Hey Azi,

Something I noticed... Willow isn't connected to Jonathan. She is connected to the security cameras in the tower. She wouldn't have been able to detect that someone else was watching Jonathan through his own "Programming etc." So there would be nothing to take her away from her connections to the tower & she is still unconscious on the street. ( The rest with the robot sentry is fine.. I have plan for that, but she wouldn't be awake to hear it.) I will make changes immediately. fixed.

Anyways, I'll be leaving tomorrow to drive to Houston, BC, to start orientation and then begin my career in security. The company pays for my hotel and food, so that's cool. Will be gone for two weeks, but I will have access to Wifi in the hotel, so I should still be around. Got two suitcases and two large bags full of stuff for my work-trip, ha!



In other news, America isn't looking so good. Economy is at risk, more tax cuts to support the wealthy elite, coronavirus possibly spreading, anti-health care--none of this looks good. To my American friends, now is a good time to start stockpiling medicine because if coronavirus spreads, panic will also spread, making it harder to get whatever medicine that may help. If all else fails, elderberry sort of helps against coronavirus, but you must cook/boil/steam elderberry first as it is poisonous and will kill you.

Posted for Omega!

Anyways, to any who may care, I begin my security guard career tonight in a couple hours. Will be living in this motel for two weeks--all paid for by my company--and work twelve hour graveyard shifts for two weeks straight. I was always a nocturnal person, so it suits me. Besides, this damn motel is quite loud and noisy at nighttime, almost impossible to sleep, but daytime tends to be quieter, so might as well sleep during the day, work at night.

Oh, and just to clarify, the pipelines and worker camps I patrol are not part of the crude oil industry. Although there's protests across Canada over the dangers of pipelines breaking and spilling oil everywhere, the CGL pipeline actually won't be transporting crude oil, but natural gas. Natural gas is actually much cleaner and easier than both oil or coal. For example, one shipment of natural gas is the equivalent of eight shipments of coal, and the equivalent of a few shipments of oil. Natural gas is a good step reducing the carbon footprint.

Although the protesters down in Vancouver are especially anti-pipeline, heating is very expensive in Vancouver, so natural gas import would help reduce heating costs for many homes plus use less electricity.

Another thing, when pipelines do explode due to failure, it's usually because they were built under towns, or towns were built atop pipelines--so the chances for an accident, spark, ignition, or unintentional damage goes way up. Pipelines in British Columbia are built out in the wilderness, far away from residential areas as much as possible.
Of course, poorly-made pipelines break, as what happened at Standing Rock.

Natural gas is, well, natural. You can literally drink natural gas mixed with water and you'll actually be alright. I know people from Edmonton who grew up on farms with water so gassy, they could light up fires from their taps. They washed in and drank such water for their whole lives and are alright.

Finally have some time to post for Vampyro. I hope to get a few posts up today

Got some new posts up for everyone involved with Vampyro; we are finally out of the castle and are about halfway to the forest; I rushed a little bit and went a little farther than I should have. My plan is to wait for Ellyssa to post, get back to Alexandre, heal him of his poisoning; then we can escape.

Typical of me. I just ripped galdrar out of Fire Emblem Path of Radiance/ Radiant Dawn change how they work a bit, and throw it into Vampyro. Fire Emblem storylines have really been the biggest sources of inspiration of my fantasy writing. It seems like I rip something out of Fire Emblem with everything I write.

Galdrar in Fire Emblem Path of Radiance worked like this: there were two races of humans Beorc (average joes like you and me) and then Laguz (Beast men, cat men, humans that transform into dragons, wolf men, etc.) which made like my furry friends nerdgasm upon seeing cat-men.

Anyway among the bird tribes, there was a group of bird-men called herons who could not fight, but could sing magical songs called galdrar. The songs could "make a man do twice the work he could than with out it" In fire Emblem, this literally means you can give a single playable unit another turn to move. Fire Emblem is a strategy game, almost like chess in a way, but with knights, archers, swordsmen, princesses etc. I think you guys can see where I got the inspiration for Drugal. =) and I just ripped out Galdrar from there as well. I'm a shameless cheat. =) Drugal don't transform though. They are more akin to evil versions of the Rito Tribe from Legend of Zelda. XD Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

I took a page from George's style of writing in which he writes a post, and then adds in tid-bits for the Rper. Still experimenting with styles right now, and I think you guys will like my solution for the whole "eternal night" problem West was talking about. I could say that the reason everyone is a live is Maaaaaaaaaaaagiiiiiiiic!! Wooooooooooooo!! But that is lazy writing, in my opinion.

So as a result, everyone currently with Vyras has a bit with which to write a post for. Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

Funny that you should mention fire emblem - I ended up writing a bio for Vampyro, but I probably won't post it because it feels like a blatant rip off of a main character from Three Houses.

I don't know why, but I've always loved characters with black and white insanity.

I want to get that game so badly, but right now, with school going on, it's not that wise, since I get distracted so easily. XD Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

Ya'll are talkin' 'bout video games and anime and nerdy things, and here I am, working as a security guard doing...you know...security things, like sitting in a pickup truck doing...sitting, and paperwork, observing a worker camp from 10PM to 10AM that's...empty past few months. Because, you know, someone's gotta guard an empty work camp! Who else can be here to make these buildings feel special and important!?

But don't worry, I studied like crazy to be a security guard! Studied, but also trained by a former RCMP officer! Studied, learned, trained, and talented to...do nothing. It takes a lot of talent, training and skill to do nothing well, you know!

Even as I make this message, I'm doing my security shift very well. Just gotta live my life by killing time. Security is, after all, an oxymoronic career.

Anyways, I will try to post in Vampyro tomorrow night, as I lost all my energy doing an email. Although security is an easy job, I tend to sleep around five hours and wake up, can't fall asleep, I tend to be so tired my stomach hurts and I have headaches. So I'm often awake nineteen hours a day, past four days, but today I woke up and fell asleep again, got six and a half hours. But still, I get more sleep than when I was a laborer, and if I'm gonna be tired, sleepy, and sick, might as well get paid for it!

So, ya, that's my life update. Just wanted to share it ^.^
