I LOVE MY GAME.

secondcityrpg and everyone in it, I love you all for being such amazing sports and letting me do terrible things to your characters.

This kidnapping plot is the best thing ever. And there's still Two Harrys and a Deadpool to go.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to deal with Lara being terrifying again.
