Can I come?! Please?!
At this moment, I looked like the cat wearing boots voiced by the person who played the fencer guy wearing a black mask as I was melting hearts left and right. But yeah, as sad as it may sound, I actually enjoyed and even if D&D wasn't in the picture, I spent most of my childhood life playing alone, and never did I think I was sad or should deserve pity.
Being alone and lonely had differences and I was perfectly fine and happy being alone at that time.
Even now, even with Kaley and the few others in the mix in my life, I still treasure the few minutes or hours I could just be with myself—and it's got nothing to do with them, but sometimes, the peace and quiet were like an old friend that was always there for me.
Though Mr. Dewey and I shared a moment right then and there as he offered to play:
"You'll DM?"
"Anything for you, Sonny."
"Don't call me Sonny."
"Ah— What do you want me to call you?"
