Episode 51: Bleed

Dallas is back, and after talking about her allyship and learning experiences on the topic. Then we gush about the Vampire LARP we spoke of last time, discussing my fourth and her second session.



At the end we speak about a topic that needs to be talked about more. After very emotionally intense roleplay sessions, especially when it’s about LARPs, your character’s emotions could bleed over to to you and cause psychologicaleffects that you need to process, and for that to happen, you need the right support network and tools on how to deal with it. Enjoy!

Today’s sonnet is dedicated to Frida’s character Bella, who is no longer with us. We will miss you Bella, Emmy and me both. Thankfully, Frida is till around <3







Bella,



If you would count the stars that light the sky



A crucial thing for those bereft of sun



Cry all you want, but never dare deny



The counted stars now be reduced by one







You gave me hope when hope was but a dream



Undid my chains and showed another path



Despite the dark, I suddenly could gleam



A future brighter than my sire’s wrath







You found me just as I was ’bout to fall



I was so weak until you made me strong



But just as I had learned to stand up tall



I heard a crash and suddenly you’re gone







No longer do I fear the deepest pain



I swear to you, you won’t have died in vain
