03:30 <Schism> And now, the most dangerous enemies in all of Trials of Mana -- the Mana Sanctuary's rabites.

03:30 * Dappled chews on a stick.

03:31 <Schism> This looks like a valuable sword!

03:37 <Ali> Until it isn't!

03:39 <Schism> But Ali!  It's the Sword of Mana, how could it ever not be valuable?

03:39 <Ali> Cause its a fake!

03:39 <Ali> A mere copy sold to tourists

03:40 * Dappled puts it in BotW so that it's energy runs out and can't be used.

03:42 <Ali> God I hate that about BotW

03:42 <Ali> The master sword is just a child's energy weapon and 'breaks'

04:00 * Schism seeks out Li'l Cactus. After all, the next prize is 50% cost for respecs.

04:07 <Schism> And I completely space on which Li'l Cacti I've gotten.

04:18 <Schism> There, 30/50 Li'L Cacti so far...

04:19 <Schism> 5 more and I get knowledge of where the _remaining_ ones are.

04:31 <Schism> "We've got to rescue Faerie!" "Yes, yes, I'll get to it soon."

05:54 * Schism bleps.

05:57 <Schism> One more Li'l Cactus, and then I don't have to worry about missing the remainder.  o3o

06:06 * Ali noms on ConfusionRift ear

06:07 * Schism continues to seek out the remaining cacti. Next bonus: 3x experience from some fights.

06:07 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali. :P

06:07 * Ali leans into ConfusionRift pats, they're on several hours earlier today :P

06:08 <ConfusionRift> Got a ride home.

06:09 <ConfusionRift> I didn't previously, and work... well.. not gonna talk about now right no so HIIIII there. :P

06:09 <Ali> You don't need to talk about the hellscape of retail to me, I know it too well

06:09 * ConfusionRift nods and just huggles Ali instead. :P

06:11 * ConfusionRift feels something on his leg. Checks, then leaves it alone... and then panic swipes a roach.

06:11 * Schism squeaks!

06:11 <Schism> Glad these bonuses will cross over to a New Game+.  >.>

06:11 * Schism also finds her first ??? Seed.

06:12 <ConfusionRift> o_0

06:12 <ConfusionRift> What'chu doin'?

06:13 <Schism> Trials of Mana!

06:13 <ConfusionRift> Aah.

06:13 * Schism considers which of the Mana Beasts she should fight first. "Probably... fire."

06:13 * ConfusionRift isn't familiar, so he was kinda lost.

06:16 <Schism> Hmm.  Well, if I'm going after fire first...

06:16 * Schism stocks up on Undine elemental multipliers.

06:17 * Ali rolls around, kinda wants to play pokemon, kinda doesn't.

06:20 * ConfusionRift rolls with Ali. He too isn't sure if to play or not to play something.

06:31 <Schism> Game, why is there a platforming section in a Mana game.

06:31 * ConfusionRift points at Ultima 8.

06:32 <ConfusionRift> "Why do you have platforming in an RPG?"

06:32 <ConfusionRift> "It's a puzzle." | ...excuuuuse me?

06:37 <Schism> ... OW.

06:39 <Schism> It had somehow escaped my recollection that the 8 God-Beasts are hard.

06:40 <ConfusionRift> They weren't called God-Beasts for no reason.

06:43 <Schism> I know, I know.

06:43 * Schism plants a ??? seed, hopes it hatches into something useful.

06:44 <Schism> Though what I should be doing is getting more cacti.

06:44 * Ali watches it flop out a magikarp onto Schism

06:48 * ConfusionRift was reminded of Ultima 8, and had to see more of that trainwreck.

06:52 * Golden flops.

06:55 <Schism> Hmm.  Fire resist ring.  Well, that might be of some use against this boss -- if I wanted to face them QUITE yet.

06:55 * Schism is going around getting all the treasures from the eight dungeons, including the ??? seeds, in hopes that she can get the class changes she wants.

07:05 <Schism> Hmm.  Do I want to go with the Magus class, or wait until I get the Rune Seer item...

09:05 <Finwe> Ah, not Merkel then.

09:05 <Schism> No, definitely not that Angela.

09:16 <Schism> Four more.  One in Pedda, two in the 'final' dungeon, one before the boss.

09:21 * Schism obtains a flawless victory against the ice boss. o3o

09:22 * Finwe decides to have a bowl of tuna salad today and cook the pasta tomorrow.

09:33 <Schism> Well, fire god went down like an absolute chump, too.

13:09 <Cepheid> Bleh.  Slept terribly.

13:11 <Cepheid> In other news, in line to get my second shot.

13:19 <Finwe> I'm going to get mine on 2nd of August.

13:33 <Cepheid> Aaand done.  Just need to wait 15 minutes then I can leave.

13:41 <Lumindia> gonna be playing some Super Metroid on stream in a bit

13:41 <Lumindia> Which one you get, Ceph?

13:42 <Cepheid> Pfizer.

13:42 <Lumindia> I got that one too. Get any side effects with the first dose?

13:43 <Lumindia> second dose kicked my ass pretty hard

13:43 <Lumindia> was basically a zombie the day after

13:43 <Cepheid> No side effects from the first dose.  At least, nothing serious or debilitating.

13:44 <Cepheid> And yeah, I hear the second dose hits hard.  My mother got zombified for two days herself.

13:44 <Lumindia> first dose for me was just 'general lack of energy'

13:45 <Lumindia> second dose was splitting headache and complete lack of drive to do anything

13:45 <Lumindia> took three two hour naps over the course of the day

13:45 <Lumindia> make sure you have plenty of water to stay hydrated

13:46 <Cepheid> Yep.  I also have an air conditioner to stay cool if I start heating up.

14:00 <Lumindia> http://twitch.tv/yuujin_hiiragi "The last Metroid is in captivity... The galaxy is at peace." That's right, it's time for SUPER METROID! Get your butts in here as I revisit a SNES classic!

14:37 * Cepheid flops on home.

14:42 <Cepheid> Regardless of the job I get, I think my first purchase with a paycheque will be to expand the storage in this laptop.

14:42 <Cepheid> 256GB is too little for my needs.

14:45 <Cepheid> Hum, $250 for 2TB NVMe.  Not bad.  I'll have to keep that in mind.

15:09 <Cepheid> I'm feeling much, much better today compared to the last few weeks.

16:22 <Cepheid> Man, I'll be surprised if I even get an interview with NAVCAN.

16:23 * Schism awakens, yawns, stuffs a pizza in the oven. "Would be a nice surprise, though, to be sure."

16:24 <Cepheid> ... Ow.  Where'd this headache come from all of a sudden?

16:24 <Cepheid> It's too early for the shot to be affecting me, right?

16:24 <Schism> Could just be a normal old headache.

16:25 <Cepheid> Possible.

16:26 <Cepheid> Guess I won't be exercising today then.

16:26 <Cepheid> There, job application submitted.

16:29 <Cepheid> This game's music..

16:29 <Cepheid> The style is familiar, but I can't say from where I've heard it.

16:29 <Cepheid> ...  Hmm.  I want to say Crypt of the Necrodancer.  It sounds like music from that game.

16:30 <Cepheid> It's not the same musician.

22:05 <Finwe> o3o

22:05 <Finwe> Oatmeal porridge?

22:06 <Schism> Indeed.

22:08 <Finwe> I guess you could eat flaked oatmeal without actually cooking it into porridge.

22:08 <Finwe> It would be rather dry, though.

22:08 <Schism> Cookies are a possibility.

22:08 <Finwe> With milk, maybe?

22:13 <Schism> Well, that is a typical choice, yes.  Sometimes rolled oats are used for muesli.

22:19 <Schism> Or of course, oatcakes.  https://www.thespruceeats.com/nova-scotia-oatcakes-2215585
