Because I don't wanna get fat.

But that reminded me of how close we are to get a new GOTM entry, you know, the one we're a bunch of OCs gather and die, that's the one.

Which left me wondering, should I start giving the GOTM threads actual names? Like just calling em GOTM25 or something instead of just titling them whatever.

I wanna know if putting random bs as the thread title for these funni or just annoying, so lemme know what ya like better.

happy almost 1st of April too.

rejoice

and he has a flamethrower.

Anecdote time baby

So I went to one of those lab thingies to get my blood checked recently, not that I'm sick or anything, it was just to make sure there's nothing wrong with myself, which there wasn't!

But that's not the point.

The point is, when the nurse pricked me with the syringe she started to struggle a bit, guess blok anatomy made things unnecessarily difficult for her, cuz she started moving the needle under my skin, desperately looking for a vein.

She said "let me know if you feel any pain" and I was like "sure" and so I sat there without making the slightest of noises nor movements, watching a needle wiggle under my skin, the nurse even removed the needle and reinserted it back, just to not find a vein again.

She tried removing it and inserting it back for a third time and so she finally was able to find some sweet sweet blood to extract.

Truly, the experience of all times.

Scary anecdote time.

This happened to Nerine, she used to experience a lot of hard to explain stuff? dunno how to call it, but this is one example of that.

We had decided one night to go to sleep on the living room, putting the 2 sofas facing each other so we could talk a bit before going to sleep.

I fell asleep, cuz me eepy, but Nerine was still awake, although not too far behind going to Dreamland, she was in that state in which u still see what's going on and such but your eyes are almost entirely closed.

She said that while in that state, she saw me getting super close to her face, like if I were about to give her a kiss or something, and she just stay put, waiting to see what I do, but I wasn't moving at all, I was just there, very close, staring at her.

After a while she decided to properly open her eyes to ask what's going on, but as soon as she did she realized that I was, in fact, on the other sofa sleeping.

The sofas weren't too far apart, like, maybe 2m between each other max, but still, it was imposible that I could move faster than Nerine's eyelids to go from one sofa to another and pretend to be asleep.

Also very important, I don't recall any of this ever happening, she told me this the next morning.

Very weird.

This just happened a couple of hours ago, this story begins when I decided to get a gift for Nerine, a jacket that she said she wanted, more specifically. 

So I got the jacket, Nerine wasn't home, so I decided that instead of giving her the gift when she arrived, I'd just put it on a coat hanger and left it on her wardrobe and let her find it herself, it was on plain sight, literally first thing you'd see if you entered her room and looked right.

And so I did that, she eventually arrived, and I said absolutely nothing, most of the day we spent it in the living room, like usual, but she went twice to her room and didn't notice it. 

Like, the second time she went in she grabbed something on a shelf that was right next to the jacket and she didn't see anything, I was talking to her all the while and I couldn't believe it, I was holding my laughter as much as possible, making sure she didn't see me so she didn't ask any questions, it was 100% in her range of vision YET SHE DIDN'T NOTICE. 

It wasn't until like, 5 hrs later after she went to her room for a 3rd time that she finally saw it, I was on the couch in the living room when I just heard Nerine scream my name sounding very excited, she liked it a lot, she hugged me so hard I almost got squashed, too bad it was a bit too big for her, but she liked it anyways so doesn't matter.

Commissions are temporarily closed, not feeling great lately, sorry.

So, peoapple, I was wondering, would you like for me to make an art forum thread in which your OCs would be drawn, not by me but be Nerine even if they are poorly drawn?

This is a hypothetical scenario that will never happen, since I've already asked her if she would like to participate and the answer was a solid no.

I don't wanna force her to do anything, because I know she doesn't like to draw, so I'm just asking this because part of why I think she said no is because she seems to stress too much about making the drawings look perfect to not disappoint, but I'm pretty sure most of you wouldn't mind, since the objective of my threads are mostly just to have fun, so that's why I'm asking.

So I remember this one time, I went with Nerine to pay a little visit to her aunt, no idea what we did there but it don't matter cuz it isn't relevant to this story.

At one point Nerine started feeling ill, I think her head was aching as well as feeling nauseous or something, point is, her aunt gave her a pill that was supposedly meant to relief the pain, she took it and not too long after we went on our merry way back home, walking.

Now, her aunt had mentioned that the pill could have some "side effects" and they became very noticeable on our walk home, Nerine started saying random nonse and wanted to side track everytime she saw literally anything, like, she'd see some random stairs from a house and be like "where do they lead to? Shoko let's go, where do they lead to" like if these things where the most interesting things ever.

It was a bit of a chore to convince her every now and then that we should get back home and not sidetrack, but I also was having some fun watching her behaving like a 5 year old, amazed by anything.

At one point we stumbled upon a utility pole, which had a poster of a black missing dog, Nerine saw this and she just looked at me with the saddest face ever saying "Shoko we have to find him" and GOD was it hard to convince her to let the dog poster go.

She was even saying that she swore she saw a passing by car that had the dog, and that we should go back and rescue him, I think I saw the car too, and while the dog in the car was indeed black, it was an entirely different breed, I thought Nerine would start crying at any point from how sad and desperate she sounded, she cares about animals very much.

We got home safe, after the effects disappeared Nerine told me she could remember none of this.

Funny thing that has been happening lately.

I can't quite remember how it all started it's been days already, I think I wanted to give Nerine something, idk, point is, we made contact, which, lead to me giving her a little zap by accident, I didn't meant to (this one time at least) cuz Nerine reeeeally doesn't like being shocked.

She yelled a bit and I got a little smack as a reward, her punches don't hurt so it's ok (don't tell her I said that).

But what's interesting is that since then it seems like Nerine has became a living battery or something, because at random moments throughout the day I'd suddenly hear her scream her lungs out and then find out she zapped herself while trying to open the fridge, or the water tab, or by touching anything made out of metal.

Her fear of accidentally shocking herself got to the point she doesn't wanna make direct contact with me anymore.

But it ain't that big of a dread, cuz sometimes she'll forget or straight up don't care anymore, just to then get herself zapped again.
