I hope everyone's okay now! Cleaning up after all that is HARD but at least my house didn't get hit too bad... Does anyone need help with anything after last week? Oh, and speaking of my house, we just added a bunch of expansions! We've got an indoor pool now! Friends can come over whenever! I think I know most people on here anyway, and Mary-chan's got a bunch of friends too.

Also also! During that whole thing I tried the full shapeshift. You know, the dragon skill that changes you on the inside and not just the outside? I did it to be more giraffe than I already am because I thought it would help me fight. And it was like, whoa! I could see everything! And hear everything! And I kinda kicked a guy into a wall! Does anyone know how to deal with sensory overload if I ever do that again because it's kind of a lot and by kind of I mean a lot a lot.

P.S. Hina-chan's turning one on the 7th! If you're friends with her come over then! We'll have blood cake and regular cake.

I'm doing alright myself.

Found out that vampires don't like me, but otherwise fine.

I don't have familiarity with giraffe sensory overload but when stuff like that happens I try to shift my focus on just one thing and gradually open up.

Aren't you afraid of getting stuck in a transform and never being human again? I'm assuming you're normally a human at least.

Also the electronics have been a mess, but I've been busying myself with helping repair them. It's the least I can do.

for sensory overload
you're gonna want to sit in a dark room
that's as quiet as possible.
that's what i do when i get overloaded
otherwise
i end up punching through a wall
or something stupid.

you can always come down to the shed if you need it
that's one of the reasons i keep it dark.

[Mr. Man over here deals with a lot of sensory issues; better to set up the space where he lives to accommodate that.]

Glad to see you're doing okay now. Maybe now this is over you can make use of the new pool you got too. Didn't realise those things could be used that way.

For sensory overload, would it help to try it when you have someone you can use as an anchor? Most of the time when I got new blessings we'd try it out in the training area so it doesn't take us by surprise, but it means it's 1 on 1 and easier to get used to how it works.
