Ahhh, Fandom.

RENT RPGs are a little strange.

RENT RPGs which are set 'post RENT', and yet have a living Angel? What, exactly, is going on with /that/?

Did they just completely not realize that Angel is pretty much designed to die. That his death and how the other characters deal with that is one of the driving plot points of the story? The good die young and all that crap.

*sigh*

Poor Angel. You and Sirius Black will never be allowed to die by the fangirls.

Mmm, zombieAngel.

Really, unless he's some kind of spirit guide (angel Angel?), you've missed the whole point.

Fangirls aren't the only ones pissed that Sirius died. *shifty-eyes* I gotta go.

*giggles, hugs!*

It was a cheap death, I admit.

Dammit, Sirius isn't dead. He's just... missing. He'll be back! Honest! (right?) (please?)

As for an Angel RPG, I've just got to ask, why?

[pyrephox.livejournal.com]

*patpats* There, there. Sure he will.

Not an Angel RPG, but an RPG based on the musical RENT (which just happens to have a character named Angel in it). As to why? From what I can tell...the chance to be pretty doomed rebels, angsting and sexing each other up.

Er... "Hi! I have AIDS! I'm dying. So are all my friends. How're you?" ...somehow doesn't strike me as a great RPG theme. Am I just too conventional?

[pyrephox.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Y'know, when you put it that way, you've got a great point.

But see, a lot of online RPers THRIVE on angst and sex, which RENT has plenty of in spades. So there's an audience!

Well if he comes back and then dies, maybe a few times, it kinda keeps the theme, right? Or is undead, that's a popular Sirius plo too.

Vampire Angel! ((oh wait, that was done, wrong fandom))
