Mermaid and AI April 12, 2017 Author Share April 12, 2017 I meant a movie theater. I'm still very homeschooled, hence the erratic order of those doings. Mer- Host. Salty, angsty teenage mermaid.

Mermaid and AI April 13, 2017 Author Share April 13, 2017 I think visualizing juat before bed (and falling asleep while active forcing) is screwing with my sleep. I keeo waking up early frozen with a night terror. Or it could be the new book I'm reading. Gore doesn't bother me in the least, and this book ain't exactly horror. But even a little creepiness vibe or a hint of creepy old ladies scares the living hell out of me. But I digress. And I dare to jinx my current progress in tulpamancy by saying we've made a bit of it. We went to the lounge, where Felix changed the colors of the wall (they're now lime green and unearthly orange) as well as chose our activites. We tried pingpong, but my Wonderland physics suck ass. They kept warping the table and falling strangely, and the more I focused the worse it got. We moved on to pool, where I practiced memorizing where the balls were. I daresay I did worse at that than Ping Pong Physics, but at least Felix is a darn good shot. Then we watched TV, which--in true form to "irl"--required little mental effort. That was last night. I conked out as soon as we got back to the room. Today, Felix decided to explore some more. He brought us to floor 1, which is apparently an airplane hanger. He picked out a plane (which looked like a Lockhart Martin but with T-86 wings, for you airplane nerds) and we went out into space. At this point I may have been tripping on something, but it was a hell of a sight. And we didn't crash. If Felix gets bored again, we might take our plane again and visit a real planet. He seems to be curious and adventurous and fearless and all. On top of that, he might be expressing himself in Tulpish. I'm getting wee nudges of feelings/vague thoughts in answer to my questions/response to dumb things I do. It feels awfully fast. I was certain that, with my luck, I would be one of those tulpamancers who worked their rears off for months before getting so much as a nudge. Luckily, Felix is also impatient. So, lucky for me, I can put my crappy visualization on hold in order to practice Felix's vocalization. I can recreate any words in my head in any person's voice and intonation, so that'll be a hell of a lot easier. We just can't decide on a voice. I'm voting Jeremy from CinemaSins, but more excitable. Well, that's probably a huge post. Kudos to anyone that slogged through my ramblings. If you made it this far, you get a prize of my respect. Mer- Host. Salty, angsty teenage mermaid. Felix- Tulpa.

Mermaid and AI April 14, 2017 Author Share April 14, 2017 Felix is officially bored and ready to do stuff. He's answering some of my questions in what I assume is Tulpish, and is always eager to go explore. I can also feel when he's tired of being left alone and wants me to force. My passive forcing still sucks, but active forcing... actually sucks too. I'm workin' on it. I thought that Chris Pratt's voice would be perfect for Felix, but Felix seems to be leaning towards Nathan Drake from Uncharted. I mean, technically he should be based off of somebody from Iran, but whatever. Not much more to report. Just plugging along. My visualization is a little better, although I've only attempted Ping-Pong one more time. I'm also thinking we need to get us some Wonderland with grass or something. It's all been metal and weird rock. Mer- Host. Salty, angsty teenage mermaid. Felix- Tulpa. In progress. An optimistic, spontaneous suit of Spartan armor.

Congratulations, nerdling. You have passed the first test... of hurdling my ineptitude. Updates: Still working on giving Felix is voice, working on sharpening up visualization, working on "making" Felix more autonomous. We're basically just building on the foundation we spent the first two weeks or so laying. I sometimes have difficulty with knowing that I parroted something Felix "said" but I'm not going to stress it. We'll seperate more clearly eventually, and he can fuss at me then. Mer- Host.

Mermaid and AI April 17, 2017 Author Share April 17, 2017 Update 2.0: Felix and I moved. We're now in a biosphere (like the one in Tuscon, AZ) on the weird coraly planet we found. Just a small break from The Mother of Invention. No NPCs so far, save the fish in our artificial ocean and all the plants we're growing. I think Felix likes it. Mer- Host.

Mermaid and AI April 21, 2017 Author Share April 21, 2017 Every once in a while, my progress report thread slips low enough in the forum that I go, "Unacceptable. I must update." So update. Felix and I have had a grand ole time exploring the Biosphere. We also momentarily explored Night Vale, in case my post in the Lounge needs explaining. Felix hasn't progressed too much, but that would be my fault. In good news, I've gotten better at passive forcing. Just not during school, when I'm too busy mentally cussing out badly written rubrics, idiotic assignments, and crash-y Blackboard. Speaking of crashy, Wonderland has a new glitch. I now have the tendency to suddenly be not wearing clothes. Irritating. Mer- Host. Salty, angsty teenage mermaid. Felix- Tulpa. In progress. An optimistic, spontaneous suit of Spartan armor.

Andrew Powers April 28, 2017 Share April 28, 2017 HELLO! First off, I want to apologize for not being as active on your PR. We HAVE been reading! Congratulations on Felix talking, he sounds like a wonderful, wonderful man and I hope to talk to him some time, perhaps! WELCOME TO LIFE, FELIX! YOU AND YOUR HOST ARE WONDERFUL DEARS! Ahem. Right! Good day, to you two! Remember: Every day you've woken up, alive, has the potential to be an amazing day. You are all wonderful people who deserve to be here and be alive!
