The You Game!

[Serza5]

< Didn't realize ^ was interested in games like that.

< figured that since < likes programming and games < would head down the games programming line
Besides the fact that the course < doesn't have a lot of games specific modules < is rather enjoying it

[Reese Riverson]

< wonders what ^ would try to make.

[Serza5]

< would love to make Hoenn remakes

[Reese Riverson]

< Guesses ^ will have a million remakes made, then?

[Serza5]

Nah < would have the one constantly updated one + DLC to make everyone Wallace

[Reese Riverson]

< wonders if ^ can make sprites.

[Serza5]

< has done some level of it
The Sycamore sprite in <'s sig is made by <, not from scratch mind you but the hair was still a pain in the butt

[Reese Riverson]

< Thinks that looks pretty nice, ^ Probably wants to make sprites from scratch too?

[Serza5]

It's something < wouldn't mind learning about but not a main priority sort of thing

[Reese Riverson]

< Has faith in ^ to do well in that, really.

[Serza5]

Thanks!

< just came back from eating a roast chicken dinner

[Reese Riverson]

< Will be eating lunch now.

Chicken Alfredo.

[Serza5]

< thinks that sounds delicious

[Reese Riverson]

< Says it is delicious, < really enjoys it, especially with Parmesan cheese.

[Bradandez]

< is doing more art for WonderCon.

[Reese Riverson]

< Wonders how long ago ^ made ^'s characters in ^'s sig.

[Bradandez]

< made the Elem characters back in May 2011.

[Reese Riverson]

< Thinks that's pretty cool.

< Had made <'s character in <'s sig, at least two years ago.

< had heard of Genie/Susan Wiley before, but only now did < get around to reading her (entire) Wiki article, and it's the first time in a while that < has wanted to genuinely weep for someone. She spent the first thirteen years of her life tied down, immobilised and locked in complete isolation, and then was rescued and nurtured by scientists, trying to teach her to speak, and essentially become a human being. Then, due to a slight stalling after so many years of amazing progress had already been made to the point where she could communicate and interact verbally to a decently fluid extent, her funding was dropped and she ended up in an abusive foster home where after being beaten once for throwing up, she regressed almost instantly to her almost lifeless pre-rescue state, forgot how to speak, and hasn't improved much to this day, over thirty years later.

< doesn't understand what the hell the directors who dropped her funding were thinking. Not only are cases like this almost unheard of, and not only was hers the most extreme in recorded history, they gave up on one of the most remarkable lives < has ever seen, leaving it to be governed by the special/insanity ward; she wasn't currently 'scientifically profitable' anymore, so they treated her like a criminal or an animal. Maybe < has an obvious soft spot for this kind of thing, always relating back to human rights, but < can't properly express how much < felt for her, and for the people who without a second thought dedicated their lives to staying with and teaching her, and how angered < felt when after reading such a lengthy, beautiful story of reformation, she was suddenly left for dead. And now she'll never be able to express herself properly, or interact with the world again. Not even the people who spent years and years mentoring and loving her are allowed to see her, or even know anything about her anymore, not even where she lives. Her mother, her only allowed visitor, died a few years ago too.

[Reese Riverson]

This is the first time < ever heard something like this, and < honestly still doesn't know anything about it, but by what ^ wrote, it sounds pretty heart-breaking, for that to have happened. < Just took a quick glance at the Wiki article and sees that was quite some time ago.
