Dear Diary,

It’s been a while since I’ve written a diary entry. I need to fill you in with everything that’s happened! 

First off, Cycle 37 just started. …Yeah, it’s been a while. I blame myself for having kinda lost this book under my mattress. I mean, I checked under the bed! How the heck did it get under the mattress?

So yeah, a lot of time has passed. 

The most important thing for me is, I got access to fish and rice, along with pre-made sushi and all the stuff Via has. I also got everything for a salad bar, so a couple extra vegetables and things. I got bacon bits, which took the raptors from accepting our existence to being our best friends. Oh, I also got bagels and cream cheese, so I make a kind of blackberry cream cheese ball and roll it in bacon bits, and holy crap do they love those things. But the balls are very not healthy, so those are only for dessert. 

Oh, turns out the wolves love fish, so I’ve been varying their diet more than I did before. I mean, they were getting slightly bored with meatballs every day (who wouldn’t), so now I alternate meatballs and trout, with bacon-wrapped chicken every now and again as a treat. 

Oh! This is important: the ants on floor 98 were swapped with the mosquitoes from the swamp floor! Aya almost had a mental breakdown when she found out, and it took us like a week to make friends with the ex-mosquitoes. They’re still not really our friends, but they allow us to pass through whenever we want to go sled racing on the yeti’s floor. 

Meanwhile, the ex-ants still stick with us and help us out whenever we go up there. 

Oh yeah, the yetis! They’re still weird. But! One of them, Cynoe, really likes dogs. He’s been helping us with our sled races, and I’m 90% sure he has a crush on Mika. Any time we go down to their floor he basically runs over and searches her out. He doesn’t have a key, so he can’t leave the floor to hang out with us, but I think Kimi might give him one soon. 

Keys! How could I forget! So, apparently the players kept doing stupid stuff and losing their keys. So the Admin put keys in Kimi’s shop on cycle 35. We all have keys now, and all the kobolds can get a key if they want one. Cycle 35 was wild, with everyone just wandering everywhere through the dungeon. I’m pretty sure the Admin nearly had a mental breakdown, but it ended ok. 

Wow it feels good to write again. I mean, I wrote all the fairy tales, but that isn’t the same as writing a journal. Writing in a diary is just relaxing. Like, I can turn my brain off and just put one word after another and it’s fine. There doesn’t have to be a plot, and nothing has to make sense. I don’t have to worry about dialogue tags and stuff. Journals are easy. 

But I am tired, so I’ll save the rest of the news for tomorrow. 

Goodnight, Dungeon!
