These scenes in Crash




It's hard to create emotional scenes like this because you don't have the ambiance of music.

Oh yes.

Yes, I have.

From a vague blurriness to my eyes to "crap I need more tissue" onion mode.

It's ten times worse if I actually have sad music going to fit the mood of the scene.

I actually really like tragedy in my role-play though. Not all the time, of course, but it's not something I shy away from.

This has happened to me more times than I can care to admit.

But all in all, they were great scenes and I'd do them again.

No, surprisingly enough. I cry at the drop of a hat too when it comes to... most anything. Perhaps it is because I have not RP'd anything particularly sad, or particularly cathartic with Edda yet... just disturbing and sobering stuff. I walk away from RP feeling drained more than anything else, like butter spread over too much bread. Especially recently, I'll finish a session and feel like I never want to RP again. But I always come back. Like a bad drug.

Granted I have never done any RP that I think anyone would even consider cry worthy, but no. No I have not.

And I also highly doubt I ever would. Even when immersing myself into the world through RP, it's still just a game and my mind registers it as such.

I view movies the same way, as well.

I can think of a few times where my character has to go through a lot or is meeting someone again he lost and I cried. *hugs characters* Love em though makes it interesting.

I don't recall ever bawling my eyes out, but I have teared up before. Being someone who typically only cries/tears up because I'm so frustrated I can't express myself otherwise, if someone manages to trigger sad or happy tears from me during the course of RP it's a sign of their good writing and storytelling as far as I'm concerned.

The only time I've done more than just tear up a bit was a writing a friend did for the both of us as a sort of exit/farewell to the RP community in a game we had lost interest in. We had agreed upon some key points, he went away to write, and the ending just... yeah.

Oh yes, I have. Especially with C'kayah. Man. That guy attracted tears like no one's business.

Setoh? Not so much. I imagine it's only a matter of time, though. I *have* gotten upset with a few RP partners OOCly, but that's an entirely different thing.

I'm sure I have at some point, but I don't remember any specific instances. Certainly not in this game, and probably never in MMO RP. I would like to be involved in RP that makes me that emotional, but so far it hasn't happened (in my memory). I have gotten pretty shaky over intense/nerve-wracking scenes before, though. 

I did cry during the MSQ after the attack on Scions HQ. I was running around frantically looking for Tataru with tears rolling down my face.

Nah, I don't cry during rp. The process of writing and developing plot and characters is cathartic for me, though.

I cry in RP. I cry a lot in RP. Like, embarrassing a lot. I cry at video games and movies and books and

I NEVER CRY, I'M TOUGH AND MEAN AND SCARY.

I've shed a few manly tears of joy from particularly cute and touching scenes before, but I have never cried out of sorrow in response to a scene.

Several scenes I have RP'ed, however, have left me extremely emotionally drained or stressed, but those scenes were absolutely amazing for that very reason, XD.

*highfives*

Is crying the act of tearing up and making sounds or just tearing up? I just tear up so much and then sometimes my eyes get super dry and sensitive with how much they leak..

Usually I just get a little sniffly and my eyes water, but a couple times it's been outright TEARS RAINING DOWN.
