A Warrior's Virtue -- Or, in other words, I'm pulling through somehow
In lieu of creatively writing the crap out of my IRL adventures, I'll just keep this simple. The day before yesterday, I had another falling out with both my parents, all because I was having absolutely no luck panhandling at gas stations, not that I even wanted to in the first place, of... -
A Cryptic Communication Enforced by... A riddle? #Psi #Aloe
The King of Beggars finds himself walking off the sprains (figuratively) of skirmish on the battlefield. As he reached his recovery, thank God, his stressed mind conjures a riddle to combat the dastardly effect of miscommunication. Mercury / / / Metal Venus / / / Nature Jupiter / / / Centurion... -
Oasis Stories: Violet's Heart of Darkness
Even within the miraculous, breathable depths of the Oasis ocean... Still here, there is a noticeable trace of anger. Nobody ever said the Oasis was ever perfect; nobody there is perfect, either, not even dear Aloe herself, not even her little brother Vera, not even Flan, the lowly tortoise...- UberScout

My return to ARGs
As my family and I sit in a hotel room lying in wait for a new home, I have been mostly sleeping in, occasionally smoking with a friend or two, and today I come to realize I am, not really wasting time per se, but more or less just sitting around being bored. And I don't want my God awful...- UberScout

How do you guys feel about my recent text adventure posts?

Recently you guys may have seen that I've been yapping a lot about my recent text adventure phase, it's been hitting really strongly as of now.

Inform 7: Why is returning to my projects so difficult? (Motivation block?)
As we all know, I am a hobbyist-level IF author, I work in Inform7 (I7) as my main hobby because writing is probably my most creative strong suit, and being able to *play* my writing is even better. I feel almost like a creative... god writing in I7, I can add whatever I want to anything a... -
Something WEIRD happened while I was sleeping (again...)
Last night I was having a dream where I was walking back to my house after the sun was going down. For some reason I was walking back from town. When I got back and got up to my room I noticed there were strange portraits on my walls, I couldn't make out their faces. There were candles around me... -
That Time I Reality Shifted To Anime & Came Back With The Same Effects
A.K.A. "Hey!! I Went To Another World x Jiheisho na Keissho Story" Be advised: This story contains the mention of and reference to the use of metaphysical/quantum physics forces such as psionic/psychic powers, reality shifting, and other forms of metaphysical "pastimes". I do not claim to be an... -
I think my spirit animal might be either a dolphin or a snake, not an otter
I was born in February, and I remember seeing a book at a Fall festival about spirit animals by birth month, mine is apparently an otter. However, on good days I've often felt really bubbly and excitable like a dolphin, and of course on the many many bad days I have I feel reclusive and sneaky... -
Panic attack while sleeping? Night terrors? Sleep paralysis?
Last night a very peculiar thing was happening while I was sleeping. I cannot for the life of me remember if I was dreaming this when it happened or if it was real, but for whatever reason I felt my heart beating REALLY FAST. And I don't mean like "bmfbmfbmfbmfbmfbmf" or how some people would... -
A riddle
Nourish your heart, and it breeds love. Embrace your heart, with someone else's and it sends back passion. Belittle it, and it starts to cry. Make it a circle, and it will cry every day. Say nothing but scorn to it, and when it stops crying, the tears become flames. What will happen if you keep... -
Announcing Adventurelib Anthology(a.k.a. Python Anthology), a collection of text adventures by me, written in Python 3
Good evening Autismforums, it is 11:16 PM where I live and I've just had my routine "keep myself from fantasizing about brutally murdering people for no reason" medication (as well as some shake I had laying around for added effect :P ), and a few songs and videos I love On the good old Tube... -
Writing/Playing Text Adventures as a form of therapy
You guys know me and my love of interactive fiction. I'm always talking about the stuff :P and I even discussed IF to my therapist and like many things I've shown her she agrees it's a useful coping tool. I've found peace in both writing and playing IF games, it doesn't always work for most... -
My entire life feels so much like an ARG that I have decided to resume Vague Reality
BE ADVISED: This post is rather brief because I have been suffering burnout for obvious reasons, an ARG is an Alternate Reality Game in which the game takes place in the real world and is played by finding and solving clues, gathering evidence from or for game elements and essentially trying to... -
Building a customized "ninja kit" for my training, need help :/
I know this isn't the place to ask about this kind of thing, but I've gotten pretty serious about having ninjutsu be a part of my daily life as Maddog has tried to escalate me and get a rise out of me like usual and as I noticed I handled it much better due to my training, this thought has made... -
How i am incorporating real Ninjutsu into my schedule and daily life as anxiety control
Ninjutsu -- if you are familiar with the term you may have become so through Naruto, where various hand seals are used to lob bolts of electricity, summon golden dragons and fox spirits, and make copies of oneself. I have talked about things like various forms and divisions of kuji-in and kuji... -
Visualizing life as a "slice of life" anime
I've talked about anime, and it's been part of a topic about coping skills before. Gamification has also played a role in my life and it has helped me grow a lot too, believe it or not (if you're not caught up, gamification is when you take your daily schedule and apply game logic to it to trick... -
Moths are drawn to me??
I'm not sure why this happens to me but I used to scared of moths as a kid because I used to think they were some kind of nocturnal wasp or hornet or something (I didn't realize they don't really hurt people), nowadays I don't really get scared, just startled. But whenever it's night time, at... -
*Possible Trigger Warning* I think I know why I constantly think about suicide during meltdowns
It's not like it's coming from nowhere. I've talked about my uncle and aunt before and how they sort of Kickstart my PTSD. And I've talked about being bullied at school and my aunt constantly hazing me with a belt (remember: she was like 70 and had a brain tumor, and I remember hearing the kind...
