Poll Time: Meta-conversations! (Patreon)

The chat is up and rambling and several people have mentioned missing the old Livejournal meta-conversations, where I talked to the characters and they talked back. (And sometimes some of you talked to them in comments, and they answered!) I admit, I assumed this to be something that only works for a very few people, because it can make the canonical narrative feel contrived or fake (if the character is off fighting a war elsewhere, how can he be hanging out with me, chatting?). Or if it did work, it worked only for some settings (like Kherishdar, where the conceit is that the characters are aware of us.)

But it seems more than a handful of the folks in the chat liked them, and wouldn't mind seeing them again, and for other settings like the Pelted one. And this is so startling that I felt I should ask if they are alone!

So! Meta-conversations: yes? No?
