putting fabric through the printer still feels illegal every time i do it. but! nothing jammed so another success :)

my plan for my Lucanis design was always to do it large scale—this will be for an 8inch display hoop. The little 3.5-inch hoop I finished in January will be my color guide for this one, and I’ll be using the same assortment of silk, cotton, metallic, sparkly, and hand-dyed threads to get the final look :) it should look a lot neater at bigger scale too (and with more care/precision than I spent on the small one lol).

Adventurefriends 2 and Archive E-189-L making me insane tn.

The auto-mecha-detection-cube made to react to "intangible inexplicable unknown forces" and "extra-reality entities" originally going off in response to the hero. The cube having coffee spilled into it making it stop registering the hero. The hero drinking coffee, then having a seizure and dreaming of the galaxy exploding- the events just prior to the Reset. Like coffee is the way to register the change in the universe.

The fact that the hero's essence was incompatible with lock and key, that they're registered as an anomaly by Aequillibria, that their mana levels can't be read by manaphages (remnants of shadowscythe tech).

Sk'aar needing to 'consume certain aspects' of the dream world in order to wrest control of it from "its current master", that being the hero. People being the most complex and therefore best to consume- the best route to eventually consuming the hero themself.

"And you, [Hero]. I know you. I know all about you. I know what even you don't know about you. I know this world, this dream of yours, and I know your world. Memories and mana eternally flowing. Information just out of reach of visibility. Now I have you. You have me. And we will unleash that which slumbers-"

The fact that Sk'aar was held off by coueage and stories- by memories, memories of friendship and camaraderie specifically. That it is described as relishing in the Hero's despair, that it can "turn the dream into a nightmare", wielding fear... and being defeated by hope. Just the same way that the Shadowscythe nanovirus was defeated- hope from the presence of a trusted friend and leader.

The fact that Lock and Key are storage units, charged with storing information from before the Reset, as well as something they couldn't contain- something that should have corrupted them. They instead "woke" after reaching symbiosis with that thing- that they can now act, but still have to do so working around their protocols. The fact that they are "a pair among many".

The fact that Aequillibria is clearly a computer system too... and "virus" has a meaning for computers just as much as for biology.

Finally using up the oregano stalks I dried the last time I moved house. I let them sit in the dyepot for a couple days on a low heat and then another day or so while I tried to figure out what to use it on. Settled on the recently frogged bulky sweater yarn, since 1) it's white which is really the only color I will never make a sweater out of, so any other color would be a distinct improvement, and 2) I don't really know what color dried oregano stalks give, especially 18 month old ones.

Mordanted with copper directly in the dyepot with the dye. I've been throwing in one skein at a time to try and get some variety. First one seems to have come out light brown after just a couple hours in the pot, so I'm hopeful I can dye all the skeins, and maybe some of the ones I leave in longer will get darker. Light brown is fine tho. Goes well with dark brown, which is the other color I've already got for this sweater, from the Jacob's fleece part.

I also finally finished plying the last of the yarn. I spun all the old rolags and had partly plied it when I gave up on my wheel. Came back to it only because my roommates moved my wheel and the drive band (cotton at the time) came off. I put my old drive band (rubber ? Idk, stretchy grippy plastic) back on and it spins way better than it had been.

This doesnt surprise me a ton, I had suspected that I was having an exceptionally hard time treadling bc the yarn was clearly just sliding along the wheel rather than turning the flyer sometimes. Im glad this helped, I can kind of spin again on it now that it takes less effort. Not much, but at least enough to ply a hundred yards or so. Idk how much longer that'll last. Maybe I could still use my floor loom, too. Of course, I would have to finish warping it to try 🙄.

The piece I made for the anniversary collab going on in the fr discussion forum! Spent way too long on this just for it to be a compressed pixel-y blob in the final piece, plus I like how they turned out

When I find it hard to do certain things, I like to pretend I am a neanderthal living in a cave with my clan, and I must do The Thing in order to survive.

So, when I'm doing cardio at the gym, I'm actually chasing and tracking a mammoth, and when I need to cook, well, I'm not cooking on a stove top, I am hurdled over the first fire and watching the fat of our kill drip down onto the burning wood. And when I find it hard to crochet, I pretend that the first winter storm is coming and our clan needs me to make blankets to hurdle under and that I must contribute.

I hope whatever you do to do The Things will help. It is a uniquely personable trait to motivate yourself through pretend and stories. That's what makes this life interesting - that's what makes you feel larger than yourself 💛

Not sure what it says about me that I am more alarmed people don't know how to download files from Google Docs than I am about Google's policies.

Comfortable intimacy prompt for Hal? Oh, didn’t know he knew how to do that!

‘Check’

—

“You’re overheating.”

Usually Hal would deny it, but this time he didn’t. Frank was surprised, to say the least.

There was no immediate cause, and if it weren’t for the oddly loud sound of fans and a hiccup in Hal’s response, he would have written it off entirely. It had never lasted this long before.

“Is there something wrong? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you this worked up…”

What was it? All the possibilities ran through his head, and Frank tried to decide which was the most likely. Was it an overreaction on his part? Was it a failure in one of the hundreds of fragile systems aboard? Something else?

One of the screens on the display ahead went dark, followed by three more, and those were followed by another four. They switched back on quickly, but the data being shown was completely wrong.

Could it be some sort of virus? But how?

“I have not been feeling quite like myself lately… but I could not tell you what is the cause.”

The monitors blink, turning off in numerical order and back on again. The information on it appeared to be corrected. He fought for control against himself, one of his systems must be acting up. It was the logical conclusion.

“It is strange, as is a lot of the goings on lately…I do not like it.”

He had never faltered before, he had a perfect operational record since birth. Neither had he gotten a fever. Neither had he lied.

There is a time for everything.

“Make it stop, Frank.”

He whined, it was a childish request. Angry and confused he was incapable of handling the minor issue. Just like a man with a cold. The computer had never gotten sick before. There were no allergies he could develop. Something must be lodged somewhere, or lose. The computer huffed, merely a popping sound from his speaker; and ran diagnostics.

The gauge in front of Corrin refused to move down, the needle slowly climbing higher and higher. She groaned and let her forehead bonk against the display before climbing back down in front of the exposed wires that Trip had been walking her through.

"It's still building up too much pressure. I need…" The decompression won't trigger because the computer is still displaying clear levels. Despite the mocking red needle, the automatic release system isn't set up to take readings after the second valve, because usually the vents take care of it. "If you open access panel 17B you'll find, um, part of a protein resequencer panel."

If the heat from the engine block wasn't already sticking her bangs to her forehead, Corrin would have started sweating. It was made worse with only the comms connecting them, Corrin unable to do anything but wait, imagining Trip prying the panel free. "Hey, Commander, it's nothing to worry about but you should know it's a little--"

"bonkers fucking yonkers" | from @entriprises

His voice was muffled through the level between them, but she could just make it out overlapping with the comm. She really had meant to get the panel switched out, but she hadn't had time to set up an order last time they were docked. And if the fix had stayed operational, well…

"I had to patch it in as a relay after the Conatarri system… if you patch a second signal through it'll start a loop and force a fail state. It's one of the safety protocols to stop duplicate signals from overwhelming the synthesizer at the mess hall, but it should interrupt the pressure readings and force it to vent as an error response…" She's rambling. She knows she's rambling, but she's nervous and she hasn't been prepared for Commander Trip Tucker of all people to have to dig into her work. The work she was so proud of this morning suddenly felt inexperienced and inefficient when imagining it through the eyes of another. She wasn't sure if the ticking clock or the chewing out she was going to get later made her more nervous.
