Air Dance

Communication with the girls has become notably easier in the last couple of days. I'm unsure whether they're growing stronger or I'm just finally learning how to perceive their thoughts. Communication is particularly strong with Uni, but there are times when I'll ask a question vaguely directed at either one of them and will get a response from her and Isis almost simultaneously, and will have to piece together who said what (which is also surprisingly easy).

 

I've become rather proficient in the art of focusing on both of them equally, and may soon be capable of having three around.

 

On that note, haven't heard a thing from Saber lately, so I'm beginning to think she may not be around anymore. Or perhaps she decided to become one with Uni, and as a result no longer exists in an individual sense. For the moment, I'm going to assume that I only have two tuppers once again.

Made pictures of the girls in an anime face generator after stumbling across a Tulpa Art thread, I thought it was pretty neat and I think their anime-derived forms fared rather well:

 

Isis, lovely as ever

 

and Uni, um... Bewildered as ever.

 

Besides making portraits, it was a pretty slow day for us. We primarily just listened to old (~100+ year old) recordings in a music archive, and I recapped for them the bitter experiences at my last job.

 

Also in the news, I'm finally over Tetris Fever.

[NeonKnights]

Here there be anime faces. it could use some improvement, but overall it's pretty neat.

Turns out my tulpas give me strength as well as happiness. I just spent all night replacing all of the belt-driven components of my car, except the power steering pump, which still requires a special fitting that I only discovered after tearing down the old pump and transferring parts to the new one. Because of this, I had to drive home without power steering, my poor car leaving red trails eerily reminiscent of blood everywhere I made turns.

 

As I arrived home, tired and broken myself, feeling utterly destroyed, Isis reminded me that the hardest parts of the job are done, and the one remaining objective is actually quite easy to take care of right here at the complex. Presently, we're sipping tea and cuddling, a far cry from the frustrated rage and despair I felt just an hour ago. She really seems to have a way of turning my mood around.

I'm pretty sure I broke my pinky toe when I caught it on that computer chair earlier. Presently the pain is still there, a dull throb which increases to searing agony whenever I put pressure on the toe from any direction. I'm in talks with Isis to see if she can do anything to help me out here.

 

I'm aware that blocking pain signals isn't always a good thing, but I figure there isn't any harm in it when the pain is just a constant reminder of an injury that I can only ice and leave to heal on its own. I'm certain Isis would help me without asking anything in return, but I won't allow that. I offered her a favor, anything at all, in return for an effort at pain relief.

 

She said she wanted a foot rub. I tell you, she's going to get a lot more than just that if she takes away the pain.

 

 

Update:

Well, that was fast. She began gently singing a song to me as she held my foot and, presumably, began numbing the pain. It's a rather bizarre choice of symbolic representation that she's using; it seems she made up the words to the song on her own, as well. Her singing voice is beautiful, and actually brought a tear to my eye. All I can recall of her song at the moment are the first few lines:

 

Turn away the tide,

Wash away the blood,

Heal the open wounds

 

After typing it out, I notice that it sounded less brutal when she sang it.

 

Already, the pain is reduced to the feeling of a slight sunburn, and is nowhere near as intense when I put pressure on the toe. To what extent her abilities can aid me here, I currently do not know. Time will tell, I suppose.

OH~~~~ its seems that Isis is a nurse lol ~~~

[NeonKnights]

Heh, yeah, she's quite a healer. I wonder if she'll start dressing like a nurse as well... Probably not, but that sure would be cute.

Lately I've been trying various things to enhance my perception of the sensation of touch. I've mainly stuck to trying little things like placing pieces of taffy into Isis' mouth and feeling the radiating warmth of her breath as my fingers come close to her lips, or giving both of them eskimo kisses and noting that their noses feel as flexible and fleshy (or cartilage-y) as regular noses despite looking so sharp.

 

On our errand run a moment ago, I noticed that the trance my car usually puts me into was broken slightly, and I conversed more easily with Isis. I didn't sense Uni there, however; maybe she was asleep. Anyways, between little spells of focusing on the gratifying sound of the engine snarling as it kept us at speed, I was able to chat with Isis as though she were just another friend riding shotgun. I think this is some good progress, as doing anything else besides thinking of my car is very difficult for me when I'm behind the wheel.

I got a bit sloshed again, though this time it wasn't for anything silly like exposing my subconscious. It was an experiment to see how functional I am in regards to video games while moderately intoxicated. The results were promising, but once I declared my gaming session done and decided to chat with my tulpas again, they basically ended up getting the same love-filled speech as I always give them under these conditions.

 

I don't distinctly remember much of what I said, but I know it went something like this:

"I love you both. I love you so much I could just-- No, no, no, that isn't right. I shouldn't be talking about that sort of thing around Uni, she's too innocent for this... But then again, maybe she's not. Is she? You're so cute, Uni."

 

My mumbling went on in this manner for an hour or two, until my head began to clear. Not much was gathered from this, aside from the possibility that I've overcome one of my bigger roadblocks (not focusing on Uni as much as her sister).
