Claw showed me around a bit the other day, so I think I finally have a handle on this place (well, as much as anyone ever does).

More importantly! He gave me the idea to make a map. He's got his flowers to help him remember stuff about people, but I couldn't think of any not-super-dorky special system of my own, so I think I'm just going to take

OOC: THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER. SRSLY.

[distant_dragon]

Apparently what I do and don't know is somewhat odd to some people.

...

[child_proteus]

Understatement of the year. Again. Damn, how do you do that so well?

Don't encourage him.

heehee

[distant_dragon]

I didn't think I was that peculiar. Innate talent.

Why not?

[child_proteus]

You're twenty five shades of peculiar. But I like that about you, so whatever.

Just. Cause. The last thing anybody needs if your encouragement except for me.

[distant_dragon]

Only twenty-five shades? I'm slipping, it should be closer to thirty. Glad you approve, though.

My encouragement is that dangerous, is it? Hah. I see how you are.

[child_proteus]

Well if that's the case, you're going to have to try harder, Drake. I vote a proper diet and rigorous exercise to get you back in the groove.

It totally kind of is. I think the Sphere is powered daily by the encouragement that you dole out. Though, in the wrong hands, it could create a monster! And then the apocalypse would be nigh all over again.

[distant_dragon]

I suppose that means no more cupcakes for me. A shame, but if it's for a good cause I suppose I can pass on the cupcakes.

So my encouragement has the ability to bring about the end of the world as we know it. I think I like this.

OOC: TEE-HEE. I'm glad I'm not just amusing myself!

[unlostsoul]

It's just a weird mix! Whenever I think I've got a handle on what you probably wouldn't know, you recognize something weird, and I have to start all over again.

You're surprising. I'll put it that way.

I'm DYING here. I needed that.

[distant_dragon]

As I told Throne, I think the safest assumption is that if it's some form of slang or colloquialism I will probably not quite get it.

Surprising, hmm? Howso?

EXCELLENT. *thumbs up*

[unlostsoul]

See, I get that. But knowing about instant noodles and not supermarkets? That's what confuses me.

You're. Hm. Slippery. I dunno. Maybe it's just a side-effect of the amnesia, but it is hard to get a fix on how you are through these journals. ...Unless that's intentional, I guess.

*air guitar*

[distant_dragon]

Apparently the noodles exist wherever I'm from, but the concept of a 'supermarket' doesn't. Seems straightforward to me.

'Slippery', hm? Interesting. I don't believe it's intentional. Perhaps it's a habit that I wasn't aware I had.

[unlostsoul]

I get that. I do. I heard there's a couple of people out there who are from world's without Britain, so I really do get it. It just takes me by surprise still.

Unintentional, huh? Do you find that idea creepy? I find that idea all kinds of creepy.

[distant_dragon]

Count me in that list. I have no idea what 'Britain' even is, beyond Throne's description of what the people there tend to act like.

If it is indeed an unintentional habit, I find it less 'creepy' and more interesting -- as in, why would I be in the habit of obscuring things like that?

[unlostsoul]

Maybe I should start a new map specifically for people who don't know what Britain is. Except I don't think it's really important. I could probably live a happy and fulfilling life without knowing what Britain is. It's not like the British make sense anyway.

When you put it that way, I guess I can see why it'd be interesting. I was thinking more "If I'm doing this without meaning to, what else could I be doing?"

I'm not sure I can answer either of our questions.

[distant_dragon]

As long as I know it's a place in the world you and several others come from, that is probably good enough for now. That bad, hm?

If there are answers, I imagine they will come in time. If not, well...

[unlostsoul]

And I'd agree with that. If I remembered the horror stories, I'd tell them to you. But all I've got left is something about throwing up in the streets, fish and chips, fjords, and bad haircuts, so.

I admire your patience! I'm kinda all NOW NOW NOW about it, to the degree that I have just wanted to punch myself in the face for a few days.
