I miss my diary

[crantz]

I used to keep a daily diary and for some reason stopped last spring when I went to visit my girlfriend to see the eclipse. Maybe something happened to me when the sun went out and that child started screaming* but who is to know?

The Pathfinder game I joined is going well. I am an extreme coward, using my ghosts (I'm an animist) to check behind doors before we enter and the times I don't check and we walk into an ambush, I shut the door and get away from it very quickly. I don't think I've actually done physical damage in a fight yet, but I use telekinetic hand and figment to disarm and distract a lot.

I am an orc.

Current Cthulhu campaign ends soon - we're in a Sar is the gm cycle - and I become GM again and we will be doing a Catthulhu one, which is just call of Cthulhu but everyone is a cat. There's an actual system for it that I own, but what I actually do is use regular CoC modules and add animal npcs and stuff for information gathering.

I have a fic that's due in a few days. Pray for Johnny.

Speaking of, I also have to face the titcrusher5000 for a medical checkup today and I'm not looking forward to baby's first mammogram at all.

EDIT: When I was a youth I saw a news clip about my city's new titcrusher5000 and it pasted this very old lady's breast into the thinnest of pancakes and that is what I thought was going to happen to me and I was terrified but apparently that was more of 'she was an old lady with very little fat there' and less the standard so it was uncomfortable but not hideously painful. Go team.

MUSHI

it went okay!

I went to a breast exam once but sadly they didn't show me all their tools to intimidate me like the bad guys on TV, so I don't know if they had that particular device.

Do normal Cthulhu sanity rules apply to cats?

'we have many ways to make you talk...'

I had to go into the hospital to see it and it's a very intimidating machine! Very big! And it spins! Thankfully they don't attach you to it while it spins.

I do have it apply to them! The cats growing more unhinged delights me so.

i'm going to have "Titcrusher5000" going through my head when I get my first mammogram in a couple years, thank you

My work here is done.

Your pathfinder campaign sounds awesome, I love playing... less accepted races. Currently playing a drow in a 5e Waterdeep campaign! Love some unorthodox strategies.

[crantz]

I'm having a great time but noticing that since the main rp games I've done before this involve a lot more 'writing' and less 'rolling' I have a lot more 'well I want to try this' uses of my ability/concept that the GM never considered before. He says he likes it and he's not deliberately trying to shut it down so I think he means it!

[verpine]

That's awesome, I love a good creative solution, my DM is also really flexible and down to let us solve solutions in unorthodox ways. Which is cool because our current party literally refused to fight a giant spider that was in our house and instead relocated it (and its hundreds of babies) XD

Rincewind icon! Nice!

Have you been able to say "My ghosts don't know shit!" yet?

[crantz]

YES. I managed to last night! Because I failed an information roll when I asked to listen to the ghosts in the slaughtered banquet hall (apparently not really a mechanic in pathfinder even for an animist like me, but the GM was like ooh sure) so all I heard was the confused lamentation cacophony.

After I announced what I'd learned ("My ghosts don't know shit") I did indeed get the chuckles I was craving.

[phosfate]

You make me so proud.

Fuck, I'm gonna have to read Kate Mulgrew's book to see if there's anything about that show in there.
