#DreamDiary (yes, two today, this one is now canon)
Susan (my daughter) found a way to activate my curse on command (the one that turns me into a pokémon) claiming I needed to spend more time with them (which, to be fair, isn't wrong). I chose to talk to Evan, and discovered why he's always so quiet

It turns out most of my other pokémon have a private nickname for me, and he doesn't. I told him he should come up with one, one that's all his own. He came up with "Master". Missingno walked in just then and said "Hello, Master" …and Even just started crying.

I now need to calm both of them down

"Deciding" to make this canon is having...consequences.

"Deciding" in quotes because, with Evan and Rei being alters now, I don't really get that much say in what's canon and what isn't

(finding a "practice typing using just the keys in the home row" exercise was surprsingly hard)

Have to rethink the next "chapter" in this story because Rei said no.

In case anyone's wondering, the plan was "let's leave Evan alone with the computer a few days, see what he does"
...Yeah, no, bad idea.

Ended up deciding to make that conversation the next chapter (well, adapted)

This is still going on. This is a real conversation Evan had with a reddit user. Take a moment to appreciate that fact.

So of course, I had to ask Susan if she wanted to join the "game" and ...she didn't get it at first. I also had to spend a long time figuring out how to spell the japanese honorifics I keep hearing Rei use.

And find how to get around the sub's rules.

In the meantime, I wanted to show Evan's progress, so I used:

  • "Blossoming flowers eventually scatter" (part of a japanese pangram)
  • "baka" (japanese for "stupid" -- also an expletive),
  • "otou-san" (dad),
  • and, of course, "otoko-chan" (kid)

So today I'm trying something: let's see if every time I can take a break from work, I can post an update

First update: To saffron! Hopefully the implication that we couldn't all sit together is clear

The show must go on. Made the depression episode part of the story and I actually held a stylus again. The image is obviously an edit of the growth drive.
