Second Chances: the Network

One of the orange barn cats decided I was taking it home apparently. I never expected to have a cat? He's very judgmental though. Kind of amuses me. I've decided his name is Mylo.

Always thought I'd end up with another dog. But here we are googling cat stuff.

Guess who's back? (Back again!)

Everyone always says how weird this is but I don't think you really get that until it happens to you.

Soooo I'm good! Pre-empting everyone asking that. A-ok werewolf over here! Also I totally just lived out the same year of school back home so I guess that makes me the same age? OH WELL I'm calling it!

"こんにちは、緑谷出久です。雄英高校の2年生です。

えっと。英語？マイク先生、ちゃんと英語を学べたかな…"

Hello. My name is Midoriya Izuku Izuku Midoriya. I am 16 and a second year student in UA High School's Hero Course in Musutafu, near Tokyo. I am pleased to meet all of you and was very surprised to learn this was not the result of a Quirk.

Please take care of me.

I have been told you are to be my guardian. I will attempt to be no trouble.

I'm bored.I actually bothered to clean my room, I watched Tim study and obsess over what's due Monday, I found lost socks from the dryer (aprox. 20 lost pairs found), went to the park and touched grass.

Saturday is overrated.

I never had time back home to explore things like museums or other interests outside of STAR Labs. It's...I don't know. Both kind of exciting and a little bit feels like I'm not allowed to? Idk. I feel a little guilty doing so sometimes? Brains are weird.

Have a minute this week to discuss a thing? kind of an important thing.

Это глупо.

I want a refund on this trip.

🥳🎂

I know we have bigger problems and this is a random statement but

It's weird when you hear two people arguing (Jason and Yelena. It's Jason and Yelena) and they switch languages mid-sentence. Multiple times. And it's weirder when you can follow the argument.

Which brings me to my point and I know it's been asked before but I'm asking again:

Other than English, what languages do you speak? I'm only claiming fluency in 12. Yes, I realize that's a brag. But I blame Bruce.

Imagine if you will...

It's the start of the first quarter, you're still finishing up Q4, so of course the day is back-to-back meetings. Smash-cut to the end of it all, you finally get a chance to check your phone for anything non-work related and—would you look at that?

Your High King is gone.

Is it too late to burrito on the couch and wallow? Semi-serious question. I'm almost thirty.

It's cold. and I'm glad suddenly I don't drive since even just walking down to the comic shop today I could barely see an inch ahead and fell on my ass twice.

Christmas was...not as bad as I thought it might turn out. Thanks to those who came to do cookies. I feel less alone here. That helps a lot.

So, that art show I mentioned last month. It's happening this weekend! And I swear I'm not freaking out There's an opening reception Friday night from 6pm to 11pm and you should all come! There will be snacks & drinks (non-alcoholic and some alcoholic) and a whole bunch of really amazing art!

And while Karl (aka, the fog) has been extra heavy lately and is a vibe, I really need these painting to dry before Friday.

Speaking of, my fellow artists - I need your stuff by noon friday (or earlier) so we have time to get it all hung.

I need to get out of this crappy headspace. Thinking about making christmas/Chanukkah/whatever you celebrate- cookies if anyone wants to join?

Still not convinced I'm not in a prison world here but everyone at the office assures me this just happens.

So hey I guess, I'm Hope.

Most things are better here considering how home was gonna go....but there are some things I still kind of miss from it, which is stupid. But here we are. I remember a Christmas tree lighting town thing in Smallville one year that I got to see with the Kents was kind of fun. I didn't even get to live there very long, idk why now I'm remembering things like that.that I'd never get to see again probably anyway but whatever. Feelings are stupid

Wanna go on a date?

I've been thinking about things to do for our community after last month. The brunches are nice, but I keep having that line from RENT in my head, "The opposite of war isn't peace, it's creation." So, I'm thinking we should do a community art show in the building. I know a lot of folks here have creative talents (I'm not going to name names, but I may come find you later)

Bonus: I need to do an art show this semester, and I think it'd be great to host it in our building. Two birds, one stone.

So, if you want to submit something(s) for the art show, let me know. I'm thinking early to mid Decemeber? That's enough time to throw something together, right?

Fuuuuuuck
There isn't enough alcohol in the world

Anyone got any tips and tricks for insomnia?

Busy this weekend?

Bat-Family
The Batmobile is here.

Sometimes good things do happen around here I guess.

Not to be weird, but I came back from class Friday and my computer was here. Like my custom set up from home. With all of our programs.

I took it apart piece by piece to make sure there was no suspicious additions, and I swept it twice for anything that could be pulling data from it, and it's absolutely clean.

I still feel like I should be suspicious.

Another piece of home is gone.

Holidays are coming up but don't really feel that celebratory...But at the very least this place saw fit to gift me my laptop from my lab. Good to have my notes and my media files and well...everything. My life was in there. I did miss my playlists.

[Lydia]
You feel up for a museum day?

[Ray]
You still around?

It just occurred to me that I'm going to have to start job hunting soon. Ugh. I always knew back home that I was going to go into Starfleet that I couldn't even really picture myself doing something else. It's gonna be really weird.

Kind of a random question, but is anyone good at woodwork? Or good with trees in general?
