  1. "Wait, what is this? What are you planning to..."
  2. A sweating Olivarino fell to his knees. It had been long since he'd had to produce this much mycelium at once. I should have trained more instead of spending all my day at the microscope, he scolded himself. But the result was worth it. The giant snake - probably Tyranoserpens, although it could also be a Brobdingnag Python from what he could see - was completely stuck. It hissed, and wrestled against its prison, but it couldn't get out. Good, since Olivarino wouldn't be able to replicate this feat for at least a few hours. He turned towards the girl, while still looking around for his case. "Listen, kid. This is a dangerous place. I can help you back to civilization, I've got a boat somewhere around here. But first, I need to get my case. It contains what I've come here for." If he couldn't find it, then all those days on this island would have been for naught.
  3. Granted, it ends. And then it restarts. I wish for the weather to get less tremendously hot.
  4. Olivarino decided that asking more questions would only confuse him more. He turned back towards the snake, extending his hand towards it. Extremely thin, white tendrils started sprouting from the ground around the snake, and climbed on his body, as if trying to restrain it.
  5. I had a dream recently, in which I was in a high school class, and then some students turn out to be half-human half-animal chimeras? and then a teacher shows up, except he's actually Brandon Sanderson and the Doctor. He tries to help the chimeras, but then it turns out that I had been dead the whole time. ...I think, my memories of that dream are kinda fuzzy. Anyway, 16th Doctor = Brandon Sanderson. Also, does it show that I've been rereading FMA lately?
  6. Olivarino realized what was coming at him, threw himself on the little girl, and they rolled on the ground, ending a few meters away. "You forgot to mention that thing" he grumbled at the girl. "Wait, what do you mean by shimmer-induced?"
  7. I wish to be able to remember to put wishes.
  8. "Uhm, maybe? What do you need help with?" answered Olivarino, while looking in every direction. "And by the way, have you seen a wide brown case, full of glass bocals? I've lost it..." He briefly covered his ear, trying to get rid of that annoying buzzing, to no avail.
  9. Granted. You lose any ability to explain anything to anyone.
  10. "War! What is it good for? Absolutely everything!" @Just A Silvereye
  11. ...okay. *deep breath* So it begins. A noise of broken branches came from behind the Tyrannoserpens. Then, a small, slightly round figure emerged. It was a man, wearing beige outfits and sporting an astonishing mustache. "I'm sorry to interrupt, but do you happen to have seen my mushroom samples?" asked Professor Olivarino to the silhouette he could see in front of him.
  12. Well, I have been using pi forever, and I don't like changing stuff. It logically follows that tau is heresy and all of you should be burned at the stake, for I shall not admit that one prefers doing things differently of me.
  13. Wait, how long has it been? A week or two? *checks* oh...

     

    Anyway, I'm back! Sorta. I won't try to make too many promises, but I'll try to be a bit more here now 😆

     

    Life update for me:

    Some of you might know already, but the beginning of the year was extremely rough. There was a school project that dominated everything at that point, that was one of the last things I needed to graduate, and it was a mess from start to finish, so I... kinda collapsed

    In the end, it did end up validated, mostly on a sentiment of "you couldn't have done well anyway with that subject tbf"

     

    For the good though

    With all that was happening in January, I ended up being pushed to start an antidepressant treatment

    and as far as I can tell, it's helping a lot

    also, after a few months of very annoying searching, I managed to get an internship!

    It's so late I gotta enroll in the school for next year administratively, because else it wouldn't count

    but I HAVE AN INTERNSHIP

    I START NEXT SEPTEMBER

    and once I'm done with that, I'm out of that freaking school and won't ever have to deal with them again

    Wheeeeeee

     

    In other stuff, I started trying to translate a big EU4 mod into French, with only the little issue of it being 8M words 😅 about 16 times WaT

    I am starting to study for my driver's license, finally

    Been reading a bit (Murderbot is awesome btw; and so is Dandelion Dynasty, in a whole other register)

     

    And you, how about you? How has it been these past few months?

      Horray!!! You're alive!!!! (I do not mind being Inky in the slightest! :D)

      *hugs* Good to hear from you again! Glad you're doing well and no longer drowning completely. Go Silvereye!! (Ooo, can I call you Silvery? No is a valid answer)

      (I am also in heatwave zone at the moment and I think I've lost 86% of my sapience as a result)

      I'm doing well! Very tired but still alive and mostly cheerful. Anything cool coming up for you?

      Inky :D

       

      Other people have already nicknamed me Silver, but Silvery is good too! I'm fine with everything really/ Except Silvy (cause that's an older French woman name) 

       

      (yeah i am not doing this much better

      why is it like, global warming and not global freezing

      at least we could survive global freezing with the power of cocooning in our warm nests)

       

      Nice to hear!
