PHEW OKAY!! TIME TO WRITE ANOTHER ONE OF THESE!! Wow it's been a LONG time now, I'm really sorry! Honestly not much has really happened these past few months, we were all just really busy.
I'm just gonna get straight to the point, Alien had to serve time in a hospital.
Remember back when I thought it was really funny that he gets worked up about off-brand food? Well... now I'm getting paranoid and I feel like maybe I should also do that, because Alien came down with a food poisoning, and it was.. bad.
It's a good thing that we can both breathe in space, because otherwise all the throwing up would probably kill us both. Poor thing had to drive too, since I can't do it.
I feel bad not just for mocking him about being picky, but also because I thought that this is going to be a quick hospital visit but it turned out that he was in a pretty bad condition.
I learned a lot though. Sapurrians are really sturdy type of alien that can take a lot of things that would hurt other aliens, but if they actually get hurt somehow, they take a long time to recover. I guess it's kinda like me and my star gems in that aspect?
Anyway, most poisons don't work on Sapurrians, they can breathe in space and under water, they are just really damn resilient. But there are some foods that completely turn their stomach and... well that's what we came across.
When Sapurrians get too exhausted, they turn into small kitties which is usually not that big a deal, because they can just recharge (like batteries!), but it's really bad if they are small AND sick, because their body basically doesn't know what to do with itself and, after a while, just kinda shuts down.
Luckily it wasn't that far or that bad for Alien, he got help fast enough, but he had to stay in the hospital for a long time because he needed to be recharged slowly so that his body wouldn't be agitated or something.
I was really worried for the guy, I mean, he's a grownup but when he's a kitty he looks like a tiny baby and it makes me ten times more worried than I should be. They had a little kitty bed in the hospital and all. It's lucky that this hospital was equipped for Sapurrians.
I got him earphones and put on some Fire Bomber for him (but just the calm songs) and I like to think that this helped too. He was DEFINITELY purring. He was still so I got some really nice sketches of him done, I hope he doesn't mind me sharing them.
He was released from the hospital about a week later, but we were taken back to Sapurrn where he was given into the care of his parents. I didn't want to bother so I just went my own way until he contacted me!
I didn't do much interesting stuff, just a LOT of work, since I'm still getting ready for another """art""" convention (I KNOW IT'S AN ANIME CONVENTION ALIEN YOU CAN STOP TRYING TO CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE). With all the material from last time and this time, I should have enough to last me for a while, so next convention will probably be much lighter on my work schedule!
You know, I'm really happy Alien got me into this. I had no idea that I could actually earn money with art, and if Alien wouldn't insist that I pay him rent for living in his space ship, I would probably never even try. What a great and supportive landlord I have! I wonder if those shiny skeletons will appear on this convention as well. I made sure to draw more cute anime girls because the last time it seemed that they really liked those!
And the LAST reason I haven't had time to write a new log entry was, that after Alien got all better and we left for space again, we had company! Yeah... THREE people in our little space ship. It was a bit crowded, but we spent a lot of time docked to planets or larger space stations, and he spent a lot of time away to explore. He being Alien's younger brother who absolutely does not look like Alien's younger brother. He was fun company! Mostly when we were all together we just watched anime. I guess it's in the Eirian blood to be a weeb.
That's all I have to say for now, I really hope that I'll be able to write the next entry sooner, maybe I'll let you know how the convention went!! One thing I know for sure is that I will now also be picky about what I eat on other planets.
