Also National Creativity Day. I am doing better at one of those than the other.

Didn’t sleep in quite as much as most Saturdays, so I guess that’s good. Did some shopping.

Watched (anime): Witch Hat Atelier 1.9: Just because you’re 11 doesn’t mean you can stay up forever, Coco! Also, Tartah, don’t ask those questions, it won’t make anybody happy if you get answers.

Watched (anime): Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1.7-8: And now we find out what demons really are and why they are that way, and how some humans still fall for it.

Read (manga): Love Bullet vol 1 (inee): Cute girls saved by the goddess of love from actual death become cupids but it’s the 21st century so they have guns with heart-shaped muzzles, and also they’re kind of fighty, probably because they can’t fall in love even with each other.

Written (Geometry for Mutants): 210. Rewrote what I wrote yesterday to make it more consistent, which arguably is not something I should be doing now, but it was All Wrong.

None of these modern factory-pond turtles that have been bred for nothing but size and transportability!

I was backup on call, so all my usual sleeping in and shopping and whatnot involved a computer sitting nearby, but as it turned out, no one needed me. Story of my life.

When we went over for anime, Ayse offered me some spare hot pot, but I butter-fingered it all over the floor and had to apologize for disrespecting the hot pot, which is like mother and father. This was hilarious to anyone who has seen one specific Chow Yun-Fat movie from the previous century, and incomprehensible to everyone else, as the best in-jokes are. I’m sorry I didn’t get to eat the hot pot, though, because it looked really good.

Watched (anime): Witch Hat Atelier 1.8: And now we know why nobody likes the Knights Moralis, not that Qifrey can complain!

Watched (anime): Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1.6: Why yes, despite his personality defects, Stark was trained by one of the legendary heroes. The dragon, apparently, was not.

Read (novel): Spirit Blade (Glynn Steward): An ex-Vatican monster hunter washes up as a bartender in a small city in Canada, where he finds out that monsters are still everywhere around him and also trying to eat his new girlfriend and her magic cat.

Read (novel): That Which Devours: Survive (Jer Patch): Instead of dying, or getting sucked through a portal, the main character arrives in the purview of the System by crashlanding on a new colony planet. It is full of Unexpected Dinosaurs, and also a lot of the colonists don’t seem to have been selected for mental stability, but our MC gets the special S-tier class Eat Their Heart And Gain Their Power. Om nom nom.

Read (from the shelf): FAIL.

Written (Geometry for Mutants): 183.

Have you even seen a pickle salute?

I not only slept in before shopping, I took a nap after shopping. Then we went to see anime and I made Marith stay in the cat-infested house until she expired of sneezings.

Watched (anime): Witch Hat Atelier 1.7: The carriage disaster.

Watched (anime): Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1.4-5: And now they have Stark, although he doesn’t realize it yet.

Read (from the shelf): FAIL.

Written (second rewrite of Geometry for Mutants): 381. I need to keep a list of everything my MC makes a mental note of, though, because

I was on call today, so I didn’t do anything. Some of the doing nothing was sleeping, but some was just doing nothing. Despite that, I was late to hand over to the next person, because I am dumb. I did manage a little shopping after handover.

Watched (anime): Witch Hat Atelier 1.6:We finally meet Olruggio and Coco gives him the rant about her love of magic. Then Agott gets to head out to help with the carriage disaster.

Watched (anime): Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1.2-3: Fern joins the party (over the course of like eight years). Frieren really does not understand any people, which is a problem because she is herself a person. She does love magic, though.

Read (from the shelf): FAIL.

Written (second rewrite of new project): 301.

 

Several of the audience survive every performance!

I slept in incompetently, but eventually went shopping and stuff.

Watched (anime): Witch Hat Atelier 1.3: And away Coco goes, to certain death in the trial she’s not at all qualified for.

Watched (anime): Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End 1.1: The first episode is all backstory and establishing vibes, so following the manga pretty close so far.

Read (manga): The Invisible Man & His Soon-to-Be Wife vol 5 (Iwatobineko): They’re getting mushier and introducing each other to their parents and even moving in together, but not having sex or anything like that.

Written (new project): 219.
