We ended up being a good match, like a perfect pair of Lego blocks.
We are two halves of one whole idiot.
Many players shared similar stories with me ahead of the big day.
We frequently ran dungeons together and started playing other games on the side.
After really getting to know each other for about two years, we decided to give things a shot.
We officially got together in January 2022 and had our Eternal Bonding in-game on the 24th.
Lumi and Aadra
We recently renewed our in-game vows.
We’re very happy together and can’t wait for what our future holds.
Players Astrid and Kitsune are picture perfect proof of that.
Lumi and Aadra
I met Astrid when I moved servers to be with an ex-friend of mine, Kitsune tells me.
I joined an FC that had a few Australians in it.
When I introduced myself, she replied with the most unique greeting I’ve ever seen.
She typed in, sniff sniff smells like accomplishments.
I was too stunned to say anything more than ‘Uhh, ok?’.
But that’s how we first met.
Endo and Carnelian
We just hit it off from that point.
I was her friend for three years, then her boyfriend for another three years.
Little did I know how effective it was.
Jesse and Xanthe
I actually met my girlfriend throughEsprit, a player called Jesse tells me.
When Esprit was first starting, we were doing a show for a content creator’s birthday.
It was my first big show.
Shu and Empress Saiko
I was incredibly nervous, and I think it showed.
We started dating a couple of months later and have been together for close to a year now!
Players Endo and Carnelian told me about meeting through a Blitzball RP event.
Skiggleisfine and KonoeKarou
We were on different teams, Carnelian says.
We became friends shortly after that, but we didn’t talk too much at the time via DM.
I think once Endo started working at my venue, that was when we started chatting more.
Endo tells me they took a brief hiatus after that Blitzball season.
It took communication and time before we both started opening up and being honest.
Once we learned more about each other, our relationship started to really grow.
A player called Empress Saiko tells me they met their partner at an in-game club.
The interior was stunning, with this massive dance floor and VIP area on the back wall.
I was like, Okay, this place knows what’s up.
Let’s get VIP and chill here for a bit.
He kept checking in and asking if we needed anything, and how people were doing.
It was so much fun.
I wanted to come back every week, and so I did.
Another player tells me how she met her two partners through RP events.
From there, we became better friends, while our elves became better girlfriends.
It was at this time that her girlfriend introduced her to a new friend.
It took a night of sleep deprivation for us to confess our slowly building gay to each other.
We met around June 2021, Skiggleisfine tells me about his partner.
The pandemic was still in full swing, and everyone was working from home.
It was also a period when RP venues were in full swing.
I ran BarDaisuki while she ran NightLux.
We met for the first time during an Elezen meetup.
It wasn’t until a few months later, in August 2021, that we would grow closer.
I started frequenting her venue, which at the time was a nightclub with escort services.
At the time, I really wanted to experience the ERP scene.
I had only heard rumors, and this seemed a friendly place to try new things.
The person I turned to for comfort was none other than the head boss of the Nightlux establishment.
While its easy for others to say its just a game, to many it is so much more.
