Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

Helped Jo with her table at an anime con today. We barely made over expenses but at least there was a J-pop singer banging out Cruel Angel’s Thesis and that good theme from Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood.
