I'd say that was pretty worthwhile

I'll take the cooler, rainy weather, since my house has no A/C and 90F kills me.

Also, at least you can do that math, I suppose? 0_0 I lost all my skills after my first year in college.

 

[canisaries]

pfft that math? not really advanced at all, i just wrote so much because i lose track of everything very fast otherwise

but i'm going to a technical university so i kind of have to know these things

In other news, Nanu x Reader fan fiction is a thing. It's so horrifying that it's hysterical.

 

[diamondpearl876]

^ I've never read a truer thing in my life, to be honest.

 

[AceTrainer14]

I just don't get the appeal of Nanu, really. There are always these characters that people in the fandom seem to obsess over, and I just end up sitting there thinking "WHY?!"

 

[canisaries]

i don't get what's strange about it, nanu's just... cool, pure and simple. he's got that "don't give a damn about anything" attitude and a mysterious past but a hidden heart of goooold.

now if you wanna talk strange, that's when all the fanart of the younger girls come in...

It's been a while since I played Sun, but I seem to recall the first thing I thought about Nanu was "dereliction of duty".

If you've got a hidden heart of gold, you're just being lazy

 

[Instrutilus]

Or have been so disillusioned with the world everything seems pointless to do, but you've gotta do it anyway because you've committed.

 

[Misfit Angel]

Another possibility is that they just don't realize they have a heart of gold.

As someone who's suffered the duty of finding said Nanu x Reader fanfiction for purposes of drunk entertainment, I can say there are a lot of fics that suggest far worse. Also, the word choice in the sex scenes is usually cringe-worthy.

 

[UselessBytes]

Yeah... I stumbled upon Character X Reader pics a few years ago and found some very... interesting ones. Needless to say I haven't given the time of day since, really.

 

[Misfit Angel]

What are these "x reader" things anyways? I see them all the time on Deviant Art but I scroll past them so fast that I can't glean even the slightest hint as to what they are.

I know next to nothing about them, but if what I've gathered from various places is anything to go by, it's a fic that ships the reader ("you") with a character in said fic. That's as much as I understand, though.

 

[diamondpearl876]

Yep, what @Subarashii said. They're really not as common as they used to be back in LiveJournal days, I think, but they're still out there.

 

[AceTrainer14]

Basically Mary Sue fiction without any of the pretense that the main character isn't you

i do what i can for the sake of my people

Well, that was a ride. Managed to write, proofread and post two chapters almost entirely from scratch today. I've been up for 22 hours in the process, though I only spent about nine of those writing.

Time for bed.
