Observing by finding some dog furries and tossing three tennis balls at once so they come back as Cerberuses.

We're under a tornado watch until 11 pm and BunnyHugger's mother-in-law has two tornado warnings in her county so if @lightspill could dial the weather back just a touch that would be great, thanks.

Feeling an itch to do funny trenchant observational humor about furry species but all I have is "oh, you're a raccoon? How neat that your favorite color is blue!"

@Austin_Dern@blimps.xyz avatar

Maybe "Oh, a rat? So do you sleep in your skintight rubber laboratory cybercoat or are you someone's Sex Pistols'sona?'

Oooh, nice to meet a new dragon! So are you 'basically a cat' or a 'Fun Crazy Aunt'?

"You're a liquid goo symbiote? Oh, that's precious. I hope you do find a partner who helps with your touch starvation!"

"So excited to meet a new anubis! I've wanted to ask an expert some stuff about rubber gas masks."

To show I can do one of these for coatis: "Oh, so great to know your favorite bird is the toucan!"

I realize that's incomprehensible for folks because you've all met one coati and it's me but trust me, there is a weirdly high concentration of toucan-appreciators in the coati community.

"Very excited to meet a new cat! I love the way you blend curmudgeon and pratfall!"

"There's a new skunk in the neighborhood? Looking forward to meeting her. Does her tailwrap smell like french vanilla roast or like hypnosis?"

("No, I don't know why not both?")

I feel like I've had more opportunities to roleplay lately, but I'm still kind of struggling to get an ongoing story going that's exciting to me like stuff I've gotten to do in the past. It seems hard to make up stuff on the spot to escape just characters idly talking to each other; I have tried a bit, though I have learned that things that are exciting to me aren't always things other people also care about.

@NovaSquirrel Well, you know me, I may lack any magic or cool powers ... so far as you all know about ... but I'm game for some lighthearted adventures and as cute goes, it's hard to ever do better than a coati.

@NovaSquirrel Have any outlines of things you'd like to see coming her way? I can try and help folks nudge action in the right way.

I think our answering machine just baffled a robocall. After getting past our introduction something spurted out "Hi, I'm Becky Brick[?]'"and then stopped.

Or maybe it's just that Becky Brick is really happy with herself and is sharing the news. No reason that the self-affirmation euphoria has to only be shared on fedi servers.

To answer your questions regarding our answering machine: yes, my wife and I are an Old and we do have two phones on the land line, one of them a plastic Snoopy telephone with a rotary dial.

@sanfierro @cmconseils Because when I copy text from one window to another, it is always because I need the text in a different document, and never because I need a line of green Blorbo Avant Condensed Bold 18-point (gold background) in the middle of a window full of black Calibri 11-point on a light grey background.

Realizing somewhere in the Hallmark store there probably is a 'do u rp' card, somewhere.

Our pet rabbit's grabbed a scrap of wrapping paper and is waving it around in his mouth, like he wants us all to know he's so good at foraging he found this and we didn't.

I got pooltoy art of Rebecca (my beaver taur character) from @SqueakyCheeToy !

I especially like the tail here, it's a good opportunity to play with printed-on details and it kinda looks like one of those inflatable pool mattresses.

@Austin_Dern@blimps.xyz avatar

@NovaSquirrel @SqueakyCheeToy Your characters really do make natural toys, pool or otherwise.

I really hope lighthearted non-erotic roleplay isn't just dead these days and that I'm just really terrible at reaching people who like it. If there's people out there I don't think I can reach them myself.

Austin_Dern,
@Austin_Dern@blimps.xyz avatar

@NovaSquirrel For what it's worth I like you and your characters. We just don't seem to connect as much as I'd like.

Again congratulations to @2chaotic for picking up a side hustle writing the Olive And Popeye comic strip!

@jmac Heh! Well, I like crediting 2 for any people-in-bubbles content.

But I am also quite happy that there's now three new Popeye comic strip installments a week. I'm hoping my sailor man can get back into the popular culture.
