    I also had a tiny mental breakdown a minute ago, because I wasn't sure if I should return the question to be polite, but I didn't want you to think I was just asking it back to be polite in the first place, even though I would actually be doing it to be polite, but I don't mean that to be offensive it's just... uh... er...

    My brain hurts.

    Also... how you doin?

    Me? Uhhhhh (Oh god how do i socialise?!) I'm okay? Not great but not bad either. Got a new cat after the old one passed away ;(
    And i think thats it?
    Your snippet thread is amazing. Almost always I am immediately hooked with the storyline and want to read what happens next. That's not an easy thing to do once, nevermind for so many different plots. And that goes triple for the gamer stories since those can get easily overdone.
    Gerbil I played a video game today that I feel might cheer you up since I know it put me in a whole 'these two are cute, I ship it' mood. It's called Haven and it just bumped up to the top of my list of favorites. The setting might give you idea for future snippets.
    Dear Gerbil.

    It is never my habit to reply to your threads, and you will never know how thankful I am for you to continue King Kong snips. That storyline really comforted me.

    Two of the kittens that I have been taking care of for 6 weeks has been adopted and, as a "student" animal caretaker, I felt that I lost a piece of me when I never got to even say goodbye to the little ones.

    I have been down for 2 weeks straight, knowing I could never own one or even get to see them again. The sound of Kong Min's speech pattern in my head really amused me, I just read the five-chapter snip for I don't know how many times.

    I am never expecting it to have an update, really. I only comment when I appreciate something.

    Thank you for listening to that one tiny comment in your huge thread.
    Hiya again! This is your weekly Dream notice. I hope you're doing well. I had a really productive week and managed to finish the 1st draft of the story I was writing for you ~8000 words by the way. Now I just need to edit the thing. Its really clunky because I wrote it in multiple sittings. And Uni has started up again.

    Hopefully I'll be ready to post next week or the one after at the latest. I hope you like it. I'm sorry it took me so long.

    I'm looking forward to it, and there's no reason to be sorry or anything, the entire exercise is for fun in the first place. ^^
    Hiya Gerbil! I noticed you're a bit more active now, feeling better? Hope you're at least better than me I managed to catch a cold right as my exams are finished up too. Sad but on the bright side I have an entire week of no university so yay!

    I'm feeling happier, trying to get back in the swing of things here, and definitely real happy at the moment - but that might be because I just ate a whole bag of gummi worms and found an awesome fic to read earlier.

    BNHA / Celestial Forge done right as far as I'm concerned, which is a beautiful thing. If you like Hero Academia and tech-heavy stories, this one is definitely for you. It's lighthearted, doesn't seem to take itself too seriously, and literally only has one thing I don't like. If you knew how hard I am to please, especially with BNHA, you would be impressed by that.
    Hey there Gerbil. I thought I'd check in on you. I hope you're feeling better after that mess yesterday. Mid term 'week' is almost done I just have one more exam tomorrow. After that I'm home free and back to writing my story. I can't wait for you to read it. I hope you'll like it.
    You know, I gotta say, if I had to pick and choose...I'd say you are my favorite writer. With ShaperV and Silver W. King coming in a 2nd and 3rd...and they sometimes switch positions.

    Just thought I'd try to cheer you up with that little tidbit.

    :)
    Here I am again another week gone. And unfortunately this week is worse than the last 2. I have an exam tomorrow at uni so studying my butt off. And I have a full fever today. I didn't get any writing done this week. Sorry.
    Another Week another 800 words of your present would've done more but life took a shitter on me the last two days. I hope your week was better than mine.

    Things have pretty much leveled out for me, so now I just need to slowly recover from being sick twice over and everything I missed because of that. Hope things start looking up for you too.
    Hey, how are you Gerbil? Haven't heard from you despite you saying you're getting better a few days ago. Hope you're alright. Still working away at the "Gerbil, Isekai Princess" snippet I'm writing. With my week finally over, I managed get another 1000 words typed out. 4100 and counting.

    Thought you were just making an OC with a bio or something, lol. Hope you're having fun with it. I've been struggling to catch up on things that have piled up while I was sick. So worn out that I'm just not in the mood to do much of anything other than go to sleep by the time my day is over.
    Dreameater2579
    I know how you feel. And yeah I figured a "letter from ROB"
    would be more interesting than a massive list. Although I'm having to cram 3 or 4 chapters of character intros, exposition and worldbuilding into one so yeah.
    I don't know what's wrong with my group's artist because somehow, some way, he manage to hide a giant vagina in the middle of his (illegal) spray paint. We never cheesed off the streets as fast as that.

    We're expecting for the news to take notice, yet there's not a rumor of his "art" anywhere.
    Knock knock, figured I'd say hi. Unfortunately I seem to have caught something, between my health and work I've been feeling terrible and haven't really had the strength to do anything but collapse come evening. I just thought I'd share. Misery loves company I guess.

    Having to catch up on work after being sick is almost as bad as being sick in the first place. ><
    Hiya Gerbill. Feeling better? I hope you are. Unfortunately for me I seem to have caught something. I'm currently typing while nursing a headache and desperately trying to work. Most people hate Mondays, I hate Tuesdays because guess when my work week starts. Also because Wimpy from Popeye.

    I'm finally feeling better today, should be good by tomorrow or the day after. I love the feeling of recovering after being really sick, because I feel like I don't appreciate being healthy enough until I've just suffered through hell. o_o
    Hey Gerbil, how're you feeling? I hope today was a little better than yesterday. Remember how I figured I'd have your gift ready in 2 days? Its now day 4 and I'm still not done. I feel like used car salesman. At least I had a productive day today went from 700 something words to about 3100 words.
    Hey Gerbil, I was looking up random translated manga, and found one I thought was cute and you might get a laugh out of. Think Bueaty and the Beast, except Beauty is a reincarnated Monarch who conquered the various countries hundreds of years ago, and she's forced to marry a guy who turns into a wolf. Said wolf realizes he can't push her around, so turns into her loyal dog.

    Hi Gerbil, well this is awkward. I wanted to have your gift written out by today but well I'm only halfway there at best. I'm sorry. I had the build done yesterday. I wanted to write up a narrative, something you could use for a prologue. But life happened and I barely finished 700 words of it. I'm sorry. I hope you get well soon. Best wishes.
    Knock knock I thought I'd check on you after you said you were sick yesterday. Is it Covid? I hope and pray you get better soon. Also I'm halfway done with the character I'm making for you. It should be done by tomorrow, so look forward to that.

    Definitely not covid, thank god. Just really sick, but I should be fine in a few days. Hate being sick, I can't enjoy reading or playing games, just wanna sip on warm tea, snack on crackers, and curl up in bed.
    You doing good Gerbil? I had a bad feeling today, I hope you're ok. The last couple of days I've been thinking of you a lot. You're one of my top 5 authors, right up there with StreamingViking and Cambrian I decided to make you a present. An isekai character that I'm making using 4 different princess cyoa. I hope you like it. May you find your "Happily ever after" and God bless. Amen.
    You feeling alright? Staying hydrated?

    Made me laugh. ><

    I'm alright. Finally got around to playing Diablo III after I downloaded it like... five years ago. Wasn't enjoying it until I got my hands on a legendary that directly augmented the power of one of my skills, because it didn't feel like Diablo before that, but now I'm on the nostalgia train. It's nice.
    Hey, how you doing? Been catching up on your Gurgles thread, since I wasn't active on the forum for over a month. The isekai brainstorming session you had in December was hilarious btw, and even gave me some Ideas.
    I loved your Grade A Meat story in your Gurgles snippet thread. So much so I'm going to make a story of my own using similar ideas. I hope you don't mind, it's just the idea has been sitting in my mind for months since I read it.
