Yes, another one of these threads. This thought occurred to me at work the other day--what if you were forced to share a flat or apartment with your character? Would you get along? Would one of you never pay rent on time? Who would be the messier one? Maybe you'd not get along at all, and just fight. Or, maybe, you'd make a terrible mistake and fall for one another!
Some people are very similar to their characters, while for other people, it's night and day. I'm really interested to see how people think they would personally get along with their characters. For example, I don't think Cade's player would survive being Cade's roommate. And maybe if Xelhes had an apartment with HIS player, Xel (the character) would stop being so lonely and awkward!
I'm afraid Laszlo and I would be pretty boring roommates. We'd probably spend most of our time locked away in our respective rooms, doing whatever it is we do. Occasionally we'd meet in the kitchen and hang out, discuss bill paying and how to best organize it. Neither of us would ever want to wash the dishes, so that would stack up. He would probably be more responsible about taking the trash out than me. I doubt we'd hang out much or be very close friends, but once in a while we'd knock back a few and talk about our lives and bond.
Occasionally we'd both have "friends" over. Guy friends for me, girl and guy friends for him. Any friend I brought home would probably be pretty drawn to Laszlo, which would be frustrating for me. I think we might get drunk and POSSIBLY wake up next to each other one time, then both agree this was a terrible mistake and never ever speak of it again.
