This is a dumb question, but I can't take this anymore. I have to ask.
What's with all of these weird craft videos online and why are they like that? Is this some sort of satire I don't get because I haven't been here long enough? Who is this for?
I mean, baking an entire multi-colored cake only to cut a slice and freeze it in resin... That's got to be some kind of joke I'm not getting, right?
[Guess who somehow managed to end up in a horrible clickbait rabbit hole at 3 AM?]

It started off as research.
I don't have an answer as to how it got to this point.

It's my "job" here. Apparently.

"A life coach is someone who counsels and encourages clients through personal or career challenges."
So

Hold on.
I'm awake because I don't sleep. Why are you awake right now?

The question forms and nearly slips away all in the same instant. Even here, even through text, their every question has a habit of escaping them when it comes to Vergilius.]
As long as it's working out, I guess there's not much more I can say about it...
no subject
its not your responsibility, dante
its fine. im used to it
no subject
Nevermind.

If it's something you can't help then that's one thing, but if you can, then...
You told me to take care of myself, so shouldn't you be doing the same?
no subject
you have become a thorough manager, dante. i will admit, i'm mildly impressed.
i'll be a little real with you, dante, as the kids say.
wouldn't know where to start.
no subject
You could always go with what you'd tell all of us if we weren't.
no subject
"i stay awake most nights deep in my own thoughts"?
no subject
I might know something that could help with that, but I don't know if you're gonna like it.
Have you ever thought of keeping a diary?
no subject
like the one you keep?
no subject
[They can't see Vergilius needing to keep track of all the different terms and technologies around him like they do.]
It helps sometimes, getting your thoughts out there, making them a little more "real." They don't go away, not completely, but... They don't feel as "trapped" up there either, if that makes sense.
