I woke this morning to find my partner's side of the bed empty. Curious, I crept downstairs and found her grinning sheepishly at me over her monitor.

She woke up early to play Dwarf Fortress before work

There has to be a long, eloquent German word for this feeling. I wanted to call it "Gamer Compersion", "compersion" being poly jargon for, roughly, "joy for a partner's joy, regardless of source", but that's not quite right.

I am so incredibly in love. πŸ–€
