How do you handle falling in love on the table when you might be falling in love off of it?
I've been playing D&D with Sam for years, and we've been friends for even longer. I've done a great job of not letting my crush interfere with that, until his paladin kisses my bard, and now I can't get any of it out of my head. Sam's all fire and divine rigorousness, and he looks at me like he wants to devour me. The problem is, I only seem to be able to say what I'm really feeling in character. Both my character and I are keeping secrets now, and the only question is what's going to happen when the truth comes out?
When Mirabel and Sam's D&D role-playing crosses the line between friends and lovers, they start to toy with the line as well. It's easier to pretend to be a dashing bard and steadfast paladin than two people falling in love, but is their connection only as strong as their characters'?
