Hey, even more newcomers! Welcome all! And a special hi to Bees, both because of your username (I do research on bees, mostly bumble bees) and your nationality - another Canuck. Hi from "The Rock"!

Hello everyone! There are so many that I won’t even try to list all of you, but you are all welcome! Hopefully the current storm will calm down soon and we can again concentrate on the important things such as chitchat and fanworks! You’ll find loads upon loads of material here. You don’t need to read everything to participate (I certainly haven’t) but of course it’s polite to read a couple of the newest pages in a discussion to avoid unnecessary repetition of things just recently mentioned. Unless it’s about your personal situation or opinion, in which case your comment is obviously welcome!

I wrote a bit of an first steps guide for Corvo a few days ago, it’s in this thread on page... 291! So much traffic lately!  Just for the case anyone feels overwhelmed by the amount of threads and messages :) In any case please check out the Forum Rules here: https://ssssforum.com/index.php?board=4.0

Hey, hello! I like to read and tell stories in whatever format they come.

Languages in order of proficiency: Portuguese (native), English (pretty good but can't make speaking noises for the life of me), German (learning), Swedish (learning), Japanese (mostly vocabulary), Finnish (so little can't really claim to be "learning" yet), Spanish (might be able to mash up something intelligible from Portuguese + an year of school classes eons ago).

Now let's get into the very serious real reason I came to in this thread: What's up with the cookies and dream ducks?!?!

I'm one of those people who quietly reads the comments under every page and this has been intriguing me. Where did these come from? I must know!

We have Mirasol to thank for the definitive origin story of the squirrel cookies.  (That's official, says me.)

I see wave addressed the cookie question, but I don't think anyone explained the dream ducks. Voila! (Spoilered to avoid clutter)

Sevseres may I suggest you add “used to be called nefnef” for a while on each of your posts, or maybe add it to the signature for a while, otherwise it’s a bit confusing :)
