You display rule #31. 31) Shots get fired. You take a shot. (455)Every interaction I've had with you has been awesome and enjoyable.
He'll even talk to you after that.

Ugly, though.
I was standing at Inner Gate with @Eugenides and some others shooting the shit. A Sciomancer guard got my attention, so I started dressing him down over making the guild look bad by being out on guard duty with his boots all scuffed up. I didn't expect anything but maybe to make Eug laugh, but instead I was treated to someone possessing the guard and having him start interacting.
I know that the ratio of players to gods/admins means that they can't very well do stuff like this for everyone all the time, but it is a really cool treat when they are able to.
Whoever it was, thanks, you made my day.
One of the best uses of god-kills I've seen lately.
(Outside of the fact that Ish can fly >.>)

So we're super poor right now, and it's one of those "can we afford auto insurance or food this week" kind of things. Naturally auto insurance fell a bit by the wayside. And unfortunately, my mate got pulled over beginning of this month and dinged for not having it. He was required to show up in court this Monday - which happened to be his BIRTHDAY. He was... not pleased, to put it mildly, and a fine is NOT something we can remotely afford at this point.
We went in to court on Monday - for which he had to take off work, losing us more money we don't have - and the judge gets up on his podium and takes time out of his legally-mandated duties to lecture my mate for fifteen minutes about how irresponsible he is. While I'm sitting in the audience seething at this holier-than-thou bastard who has no earthly idea what our situation is and feels like he can talk trash to my incredibly mindful, conscientious, good-hearted boyfriend who rages every day for the ways in which we're NOT financially able to fulfill our responsibilities. And then he fines us $250 and sneers when we say we can't pay that in a month.
So I spent the rest of the day cooking a special birthday dinner and trying to make the day good in spite of the bullshit we went through in the morning.
And then... at about three that afternoon, someone from the courthouse called us. I was expecting some horrible, crippling news, like that supercilious judge had decided to double the fine or whatever.
Nope. Turns out someone took a look at us, listened to my mate try to tell the judge that our rent is more than half of his monthly income and he COULD not afford to pay $250 inside of a month... and went up to the cashier and paid off $75 of our fine. Some random person.
We both cried. It was just... really incredible, when you're feeling like everything is going against you, to find that someone's gone out of their way to help you out, for no reason but the kindness of their heart.
Thank you, random person. Thank you for helping us and making my man's birthday more good than bad.
