I look away for a few hours and Canary has annexed a whole week?

This might be heretical to say around this facility, but I mainly just drink coffee because it's there. I'm really more of a tea guy.

I do love me some natural wonders.

Speaking of which I do still have hazelnuts if anyone wants some, whether as snacks or for divination purposes.

Wow, man I can’t believe you guys missed my costume. That was crazy and will doubtless never be repeated or spoken of ever again.

I can’t believe Santos has rabies. [Has no idea what’s going on.]

Seraphine used to say that money is simply a catalyst in the wider reaction called society, it’s simply a means not an end… Kara would look rather appalled by the idea when she heard it and would try to explain the idea of having money in reserve to fall back on. I had never seen money before.

//Rory’s relationship with money is strange. He’s solidly middle class, but considers it to be a rather ascetic lifestyle… mostly compared to before where he earned a lot of money but also burned through it at an exorbitant rate. It’s just two sides of not caring for money.

Somehow I am so far removed from being a main character that they made me an NPC in some horse racing game.

Why is there so much screaming?

I don’t really smoke much anymore, so it’s only a half breakfast I guess.

Breakfast. [It's black coffee. That's it.]

Ahh, space vampire. How nouveau.

A lot of sneezing, must be illness going around.

//Wait… I was gone for 3 months. The last time I was here I was in my 20’s. Shit.

Personally my method of doing taxes is to just live in a country where double isn’t miserable.

Not telling your friends you value them is cringe… even if they’ll make fun of you for it.

I’m a little late, but the answer was Olwen by the way.

//Rory likes to act as though he’s matured and isn’t a problem on purpose anymore… But in reality he’s just a different kind of problem.

Mmm… yeah, the fourth floor is very liminal. Would not recommend.

How big that stew tho?

Oh wow, is it (Avoid) Therapy Thursday already? How the time flies.

//I fucked up. Gym hard. Body soft. I think I need to lay down.

I was raised to consider other powers like the line from the Terry Pratchett book. "That's no call to go around believing in them. It only encourages 'em." A bit hypocritical coming from Seraphine, but it's gotten me by so far.

You'll get rain sometimes as long as there's sun and water.

Alright, I guess I'm living in the dark for a while. Thanks existence.

It's just like, what if you built utopia and just... didn't build the Omelas basement?

Too bright, turn down sun.

It’s a harmful stereotype really.

I'm a tired middle aged man, that basically makes me the perfect side character in a gambling scene. And yet they won't let me play.

Because I'm always banned from competitive gambling, even though I keep telling people I'm not a mind reader. I'm just an empath.

Is Nemo mastophobic or something?

I didn't grow up with Muppets, I literally lived in the woods... and then I was a VERY troubled young adult. So you know, I haven't really had the exposure to get to know them.

People really say shit like "I love white chrysanthemums, their meaning really speaks to me" like they don't symbolize death and grief. Pick less depressing flowers please.

//Rory sure looks well adjusted next to all the maladjusted people.

//Unfortunately I'm 💤

Alright, I'm clearly not suited to this case. I'll play support to the heroes for now. [He's not sulking. How dare you imply he's sulking. He's being a TEAM PLAYER.] #ChaldeaIbiza

Do I have to? This shirt is already, almost certainly ruined. Wine stains are just... ugh... Alright. I need to avenge my poor clothes. It's a good old fashioned tower climb.

Aww man, Dollarstore Dionysus is who we're up against? [Cough] I mean... [sigh]... I've already fucked it haven't I? #ChaldeaIbiza

What the hell did they do to Casa Mila!? It's not my favourite looking building sure, but c'mon... and it's going to be a nuisance to scale like that. #ChaldeaIbiza

[Rory sighs from the rooftop he's perched on.] What a waste of good wine, or... well I don't know if it's much good, I don't drink floor wine. But it's the principle of the matter. I guess someone better check that out... yeah, okay fine. I guess I'm someone. #ChaldeaIbiza

As an expert on the topic, the answer is "It depends".

This was a good decision. A nice walk around a lake might have been what I needed after spending time in a really urban area.

I'll pass. Someone has to keep an eye on the situation while everyone else is occupied with clearing the labyrinth.

(っ,-)

Aren't we all just a *w* pillow in the washing machine of life?

//Yesterday was super needed. I did sweet fuck all.

You don't want me.

//Me shaking the Meredith stick threateningly, as I do whenever the topic of empathy comes up.
