Yooo, you are the person to go to when it comes to TTRPGs for sure. You are immersed! I recently had a convo with a friend about either a solo, or a micro-Carin sess. I'm pretty new to the whole thing (only gamed (Pathfinder) or D&D5e pre-pandemic). I am constantly astonished at what the shenanigans of your imagination (anyone's) can get into when you let it run wild. I think about how Junji Ito described his work on Sensor. He said he wanted to know his "main character" but she just kept running away. Which really sounds like what's happening with your solo-crew because Dave is about to unearth some kind of new power or something pertaining to being "half-formed" due to his dad =P! Sounds pretty epic by the by =)
I did think about radio a couple of months back. Like radio, radio - radio stations. On account of being some kind of social monster-butterfly and getting my gooey fingers all over the joint. I thought about the college radio station pre-covid and how I liked the jams people played but also how interesting it was to see as it is something relatively antiquated by this point in our culture. But that DJs are wonderful, in the sense that they very mindfully assemble a simple playlist and then share it hoping for the best. I guess I mean college DJs, things shift a lot when you leave that domain. Super observant bit at the end about the essence of radio. I think that would be peak "neurodivergent" thinking right? I remember it was the same for me. In school, people would always be looking one way and it would be a lot of leap-frog and I would always be looking the other and smacking things together to see if they worked. I used to be ashamed about it, but I think it might be our magic touch. Eh!
Thank you for sharing =)
