Dirk makes simple network tags take like an entire hour for 325 words of actual content, about 1/4 of which is the background of 'looking a gift horse in the mouth' and his opinion of the children's classic 'Black Beauty.'
It is now time for me to backread a bunch of Doc Scratch shit so I can correctly nail one (1) tag, I cannot WAIT for these specifics to be more second nature to me but also hhhhgghh these tags to Jane holy shit I love JANE
Me: playing Dirk, doing excessive research for individual tags for Dirk, spends hours of my day combing the internet for Dirk content that doesn't rub me the wrong way Me: I LOVE JANE
One: she's right and she SHOULD say it and Two: the more she forces him to deal with her, the more his oversized ego/superiority complex means he's going to end up spilling. He's exactly like the shitty anime villain he styles himself to be in that regard. By which I mean he's exactly like Doc Scratch. He just can't not tell you how much better he is.
In about a week it's going to be really obvious to him that he doesn't feel quite the same flavour of consistently horrid as usual and that's gonna freak him out (but it's actually a good thing, it's because he's not ascending more towards his actual Ultimate Self and his self-containment system isn't in as constant a state of overflow)
Good lord every plurk I type has so many words in it THIS IS WHY I PLAY DIRK I am similarly incapable of not using twelve words when like four would work fine
Also though he only started with a pack of like, trail mix iirc....... and he didn't wait around. So I'm sure he's sleeping but eating is a little bit of a bottom priority until he gets to Cherrygrove (I think it's Cherrygrove, I'm on my phone) and then he will eat basically everything his body can hold and take the world's LONGEST shower.
He's definitely gonna plan better for the next stretch of road but, he's so used to being fucking immortal and also has really bad dietary habits anyway, I have to figure out what "planning better" looks like with his priorities.
If it was clearly from Mom, he'd have to decide between his extremely negative reaction to Mom and his enthusiasm for the idea of eating a real bento just like in his anime
Dirk wouldn't know good food if it slapped him across the face, but he is absolutely going to be trying to eat as much Japanese food as possible now he's here.
Confession: Nihkee is one of my favourites from Friendsim. She's just really wholesome? But also she's terrifying and loves her muscles so it works out well. (This Machop is not NAMED Nihkee, I haven't come up with a name yet.)
I'm not gonna make very many of Dirk's Pokemon like the Trolls from Friendsim because that's a little? Weird? But Nihkee Machop was really too good to pass up. Also Nihkee is underappreciated and I love female machamp as a concept.
Me: I LOVE JANE
But also listen Jane is the superstar here,
I'm glad he's prone to...This
