Hm. This is easy and hard for me to do, only because for many characters who made me raise my eyebrows and rub my hands in anticipation for the next encounter, those scenes came at their second meeting. The first was brief and almost accidental. But THOSE are not the ones that are being asked for in this thread so...
First impressions as they come to mind:
Verad Bellveil - We had arranged a chance RP but I had no idea what the set up was going to be. The scene that Roen accidentally walked in on with Verad... was HILARIOUS and it totally confounded her. They began to talk and the scene ended on a sad but a touching note. I remember that scene very well and could not help but look forward to the next time they would accidentally meet again. I walked away from that grinning ear to ear.
Natalie Mcbeef - I had no idea who this was. Siha and Roen decided to have lunch at the Quicksand to catch up and this nosy Sultansworn overheard some little thing that was said and walked over to our table, took out a little notepad, and started to grill Roen about it. Trying to protect Siha from suspicion, Roen kind of omitted saying certain things and well... Natalie made her sweat under the collar for it. The rest was history.
Brynhilde Wulf - Roen knew nothing about the woman, but from the first moment she laid her eyes on the Highlander, Bryn just exuded this strength and wisdom. Bryn took her aside and gave her some quiet words of advice and at the time with what Roen was facing, Bryn suddenly seemed like this pillar of unwavering fortitude. Roen still kind of thinks of her that way.
Chachanji Gegenji - This was another prearranged chance encounter, but the scene that followed in the refugee camps was a delight! Especially when Chachanji forced himself to swallow down that awful tincture to reassure someone else. The day ended with Roen watching the little guy play and frolick with Gran in the stream, and she felt quite at peace with herself. It was a warm scene to play.
Edda Eglantine - Nothing extraordinary happened during Roen's first conversation with this noblewoman. And yet for me, their little dance of ingrained courtesies, polite words, and occasional timid prodding into each other's lives, it was a lovely thing to play. Knowing OOC about each other's past, I think we both knew what was not being said ICly but still could see the obvious parallels of the two in their demeanor. Roen still has to get to know this woman better.
