Yeah, guess who is back from camping and hiking? Climbing up rocks right beside a waterfall is fun. Being eaten alive by mosquitoes as soon as you veer away from said waterfall made it easy for me to decide what my favourite spot in the forest was.
No, I did not see the resident Eldritch Abomination there. There were no freaky cults, no blood sacrifice, and they even gave me my hoodie back when I left it at the food court. The worst crime that happened was a woman stealing a watch from Canadian Tire. Pretty damn idyllic, in my opinion.
Given I left you guys with a joke that apparently pissed at least one person (Blanche) off, I apologize for robbing you of the chance to call me a fucktard. No, I am not infected or sick or coughing or seeing tall pale faceless people in swanky suits. Also, I apparently killed someone thanks to being at camp. Sorry about that.
For those interested in what I actually did: campfires, s'mores, the works. I also played a bit of my Nuzlocke and a shitload of Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time. I forgot that it had a plot. I forgot that its plot was fucking amazing. Cue me being glued to the DS for days on end.
Yeah, that's it.
Oh, and Tezca was very happy to see me when I came back. We hung out yesterday after the drive. Even though I was totally exhausted, we managed to have fun~

Introspective
Because reading weird-ass stories on the Internet put me in a weird-ass mood.
I mean, seriously, creepypasta? That's my treasure hunt? It's not holy literature or a classic or anything of the sort. But I can see what she's getting at, really. A lot of focus on old Fae myths - iron, salt, the like. Water, trees, fire. The distortion stuff, the static, the symbol and what it means.
Fuck my dignity, it's actually kind of cool.
I mean, there's weird Wicca stuff all over, from some blogs, and then some classic government conspiracies, and heavy science and military stuff....
Perception filters, lightning guns, magic circles - it's like a convention.
Anyways, not here to talk about that, fun as it is. I'm here to talk about myself a bit while I snoop around.
So, yeah, Quetzal, the mythology-obsessed nerd. I like ARGs, needling people, having a good laugh.... What can I say? Trolling is fun, too, though I try to keep it intelligent and not "NO U". The world needs more snark. Original snark, though, not something stupid like calling everyone a faggot. That's the most tired attempt of irritating people, really.
I have a dog, and a rabbit. I like reptiles, especially the big fierce ones that I can only admire from a distance. I don't like the dark, don't like heights, and hate idiots. I like girls - for anyone dense enough to not notice the last few posts - and I like knowing how to kick people's asses, especially when they start making what their pitiful minds interpret as witty comments on my aforementioned liking. I like trolling trolls. I have an older brother, I live with my parents (totally your usual basement dweller sitting on a laptop all the time) and I have a job doing stuff online.
You could say I take refuge in cynicism because my ideals and dreams are too bright and shiny, and I know they'll break.
Or, you know, this could all be a complete lie. Anonymity is awesome, eh?

I Call Upon Thee
"...in the land of the dead, to release thy fury of thunder!"
Uh, hi! I am Quetzal, a mythology geek who also games. Don't really know what to say here - got my next few posts planned out for gaming. I... write essays in my spare time, on stuff that interests me - like mythology, and mythology in video games and...
I swear I'm not as one-track minded as I appear - it's just that it's a fascinating subject! As for video games, I do like Tales of Symphonia, Pokemon, Legend of Zelda, Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed.
This blog will be for essays, ramblings and my accounts of my Pokemon Nuzlocke run, which I am starting tomorrow. So... random stuff: I'm female. 18, Canadian, I live in the Centre of the Universe (Toronto, to non-Canadians who are not aware of the joke) and I'm about to become a university student~ I go on TV Tropes, though I am not a troper. So... yeah, introduction over. Nuzlocke details shall follow soon.
