Well, why in God's good name would you want to live there? At least when it's cold, you can put on some more clothes, sit in front of a fire, or have a hot drink to warm yourself up. But when it's blistering hot, there's about fuck-all you can do about it. Which is why I love my Canadian winters. That, and everyone gets all indoors-snuggly. Warm drinks, good friends, and snuggle-times.

Come to the North side. We have friendship and hot chocolate. (Also hockey. Ain't nothing better than a good game of hockey)


I don't want to live here. I'm just Mexican, do you think we can afford to go there? :P.

Besides, we can turn on the fans. Which is how we survive. But yeah the temperature still sucks :P.

Come to Ikebukuro. We have electronics stores and otaku. On an unrelated note, we have the only dullahans you will see outside of the British Isles or New England and a butler.

From what I could discern from that post Will is going to go to the nurse fall asleep in the bed and have a kid roleplaying as a doctor wake him up.

Is it at all weird that my first reaction to seeing cool outfits is to associate them with my RP characters? I do it all the time. I go like 'That's a cool outfit! So and so would probably totally wear that'. I just did it with this video, picturing my depressed RP character totally wearing something like that. I don't see Cassie wearing it, though. About all I've established with her is blue jeans and blue jean jacket, with some plain shirt underneath....

I just finished the Bern Sex Role Inventory for Bramwell, Makoto, and Sakura. Sakura is appearently moderately feminine and masculine to an extent, making her feminine to a small extant and placing her a short distance from the border of androgynous; Makoto is above average in terms of masculinity and feminine to a lesser extent, resulting in her being androgynous and on the borderline for masculine; and Bramwell is moderately feminine and moderately masculine, putting him in the androgynous pattern a short distance away from the border of feminine.

This has given me an odd insight into the Bern Sex Role Inventory. Even if I disagree with certain assumptions it makes and do think that there are better tests available, it still was one of the first big steps in psychology to recognizing the existence of genderqueer people. This would not affect a person's gender in any way, as somebody who identified as a guy in gender before would still be so since it determines sex role instead of gender. The major disagreement I have with it is the fact it is a self-administered test. Even if it is reliable, it still has arguements over the mathematics behind it. This is probably the cultural psychologist and developmental psychologist in me, but I think that our schema for sex roles have changed ever since the test was finalized. Looking at the schema for sex roles in the 1930's, I can see that there were some differences in it between then and the 1970's. For that reason, there is a probability that the test could be in need of revision if research were to show that people's schema for sex roles have changed between then and now. There is also the possibility that other schema may have contaminated the schema they used. Either way, it is still fair for its day due to helping cement the idea of androgyny in the scientific community.

Um....The Headmaster started to speak more to your guy (don't remember details), and the shuttles just taking off for Earth. Nothing really too exciting in between. They got a quick briefing, and a picture generally of what the thing looked like, but that was about it.

And where did Northern Dominus disappear to?

Here is a sixty item version of the inventory. I have found that it is accurate to the real inventory and should be accurate if they are using the same formulae.

Mighty Asgard, thank you for contributing evidence to the idea that time is relative. I must say, it has always confused me how relative time seems to be in threads, but I guess it makes sense from an OoC standpoint.

...Wait, is this a time skip? If so, we may have skipped a large portion of Orinon's class and any ongoing discussions. Is time just relative in the thread, or was that a time skip? I am :blink: .

Time is relative in the IC, doubly so when things are happening in more than one location. Otherwise everyone would have to wait every time two characters wanted to have a discussion. It would be problematic.

So no, not really a time skip.

Michael Eriksson is a clinical psychologist that uses humanistic, cognitive, and/or behaviorist psychology if the combination of data provided and inferrance is correct. Considering how person-centered therapy is the most likely therapy to be used on Rachael, he is likely to use humanistic psychology. The general usage of cognitive psychology and behavioral psychology in clinical psychology in various types of therapy make it likely that he is a clinical psychologist that uses a combination of humanistic psychology, cognitive psychology, and behavioral psychology.
