It's Tintin Day again! ✨ And Haddock's poor old back gives out under the weight of Tintin fact-dropping current events like it's nothing!
There's been a big upheaval in the Detective Conan fandom - a disruption to vital shipping routes, you could say! Thank goodness attention is elsewhere so Tintin can continue pretending several of his own adventures didn't happen! 🌊🛥️

'ello, I drew a comic page.
There's no script or anything, so not much context I could give, except that Penny and Ashley are not quite seriously dating here.
We'll see what happens while I draw.

Hot take: Just because you can't respond right away does not make you a bad roleplayer. This is something I have to keep telling myself, too. But I've been talking to a few friends lately that are feeling inadequate in some ways because people will suddenly stop writing with them because they aren't responding immediately that day, and that breaks my heart. We're all adults (or we should be in this fandom, big ooooof), and we all have lives. Sometimes we can't just sit on the computer and type back and forth for hours. I'd personally never get anything done if that was the case for me.
Just know that I'm always going to be patient with y'all. I don't care if it takes a day, or three months. You never have to apologize. I will be right here, excited whenever I get a reply, and excited to write with you. I just want people to know that they are still loved and appreciated even if they aren't around as much, because this is a HOBBY, and I've seen too many sad posts about people feeling unwanted because they aren't around consistently.

CLASSIFIED
HASA Interspace Investigation Coalition Investigator Reassessment Team
For: the Mission Critical Event Occurring on Stardate 2104.119
Stardate: 2104.123, Location: HCS Influence
Responses recorded using the Automated Question and Answer System (AQNA) aboard the HCS Influence.
Recorded responses enclosed.
Begin transcribed data.
Interview for: IIC Employee #7717
Stated Name: Hels
SESSION BEGIN
AQNA [Generated Text Question]: Please explain the events of [stardate 2104.119].
Subject (Hels) [Recorded Verbal Response]: Well that’s an easy question. We got ambushed, that's what f—ing happened. It was supposed to be a standard datum extraction from a site that was supposed to be abandoned, because nobody decided it would be a good idea to check again. So we got ambushed mid-mission. That's what happened.
AQNA: Can you elaborate on the event that triggered the call-back sequence?
Hels: What, you want me to draw you a diagram?
[No AQNA Text Question Generated]
Hels: So no diagram?
[No AQNA Text Question Generated]
Hels: The drop-squad successfully made ground contact after about half an hour of survey on our end. We assumed based off of initial information and our scans, that the site was uninhabited. I mean—it’s a decommissioned testing facility for something way more boring than what we’re usually sent for. Why the f— would there be… things living there. Things. They weren’t human. They weren’t me either. We triggered the call-back sequence because I watched everything go white so fast I thought I was seeing the inside of my skull. Ex is the only reason I got out alive. I’m sure he’s… thrilled.
AQNA: Were you unable to retrieve the body and equipment of [#7716]?
Hels: I didn’t see him. On account of the pulse grenade. Did you watch the footage, or should I be playing narrator?
[No AQNA Text Question Generated]
Hels: I don’t know where he is. I don’t know what they did to him. We lost all his vitals when the pulse fried our equipment at the site.
Interviewer: Can you elaborate on the status of [#7716]?
Hels: What do you mean elaborate? What—he’s probably dead. Is that what you want to hear? He’s f—ing dead. He’s dead, you piece of shit machine. Go ask somebody else what they think.
[No AQNA Text Question Generated]
Interviewer: Can you speak to [#6763]’s competence as potential squadron leader?
[No verbal recorded response available]
SESSION END
Interview for: IIC Employee #6763
Stated Name: Exania
SESSION BEGIN
AQNA [Generated Text Question]: Please explain the events of [stardate 2104.119].
Subject (Exania) [Recorded Verbal Response]: We failed to complete our extraction procedure. I was able to reach the data site within an hour of touchdown, alongside the rest of the team. We successfully retrieved the abandoned facility data within our allotted time frame, but on the way back to extraction, we were ambushed and caught in the line of fire of the inhabitants that had taken over the facility. I was able to successfully extract the bridge crew and one other member of the drop-squad.
AQNA: Can you elaborate on the events that triggered the call-back sequence?
Exania: We were attacked? Someone started shooting. Someone threw a magnetizer and a pulse grenade. The two other drop-squad members took a majority of the flash, but it was bright. Everywhere was... painfully bright. I don't have much more to say on that. I just acted in the best interest of the team as second in command.
AQNA: Were you unable to retrieve the body and equipment of [#7716]?
Exania: He’s dead. What did you want us to do? Retrieve a handful of charred up equipment? I don’t think so.
AQNA: Can you elaborate on the status of [#7716]?
Exania: He’s dead. That’s it.
AQNA: Can you speak to [#7717]’s competence as potential squadron leader?
Exania: #7717? I can't.
AQNA: Can you elaborate?
Exania: I can't.
AQNA: Can't? Or won't?
Exania: Does it matter?
[No AQNA Text Question Generated]
AQNA: Please elaborate on your specific involvement with the events of [stardate 2104.119].
Exania: I successfully extracted information from the facility on [REDACTED]. I successfully extracted my drop member #7717, Hels. We were unsuccessful at a full extraction of the entire crew. Look, did I not just say all of this? What's not clicking for you? I know you're just recording this answer looking for keywords. I'm not daft. I think we’re done.
AQNA: You're excused.
Exania: Thank you.

When I liked an extrovert, I could never tell if he was interested or just being friendly (spoilers: it was NOT the first option). It was super confusing all the time bc I kept getting all these signals like prolonged eye contact and inside jokes and not knowing if they meant anything.
Meanwhile with the introverted guy who's been hanging around lately, I've been like, "He stuck around at a social event to finish a conversation with me. Two days later, he sent me a reel on Instagram even though he isn't online a lot. He's gonna ask me out." And I was RIGHT
