Yes, Hawk. I was planning on drawing something for each chapter whenever I can. Also for any side-stories if there are any. :eek:

Good morning~

Yes. Hopelessness has to be one of the most universal human experiences. Fortunately, in objective terms, hope is one of the only things that never truly expires.

Hahaha. I don't know. But it has its benefits to be a girl. It is rather challenging to come out as creepy. I have tried, trust me. ;P

Even though I need to say that if I for example say that I will spank someone, they usually don't take it as a threat but just ask is it a promise.
Click to expand...

For boys its challeging to come out as not creepy. Sometimes I write something in jest (lets say licking Lissars hand for example :p) and think: Wow... that sounded about 100 times more creepy than intended.

Spanking is not even an option haha.

I like seeing her in the snow because it's all black on white and so adorable. Unfortunately she does NOT appreciate being thrown in it.

I've mentioned this before, but I feel I should reiterate: When I was your age*, I felt like this every day, had screaming fits in my car during my commute to/from work, and cried myself to sleep every night. I had been somewhat depressed since age 13 and it really started hitting at age 24 when I discovered how underpaid I was. I was the poster child for that ForeverAlone pic, too. My life started very slowly turning around at 27 or 28, and it has very** gradually become amazing.

The best thing to really do is to separate (A) the things you have little control over and (B) the things you have control over; then use the items from the B column to gradually improve yourself in any measurable way you can. At that terrible point, I basically had two friends whom I didn't really like hanging out with. I had some money from my job, so I reconnected with college people an hour away who had a sort of communal house, and I just visited them weekly. They were an hour away, but it was really the only way I could get any sort of real social exercise. I also tried volunteering to help people (there was, for instance, a local organization that was getting together people to revitalize public schools), which gave me something to do that wasn't utter routine and also made me feel a little better about myself. The other thing I had control over was my own body. I took initially extreme measures and then a lighter touch to reduce my weight by 70lbs (~30kg) and get in better shape. Not eating takes no effort, just a little bit of masochism. Walking around, which is how I started exercise, is pretty easy if you're able to play games or read e-books while walking (my peripheral vision is pretty good, though I did hit my head into an errant tree branch every coupla weeks.

Anyway, if you focus on the things that you can conceivably change, and if you keep at it rather aggressively, you'll eventually find that things can improve over time. You just have to play the Long Game.





* lololol, I'm at the stage of life when I tell people "When I was your age..."

** Very: first drink at 30, first girlfriend at 30, first sexing at 31, first decent job (the current one) at 32; now I'm 36 and people think I'm some sort of social mastermind who's well off and gets laid all the time with a variety of models. I silently perpetuate these myths, and they're not without basis, but I'm just glad that people don't think I'm some sort of terrible person.

All right! Today is Free Apple Juice & Oreos Day, so I'm prepping my veins for the ritualistic bloodletting that precedes the celebration. Be back in like an hour! :D

Well, don't worry. I have quite similar problem, even if still slightly different. I don't sound that creepy, but I have been told that I sometimes managed to sound totally perverted and/or flirty, even when I don't even try... Which have sometimes made other people sound way more creepy, than I would have wanted. Especially if they are my old clients who open up on text messages that they send to my personal phone number.

So, I finally settled on and registered demigodmode.com (heh?)

RPG² Productions can now be reached at http://rpg.demigodmode.com/. It's still just the bios for now, but I'll work on expanding the site to include story chapters and so forth soon!

Owning my first-ever dotcom feels rather inspiring. I think it's time to quit my job and become a self-made man. Who wants to work for Hawkian? I'll give really good perks. For example, I'll write you into adorable short stories as a badass RPG character.

I found it highly amusing, but I'm low on blood now, so it may be a false amusement.


The upside? They had Sun Chips! :D

Also, I have lost 1 kilogram in the last hour. Their ritual magic is indeed strong.

edit: maybe I exaggerate by a factor of two, so their magic is half-strong. Still good enough.

Hahaha. No need to worry. I will. I can't help myself. Even if I don't even think I would be particularly perverted. It is just who I am and I think it is quite natural way of behaving.

Can someone btw open up what is the thing with aprons? I mean I sometimes use one at my working place, if I am doing something particularly dirty, and the comments I get are... lets say interesting, especially if I need to use the smaller ones that are just ridiculous.

I'll be in Germany for two months :eek: It's too bad Finland is a bit far, or else I'd try to convince my boyfriend to go :< If only you lived in Sweden! He lives on the Baltic coast so it would be a short boat trip (assuming this hypothetical you didn't live in the north of the country.) I already begged him to take me to Prague, and we might be visiting Belgium as well.

I never wear aprons, even when I should :eek: My clothes in my painting classes were a MESS! I never cared though. A bit of paint here and there gives clothes... personality.

Taking a very southern German city, Munich and taking a very northern city Oulu in Finland, the distance is approximately 1500 miles. That's only halfway across the US. You could make that in a day of solid driving. Hardly an excuse to rob poor Sadetar of a visit.

I am a good girl and I use apron especially if I am showing to people how to do iron castings and how to make casting model from oil sand. I don't want any of that stuff to my clothes.

Aha. Well. I assume it has something to do with them being form-fitting, with possible undertones of wearing an apron meaning you might be doing something that already puts you in someone's home.

Better than him hiding away at work and not being with her at all while she figures out what to do with all the leiderhosen hanging about.

Look.... consider the trip market research for art direction for our upcoming game being published by XSEED.

Lissar, I knew you'd be cool enough to make a comment about playing emulators with a 360 controller (as I do).

Fuck yeah. Attagirl.

Edit: That graphic pisses me off more and more the longer I let it linger in my mind. Zelda games I have played with a 360 controller include: The Legend of Zelda (Nestopia), A Link to the Past (ZSNESX), Ocarina of Time (Project64), and Twilight Princess (Dolphin). Come at me, people posting links thinking they're all clever and crap
