I am...

1. Building. May have found a purpose now.

4. On the road again with my love, then resuming my tailoring work.
5. A guy sleeping to death.
6. Not sure if she's awake much anymore... sleeping too much myself.
7. Enjoying this series of contests with him.
8. Home at last, waiting to share stories.

[jesperyang]

I am..

..silently, quietly diligently helping her sew, spin, treat, weave all these stuffs.
..chop sleep chop sleep! Ehehe, me love me new hat.
..fascinated. Must. See. This. Stuff ! Still love thw white fluffy stuff better though.
..baffled. I thought I was just suppose to mix it? Wait.. How do you cook these again?
..Riding full speed downhill a mountain road !
..left behind. It's alright. I'm pretty much use to it and I can always come up with something else.
..Slightly disappointed, but still amazed by the scenery. Me here didn't regret this trip.
..making preparations, warm clothes, food and some stuffs. Time is of the essence.
..worried. She woke. Is she alright? Will she be alright? *sighs* I'm so worried about her.
..Keeping guard. Well, manage to polish this thing up quite a bit. It looks new again.
..BACK! Missed this place! And her... *smiles to himself*
..Alone, getting things done. There seems to be nobody to be able to trade to here.
..Intrigued. These two newspawns have shown some minor symptons of I-don't-know-what-yet. Will observe them further to find out. Hm..
..Feeling much better. Wait till I ****ing kill you all, then I'll waltz back to town with the wood. ****ing clowns.
..Starting to let myself be soft. Why? Her. She. Why her? How? What is this. I never smiled this much before. Why am I now?

[miirkaelisaar]

I am...

...finding it hard to believe, but I'm finally not going to be alone anymore, after all these years talking to myself I finally have companions, and maybe a new home in the near future.. I hope... though the last time I left home turned my life upside-down...
...very sick, and I don't know why. It's taking forever to get well again, but I told my friend I want to explore the whole world and see every island there is, though I'm nervous, I've never left the Polish islands and I'm scared, but at least I'm not alone, he's a good friend, I'd go anywhere with him.
...feeling like myself again, finally, though I have my down days still.. the younger crowd sure cheers things up around here though.
...worried about the risk I'm taking, sheltering a person like.. that. But I can't abide by this abomination any longer and no one else would step in... I'm not afraid of anyone anyway, just worried for my comatose citizens, I do have them to think of...
...making unique clothes for my new friends, thinking of making myself some as well, they are certainly very nice.
...blaming myself, even though I told her to knock. I told her to knock if she woke up, I was too tired to keep checking on her... now it's too damn late...
...sad that my friends are sleeping.. why don't they wake up and play with me? I'm lonely...
...beating myself up and being jealous when I have no right.. I knew it was just a one-time thing, I barely even know him, but he made me feel special, he said I was beautiful.. I had no idea he was going to ignore me, now I feel so stupid... and I feel selfish, why do I care? It's not even important... this isn't even like me, what's going on? I want to cry...
...screwing up my life for the hundredth time. Why can't I just DIE already? Oh right, I'm not allowed to, 'cause it's selfish.. I knew he would give up on me though, I KNEW it, that liar, I was never meant to be loved.. I was a fool to try... I hate myself...
...so glad to have an active young trader in the town now, we can finally have nice things! If I tried to go trading I would get lost for sure!
...meeting new people and seeing pretty new things! And helping some stranded friends, boy I'm glad we decided to check! Poor things!
...waking up in a beautiful place full of wonderful people! I'm shy but everyone is so nice! I love being alive, I should have spawned years ago!

[Snowdrop]

I am... busy getting things sorted so we'll be ready to leave. I hope he'll be well enough.

I am... working hard fixing things up, hopeful for future plans...I just hope they're awake now.

I am... making sure there's enough newspawn clothes prepared.

I am... building my home with her help. Not sure how to ask her to share it with me...

I am... not sure what suddenly changed, but...yet another newspawn!

I am... worried. I can't see him anywhere. I can't have returned too late...I'll never forgive myself if I have!

I am... thinking it's time to start putting this stuff I've been collecting from the animals to good use.

I am... surprised they have ignored a dead body for so long. And I'm intrigued by the body itself, she looks so peaceful.

[Chroma Key]

I am...

* happy. I have finally stopped expecting my extremely high standards to be met, and I'm enjoying the buzz and banter instead. I know I'll always be alone even as I am surrounded by them all, but that's perfectly fine.

* brave. Upped and left, about three decades too late, but better late then never.

* mundane. Nothing worth mentioning.

* shooting a bolt at myself every single day. It's a very expensive habit, but it keeps me sane as I grow stronger, my hand constantly polishing my perfection.

* shocked by just how selfish she is. She is as bad as him, and despite their mutual hatred, they are cut of the same careless, self-centred cloth. Neither of them cares about me, and their toxic love is finally beginning to poison me, notwithstanding my best efforts to love them despite all their flaws.

* sailing. Feeling complete after several years, and content with my purpose.

[Otherside]

I am...

- Finally trading for and making everything we ever desired, we'd better start enjoying it.
- Building our mansion in the middle of nowhere, spawning seemingly kinky newspawns?
- Elated that she woke for a day, but now used to her sleeping once more. Contemplating the future... doubting our wedding plans.
- Living a quiet single life, inwardly happy.
- Putting her into words, capturing her on paper.. My teacher, my student, my muse.
- Sailing away.. past where we were supposed to go.. the sunset is ours.
- Dying x8!

[Shedevil]

I am working quietly. I wish he would wake up more, but I will always wait for him to wake.


I am slowly trying to piece my life back together after his death. Its been over a year and I cannot keep losing wieght like this, I know I am scaring everyone.

I am slowly growing tired of being here. He is the only reason I wake up anymore.


I am slowly working on his coat. I wanted to finish by now, but he will be warm. Slowly thinking of our wedding and when I can call myself his wife.


I am so happy he woke up and I get to spend time with him. How can I tell him I am falling in love with him?

[HolyRoller]

I am...

...docked to land on a new island, in a completely uninhabited forest. Guess I'll cut some wood for a new ship. Disappointed, I expected a bustling new world over here.
...pretending to be on a resource run. I'm actually going home.
...coming up with a new name - concealing my identity might be a good idea with all the rumours going around. I think I pissed off the wrong people.
...returning home after a successful resource gathering trip in the mountains.
...sailing away in search of limestone. I wish I could just make a new ship with bronze instead of iron and steel.
...sitting in my new vehicle. I'll make the engine...eventually. This seat is the coziest place I've ever slept.
...finally home from another long trade mission to the main islands. I hope my friend will be awake soon, I missed him.
...in search of limestone on my bike. The lines on the map and the roads don't seem to correspond. Semi-lost.
...almost in my spawntown, after what was supposed to be a great adventure became a 10 year long shit-show.
...wishing carts moved faster, and carried more. I managed to scavenge and awful lot of useful goods.
...sleep/working. Wondering when we're leaving, and I think everyone else here feels the same.
...asleep in a mountain town, speaking every now and again so they know I'm alive. Bored, contemplating my next move.
...so very grateful that I spawned in such a wonderful place. The people here are so helpful, and so friendly. Relishing new experiences.

[destinysWalrus]

I am...

1. Still building my home.
2. Exploring, finally, like I promised myself I would.
3. Almost relieved. I don't blame him for hating me, I hate myself too.
4. About ready to head for home once again.
5. Still sleeping to death
6. Losing the will to wake up... she'll be sad, if she's awake herself.
7. Sewing a lot, too bad I'm not good enough at it for it to be a fun contest.
8. Settling back into home again. Thinking about building a place of my own.
9. Satisfied with my choice. I know what I'm getting into and it is good.
10. A wee sleepy but I havena lost the want to wake up yet.
11. Trying to be cheerful for others, but wishing I could find something I'm good at.
12. Unsure how to achieve my goals. I may need to leave this town for a short time.
13. Finally getting used to these colorful sounds.
14. Delighted! I have a skill that'll be useful.

[Raspberrytango]

I am...

1. Making plans to leave because it's too sad and lonely to stay here anymore.
2. Working on making this strange place my home and so happy for my new friends.
3. Trying to find a way to stay awake in the lonely forest.
4. Tired of the silliness and sleeping more.
5. Being as useful as I can be because I don't want to go back to the life before.
6. Sleeping because there's nothing else to do while we sail.
7. Sailing and finally having fun. I wonder why I didn't think of doing this sooner.
8. Sleeping in another new town but I'll wake up soon. It's just too noisy for visitors to fit it.
9. Enjoying my new friends and happy for a change. I hope we sail for a long time.
10. Intrigued, charmed and amazed by this new guy. Is he real? I should pinch myself so I'll wake up, but I don't want to.

[Snickie]

I am...

...working, working, working, and occasionally making snide remarks.
...planning on finally leaving this place and continuing my exploration.
...wishing people that could actually do something would wake up.
...translating.
...sleepy and also making a few snide remarks.
...wishing [so-and-so] would waaaaake up!
...whacking people with my pillow.

[ObsessedWithCats]

I am...

... working to earn a building. Not yet a home or even a house, but there's always the possibility of that in the future.
... finally starting to gather the oil I came on this whole trip for, and better at it than I expected.
... worried about how quiet everyone is. Feeling a bit more presentable in my new clothes.
... going quietly stir crazy working inside, hoping he wakes up to sort me some outdoor work even if it means some time away.

[BeepBeep]

I am...

...a town leader who is very glad these people came to visit and hopes they stay.
...wondering if they are ever going to come back...have they changed their minds?
...trying to figure out how to tell her I don't feel the same way she does
...watching his muscles ripple while he works and wondering how he can be so perfect in every way.
...still confused by these people, after all these years
...making plans to go on a trip and very excited!
...sleepy
...contemplating death
...wondering why me?
...dying
...Still happy, but wondering why the woman doesn't like me any more. I thought she was my friend.
...learning the way around my new town. They all seem nice..different..but nice.

[Genie]

I am working, all nice...
I am wondering do I have a kind of curse on me, whatever...Life goes on.
I am thinking that he is evil and sweet at the same time,maybe just like me .
I am quite surprised...I didn't know ,nor I was planning. Now I am curious to see what happens as next.
I am working in another town again , few old friends here. Soon I need to move and I must find a better ship.
I am alive,but bored...What is the meaning of staying here?
I am pretty trapped in this place,such a waste for a handsome and strong guy like me.
I am slowly going there, where I have wanted always. No need to hurry,patience is my key.
I am feeling old, funny I lived this long because I had risk of getting killed in my very early ages.
I am finding hard to speak and act,I miss the very old days of my life.
I am sleeping with one eye open.
I am thinking of many things,I am not sure what will happen between her and me.
Why newspawns always sleep? That's boring!

[ColormeGreen]

I am...

...Not so alive anymore. Guilty about causing her to leave, guilty about not wanting to live, guilty about holding the other 'her' up.
...Waiting on our... no, my rock. This bonnet and his painting are the only things worth holding onto. Waiting for the tide to claim my lifeless body.
...Rigging my boat. Many years of work and many more, but it will be worth moving on to better things.
...Wiggling. Working. Wondering. Worrying.
...Wondering why I'm acting on her feelings, and not my own. Perhaps seeing his attempt to kill himself affected me more than I thought. If only I could express it.
...Getting bored. But I guess that's what happens when you build a town up from scratch.
...On my way to work on my dream. If only guilt didn't mean I'd return home eventually.
...Doomed to sailing back and forth since she took my town. Wondering if they will ever come back so I can rig my beauty.
...Travelling home. Wishing he -had- been naughty, but also glad he didn't. Why am I not happy to see my home on the horizon?
...Wishing she hadn't crushed my hopes, eager to a watch future event and satisfy my curiosity, and thinking about him despite her telling me not to.
...Ready to die. I don't even know who I am. I can't remember anything with him sleeping.... life isn't worth living without him.
...Not interested any more, and I can tell he isn't either. What a pointless life I'm living...
...Dead inside. Being different was too much for anyone to handle, and I can't handle the deprivation. The key now is patience while I wait for the final embrace.
...Working on this road. I'll move on when I finally realize I'm so bored I never even think about the future.

I be...
...nearin' th' end of meh promises. 'twill feel strange ta work on meh own things. Trynna ferget they all be leavin' soon.
