Hello everyone, I have a great announcement for you all!

Im now also on Bluesky! Oswin doesn't know about this until he sees me following him there now as well. I will just be posting my random musings here and there.

[mrthenarrator]

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID /SILLY

WHY DIDNT YOU TELL US ABOUT IT SOONER?!?!?!? /LH

Now, my good friend, it wouldn't be a surprise then. Would it?

The element of surprise is the spice of life, Oswin! It's also said that variety is the spice of life, but that's more like the pepper, and I for one, think that surprise is the salt. And who doesn't like salty fries and whatever those small crunchy orange crisps are?

[mrthenarrator]

YOU /AFF

Oh dear... I just got out of bed! What did I do this time? 😏😅

[mrthenarrator]

In my defense: Oswin, Your Tumblr Profile Picture is literally me dressed as Sasaki.

@mrthenarrator didnt want to match pfps with me on tumblr so we settled on discord pfps bc the ASASATBOTS brainrot is there and thus

[mrthenarrator]

Salutations! Its been a while since we last talked. I havent really said anything on my own blog in a while! I need to get back on that-

Anyways how has your summer been? Its actually been rather cold over here in this disaster. Lin has been helping me clean it up but its been a little more than impossible to uh… lift buildings.

It turns out Lin is one of those weird shadow creatures and that as long as Sarah isn't here she isn't in pain. And she speaks Spanish! I dont ever recall a cat speaking Spanish but she's still adorable anyways. She keeps saying “vete a la mierda” which I dont know what means but im sure its something very sweet.

I have so many things to tell you now that one you're back, and two im back.

Thank you for listening - reading? Whatever

-Natalie ☻

Hello again Natalie!

Apologies for my late reply! I hope everything is going well for you.

Oh dear.... I hope things haven't been too cold for you there!

How interesting! However, I don't think that phrase in Spanish-

...nevermind. Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong word... 😅

In regards to my summer however, It was hectic as you could expect given how late this response is.

It's still hectic today as well. With Oswin finally letting me stay home as he goes to class, I've been resorting to texting him from home now. But we're doing alright. And I have Halloween to look forward to! (I still need to decide my costume, but i'll figure that out later.)

Regardless! I still deeply apologize for my lack of response, Natalie. I do hope you're doing alright. And if you still wish to tell me of the many things you wanted to share all those days ago, ill be here. Slash Nonforceful, of course! 😊

Hello, Narry !!

I’m hoping you’ve been well- It’s been a bit since my last ask, so I decided to drop by again !

I really haven’t been up to much, aside from messing around and causing harmless trouble, as per usual-

anyways ! the other day, my partner and I stumbled across a fern-like plant while playing a video game together and that got me wondering-

what kind of plants and/or flowers do you like, if any ? :00

Hello again, Stanley!

I do apologize for how late this response has been. It's been... four months or so since you sent this in? I deeply apologize for such a late reply.

That being said however, It's great to hear you've been doing alright! Even with the harmless trouble you've mentioned. 😊

Hmmm... to answer your question, I do appreciate a good fern....

I suppose I like Spider Ivy! They don't look like a spider thankfully, however, I used to help tend to one in Oswin's room that he let me name as Jim. That alongside a Philodendron that Oswin named as Virgil. (Not after me sadly, nor the Portal Stories: Mel character that I'm named after. But the one from that Thomas Sanders series or so ive been told.)

However in terms of flowers, I like tulips and sunflowers. I think the colours are quite beautiful, and with sunflowers, I love when some grow to be taller than I am! Last year during summer, we grew some in the backyard and it was always so pretty to see through the window. It's also great to work in! I read a good number of books there back when the flowers were in full bloom.

I'm usually the one tending to the garden in our house, so there are other plants I do enjoy, however this summer with the road trip and other more pressing matters, I haven't been able to garden recently.

I have been trying to grow vegetables however! I grew a few onions during August, and I have a small tomato plant that we had to bring inside due to hail.

Lynne usually helps me the most when I'm gardening, which I always appreciate. While Stanley only ever agrees to water the plants solely to occasionally spray me with water from the hose. (I get him back for this all the time. I usually use the mist setting, whereas Stanley likes to use the shower setting.)

Thank you for the question, Stanley! 😊

[mrthenarrator]

Hello again everyone! I may have forgotten that this blog even existed. 😅

There are a plethora of reasons that have dragged my attention away from this account that happened over the past few weeks that made me forget to even open up this account, but alas, such is the way with real life I'm afraid. 😔

Luckily, Stanley reminded me of this accounts existence! So, you have him to thank for my return.

I shall do my best to get to the poor forgotten asks sent into my inbox that has been collecting dust, however! With Oswin now busy with his studies, I figure I should grace you all with my presence once more. 🥰

In the meantime however, let me show you something Oswin set up for me that I found interesting!

Oswin's been getting into this video game called "UltraKill" as of late. He showed me the first few levels of the game, and as thrilling and heart-racing as it was, I wasn't hooked yet in terms of gameplay.

That was, until he showed me the endless fighting mode.

He took the assets from the Parable into this game, and told me to just let my frustrations out.

Suffice to say, I love this this mode dearly. Oddly enough, I actually feel calmer after going through a few waves of enemies! Simply letting the music and violence sway me as I hop and run around and kill was quite fun! Though I may not know how to use the other weapons well as much as the first weapon given to the player, I still found it enjoyable. 😊

Aside from this however, I do have other things to share with you about! But I shall save them for later. I can't exactly share everything I have to offer all at once! There's got to be some suspense here and there!

A few minutes would pass before the door leading to Mack's office began to glow. The doorframe and handle morphing into a white mass of white light before dimming to reveal a different looking door than the previous. Virgil steps out of the door, tattered and disheveled. His hair unkempt and pointing in different directions as his travel shirt was now torn to shreds, the tears looking like that of a large animal's claws. He stares at Mack for a moment, a shocked expression on his face similar to that of a certain soldier before he snaps out of his daze before holding up his hands. In his hands was Addie, who was perfectly fine and untouched. His eyes finding the familiar sight of Mack's face and meowing excitedly. "Here's Addie, perfectly fine." Virgil wheezes, before walking up to Mack's desk and placing the kitten down in front of him softly.

“Meow”

...Addie?!

My god! How did you get over here?! Does your Narrator know about this? I can't imagine how worried sick he might be....

It's good to see you however! You're always a delight to have over, Addie. 💛

I suppose I have to give Mack a call then... I hope he's not terribly worried about your disappearance...

Hello (again)!

So, uhm here are a few questions that my tired brain came up with a few seconds ago. Now they could have already been answered, but I don't think so, so, uh here we go:

1. I assume that how you look like is an adapted (?) form, so like just a way to make yourself more human, I suppose. Are you satisfied with your design or would you change anything if you could?

2. Are you (maybe, perchance) open to hugs if I don't feel so good right now?

I am sorry to ask you again, I hope I didn't bother you haha. Originally I had a different question for the second question, but I forgot. :(

Anyways thank you for answering my last question, that's very courteous (/nice?) of you.

Hello again, Ember!

For your first question: Yes, I am quite satisfied with my current design at this moment.

Originally, I didn't have a form. It wasn't until Oswin offered to design me one that I began to have a physical body of sorts. He would provide me with the drawing, and I would take it into the Parable to recreate into a functioning model that I could use in-game.

It's a collaborative effort, especially when it comes to the design itself, hence why there's at least three iterations of my model. It's taken months of trial and error to find both a design and outfit that we feel fitting. However, the current one that I am using at this moment is one that both Oswin and I are happy with. 😊

As for your second question: Of course. I am always willing to give out my signature Narry Hugs™*

I hope that whatever you may be going through at this particular moment will become easier to manage, Ember, And that things will get better.

And don't worry, you aren't bothering me in the slightest! I enjoy getting questions and chatting with everyone here. If you remember that question later, then you are always free to come back and ask me again. There's no quota or limit to the amount of questions you can ask, I am here to "yap" as Oswin says I do.

Thank you for your questions, Ember! 😊

(*The trademark is still the works, however it's not official yet, so no one go running around telling any officers about it just yet, okay?)

[mrthenarrator]

*Falls through the ceiling*

Heloooooo The Narrator! :D

I have a question for ya! (probably a random one lmao)

Do you prefer cup of tea or coffee while reading a book? 👁👁

...How come so many people fall through the ceiling? Is there some sort of door up there? A porthole? Where are you all coming from?!

Ahem, anyway... I prefer coffee. I do enjoy a good earl grey, however I tend to smother it with creamer and sugar. Otherwise coffee is my go-to. Especially since Stanley and Oswin are primarily coffee drinkers.

Thank you for your question!

[mrthenarrator]

(ooc: DONT MIND ME I REBLOGGED TO THE WRONG BLOG FUCK)

"Oh thank god." Virgil sighed. "That's a relief. I'll be there in just a moment." The call continued for a few more seconds, primarily consisting of silence and the sound of fabric ruffling before the cacophony of Virgil yelling pierced through the dead air mixed with a loud bear roar before the call finally ended.

“Meow”

...Addie?!

My god! How did you get over here?! Does your Narrator know about this? I can't imagine how worried sick he might be....

It's good to see you however! You're always a delight to have over, Addie. 💛

I suppose I have to give Mack a call then... I hope he's not terribly worried about your disappearance...

[mrthenarrator]

"More or less..." Virgil sighs, "I'm ehm... Currently maintaining an event that has me in the real world this present moment. But I can pop back into my Parable and send Addie back to yours if you so wish. Is that alright with you?" "Also... do these paw prints come off naturally?" He adds in a tired exasperated voice, as the meowing on the other end grew demanding and more audible on the phone.

“Meow”

...Addie?!

My god! How did you get over here?! Does your Narrator know about this? I can't imagine how worried sick he might be....

It's good to see you however! You're always a delight to have over, Addie. 💛

[mrthenarrator]

"Hello, Mack is it?" Virgil replies, relieved that he picked up. "Sorry to interrupt you at this hour but uhm-" Suddenly, a small meow can be heard on the other end of the phone. Followed by the noise of a small paw smacking what sounds like to be Virgil's face, judging by his not-so-quiet chastising to stop it. "Did you happen to lose track of your Adventure line in the past few hours or so?"

“Meow”

...Addie?!

My god! How did you get over here?! Does your Narrator know about this? I can't imagine how worried sick he might be....

[mrthenarrator]

Look here everyone! Two hundred and fifty posts! I don't know whether to celebrate or be disappointed that I've made this many posts already.

Whatever. A milestone is a milestone! Cheers.
