Live laugh Love Fengshe, excited to know more about him in the upcoming chapters..<3
FENGSHE IS SO WONDERFUL AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR Y'ALL TO ACTUALLY MEET HIM IN THE FIC
Edits are coming slowly but surely, hilariously enough, Chapter 21's edits are taking longer than expected because so much is needing to be changed X"D
BUT I'm hoping that the edits can be done by the end of next month or so, AND I can reveal a very special surprise to you all on a secondary project I'm working on ;)

Decided to go around Jamaa and do a little bit of pack hopping to see what everyone had to say about the upcoming Night of the Phantoms... will Greely finally make an in-game appearance, like Peck and Graham? ?? please it's been like so long and we only have 2 alphas with an actual model in this game
...I wonder what this "new approach" is?
Because well... first event, rifts appeared in specific locations around Jamaa, and we had to throw paintseeds into them to destroy them. Second event, the phantoms invaded Jamaa via the phantom portals, and we had to deal with them using the painseed packs again.
... I accidentally slept through the Christmas thing. Oh right, there was also something with the "Corrupted Mira" event? They somehow harnessed the power of the feather that Peck hid inside the statue?? I forgot what exactly happened there dgdhhdhshdhs
And of course, last year we finally saw what was under Mt. Shiveer's ice patch:
A COLOSSAL PHANTOM!
(well, just the eye. still a very cool minigame regardless! also juno statue ehehehehheheh)
So, going by the dialogue, kind of seems like we might be... taking an offensive against the Phantoms this year? Like not just defending Jamaa, but straight up retaliating and fighting the phantoms ourselves? (Oh right, that tidbit about Mesoterra's second attack simply being a distraction... but for what??? grrr I want to know NOW,!! I can't wait!!!!!!!!)
... I dunno. I'm just guessing that because Peck keeps bringing up that Greely is "up to something dangerous". And attacking the phantoms on their own turf sounds dangerous to me!* But it could just be something else entirely... who knows?
(*Yes, we have the phantom portals, but I kinda consider that as a few lone jammers just investigating the place and not the entirety of Jamaa banding together y'know?)
i'm really just spitballing here, huh? only night of the phantoms can get me like this 😭

hey btw if you're in the USA at 2:20 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Oct. 4, they're testing the emergency broadcast system. your phone is probably going to make a really loud noise, even if it's on silent. there's a backup date on the 11th if they need to postpone it.
if you're not in a safe situation and have an extra phone, you should turn that phone completely off beforehand.
additionally, if you're like me, and are easily startled; i recommend treating it like a party. have a countdown or something. be surrounded by your loved ones. take the actions you personally need to take to make yourself safe.
i have already seen mockery towards any person who feels nervous about this. for the record, it completely, completely valid to have "emergency broadcast sounds" be an anxiety trigger. do not let other people make fun of you for that. emergency sounds are legitimately engineered to make us take action; those of us with high levels of anxiety and/or neurodivergence are already pre-disposed to have a Bad Time. sometimes it is best to acknowledge that the situation will be triggering for some, and to prepare for that; rather than just saying "well that's stupid, it's just a test."
"loud scary sound time" isn't like, my favorite thing, but we can at least try to prevent some additional anxiety by preparing for it. maybe get yourself a cake? noise cancelling headphones? the new hozier album? whatever helps. love u, hope you're okay. we are gonna ride it out together.

able-bodied people will act like getting a mobility aid must be some tragic expirience where you resign yourself to being burdened by your disability forever meanwhile I'm over here counting down the days until my custom made knee braces come in like a kid waiting for Christmas absolutely giddy thinking about all the things I'm gonna be able to do once my joints have the support they need
