Oh hi.

The last time I tried to update, my Internet went out for the weekend. With the other crud I was trying to deal with at the time, I got frustrated to where I just went on an unprecedented hiatus after that. I also got to realizing around the Frank part that I need to play Earthbound all the way through again just so it’s a bit fresher in my mind. That way any important observations will be more reinforced. The only problem is finding time to do it. It’ll be nice, though. Playing Earthbound leisurely one more time. Not that I don’t enjoy the project, but pausing to screen cap every little thing can get a little… weary, and I don’t like thinking of one of my favorite games of all time as being a chore.

But no, I’m not abandoning it or anything. Of course, it’s still early on in the thing, so it’s not like I’m knee-deep in some sacred commitment, but I definitely want to continue. I’m thinking I’ll keep having updates before I finish the game so it doesn’t become dead in the water or anything, but it won’t be quite as frequent until I get there.

Guess what you’re about to do?

If the answer was anything except “kick this guy’s ass,” then you don’t deserve to be handpicked by a time-traveling bumblebee.

Hey know where I can find a game called Earthbound?

Oh hey, they were actually pretty nice this time. Only one attacked you.

That being said, you’re still no closer to donning such sleek new-age gangster pajamas yourself. You should probably stick to having normal dreams like preventing ultimate oblivion instead.

Paradox.

Well shit. You wonder if any of these things has this so-called “Earthbound” on it.

It only matters that they take themselves seriously.

The arcade stops being full of sharks and starts being full of Sharks instead. It’s time to assess the situation. Naturally, the first thing that comes to mind is to talk to the people who have only so far attacked you.

And—oh, that last one was vaguely peaceful. Who’d have thought?

Foes of FancyCheck out this dope darkside grind yo. You engage the Skate Punk. HP: 31PP: 0Offense: 7Defense: 8Speed: 5 This is slightly more practical than attacking people on pogo sticks. You’d best hurry up and pop-shuv his face back to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 before he hardflips something sicknasty up in your grill. Yeah. Slightly.

There was virtually no chance of that not happening.

Ness, what did your mom tell you about talking to strangers?

Actually, don’t answer that.
