Darn you guys! I thought I was doing SUCH a good job as the count, how did you POSSIBLY figure out it was me? Man, well I just give up on impersonation from now on. (or not). <_< >_>

I was holding my breath for the update, but then I realized that I'VE HAD GILLS ALL ALONG! And I'm out of duct tape to cover them with so I guess I'll just have to keep "breathing" for now.

Terribly sorry, I spent all of yesterday on a day-trip to NY (it's not close to where I live) to help Gramma move. But it's up now.
Hate me yet?

Not yet, but *shakes fist*
And you can stop the fist shaking if you make me a cake! A cake on cookies!

Well, remember guys, you aren't actually pregnant...and that creeping feeling that something is growing in you like an intestinal parasite is just psychosomatic. (Unless you ate some undercooked pork.)
Oddly enough, a cookie/cake thing was what I had for a birthday cake! I can whip that up...BUT HOW TO GET IT TO CALIFORNIA?!

Here's what you do. First, put wheels on the cake. Second, put a winding key in it and turn it.... a lot. Then, pull the key out and it'll go! Vroom! And in about an hour (cakes move fast), it'll be here!
Oh, and I don't mind if the cake says "Happy Birthday Amy" on it. I'll still eat it.

(Unless you ate some undercooked pork.) Squall is, of course, completely unable to discern reality, so whether or not he's actually pregnant is of no consequence to him. He'll act the same either way. One of the nice things about writing him: I don't have to fact-check. Facts are irrelevant!

INDEED!!!!
WE'RE NOT PLAYING "FINAL FACTUALITY"
By the way, Final Factuality is a very boring, very pedantic game.
"You received a sword that increases your strength by five!... Actually the sword has no effect on your physical strength, it in fact takes physical strength to wield it. I suppose if you swing it around enough you could build up your arm muscles, but that's not really the primary use for the sword. It IS pretty sharp though, a little sharper than your old sword, so you might want to equip it. We should really change the name of the "strength" stat to the "sharpness of sword" stat, because that's much more accurate. But then that rules out blunt weapons, and those, while not being sharp, are certainly still useful. Maybe we could have an "effectiveness of weapon" stat. Yes, that sounds good. This sword has an effectiveness of five, which directly correlates to its sharpness. But hmm... don't size and material also play a role? Maybe we should..."
At this point the player eats the controller and dies. No one's ever finished the game or even the first dungeon.

I once taught a person who doesn't know how to read to play video games. He beat Final Factuality, thinking it was a fun game. Unfortunately, since I couldn't be around to watch (else I may kill myself in the process), I have no idea how it actually went.

Interesting. I'd heard rumors of feral children and blind people successfully completing the game without killing themselves, but it never occurred to me that illiterates could manage as well. You'll have to ask him how it ends.

Unfortunately, he has no idea. There was apparently a lot of text, PRESUMABLY stating facts that lead up to... other facts... about the game and the history and why your character is, in fact, on his factual quest of factination. Since he wouldn't have been able to read it all, he wouldn't have been able to explain what was going on. Mind you, I would imagine it would be boring enough for one to, well... you know, eat the controller and die.
I wonder if a literate person would be able to play if first he sowed his mouth shut and was therefore unable to choke and die on the controller.
