Day 16 of new cats, Shadow the Ultimate Lifeform and Lily are pretty comfortable with the house and hanging out outside of the bedroom safe spot. They're still very jumpy around people but they're getting better. They want belly rubs so much. And they get serious air time when hunting their toys.

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

From bravewave.net/interviews/t...

Mo: Do you remember the first time you met someone who said they loved your work on Mega Man 2?

Tateishi: You’re the first, in 2013. No one else has.

Mo: Wow. I’m surprised. I don’t even have a follow-up question… how could no one come up and say something.

Tateishi: …

Mo: Now that you know how big Mega Man 2 is outside of Japan, do you look fondly back at the soundtrack?

Tateishi: Yeah, my thoughts have changed since I met you and became more aware of how people felt. But even when I was at Konami, I didn’t even bother telling anyone I did Mega Man 2. So the fact you came all the way to Japan to tell me these things makes me very happy I worked on the game all those years ago.

Day 1 and the cats are settling in very well. The boi needed some time to come out of his shell, but both are getting more comfortable with us. I've never seen cats so excited for belly rubs before. Voids are hard to photograph.

We've chosen our name for the lad: Shadow the Ultimate Lifeform.

We got two new cats! Both voids, about 3 years old, a bonded brother/sister pair. One is super friendly (pics 1/2) and the other is very shy (3/4). It's day zero so they're still feeling out the safety of our room. Names are in the works. They are chonky.

Digging through old photos of our late cats, came across this one from when Jenova knocked over a box of donuts and did not take her sentencing well

When I found out that @dokidreamers.com was going to be at this con after seeing these on their social, I knew I needed to get them but had to wait for the last day since money was pretty tight. The stickers were freebie.
