Considering Tyll'a is a culinarian, I'm sure he's chopped onions before.

Seriously, though, I've come close to crying when one of my characters in WoW RP got killed off.  Nothing close to that yet in FFXIV, though.

I don't think I've ever cried during RP. Even during a sad scene, I usually just feel emotionally drained but never weepy or anything.

RE: Chopping onions during RP - McBeefâ„¢ - 11-04-2015

The issue with me has been sometimes that I RP a sad scene. Something tragic or final, the end of something beautiful. I get so sad, that OOCly I don't want it to end.

I often have to resist the urge to go back and figure out a way to make it work (especially IC relationships), because it's me who's missing it, not my character.

It's really hard sometimes to resist messaging the other person afterwards and being like "So how can we make this work T_T"

I've definitely gotten teary in RP before, both for the tragic and the sweet.
Especially when linked mood music. Gets me every time.

For some reason, I keep reading this as "chomping onions". Makes me picture someone sat a a computer with an onion in one hand as they take a huge bite out of it, whilst typing with the other hand XD

I have cried during RP though, usually over silly little things. Riku is a bit of a crybaby sometimes, and so am I XD (I'll admit to having cried over being ICly picked on XD).

Oooooh yes. Very much so. Kiht'a has recently gone through a lot of relationship issues, and it was a week from hell for him. Hes growing up and learning things he didn't know about the world. The darker side of things. Not everything is cheery and happy and things sometimes cannot last or go the way you want them. That mistakes must be made in order to learn.

His relationship RP with his partner was especially powerful, and I teared up so much I needed a tissue. Kiht is just someone who only wants to love people and make friends. But it has been the exact opposite for him. He wants someone to just make all the bad things go away, but he knows no one could.

In the end of his most recent relationship, it ended that his mate felt betrayed and he never intended to make him feel that way. His mate ended up not accepting his apologies and disowned Kiht'a as a friend. It was earth shattering for Kiht'a.

The last... two weeks of RP have left me with an over abundance of freshly chopped onions on more than one occasion. 

Relationship issues, horrible luck for Kasumi all around, unresolved dramas and new ones springing up. I feel so horrible for her, but at the same time-- it's all just so interesting to see it take a life of its own. 

I don't mind the onions. The characters and story are proving worth it.

Yes. Not on FFXIV yet, but I have in previous roleplays. It was emotionally draining on top of it, but both myself and my partner were tearing up and writing. I'm fairly sure when we both hear the song we associated with it, we get those feelings all over again. I sure as hell do, and we're close enough in similarities we call each other our clone, so there is that.

I know it'll eventually happen in XIV, but it hasn't yet.

RE: Chopping onions during RP - Mia Moui - 11-09-2015

I will cry at almost any provocation.  I watched "Inside Out" last night and I was in tears within seconds of the movie starting.  I had to turn it off several times.  I will always try to avoid tearjerking movies in theaters but I'm sometimes blindsided by sad scenes in action films.

So given that I'll cry over just about anything, I've cried during RP.

RE: Chopping onions during RP - Edgar - 11-09-2015

It's happened to me, before. Sometimes the moment is just to sweet or too sad to not burst into tears. 

I'm human, I have feelings. Something touches me, I cry. ;_;

Sad

In all seriousness, this didn't make me cry. But it still felt gut-wrenching.

RE: Chopping onions during RP - Edda - 11-15-2015

I recant my previous answer. It finally happened. Certainly didn't see that shit coming... Damn me and my... easily overflowed tear ducts!

It'll never happen again.

.....Carrying a dying mother's child away from her as thy kick and scream for their mother did that for me. .....Especially wheni killed the mother.

Got misty eyed just last night. As Crofte looks the man she loves square in the eyes and admits she was spying on him for months.
