    Melancholy of Mechagirl is an awesome book and people should read it. :3

    Seriously, you don't have to respond to this status update or tell me what you thought of it or anything like that. All I ask is if you happen to be in a library or a book store or something and remember this, try hunting down a copy and reading a few pages at whatever point you like previewing books at. You might really like it.

    I get that like, two people max will actually decide to take a chance, remember the title, obtain one, find it interesting, and read it. But those two people are going to have a lovely time. <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/grin2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

    If I happen to go to a bookstore any time soon, I'll make sure to look for that.

    Because, apparently, everyone here on the Forums is a god/goddess, what type of god are you?

    Well, sillier discussion is fun. It'd be kind of odd if all of your interactions with a person were serious discussions, I think. Still, a bit of balance is a good thing. Considering these things are best left unspoken and two people may have different ideas of what they want at the moment or in general...well, I guess that's what makes relationships tricky at times. Then again, that's vastly overthinking it. =o

    Anyway, weird non-trick question: is there a thing you're passionate about?

    You have a very interesting mind-set, Polaris. Noted.

    <del class='bbc'>well see i have my hand here</del>
    Yeah! In fact there's like two things I'm super passionate about: Cryaotic and The Walking Dead game. Those two things give me life (metaphorically)
    Now, what is the thing you're passionate about? (besides gardevoirs owo)
    Polaris
    Polaris
    I don't know what Cryaotic is, I'll look that up sometime =o

    Excuse my lateness. Besides #282, I'm pretty hard on myself to improve in general. It only rarely has an effect, but when it does it's usually dramatic. I'm also very much into thinking, which goes well with an interest or two that I don't like to share often. There's also the obvious answers of reading and video games...but I'm not sure that counts as a passion. More like an obsession? An addiction? A harmless but overused hobby? I'm not sure where that lies.

    Considering I spend a lot of time wondering about these things, I don't have many answers about myself. Or maybe I don't want to admit things. ^.^;

    I recruit you, Polaris, to bring an end to Überkat's reign of terror! We need all the help we can get, because this won't be an easy battle for the rebellion...
    Polaris

    I don't like rebellion. I don't like obeying orders, either. I will kindly help neither side.

    I hope you realize that I'm not happy with that. It's supposed to be a simple testing mod, but I couldn't even finish that because I lost access to computers a year ago, only a few months after I started it...

    There were many things I would have liked to streamline, alter, improve or add. You clearly weren't too impressed in the video, so just know that it isn't a thing to take seriously. √.~

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="Noxid"><p>clearly it was directed at polaris</p></blockquote>Good guess! But when I'm talking about myself I generally write 3 page essays. :<

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="Thatnamelessguy"><p>Well um, that's good for you I suppose! I really wish I could do that kind of thing, I try to talk to more people but I'm just generally really bad at trying to make conversation with people I don't know very well.

    And that's fine, really. Not everyone is good at that sort of thing, I don't think I really am either. From what I've seen you're fairly social, so it's not like it's crippling you or anything. Talking to new people is hard! =o

    Learning how to be social/overcome boundaries is essentially "Let's Tell Our Brain To Shut Up in 70 Different Ways: The Game", at least in my experience.

    Now this makes more sense!

    Back from Florida! I also took the time to clean up the about me section and other things on my profile page, now that the internet's better. I added a bunch of links to other places I frequent, if you care for some reason! You probably don't, and that's perfectly okay. Enjoy the rest of your summer - I'd like to get back to posting more regularly and uploading gallery images now. <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

    I was only gone for roughly a week, though. o.o

    But anyway, yes, I thoroughly enjoyed Orlando despite the horrible 90 degree temperatures. :3
    We went to Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Universal Studios, and each one was pretty great. I think I liked Universal Studios the most, though Hollywood Studios had its neat parts and Magic Kingdom was frankly pretty amazing. Apparently we're going next year and bringing more people along. <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/grin2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

    I still don't know how we're paying for it, but hey! I'm looking forward to next year. This is the first time in my life where I've really gone on a fancy vacation, and it's pretty awesome. ^.^

    We're at this really gigantic fancy hotel. I've stood next to the White House and I don't think I've ever been anywhere this swanky. :3

    I have no idea how long we've been saving for this or otherwise paying for it, but I'll enjoy it while we're here ~

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="Tpcool"><p>Sounds awesome, you going to a theme park? I forget how privileged I am to live so close to all of them that I forget that most people typically don't have the opportunity to. Even if you don't, there are still plenty of things to do.</p></blockquote>Apparently so. I think staying at this hotel means it costs less to go to Disney World and Seawhatever and stuff? We're staying for less than a week so we'll definitely be going to the amusement things. <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="BhadRebelle"><p>Have lots of fun Polaris! I hope you enjoy yourself :3 and be safe! Send postcards! ♥️</p></blockquote>Thanks. I will! Somehow!

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="Randolf"><p>Have fun, Polaris! I hope you enjoy your vacation ~</p></blockquote>Oh, thank you. I'll be sure to. £:

    The regular internet is surprisingly feeble here, but I'll get by somehow. I mean, it's not like I need it TOO much.

    10/10 joke. Sleep well, sounds like you need it. o.o

    (At first I thought that was supposed to be a jab implying that the single bad grade somehow landed me a yucky job, because I think Trader Joe's is a restaurant somewhere...)

    <blockquote class='ipsBlockquote' data-author="Dunc"><p>Hey, C+ isn't bad at all for a complete lack of interest. Good work!</p></blockquote>Thanks, I take pride in my mediocrity. :>

    Well, no... I did pretty well on all of the tests, but along with my usual lack of homework I also didn't turn in a project or two...that's why it was as low as it was.

    Gratz on completing this summer's classes! BREAK TIME <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/grin2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />
    ...Though I reccommend in the future trying to avoid the lack of homework and projects... <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/tongue2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':p' /> It can possibly lead to trouble down the road if you let yourself slip with a class or obligation by playing the boring/more interesting things to do cards too often. And it's a good habit to monitor your grades, so you can plan ahead of time, what grade you want to get in the end and what needs to be done to keep it. (That's one thing I like about online grade tracking...)

    ...After saying that, I think I'll make a status update for my foolishness and current predicament... x[
    *rumbling thunder*
    Polaris
    Polaris
    That's true. I'll try to monitor my grades more actively in the future, and that card will not be played too often. I need to do at least pretty well (all Bs is my minimum) to keep my options open for the future, so I assure you I'll be the most hardworking lazy person you'll ever meet. :3

    So I finally found a copy of Puzzles and Dragons for a platform I actually own, but it's a Japan exclusive. Curse you region lock!

    Um...you're talking about Puzzle and Dragons Z, the console spinoff/adaptation that is way different from the original game. Great in its own right, but it hasn't been made in English yet. P&D is available for iOS, Android and Kindle Fire, so unless you have one of those you'll have to wait until you get one or P&DZ is released for the US.

    You're talking about Quotev?

    No, I was actually talking about Puzzle and Dragons forums. (I eventually decided on Nemesis, by the way, since a reference to Cave Story via Polar Star would be out of place and Nemesis sounds similar enough). Polaris is available just fine on Quotev, though I haven't really gotten started there yet.

    I'm joining all these things and haven't recorded them, now that I think about it. I should find a way to get them on my profile. =o
    Polaris
    Polaris
    By the way...where do you go in Quotev? How do people talk there? D:

    I'm kind of milling around the front page doing quizzes at the moment. (Did you know my element is Water and I have a heart of glass? I didn't.)

    I didn't like the boss music that much except for the Queen's, but Pepper Steak is wonderful and I have a lot of other music saved on my phone. <img src='http://www.cavestory.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/grin2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />
    Particular favorites are Empty Warehouse, Dramatic Crescendo and Rainy Day - In.
    I actually kind of like Endless Hallway for being so horrifying, Silencio tickles my ears, and Not Safe is also lurking in my music list just to tempt fate as a 1 in 700 chance of ohgod. :3

    Really, I loved OFF's story. If you look at it a certain way, it's actually sort of nice. I hang on to the personal theory that the Batter was saving the world by ending it.
    SeasonsOfDestiny
    SeasonsOfDestiny
    I like OFF's story as well, though the 2nd to last fight in the game (not saying against what to avoid spoiling it for those who read this, but when I got there I was legitimately stunned) kind of convinced me that the Batter was a sort of anti-hero all along. Sure, stuff is pretty messed up in most of the zones, but look what ends up happening to them when they're purified. It's like trying to fight something bad with another bad thing, only to have it result in something worse.
    Polaris
    Polaris
    Well, while he does make it worse...there's really little way to make anything better. Purifying and therefore ruining all of the zones was just a stepping stone to erasing them all completely. I think killing a suffering world is better than leaving it be. Even if you temporarily make it worse, it doesn't really matter. And while he's definitely an antihero, didn't the Judge condemn the world to emptiness forever by not letting him end it? =o
