Headsups and apologies incoming. I'm sure, by now, you are all tired off hearing this. I know I would be in your place. But, can't be helped.

I need a short break. I'm a little broken right now. Honestly hard to make it through an eight hour day when you have to hide your tears every ten minutes.

I know a couple people here that are going to blame themselves, people I've talked to today. So please believe me when I say it wasn't you. It is just the build up of a lot of things, and the main source of my current spiral of depression is my inability to sleep at night lately.

To Gem, Adramma, and Dahl, with whom I still have at least one or two collabs, I promise I will be able to do them on Sunday, which I have off, along with Monday and Wednesday (thank you, Labor Day... or whatever Monday is).

As for the next season things, I'll work on them today and tomorrow during my free time.

Finally, in regards to that in between events that some of us having been talking about. I am trusting Adramma, Gem, and Marine to work together and sort it out. I am confident that, if you are open minded and patient, you'll sort it out. But if you can't, don't worry about it, I'll work on it when I return.

Take as much time as you need. If you need to talk about non-RP stuff, I'm here for you.

Yep. And that's fine. Honestly, my things with Atka and Modya will be somewhat long, so I'll let other people go first. If you need to take your break before you and I finish, that's alright. People will just have to wait awhile to see how things turn out with my two main characters.

Might not be back until 7 or 8 central. We will still do that collab if you are up for it, Frost. Just need to make sure we don't take too long:

Zombs. I have a question about the Alien bios.

So... How do the Yorin mate exactly and where do the Yorin children stay when they're growing up? Inside the host? Or outside in some kind of breeding pool like thing?

When new generations of Yorin need to be made, two mature Yorin come together, meld in a kind of symbiotic metamorphosis, and after a period of about a week, the melded being separates into four newborn Yorin.

They then stay in the special nutrient pool until they are strong and mature enough to leave, with the newborns sharing the left behind hosts, though they can usually produce some more hosts by then.

I'll keep this think tank up, but soon we'll move on to think tank 3, the XSDF think tank that I'll create. Just keeping this for epilogues, and will probably end it when we reach 350 pages.

Alright, I'll answer any questions still remaining for you guys once you finish reading, then I'll nod off.

Skimming through right now, but the one thing that does catch my eye is that you listed Xenon as part of the composition of alien alloys. Now, I'm no chemist, but if I recall correctly, xenon is a noble gas, which are a group of elements known for being incredibly resistant to forming compounds with other elements. I also believe that the only known compounds to contain xenon in them are all with fluorine (such as xenon hexafluoride [XeF6]), oxygen (such as xenon dioxide XeO2]), or oxyfluorides (you probably get the point by now). An additional google search reveals that it also bonds with - in certain circumstances - carbon, boron, and possibly gold.

Just wondering if you guys had any explanation for this inconsistency.

I specifically chose a noble gas to show how the Tz6 could combine weird things. That's the only reason. I'm not going DEEP SCIENCE with that. (Was meant to give an aspect of lightness along with the aluminum. Its more wizardry than science)
