When you were a kid...

Were you happy or sad when you found out your babysitter was coming? I didn’t have a babysitter. My grandparents took care of me and my siblings and cousins when we were growing up; and if they were both busy I was usually the one expected to care for everyone. Which was okay with me, since I was the most ~motherly~ one in our little group anyway.

Did you have a boyfriend in kindergarten? I studied in an all-girls school from kinder to high school. Outside of school, also no boyfriends. The boys at my neighborhood were super rowdy and hated girls, so I didn’t like hanging out with them.

Did you ever play hopscotch at school? For sure. I was a little mischievous - I would steal a bunch of chalk from the classroom so I can doodle a hopscotch court on school grounds for me and my friends to play on. I definitely wasn’t the most goody-two-shoes kid in the beginning, lol.

Did you refuse to eat your vegetables? Yeah, hated them. We have this local brand of instant noodles that have pieces of carrot in it, and I remember grouping all the tiny carrot bits at the edge of my plate. I didn’t learn to feed myself until I was around 8 or 9 though, so prior to that my elders would just include vegetables in all my meals and I’d have no choice.

What did you usually dress up as on Halloween? Some basic costume like a witch or pirate. My mom wasn’t super into Halloween and would just get us costume packs from the toy store. I wanna be the complete opposite for my kids.

What was your favorite television show? As a much younger kid I was into Hi-5. When I got a bit older I liked Pokemon, SpongeBob, The Fairly OddParents, My Life as a Teenage Robot, etc. Then when I got slightly older I started watching the real-life shows too, so like That’s So Raven, Suite Life, Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, Hannah Montana. Did you have D.E.A.R. time in school? (Drop Everything and Read) Yes, a few times each year. When I was still a bookworm it had been one of my favorite segments in school because I got to see other kids reading, which was my favorite hobby then. But by the time I was in high school and stopped reading, I remember always struggling to find a book to bring because I didn’t read anything anymore D: If I remember correctly, I think Athenna lent me most of the books I brought for DEAR time since at the time she was into John Green and YA in general. Did you ever read the 'Magic Treehouse' series? No. I googled it to see the cover, and I know as a kid it wouldn’t have interested me enough to pull it out of its shelf. How about the 'Bailey School Kids' series? Nope. Kids my age were into the Geronimo Stilton and Mr Men/Little Miss series. Do you remember the first movie you ever saw in theaters? Yes, it was a Stuart Little movie when I was maybe 3 or 4. I’m guessing it’s Stuart Little 2, because Google says it came out in 2002 and I was 4 years old then, so it checks out. Who was your best friend in elementary school? Angela was my best friend in some grades, but you know how kids are...once they vibe with someone else, they’ll hang out with them 24/7. Angela was a way more sociable kid so she got close with everyone, while I remained terrible at making friends. If she wasn’t my best friend at the time, I had no one. Did they continue to be your best friend in middle school? We don’t have middle school but I’ll guess that this is like Grade 6 and 7 for us? Anyway, no. ~Middle school~ was worse for me because this was when cliques started to form and material trends became the basis for being visible, e.g. owning a Blackberry, wearing Nike Roshes, getting side bangs lol, etc. I had none of those, so I was left behind both in terms of visibility and having friends. I only had a best friend again by the time I entered Grade 7, in which time I met Gabie and the ball started rolling from there. Did you ever watch 'The Land Before Time' movies? No, I didn’t. Did you ever watch the show 'Arthur'? I don’t think it aired here, so no. I did read Arthur books though; they were one of my favorites. Did the tooth fairy give you a lot of money? I honestly thought the tooth fairy was real. I never told my parents whenever a tooth would come out because I thought it was none of their business. That said, they just genuinely never knew to put money under my pillow because my dumbass never told them hahaha. I’ll never forget how crestfallen I was when I woke up to no money though. How often did you visit your nearest grandparents? I lived with them until I was 10. I only visited my other set of grandparents whenever my dad would come home from abroad, so I didn’t and haven’t ended up being close to them. Did you ever play with 'Little People' toys? Never heard of them but when I looked it up the toys looked familiar, so we probably did. How about Polly Pockets? Yes. Did you collect anything when you were a kid? Pokemon cards and pogs, heh. I also had my fair share of notebooks. Did you get an allowance? No, my parents didn’t teach me how money worked early on. I was a packed lunch kid until high school, and when I did ask for money I – and I’m not kidding – would only get a ₱20 bill, which was only enough to get me a tiny snack. What was your favorite sport to play? What is it now? Track, but then it shifted to table tennis when I joined the table tennis club initially out of peer pressure. What foods did you not like then that you do like now? Chicken curry, definitely. Were you into American Girl dolls? No. What was your first pet and what did you name it? It was a goldfish but I don’t remember whether I named it Goldie or Fishy, lol. Did you ever read the 'Junie B. Jones' books? No. What did you want to be when you were a kid? All the things I wante to be were astronaut, firefighter, veterinarian, and writer. What was your first word? Your first sentence? (If you remember) My parents didn’t keep track of either...I definitely would with my own kids. Have you moved into a new house since you were a kid? Yes, several times. When I was an infant we briefly lived with my dad’s parents in Manila. My mom couldn’t take the poverty and pollution there so we moved to a city in Rizal, where my mom’s parents + some extended family live in a duplex. At one point we switched houses in that duplex, and the unit that we switched to was where I lived for most of my childhood until we moved to our present house by the time I was 10. Were you friends with your neighbors? As a child, yeah. I was mostly friends with the girls though because like I said, the boys were super rowdy and sexist in that they never let us play basketball with them and stuff. Did you enjoy exploring your backyard? We didn’t have a backyard. Did you bake cookies with your grandparents? Sometimes! I would mix the dough and turn them into balls. :) What was your biggest fear when you were a kid? Flying cockroaches, because we had a lot of them in our old duplex unit. I also had an irrational fear of catching TV ads at night because I found them too loud and too vibrant. Who did you look up to most? My dad because I barely saw him as a kid. When he was lower down the ladder at his job he’d be gone six months and only stay with us for one. It wasn’t until I got to high school and he had a much higher position that he was away for only four months and home for one and a half.   Did you ever play the 'Reader Rabbit' computer games? I don’t think I’ve heard of that. Did you have a swing set in your backyard? No but we had a relative who had a playground at their place, and we’d go over there often. I spent a good amount of my childhood going as high as I can on their swings. How about a sandbox? Same relative had a sandbox too! It’s my favorite part of a playground and even during playtime in school I would usually be found alone in the sandbox. How old were you when you learned how to ride a bike? I’m 22 and still don’t know how... Did you ever spy on your neighbors through the window? Sometimes. Our houses were very close to each other and their open window is right across the part of our house that also has an open window, so sometimes we’ll fool around and peek. Were you a teacher's pet in kindergarten? No, but I gave my teachers a reason to remember me because I was the kid that peed their underwear everyday and had to go home in shorts. I’ve always been shy and even as a kid I was unable to ask permission to go to the washroom. Did you ever build a treehouse or a fort in your yard? No, ours was too small to build anything like that. Did you ever find anything interesting in your yard? No, just different types of bugs and caterpillars. Did you ever have 'themed birthdays'? Kinda? My 7th birthday party was mostly a plain, theme-less birthday party, but so much of the decorations and giveaways were Bratz-themed because I was into Bratz at the time. Did your parents let you drink soda? They would have let me but I personally never liked it. Did you ever watch 'The Powerpuff Girls' or 'Dexter's Laboratory'? I watched Powerpuff Girls but not Dexter’s Laboratory. Did you sleep with a blanket or stuffed animal? For the most part I preferred cuddling with a pillow. Did you ever have a night light? For some points in my childhood, yeah. Ultimately, I preferred lights out though. Did you watch 'Winnie the Pooh'? Nope, just read Winnie the Pooh books. Did you ever have an imaginary friend? What was their name? I named them Katrina but I wasn’t imaginative/creative enough, so when seven minutes passed after I created her and she still wasn’t talking back to me, I gave it up haha. What kinds of games did you play with your friends during Recess? Dodgeball was a favorite. We had a big field just right outside our classroom so we’d all go out, pick our teams, and play for the whole 30 minutes. We’d do it for lunch, too. Fortunately our teachers never barred us from playing, because I guess they knew it counts as exercise for us too. Did you dream of being a princess or did you not really care about that? Not really. I wanted to be an astronaut more haha. The only princess-y things I did were to wear my blanket around my neck like a cape, and to wear a tiara on my 7th birthday party. Did you have a special name for your pacifier? What was it? No. Did you watch 'Blues Clues'? Yesssssss. I grew up with Steve and Joe. It was such a fun show to watch. What kind of car did your parents have? I don’t remember the make anymore but we had a black sedan until I was around five. It was mostly broken-down and had no aircon, but it was my dad’s first car so it was his absolute baby and I never had the heart to complain about the car’s flaws to him. He eventually sold it and we had a blue Mitsubishi Lancer after. Did you ever flush anything down the toilet by mistake? I don’t remember ever doing that, thankfully lol. Were you afraid to sleep by yourself? No, I think I was excited to start doing it. Growing up in a cramped duplex, I shared one bedroom with my entire family until I was around 9; so when we moved to our own home, I was the first one to call dibs on a bedroom. What was your favorite subject in elementary school? Language, which is a class where we were just taught basic English grammar. I loved reading as a kid and got fluent in English early on, so I was always a top student in that subject. How often did you go to the park? We don’t have parks. What was your favorite kind of cake as a kid? Chocolate cake from Red Ribbon. Did you ever want to grow up? I never actively ‘wanted’ it because I was already kinda forced to grow up early, what with all the issues happening at home and me having to shield my siblings and cousins from whatever screaming match was happening inside.

every shakespeare reference in wilba’s speech file (that i could find) by play

this.... this is what i choose to spend my time on

the majority are, fittingly, Hamlet quotes, but she quotes something like 20 different plays, and also the one sonnet that everyone knows, you know the one

i probably didn’t get them all? there are SO many. 

also i assigned plays from memory on a lot of them because i can’t be sitting around googling every single quote so if some are misattributed that’s why but i feel pretty confident in my shakespeare trivia

i didn’t list repeats unless they were significantly different or funny so please please don’t swan into my inbox telling me i missed one of the 9,000 “wherefore art thou”s

if you don’t know what the original quote is then i’d be happy to give context. my original intention was to do that but that was 200+ lines of misquoted shakespeare ago

yeah..

yeah, i spent like two hours on this

Session 26!

While Odril spent the night with his family, Aim and the satyrs of the party went to camp outside of town, Pog and Gumm some distance from Aim and sleeping in the snow together now that Gumm could also withstand the cold, and Cass and Shiver went to sleep at the inn, The Lydian Arms. Morning comes around and Aim starts her day with hunting. She doesn’t do well, mistaking a rock for a seal. With Aggie’s help though, they find a rabbit and it’s warren and manage to snatch up 3 rabbits. Pog and Gumm have a snowball fight with eachother meanwhile, eventually stopping when Pog decides to look over that book he got ages ago from the library in Easthaven, discovering that the illusory script wore off revealing a *huge* number of spells. This must have been Dzaan’s spellbook, the wizard that was put to death. He goes over it with Gumm and they go absolutely BANANAS over it. Pog declares it his new baby.

Cass wakes up to Shiver missing again, a common thing that she’s become used to. She goes to gather the party, finding Aim and the satyrs first, only gathering those two as Aim leaves into town to find a job to earn some money. She finds a board, mostly full of lost pets and rewards being offered for them, going with a lost dire wolf named Corndog. She eventually finds him digging outside the city nearby into the wall of a cliff a few feet taller than she is and casts Speak with Animals, discovering he didn’t realize he was missing long enough to cause worry to his owner. Aim asks why she’s digging at it and he informs her he thought it smelled strange, and so she, along with Aggie, decide to help him dig, eventually revealing a hole that is very clearly man-made. Having a bad experience with this, she covers it back up then reunited Corndog the dire wolf with his owner, Strongbear, a young Goliath man, who rewards her very generously.

Meanwhile, Odril spent time with his wife and daughter, huddled up by the fire, eating food, and eventually took Piper out fishing to teach her how to catch and clean them out better, and she learned quite quickly!

Everyone finally meets outside the tavern and immediately start a snowball fight with eachother. Aim starts to head inside, but then there is barking. A dog with a broken harness trailing behind it comes up, very friendly, but also barking and whimpering, clearly trying to get the party’s attention as it jumps up on each one of them. Aim casts Speak with Animals once more, the dog speaking out “Help! Garrett needs help! Find home! Tell Keegan!”

The party follows the dog to a home, the door opening and letting it inside. He asks them what happened and Aim informs him about what the dog told him. They discover this man is Keegan, and the dog, named Boy, was his husband Garrett’s dog. He invites them inside and sits them down for warm cider. He seems very worried.

Hiveswap ‘17-09-20: x2 Combo combo!

So, once more, with feeling.

Combining our inventory with stuff in the house.

---

I wonder what it's going to be like going down, how much more items there are around the house and how many of them we can bring upstairs?

The batteries to be found downstairs (presumably in the clock radio) would probably spur much of the same reactions as the AA type cells for the walkie talkie.

POGS + WINDOWS: I wonder if Jude's pigeons would try to eat his pogs if they saw them.

TREATS + WINDOWS : N'aww. So Tess often (mostly?) is outside when Joey's in her room. I wonder if she comes in all that often?

TREATS + BEANBAG : beanbags are "but(t) seats", oh the pun. :D

POINTES + BEANBAG : "you have a lot of interests, actually" Join the Homestuck Club, Joey. :P

POGS + MANTHRO CHAP : Crack theory: Doc Scratch does not percieve pogs, they're one of his dark pockets. :P

TREATS + MANTHRO CHAP : "Suppurate definition, to produce or discharge pus, as a wound; maturate." Eeeesh. Tamagotchi got zip on these guys re: specific needs.

Okay, it turns out you CAN combine things with the ceiling, but only in the other part of the room, where the door is!

POINTES + MURAL : Awwww. In a sad twist to Dad and his children, Joey also practices dancing to get closer to her mom.

POGS + ANIMAL POSTERS : First "Gentlemanthro", now mom-imals.

It just occurred to me that on the giraffe poster you can clearly make out the reflection of the light that falls through the large windows of Joey's room. It's reflected of the floor onto the poster. Such details! ... Meanwhile, the tiger poster catches the reflected light that fell first through the window above Joey's bed!

TREATS + ANIMAL POSTERS : Another animation! N'aww, feeding time at the Poster Zoo! These animations keep being fun surprises.

Hey, is that a little stress ball on Joey's desk, to the left of her keyboard?

POGS + PC : Heh, yeah, eBay didn't exist yet back then, in the 90s. ... Wait, in fact, it wasn't that long apparently! Founded in 1995, September 3rd.

POINTES + PC : Heheheheh, we saw the tap dance shoes give a pun like this too. It's not just enough to make every combination, sometimes you have to go back and read related combinations again for the best experience!

POGS + CLOTHES CLOSET : Joey: Engage Sarcasm Mode.

TREATS + CLOTHES CLOSET : Okay that is adorable. Joey loves, loves, LOVES her dog.

POINTES + CLOTHES CLOSET : Kind of 4th wall bending here. Yeah it's weird the pointes were high up there, out of her reach, if she actually uses them daily. But that's the puzzle universe for you.

TREATS + MEDKIT : Oh, yeah, I figured she would have treats in there too, but it's actually sensible she doesn't, with all the medical equipment. Also, the medkit seems to be quite useful in fact, I thought it would be full of duds to be honest.

POGS + CLARISSA : ... Ah, Ferguson is a Clarissa character. That makes sense. Would be a funny name for Joey to give a random lusus she befriends though. A rabbit lusus, perchance?

TREATS + CLARISSA : ... Pet baby alligator? What even was that show.

POINTES + CLARISSA : ... I just now looked up what the synopsis was to Alex Mack, the follow-up to Clarissa, and THAT one I used to watch, I now remember it!

POGS + STUFFED ANIMALS : Aaawwwww, Joey. She doubts herself so much. She just wants to know what a 'normal' kid is like, but... that's what she already is, she just doesn't know! It's going to be good for her to see on Alternia, even through a twisted, alien mirror, that she's not weird at all. Also, note how Joey also objects to the sitter's heartfelt compliments, thinking they're not sincere, like Rose. And so we learn that Roxy babysat them from, well, diapers onwards. So she could be anywhere between 16 and 26 at this point! Since this means she's probably been babysitting ever since Ms Claire's... departure.

TREATS + STUFF ANIMALS: Protect them! Protect them at all cost!

TREATS + BED : I... think that maybe this response should have gone with, like, a kitchen cabinet instead. To 'improve' on the treats with herbs or something.

POGS + PUPPY SURPRISE : OOoooooooOOOooooh! Didn't think that would happen! Joey just put the Scully pog in here. I wonder if we can actually see it though, when looking at the stuffed animal closer?

...

It is! :D AWESOME! Didn't think this would actually be possible with these combinations, but there you go!

TREATS + PUPPY SURPRISE : Ah come on, that also works! She also put a treat inside!

... Yup, there it is. Blocking the Scully pog from view, so I'm glad we first used the pogs! I was wondering, before, why the pog was put behind the diary key, but it was to keep room for a treat!

Also, this gives us a nice size reference for the treats - they're ginormous!

Oh, so that's why Tess is such a big dog. :P

I like the detail of the treat crumbling. I mean, soft as it is, it's not the best hiding place. To think that, perhaps, in Hauntswitch, Dammek could find these here. Or, at the very least, on Alternia, Joey could contemplate that at least the prized Scully pog is safe.

TREATS + BOOKS : You won't find Joey reading any officially esteemed books, since she's afraid/knowledgeable that a lot of them just feature Young Adult drama like beloved pets dying.

POINTES + BALLERINA DOLL: Heheehehh, "shadow ballet". And a "it's fun to pretend" reference! And indeed, it IS fun to pretend ballerinas engaging in dance offs not unlike those found in tv dance shows. In fact, there's one in the Ballerina animated movie, in case you're looking!

TREATS + WIZARD : ... That could be an excerpt from Complacency of the Learned for all I'm concerned.

POINTES + WIZARD : Twerlin' Merlin makes a return(in')! That could actually be a decent show!

<image 1>

POGS + OVEN : Okay, unlike the oven, that sting burns.

POINTES + OVEN : Suffice to say, there is no hard line between boy stuff and girl stuff. Nor should these stuffs even be seen as separate.

POINTES + CALENDAR : Ooooh, so she has ballet practice on Monday and it kind of serves to kill her Monday blues. That's... hard but smart. Makes me wonder though, how UNnatural Hauntswitch will turn out to be - whether all her feelings regarding school and such might at least have a supernatural explanation beyond... well, high school.

This marks the end of the possible combinations in Joey's room! (So far.)

To go about it in an orderly manner, we're going to the attic stairway next.

TREATS + JUNK : Squirrels are like reverse pumpkins, they spontaneously appear around treats left unattended in cluttered areas. Biology 101.

TREATS + CATERPILLAR : Okay, now I'm SURE it must be a pre-existing toy. Magnetic apples that stick to its mouth? No immediate results on Google though.

POINTES + CATERPILLAR : All these times she mentions it's so dangerous to dance near or on the stairway, and what does she do? Dances on the stairway! For shame, Joey. :P

TREATS + SLINKY : Ironically, consider Slinky the Dog from Toy Story.

TREATS + ATTIC DOOR : Surprise attic bat pets. Surprise attic bat pets out of nowhere. (No not really.)

POINTES + ATTIC DOOR : Blaperile pointed out that, this time, her ballet dance was different, just a pirouette! Makes me wonder what other tap dance she might have in store?

Back to the hallway now.

POGS + PRINGLES : Pringles boxes filled with pogs? Joey unthinks that thought immediately and abjures the hell out of it.

POGS + SUFFERER DOLL : A dud again?

... Oh freaking hell no. I just noticed that there's an actual black-and-blue dart lying near the doll. That's got to be the experimental "foamless dart" (aka arrow) Jude made - and it looks just the Executioner's arrow! My god.

POINTES + WATERGUN:

<image 2>

... PFffffffff.

---

Well, that's as good a note as any to stop tonight's round on! Next time, the other side of the hallway.

I’m still surprised those two bolded combinations actually did what they did!

Backstory

Lady Pudding Cake from the one and only Cake family of the Land of Sweets. A noble name that faithfully served the ruling family of the land. Yet now that name seems to matter little to the people anymore, the noble family lost their wealth and standing. As a teenager, Pudding resorted to stealing in hopes that she could provide for her family. However, once discovered her family claimed one more embarrassment like that would risk her being disowned.

She was sent off to a well known guild in hopes a craft master or scholar would be willing to train her as a pupil. The guild master himself took her in as his apprentice. The former noble didn’t expect him to be as harsh on her as he was nor to actually make her do manual work. Yet he did, training her in the craft of weaponry and even how to use them. Stating that if a trusty smith to warriors is one that know what it takes to be both.

Over the years, she formed a strong admiration to the man thinking of him as her own father in a sense. She spent all of her years giving her earnings to her family. However, despite her efforts her parents disappeared completely once she became a young woman; sending her younger sister, Carrot with a letter explaining their leave. After that day, she loathed her parents. She did all of this for their sake yet they have the nerve to simply take her earnings and leave, abandoning Carrot at that as well.

As time went by her master eventually gave her privilege of running his shop and by extension oversee the guild when his age begun to get to him. Pudding accepted the offer and now in recent months became the head for the guild, taking in her younger sister as her own apprentice. This will now be her legacy to uphold.

Recently, Prince Chocolate gave her another opportunity to aid him in the search of his sister, Princess Strawberry whom was missing for years. She heard of the news as a teenager, but figured she not a “true” noblewoman anymore and her family had no reason to be concern at the time. Still, he seemed so desperate to find her and ask for her help. She remember the memories of playing with him and his siblings as a child, but now she had her guild to see after and all of the people that need her to stay there.

She stated if he could find a way to aid her in restoring the Cake Family’s status and agreed that she did not have to constantly be at his side, she’ll be his retainer. Just like she would have if she never lost her previous status as a noblewoman.
