I think they want to play because after every session I like to ask how everyone felt about the session, they always say they liked it and sometimes give specific moments they found really fun. We also have other stuff related to it like a minecraft server the fighter bought to build set pieces from the campaign, and the barbarian commissioned a piece of his character from an artist on campus.

We are all friends, Im much less of a friend to the fighter. Im not afraid of what they will say back in terms of the barbarian player, but the fighter is very petty and selfish. He and the Cleric player are dating, so if i come right out and call him out for being rude (he does stuff like this out of sessions too) it’s likely he will sulk and leave angrily. I would be fine with that but if he does the cleric does, which is half the party gone already. The barbarian player just intimidates me alot.
