with all the mods I remember using in the past. &#8220;OMG it has X! ..<strong>We can make a Y!!!<\/strong> :D&#8221; and so on. Yet process has been ridiculously slow. I&#8217;m half expecting us to dive head first into this modpack, but Kovo and Nova are doing their own things. Kovo&#8217;s doing vanilla stuff, and Nova&#8217;s&#8230; making huge underground caverns with a fuckton of torches. None of them seem truly interested in this modpack as I am.<br \/>\nThen there&#8217;s Cave. He&#8217;s semi-nostalgic yet more of an explorer type.<br \/>\nAnd finally, myself (again). I&#8217;m too busy simping over these mods that.. I hilariously don&#8217;t even know where to start. Without direwolf&#8217;s videos, I feel so lost. I&#8217;ve been wanting to get into Tinkerer&#8217;s Construct but.. again, dunno where to start. Not to mention the other problem.. personally, is we&#8217;re not really in the best spot to be getting into mods. Especially with everyone doing their own thing, there&#8217;s going to be times toes are going to be stepped on.<br \/>\n&#8211;<br \/>\nBut now finally have some direction (a day after I first joined), but it seems it&#8217;s directed by Ayana. &#8220;We don&#8217;t need to use EnderIO when we have AE2&#8221; she says. Yet the only one that actually is trying to get us into this.. is Cave. Ayana can&#8217;t really play as she&#8217;s running the server, and that causes big lag spikes.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a big mess of confusion. Kovo&#8217;s confused on what to do (again his mind&#8217;s too focused on vanilla), and Nova&#8217;s still making that large cavern that I honestly don&#8217;t understand why it&#8217;s even being made (and all it&#8217;s doing is causing lag). At this rate, there would really be no point of having the server up if everyone isn&#8217;t on board with what we need to be focused on.<br \/>\n==============================================<br \/>\n<em><strong>&#8220;Look at Benie staring.. menacingly.&#8221;<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n==============================================<br \/>\nDuring one of these instances (we&#8217;re all in a call), a familiar person to the server (TJ) joins us. This is someone who refuses to be known as cute. And it&#8217;s even more cute<br \/>\nwhen &#8216;he&#8217; denies it (reason for those quotations a bit later). Kovo and a few others also decide to playfully annoy him to admit &#8216;he&#8217; is cute.<br \/>\nGot to a point where TJ begins DMing me, RPing with snuggling and stuff. I&#8217;m not telling anyone what&#8217;s going on &#8216;behind the scenes&#8217; as it.. well, totally didn&#8217;t turn into <em>E<\/em>RP. And well yeah, was definitely interesting. And one time when we were.. really &#8216;having fun&#8217;, I remember Cave saying in the call &#8220;Look at Benie staring at us.. menacingly&#8221;.<br \/>\nRemind you I was &#8216;having fun&#8217; elsewhere.. *cough* and wouldn&#8217;t always move when more fun was happening.<br \/>\n&#8230;I tried my best not to say (later on when TJ logged off for the night (aka fell asleep) after feeling quite satisfied in my virtual arms) &#8220;well I just [RETRACTED] a femboy, and I enjoyed it!&#8221; in the call. Because oh lord the level of embarrassment I would be<br \/>\nfeeling (especially Kovo&#8217;s reactions).<br \/>\nFriends with benefits &gt; Looking for true love. Less of a headache, having the same<br \/>\nfun, and less of having to say no. &#8230;But, just remember to, ask for age before? That&#8217;s important too. Fortunately for me, &#8216;he&#8217; is above that age. So, phew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hmm. Let&#8217;s see -GAMES-, check. PC, check. &#8216;Other&#8217;.. huh.
