@Tsundererra: I think maybe the aesthetics of Voltra are a bit....off from 'normal' and maybe it's a creature that is good to those who are good, and horrifying to those who are horrible?

@Tsundererra: it's good that the staff here is so friendly. I think Panthalassa is the solstice spirit, sort of like Father Christmas. I like that it's named after the ocean during the time of Pangea, and after one of my favorite Miles Davis albums

@Tsundererra: well, professionally in the sense that I make ceramic pieces to sell. I don't have a 'day job' because I was very ill for a long time, and still am recovering - it's hard for me to sustain activity needed for regular jobs. I'm working on building my art business up instead, so I can determine my hours as I'm able to work

@Tsundererra: I felt a bit lost, and sometimes still do, but I figure the more I stick around on Voltra, the more I'll learn about the world

@Tsundererra: I don't mind getting dirty from art, but it's so annoying when I've thrown a cup on the wheel, made the surface super smooth and then go to lift it off the wheel and make little gouges all over

I guess I let my nails grow out because my last show of 2019 was the 7/8 of December, so I've been taking a break from ceramics making to do holiday things and plan for the new year

@Tsundererra: same, a database of the lore would be so nice, but I'm sure it's in the works

@Tsundererra: normally mine are super short, since I make ceramics and even short nails will scratch the clay and leave annoying marks

@Tsundererra: Yeah, the reaping ritual was fun, and helped introduce me to more of the Voltra npcs, kind of like this event is doing

My left hand is newly trimmed and I'd forgotten the ease of typing with short nails. I don't really know why I grew them out. Maybe just to see how long before I got really annoyed?

I've been having trouble typing quickly, because I let my fingernails grow out, so I'm trimming them back to super short again

@Tsundererra: I wish it would stay, too. I only joined voltra in late october, and it was the puzzles that first drew me in

@Tsundererra: yeah, puzzles are fun, and I have another website that's puzzles only that I go play when I need more puzzles
