This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yeah, when I play an RPG and I create a character, I'm creating a whole character, not just a self-insert one. That character has a name, a backstory, a way of thinking, skills, experiences. When that character decides to join the Stormcloacks, it's not because that's what I would do. It's what the character would do.

Some of those characters are women. Some are nonhuman. It's a character, it's not me.
