I was watching a recording of an Asagao Academy livestream by the Youtuber ProJared (which you can watch here:
www.twitch.tv/projared/v/63845…) ... and the ending of it surprised me.
There was one part where it was just a small scene with Jirard giving PBG a pie... and then ProJared started crying. That surprised me and made me tear up, too. I mean, the game does contain fictional portrayals of himself and his fellow Youtubers in the Normal Boots group...then he explained that he didn't get to hang out with his friends that often.
He missed his friends so much. It was so sweet and sad to see.
Then it got me thinking about what I've been doing with my life lately. Yes, I've been writing more fanfiction lately and getting my creative juices flowing again, but I haven't really hung out with people besides my husband at home, my little sister, and my local brony group. Some of my best friends... I haven't seen in months. Man, I'm a horrible friend!
I seriously need to remedy this.
Basically... Asagao Academy is an amazing game, and the fanbase somehow is helping me open up my heart again. It's making it much harder to resist joining tumblr, after all. XD
