I am soooooooooo happy I lured you over here; I have gotten to have a front-row seat to your thoughtful character decisions for over a decade!!! and I'm really excited that a bunch of other people now get to enjoy them too. I love how different this Lance is from all your other ones -- you make such intentional choices about why he is the way he is and have developed him so thoroughly and I'm so proud of the progress he's making!! I'm just so glad you're here.

Jess! The degree to which your Lancelot stuns me on a daily basis is super high! You have clearly put so much thought into his character and I adore seeing everything he's gotten up to here, and how true to him you're staying!

[perilous]

you are such a deeply kind and lovely person, it has been wonderful getting to know you since you thankfully came and joined us. i am in awe of how much thought you put into lancelot and his psyche and his choices; it is so much fun to watch him grow and change.

[rhombal]

It's always impressive whenever you go through exactly what Lancelot is thinking and what your reasoning is for character decisions/development! You have such a deep understanding of your character. I'm very happy you've joined us!!

jess!!! while i have in my life had more arthuriana thoughts than i have ever known what to do with, you still have made me contemplate the depths of the tragedy that is lancelot's existence in a way i never expected. i should be holding magnus's earrings while he tries to fight lancelot and instead i'm like, damn, actually, lancelot has some rights? maybe at least two or three?

You do such an amazing job handling a character who is sort of divisive among the puppets, which I think is an underrated RP skill!

[futaille]

You do a remarkable job, friend spirit! And I am fully delighted to have someone else who actually cares about attending to the pinball table, so thank you for providing one.

Jess, I am going to give you the highest praise I can think of - you made me give a shit about Lancelot. Thanks to reading Chrétien de Troyes for my Middle English class, I've always rolled my eyes so hard at him but now? I WANT HIM TO BE HAPPY AND LIVE HIS BEST LIFE.

jess! [insert regional higher ed fist-bump here]

i admit that i've been a lancelot agnostic since my first lancelot encounter (half magic by edward eager) but now i love him. it's so, so fun to play with you. your character choices are so thoughtful and SO compelling, and i really love how each of my guys has SUCH a different relationship with your guy. (i also, fwiw, love his relationships with people outside of my guys - it's such a joy to read his different little fumbling interactions across the mansion ♥)

[empressliu]

jess!! i have such admiration for how well you write lancelot as both deeply awkward and deeply charming - it's a real skill imo to balance those aspects without them contradicting each other and you do it so effortlessly

[gileonnen]

Your Lancelot is absolutely phenomenal--your character concept for him is so beautifully informed by your familiarity with the source material and your clear experience with unpicking his psyche several times over, and yet I love seeing how he keeps surprising you. His characterization develops and adapts as a result of his interactions, and that means his choices are always both interesting and surprising but also deeply grounded in the choices he's made before. You also have a beautiful way of writing physicality, whether it's in a fight or an intimate scene; I always feel Lancelot's weight and solidity, and that just makes his emotional presence all the more strongly felt.

I'm glad you're here. It's been lovely to meet you. <333

I love your Lancelot! There's something about him that's just so endearing. I remember when he first turned up, and a lot of puppets immediately thought he was a jerk, but over time many got to know him and appreciate him. That's a journey I as a typist have been able to take along with the puppets—learning more about Lancelot, understanding why he comes across the way he does, and eventually seeing his big tender heart. It's been delightful.
