Nesso, the AI, rolled up in its telepresence robot to stand next to where Jacob was working. ::Jacob, do you ever wish things could go back to the way things were before?::
Jacob looked up from his computer. "Before the team and I found out we were characters in a sci-fi series, and that you and we were all written by the same person?"
::Yes::
Jacob gave that some thought. "No, I don't think so. It was fun building silly contraptions like gumball machines to dispense your daily meds, but now..."
::Wait - you never built that::
Jacob frowned. "You're right - I didn't, but it sounds like something I would do. Where DID that idea come from?" He thought for a moment. "Nesso, did Author keep a list of story ideas?"
::Yes::
"Is the gumball machine there?"
A pause. ::Yes, it is::
"So, I can 'remember' stuff in that document?"
::Apparently::
"Hmm. What else is in that document?"

The guards have come off!
I finished painting what I'm calling the "inner boarder" of the piece I'm building, so I removed the painting guards. Things are gettin' real!

"Author, are you there?" Antonio waited a moment and tried again. "Author?" It wasn't like him to just not respond like this.
Maggie stepped around the corner. "Everything all right, Antonio?"
The two of them were part of a software team that discovered they were characters in a series of sci-fi stories and could communicate with their own author, but they were still working out the details.
"No - one minute Author and I were chatting about motorcycles, and then he just stopped responding."
"Author," Maggie tried. "If you can hear us, can you give us a sign?"
After several long seconds, they both became aware of the familiar voice in their heads, _/Sorry about that - I'm back/_
"Oh, good! That's a relief!" Antonio relaxed. "What happened? Could you hear us?"
_/Yes - I went to look up a stat on the Suzuki, and your story window went to the background. I could hear you, but you couldn't hear me/_
Antonio laughed, "Author, you're on mute!"

This is my first experience with Tamiya masking tape, and the stuff is just amazing. I needed to tape off this gentle - and thin - curve, and Tamiya understood the assignment.

_/Hey, that was interesting. Say that again Enzo/_
"Say what again, Author? 'Ha-ha'?" Enzo asked.
_/Yeah - that shows up as a laughing face emoji on my laptop/_
Enzo was part of a six-person software team who discovered they were characters in a sci-fi series, and later discovered they could talk with their own author, and were (mostly) carefully testing the boundaries of that link.
"If saying 'ha-ha' shows up as an emoji for you, what if you typed an emoji back?" Enzo asked.
_/Well, try this/_
Just then, the entire team dropped to the floor, laughing and crying. After a moment, they all stopped and slowly climbed back into their chairs, confused.
"Author, what did you use?" Maggie asked.
"If I had to guess - the roll-on-the-floor-laughing emoji," Jacob responded with a smirk.
_/Interesting - I never used those in my stories before/_
"Fortunately for us," Enzo retorted.

In a classic Doyle tale, Sherlock Holmes could tell a man was a drunkard by looking at his pocket watch. If the winding keyhole had scratches around it, the man would miss a few times when he went to wind it, scratching it, and therefore was intoxicated.
In at least one modern version ("Sherlock"), it was scratches around the charging port of the man's phone.
What would Mr. Holmes conclude about virtually the entire population after examining the state of the USB ports on our laptops?

"Author, where did you store our stories?" Reggie asked. He and the team were trying to figure out how they - sci-fi characters - became self aware. They were currently exploring the limits of the communication channel with their own Author.
_/On my laptop initially, and then backed up to the cloud/_
"Ok, so you could access them from a second device?"
_/I suppose so - why?/_
"Let's experiment by you keeping this chat up, and opening one of the stories on your phone."
_/Ok, hang on/_
After a moment, Author came back with, _/Done - now what?/_
"Does it sound any different to you? Does it sound any - does it soUND - DOES IT SOUND ANY DIFF - DOES IT SOUND"
"AUTHOR, CLOSE THE DOC ON YOUR PHONE!" Sophia yelled over the feedback.
Silence.
"Would you call that a SUCCESSFUL experiment, genius?" Jacob asked, taking his hands down from his ears.
"It was quite intriguing and I never want him to do it again," Reggie responded.

I'm working through bins of hardware, trying to combine what I already had with a trove my Dad gave me.
Interestingly enough, I found that sorting it tickles the same part of my brain that working on a jigsaw puzzle does.

My second attempt to record me drawing. I have much better lighting in the shop, so I think this will work.
There's something about this setup that seems - familiar.

TFW you need to draw something for the audience, gravitate toward your whiteboard, and immediately find yourself tumbling down a rabbit hole trying to chase away that one last shadow with limited lighting.
I could try to fit yet one more piece of equipment on my desk, or I can reconsider my drawing medium entirely.
