Ohhh, so that's what the lion thing means. I got drawn into ARGs after Cloverfield and never saw anything but ads for it, so I didn't know.

The bug is a praying mantis, I think. Anyone know what it's standing on, or what the other stuff in the picture is? The cat's eyes are probly photoshopped, but maybe it's just to make it stand out more.

She added a friend today, Vladimir Alexeev. Is this any of us? Just wondering 'cause he's friends with Tanaka Yori, and probably other characters from VITD. I wouldn't know any of them since I didn't follow the game, but Hans Altmann is a friend of his too. Getting veddy interestink.

Ah, kk. Hmm.

She responded to what I wrote on her wall with this:
Quote:
I am only going because i am curious what 'the biggest megachurch' in america looks like. Plus maybe there will be free food. well maybe not.


And my response back:
Quote:
Church events tend to have food, it's a way of getting people to come and stay. It's easier to preach at someone who's too busy eating to argue, after all. XD So long as they don't have anything gross like sushi, It'll be worth it.


The whole thing with the guy dying from insomnia after eating human-sushi has stuck in my brain permanently now. I blame you guys. At least I thought the stuff was gross before. >.-;;

Did she? I thought of Yori when she said it was her friend in Japan's who died, but I don't know much of anything about past games.

EDIT: Oh, and she says she's had him for three years now, and this game takes place in 2011 - Yori was a character in Con08, right?

The fake Yori said she had a cat, the real Yori had a dog.

I had to go back and check myself. I knew she had one or the other, just couldn't remember which.

Wait wait,

Quote:
I had to go get him in Japan after knowing that it was left homeless after a friends death. Ive had him for almost 3 years now. Most awesome eyes.


What year do we have now? 2011? It could be Yori...
But MrToasty is right: real Yori had a dog, manipulated Yori had a cat.

Btw. my first contact... and more informations from Apollinariya.

I asked her:

Quote:
Cool, I've seen you have been traveled to Russia (Moscow)! I was born in Moscow, but now I'm living in Germany, so I am always glad to know, somebody was in my most beloved city Smile

Btw. do you love "Solaris"? Which one: Tarkovsky's movie or the US-movie?


She answered:

Quote:
I was born in Moscow, but only actually stayed to live there for 2 years.

Ofcourse I love solaris as is the Russian version. lately i saw Sunshine, it was quite good too.


And Zaranai, Vladimir is me. And Hans Altman is... you know... also me, hehe Wink
