That's fine. Thank you for submitting the report. I took a look at it and forwarded it to the developers. If they make the fix quick enough, it should be fixed with a future patch.

[ As always... or at least, most of the time. ]

Was that the result of your confession?

[gluttoning]

Yeah. @ Vogel.

He logged off pretty fast. But I spent the rest of the day sulking over in Fandom Foodies about it. It felt kind of awkward when I came back tonight and suddenly felt normal again. But we already talked about it.

He was the one who suggested I talk to you.

[selfconcept]

I see. It's good that you two worked it out between yourselves.

You don't have to answer if it makes you feel uncomfortable, but I think a greater description will help with locating the bug. Could you tell me how you felt? Physical symptoms? Any thoughts?

[gluttoning]

I don't mind. It helps now that I know it wasn't actually real.

I was fine when I first left the dungeon. We went out the gate at Mac Anu. I saw @ Vogel working on something at a cooking station, and all of the sudden, I felt like he was the most important person in the world. I felt really warm and full and happy, and all I wanted to do was tell him what I felt about him. I remember being excited about it, too. Racing heartbeat and sweaty palms.

After he said no, I was really disappointed. Almost more than that - it felt like something special had just been taken from me. I didn't understand what I'd done wrong. I felt sad like that pretty much the rest of the night.

[selfconcept]

Is this your first time feeling like that?

[ aka has Barrett ever experienced love before outside of the dungeon effect ]

[gluttoning]

Yeah. I think so.

Why?

[selfconcept]

I wanted to know how accurate it would be if you compared it to a past experience.

[ Implying that Hien has also never been in love. He's being pretty clinical about this too... ]

[gluttoning]

It's kind of similar to how I feel for my family. Or for a really good restaraunt. But... a little different.

Richer, I think. Like I'd really found something special that I wanted to treasure just as much as what I already love.

[selfconcept]

Alright. I attached the notes and will also send that over. Thank you for the information.

I hope you can find real love in the future.

[ If that will be all, then Hien won't give another reply. If Barrett wants to continue, he'll keep replying. ]

[gluttoning]

Thanks, Hien. Maybe someday. :-) I'm not in a rush.

A lot of the dungeons have weird curses after they're finished. But I don't want to just write you a bug report everytime something feels funny.

What's normal for the dungeons?

[selfconcept]

You fight monsters, explore the Area, and get a reward at the end.

I've had bug reports for "stupider" things, so feel free to send as many as you want.

[gluttoning]

Are traps normal?

Mithrun1 and I went into one earlier in the week where the reward chest just exploded into splinters on us. Uncomfortable, but I figured trapped treasure is kind of what you can find in games. Now I'm not so sure.

[selfconcept]

Traps are normal. They're supposed to teach you caution.

[gluttoning]

Fair enough.

Okay. I'll leave you to it, then. Vogel has a weird one he might send you a report for later.

Thanks, Hien.

Take care, Mr. Misteaks.
