Kri "Dima" Dupont (he/they) of the Serpent's Hand and Min (he/him) - home reality TK-495

[arma-innocentia]

Introduction

Hello, everyone! I'm Kri Dupont, but you all know me as Dima. For those who don't know, I'm a wizard from space and rabble-rousing member of the Serpent's Hand. It's 2048 here, but I'll try not to spoil the future too much, yeah? I hope we can all have a good time ✌️

... I'm Min. I'm here too. I'm 43 like Kri but also 12, and I like cartoons, colouring, video games, and playing with my toys... I have a friend I made. Her name is Suki and she looks like a weasel but she's a robot. ... I'm a little shy, but I hope we get along and stuff... Thank you

What's your favorite color?

Oh, hi! It's been a while. Um... Pink! Or green. I like both of those colours

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

I'm sorry about that. I haven't been very awake, recently. I am, now, though. I can work with that.

[arma-innocentia]

That's okay! Mm..? For what? And now I'm wondering.. do you have a favourite?

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

Plum, I guess. Or slate gray. One of those. I should do my nails.

Oh, I want to make something, but I needed more than just the idea of making.

[arma-innocentia]

Ah, alright! Inspiration stuff... Plum is a nice one. I like that one. Grey isn't very... colourful, but it's like rocks and roly polies, so I see how it's nice, too. Sometime, I like to paint my nails. Or I guess claws would be the right word for me. ... I like glitter kinds!

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

Inspiration is a weird shaped word. Gray is like metals, too. Well, I guess some aren't, but most are. I used to do them a lot, but I stopped when I moved. I don't know that I ever used much glitter, though. Rene wants my nails to stay long, which is effort.

[arma-innocentia]

Oh, it's easy to fall out of habits and stuff, even if it's stuff you like.. Does nail polish help keep them from breaking so they stay long? It would make sense for it to, like armour... It's nice to want to look nice for someone you like, even if it's more work to

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

I think it does, but I'm unsure. I would do everything for him, it's nice.

[arma-innocentia]

Aw.. Would he for you, you think? I hope so. Caring about someone that much and being cared about that much is a good feeling... I think, anway

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

He did. He did a lot.

[arma-innocentia]

That's good.. I'm glad. You love each other lots

[arma-innocentia]

Good evening, I need a better sleep schedule. Anything interesting?

Oh! Hiya.. hm.. I got a new colouring book recently. Two, actually! One's of nature things, like bunnies and birds and flowers, and the other one is puppies. And.... Kri made us blondies today, and I could barely wait for them to cool down because they smelled really good. I had one as soon as I could and then one after dinner. He didn't make brownies because he's allergic to chocolate. Did you know? And how have you been lately?

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

Things are going okay. Rene is delaying some work things to make sure I'm okay. The chocolate thing rings a couple bells, so I think I knew, but wasn't exactly actively aware, that's how it feels some people are about things about me, too, so I can't be too guilty. Still, I wish I were able to be actively aware of more things. I'm almost done with a craft project, I'm practicing for something. Someone thinks I'm a friend, which is odd. I'm not sure much else is worth sharing. We have some big plans, but they're secret.

[arma-innocentia]

I see.. sometimes I know things without being fully aware of them until I realize sometime later, too. What kind of craft project? I like crafts. Like... making stuff with construction paper and paper plates and popsicle sticks or... other random things. I guess you aren't used to friends, or you don't feel the same way back..? I won't ask more about the big plans. I'm.. curious.. but Kri sometimes has big plans they keep secret, too, so I know not to pester about it

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

A rug, it's good for resting my brain. I'm very unused to friends, it was my job to be reviled for a long time. I have a better job, now. I imagine Kri would, given Katja does. It's good to be curious, and even better to be able to temper it.

[arma-innocentia]

A rug is cool! Your old job doesn't sound great... like being a pizzarazzi. Everyone hates those guys. What's your new job like?

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

It was a mixed bag, but I think I did all the good I could there. I mostly work on checking over stuff now, to make sure ideas are sound before trying them. If someone wants to make paint a new way, for example, I check the science to see if it makes sense before we try.

[arma-innocentia]

Oh, that's pretty neat! It sounds pretty important. It's good to have someone who knows stuff double check big decisions

[arma-innocentia]

I made peanut butter and cheerio bars for the first time as an easy snack for Min to grab when I'm away, and I'll just say, I've discovered a new food to eat twenty of at a time

Mmm... I like them, too. I like them with baby carrots

Be right back, firebombing the GOC.

Best of luck!

Hello, sorry it's been a while. Last month was hectic. Are you doing well? Have you learned anything interesting?

Ah, I thought I sent something a few days ago, but it might have been eaten, if so, I apologize. I hope learning is well.

Oh..! No, sorry.. we just didn't get shown there was a message for some reason. Hi. Recently, I learned, um... pandas change their bamboo eating patterns through the seasons to maximize their nutrition

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

No need to apologize, it isn't your fault that technology is not my friend. That's odd, I never knew much about pandas, though.

[arma-innocentia]

Mhm, Kri found me a book of bear facts! Some of it was basic stuff, like... that they hibernate and how that works and that their claws are made of keratin, but there's more obscure stuff like that in there... It's neat. I'm not reading it front to back because it's a lot; I'm just flipping through randomly. I like finding a new page I hadn't read before

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

That's reasonable, I don't think I've read most textbook style books fully, either. It's probably good that you have Kri with you to help sort what to read, too.

[arma-innocentia]

Yeah! He can find me books pretty easily, and.. they're better at asking other people for help looking than I am

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

I know that feeling at least somewhat. I think I'd het too nervous about accidentally finding something like ruining a surprise or something. It's not terribly likely, but I'd worry. It's alright, though, I just read what I do have. I should start on this book I bought, myself.

[arma-innocentia]

What's the book you've got about?

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

Substances that predominantly act on the brain, I think both therapeutic and recreational uses are covered, but I've been having a really hard time reading. I'm not sure what's going on with that.

[arma-innocentia]

Oh, huh, that sounds like it could be interesting to read about! It's a little hard for me, too. I can't do it for a long time at once. ... Is that a new thing for you?

[anewdawnwithoutfear]

It is. I used to read and write very fast, I used to be very good at it. It's probably just being tired.

[arma-innocentia]

Mhm.. hopefully it goes back to the way it used to be soon
