Daughter, Queen Scarlet -

Thank you, aha. xD

Also, I'm not sure how to draw a people. xD

..... Just a weird oval-esque shape with eyes, nose, mouth, and hair, I guess. ;-;

.

I mean, that zombie-thing is so hideous I wanna tear my eyes out when I look at it, so... xD

.

Also, Daughter.... move to a smaller city. Not so scary. ;-;

Stay safe. ^^'

Doom

Yeah, dunno :') But I would agree. Also, another difference I noticed were that people are much more shy in Europe? (from my experience). Over here, you can chat with a very friendly stranger in line at the market, but people just sorta don't interact with strangers as much over there. Oh, that might have something to do with it. The sheer amount of school shootings and whatnot is a little alarming.

Tadpole

I can imagine most big cities are lowkey overwhelming >.< Gun laws are so controversial over here. A lot of people really want guns to protect themselves, and a lot of people don't want guns so people can't shoot each other in the first place. It's,,, definitely a sensitive subject over here :')
I mean at least the cities you were in were mostly nice ^^ I've heard Australia is just a wonderful place in general. and sketchy places are no fun >.<

Mother

Pft, people are hard >.< and I love the zombie thing! also, zombies are meant to be imperfect, because they're kinda dead. So even if zombie art is imperfect, it's perfect *^*
I mean. That'd be nice, but my life and home is here and whatnot so eh. The president had called my city 'a rat and rodent infested mess', 'the worst city in america', 'dangerous and filthy' etc. True, it's homicide rates are concerning and whatnot. But eh. It's still my city. And, to be clear, I live on the outskirts with farmland near me, but nearly everything I do is in that city, so I call it my own. Idk. Not a great place but it's still my home >.<

Daughter -

If you say so. xD

.

Ah, I see. :')

We live on the outskirts of.... I don't want to call it a city; it's too small. xD

A town, I guess? And yeah, I think places here have had shootings and whatnot, but we don't walk the streets afraid that something's gonna happen, either. ^^'

How's life in a smaller town? Do you know a lot of people in the town? Is it small enough for that?

I live in a small town outside the main city. My city last year had 350 homocides, I believe? Not counting the non-fatal shootings and stuff, which is higher, probably around the 300-400 mark. Not crazy high, but it's high considering the city isn't really large. But every city has its good and bad. I dunno.

On a lighter note, my puppy has made training progress! And she has a play date set up this weekend.

Wooo!
We're visiting a breeder this weekend, and if everything works out well, we'll be getting one of the pups in their next litter around new years ^^

I already know what I'm gonna teach him/her >:D

Nephew -

Please don't say how to control black holes... >.>

xD

.

Daughter -

I don't know many people here, but my father seems too; but then, again, he did grow up here for a good chunk of his life, so... xD

.

I like it, though. It's definitely not as busy, which is nice. I used to live in Joplin, but we moved a few years ago.... the one thing that I miss is not having all the stinkin' opossums around, lol. xD

.

The other night, we had an opossum on the porch, and it had been sprayed by a skunk, and hoo, boy did it reek. ;-;

No- only I can know how to control black holes.
I'd teach it how to eat Spaghetti XD
I'm actually thinking, as the breed is one of the smarter breeds, that I might be able to teach it the names of my family and kinda use it to summon my parents for me XD

Doom

ooh, awesome! I'm so excited for you *^*

.

Mother

Oh, a quiet sort of town sounds nice! And I don't think I've seen an oppossum up close - they're the dudes that hang from trees, right? And oh man, skunks suck >.<

.

nu nuh, why must black holes eat me - go pick on someone your own size, black hole >.<

Oh, I'm sure your dog would pick that up really quickly! Our dog knows are names, which didn't require training, because when we said the names she picked them up - which I'm sure your dog would do. The summoning may take some taining, though >.<

.

Also, I ran out of commands and tricks to do with chance, so if anyone has fun tricks, let me know! Right now we're just working on scentwork.

I will teach it to summon my parents... maybe even my cats, but I doubt my cats would follow the puppy XD

Hmm... Play dead? my mom wants to teach the puppy play dead... My dad probably wants it to fetch...
What would be fun is to teach a 'acting' like a command to growl and playbite to scare off strangers XD
