Long time no see! We upgraded the IRC to a Discord, but real-time chatter is still a thing that happens.

Oldbie, dipping a foot back into familiar territory... by Herr Wozzeck on 2017-01-29 02:15:00 UTC Reply

...

That sounded much less pretentious in my head.

Anyway, hey guys. It's your friendly neighborhood musician. I've sort of been a vagrant all around the interwebs for the past few years since I left the PPC a couple years back, but... well, I decided to dip my feet back in, see how you guys were doing. And y'all are doing quite well, actually.

So, uh... hi! I think we need some mood music:

There we go. Much better!

It's good to see you're still around somewhat!

Welcome back (again)! by son_of_heaven176 on 2017-01-30 01:35:00 UTC Reply

As a welcome-back gift, here's arguably the best VGM from the best JRPG ever (and I dare anyone to gainsay either claim): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AE0hhzASHwY

*fistbump* It's great to see you again! How's the Library of the Damned?

*fistbumps back* by HerrWozzeck on 2017-01-29 23:23:00 UTC Reply

Library is going okay. I'm taking a brief sabbatical from there for now 'cause I lost the snark mojo slightly, but I should be back soon enough.

And how art thou?

Tired because winter, and working on two missions. by eatpraylove on 2017-02-01 03:14:00 UTC Reply

One's to a confusing MCU fic, and the other's to a cluster... of a Steven Universe fic.

Also, y'know, struggling with the current political situation and my courseload, but what else is new.

I say! You've been gone for *ages*! How are you? :D Seeing you suddenly pop up on Discord was awesome, but I couldn't say hello because I was just glancing in before bed. But it's fantastic to see you back here!

Oh hey thar! by HerrWozzeck on 2017-01-29 23:22:00 UTC Reply

Yeah, it's been weird, but I'm back now. So hello!

Oh, dude! Hi there! by Neshomeh on 2017-01-29 18:45:00 UTC Reply

Good to see you around again. ^_^

I have bad news for Cindy, though: Ilraen's fallen for someone else. Can they still be friends?

Anyway, how are you doing? I see you still like discordant piano music. That second piece could stand at least one less key at a time, IMO. *g*

~Neshomeh

They certainly still can! by HerrWozzeck on 2017-01-29 23:22:00 UTC Reply

I mean, I had kinda fallen off the radar there, so you know how it is. Though that does remind me of a tale of a really terrible person I've encountered across the interwebs. That's a story for another day, though...

And LOL, you think that's crazy, I've WRITTEN discordant piano music in the interim! https://youtu.be/GyDyFUCN_1A

Hi there! by palindromordnilap on 2017-01-29 17:05:00 UTC Reply

I think I vaguely remember your name, but I don't know if I was around back when you were here. Anyway, welcome (back) aBoard! Have this-- Ah, sorry, it seems your returnbie gift never existed. What were we talking about again?

Hope you have a good stay this time 'round!

And I might get into that in a separate thread, because I've been doing a lot outside the PPC.

Thanks!

Ahem. Sorry. Okay, play it cool, Skarm... Anyway, I know we haven't met before, but man, it's good to see you back! I hope you stick around for a while yet - you've been missed by a lot of people around here, I'm sure!

Also, as always for returnbies, have one of my own shed feathers and a complimentary kit of Spikes! :D

Haven't seen you in quite a while, and that. Since we're talking music already, have a nice bit of music. Oh, and a hamster.

Oooh, musical offering. by herrwozzeck on 2017-01-29 14:39:00 UTC Reply

Nice. :3

Thank youse!

Familiar territory, being dipped into by an oldbie... by Larfen J. Stocke, esq on 2017-01-29 08:09:00 UTC Reply

Hello!
Welcome!

Fascinating music, that. As a knowledge-less philistine sort of creature, I've not heard of it or anything like it. Might look more at it.
Also, you mention that you're a musician (also that you're friendly and live in my neighbourhood, but those are besides the point.) What'dyou play, then? Or, er do? Within a musical context?
(You linked piano music. It's bloody piano, isn't it? This is a dopey question, isn't it?)

My gift upon you is: an encyclopedia of birbs and birbkind.
For you to research and find out for yourself what is, objectively, the best birb of them all.

Welcome back! Hope you enjoy your stay and that it's all long and such!

Thanks for the book! by herrwozzeck on 2017-01-29 14:38:00 UTC Reply

As for what I play, I'm actually a violist, though I'm chiefly a composer these days.

And LOL, I have plenty more where that came from. I used to greet newbies with stuff like that.

Oh my... Well, hello returnbie. by Hardric on 2017-01-29 06:22:00 UTC Reply

Please have a bag of black-hole chocolates and a self-updating guidebook of all the deathtraps in the multiverse.

Hope you're back to stay. This madhouse only gets funnier with more people.

AAAAAAAAAAAAA by Mattman The Comet on 2017-01-29 02:54:00 UTC Reply

IT'S YOU OH MY GOD. *Glomp* *Boop*

I hear you're a Kamen Rider fan, so have a Mass-Produced Sengoku Driver, as well as the Durian Lockseed!

The rumors are true: by Herr Wozzeck on 2017-01-29 02:55:00 UTC Reply

I have become a minor Kamen Rider fan. It's only been through two series, though: so far, I've seen the entirety of Ryuki, and I'm currently at episode 40 of Kuuga. I actually have not seen Gaim (which I know is what the Lockseed refers to), but the only other series I've watched anything of is Kabuto. My reaction to that? "SHUT UP, TENDOU!"

Anyway, thanks!

Kamen Rider by Jesa/Waltz on 2017-01-29 03:11:00 UTC Reply

Gaim is Excellent, as are Fourze, OOO, W, Drive, and Ex-Aid.
Ghost is.... ehh... as is Wizard.

One of my closest friends is huge into Kamen Rider. by Herr Wozzeck on 2017-01-29 03:26:00 UTC Reply

He's actually the one I watched Ryuki with, and he's the one I'm watching Kuuga with now. I strangely hear mixed things about Gaim, and... well, the others I'm only vaguely familiar with. It's usually the early Heisei Kamen Rider I know best: later Heisei Kamen Rider is uncharted territory for me.

Except for Kabuto. Which is pretty crap.

I really liked PMMM, so I might give it a swing. We'll see.

Good grief, man! We were wondering where you went!

Welcome back to the party. Nothing much has changed.

I kinda dropped off the radar there... by Herr Wozzeck on 2017-01-29 02:56:00 UTC Reply

...but recent stuffs made me wonder what was happening with you guys. I'd kept up with Nesh for a brief moment after I'd dropped off, but I think this is the first time I've dropped back into the PPC proper.

Thanks!

The glomping was supposed to be my role, dammit! Or maybe it was my role in one of my other communities I've joined since flying around the net.

Thanks for the SPaGhetti! Don't mind if I do!
