Kingdom of Knuffel

You should conduct social experiments on your housemates. Make weird changes to the house and then record their responses. It will make the place feel more like home and your housemates feel more like test subjects. You know, for science.

I find it deeply appropriate that the ninja larps. I want to see this in action. Please continue to send me updates on all the ninja's activities and behavior.

I resolved the issue with my electric bill! I called customer service and the rep looked at my bill and said, "Yup, that's not right" and fixed it right away. And by "fixed it", I mean she made up a new random number of kwh and billed me for that instead. Who knew that the system was so easy to manipulate?

Maybe I'll clean and see if they notice.

He comes home late a lot. Spends a lot of time with his girlfriend. She also larps. They have matching foam swords.

I'm glad you were able to adult successfully for the purpose of saving money.

How is Coral? Does she still hide under the bed whenever the door opens?

Cleaning is, in my experience, not an effective form of social experiment. Most people are conditioned to ignore cleanliness. You could clean their rooms and they might notice that.

Is his girlfriend also TOTALLY RIPPED?

Coral is so comfortable here now! She usually keeps doing whatever she's doing when I come in the door. Or she stops to come meow at me and demand food.

But one of my roommates claims to also like cleaning. She might notice. That would be the experiment.

She has an athletic look to her, yes. Neither of them appears totally ripped while wearing clothes.

Does she scarf her food? It seems like singleton cats might be amenable to, say, leaving extra food out over the weekend while you're away. They'll save it rather than eating it all and vomiting and eating it again in a horrid cycle.

Ah, yes, then continue with the experiment. It will give you good cleaning feelings, anyway.

"An athletic look"? Are we talking amazonian or more ex-gymnast? Also, does the ninja eat food that normal people eat?

She pretty much eats as fast as she ever did. She has started leaving one or two kibbles in the bowl now and then, but she'll rediscover these about an hour later and act like they're an unexpected blessing from her deity.

Not bulky and also not tiny. Like they do athletic things in their free time and eat a lot of roughage. What do you think athletic people look like?

Coral worships Past-Coral. Interesting. I guess if cats are never wrong, they have no reason to dislike their past selves. Unlike us.

Athletic people come in many forms. Big athletic, small athletic, medium athletic. Swimmer or dancer or boxer or bodybuilder. Many forms.

You didn't answer me. What does the ninja eat???

I don't think Coral would recognize Past-Coral if they encountered one another. And I don't think Past-Coral is generous enough to actively leave food for Future-Coral, just sloppy enough to miss kibbles.

I hate the person that reading fanfiction has made me.

So I'm searching for fanfics with whatever characters X and Y in a couple, and I come across one with the description: "Character X kills and eats Character Y. Gore practice." And instead of being horrified, I'm like, oh, yup, practice.

Then I'm still scrolling and I come across one of those fics that has like a hundred fandoms listed, and I'm actually considering reading it before I see that it has both Warhammer 40K and My Little Pony.

What have I become?

Sorry for the double post.

Edit: I also just came across the word "consentacles".

The ninja eats protein powder and grains.

You should embrace this person. This person is just very open-minded. Nothing wrong with that. Did you read the gore practice fic? Was it romantic cannibalism, or just cannibalism?

Can't mix ponies and the grim future in which there is only war. Nope. Ridiculous.

Edit: I don't approve. It's entirely against the spirit of the genre.

...The gore practice may or may not have been romantic cannibalism. It was tagged "vore", so maybe. I didn't read it. I was worried the gore may have been too intense and I was in the mood for fluff, which is the opposite of gore, I think.

I think consentacles could be very sweet. Not in a story with such a poorly-capitalized summary as that one, but... there's a context for it, I'm sure.

You seen any good/bad/goodbad fanfic recently?
