A geek moment

Okay, so have you ever been reading a fantasy novel and you thought, "Wow. That's a really nifty magic system. I wonder how it really WORKS, mechanically," and then you thought, "If I worked out the machanics, I could write down rules for a roleplaying game for it, and that would be a good way of quantifying it," and then you realized, "hey, the person who wrote this fantasy novel also wrote one of my favorite GURPS suppliments," and then you realized, "wait -- we read each other's LiveJournals -- I could just ask HER if she's ever thought of writing up GURPS mechanics for the magic system in The King's Peace.".

Oh. Well, that's happened to me, anyway.
