We Found A Purple Sea Urchin! OF DEATH.

[rionaleonhart]

Thank you all so much for your comments regarding university! I have been utterly overwhelmed by how lovely you all are.

As further proof that I never quite stopped being a child, I've suddenly remembered a series of computer games called Freddi Fish, aimed at children between four and eight, which I became absurdly fond of at around the age of fourteen. It was about a happy yellow cartoon fish who swam around in the ocean and solved mysteries with her best friend, a happy green cartoon fish. They sang songs about the Joys of School and foiled sharks that were pretending to be ghosts. It was generally very cheerful and silly.

My first thought, when it came to mind, was a fond recollection of Freddi Fish happily saying "We found a purple sea urchin!"

My second was 'Wow, an underwater version of Silent Hill could be really interesting, couldn't it?'

THIS IS WHY I SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED NEAR CHILDREN'S THINGS. The Freddi Fish in my mind is now cowering in terror in a dimly-lit world of dead coral, desperately trying to find Luther.

Why must Silent Hill destroy everything I love?

YOU'RE A BAD PERSON.

Have you ever played any of the Silent Hill games? You should. Because then you will experience the horrible way it creeps into everything else in your life, and who will be laughing then?

The answer is not me, because I will still be cowering under tables whenever a radio bursts into static. It'll be someone else who's never played the games, I suppose. Damn those people who haven't had Silent Hill ruin their lives.

I have played a little, and freaked. I gave it to Donnie who got further than I did, and I freaked out MORE watching him. So I do understand. Oh man, I hate that radio.

I LOVED that radio, because I was used to game baddies who snuck up and came out of NOWHERE so the radio gave you warning! I like the warning, because I get to go CHASE SMASH (on account of Sunderland looking like Chase - don't deny it, you know it to be true) which I liked.

Also, you need make a new best friend called the Walkthrough.

What you need to do is enter into an affable and mutually-beneficial relationship with Silent Hill like I have. I mean, sure, it'll turn you into a carrier, but you'll be a happy carrier.
