This is the first time I've caught the Icelandic Waters rapidly making plans like this since the Submerged Superstructure / Bitter Aerie incident . . .
Pariki: *sees someone's artwork* “My beloved Haku! You're so beautiful!”
Icelandic Water Dragon: *silent approval*
Icelandic Waters: “OK, here's the plan. After going to bed, we monitor the ATV channel for a few minutes to see if it's still in use. If it isn't, good. If it is, then it isn't like he's actively checking the history for misplaced entries. Tomorrow morning at 7, once the floor is clear, we-”
Icelandic Water Dragon: “Whoawhoawhoa, slow down. What exactly are you planning to do?”
When I first got the Rhythm Doctor level editor, I tried to chart Sukide. However, I couldn't get it properly calibrated. Given that I have since managed to calibrate songs with decimal BPMs, I'll take a second attempt at charting it tomorrow.
I just remembered these cryptic storyboards that I broadcasted on RW-570. I should get back into making these, but the stuff that I'm making in Colubrine Sector these days can't really be properly visualized outside of an AI image generator.
How to freak out Pariki 101: put a dragon in danger.
Icelandic Water Dragon: *reading TLoZ:EoW dialogue out loud* “They have appeared in Eldin Volcano, Faron Wetlands, and Holy Mount Lan-an—n-m-n-“
Pariki: “Oh no. Oh dear. Naydra, my beloved, are you okay?!“
Icelandic Waters: “Umm, aren’t those three locations where all three of the immortal dragons are?”
Pariki: “Oh dear, oh dear . . .“ *panicked breathing*
Five minutes later…
Rhoam: “Those three locations connect to the Prime Energy — a source of power beyond our understanding, left behind by the goddesses.“
Pariki: “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
Me: *paces on screened-in back porch while being pummeled with wind and rain through the screen*

PERSONAL CAPTAIN'S LOGS FROM COMMANDER KEKE
-=-=-=-
DATESTAMP 1.701.7 :: What to say about the specimen? It came from a
private collector, a part of some family for centuries.
We only had to feed it once a year. It didn't need light or water.
All it needed was conversation, though it showed no signs of
understanding. We have been commanded to sell it.
DATESTAMP 1,577,7 :: There are many ways to profit from a lifeform.
Exploit its labour, consume it, process it for chemicals. Other
creatures are purely for entertainment.
This entity... it is none of them. It doesn't move. It doesn't sing
or dance or bleed. It just listens.
DATESTAMP 1,738.0 :: All it took was ignoring it. All it took was a
month alone in that cold and the dark, until we found its value...
DATESTAMP 1,790.9 :: The creature has laid an egg. Even as I record
this log, the crew prepares to cut it open...
