[GRIAN]
Since it first came up on this tape, update on the whole hunger situation thing.

Mumbo did in fact look at me weird, but thankfully he didn't really ask why I wasn’t eating, and I was hungry by the point in the day when I tend to mooch off him for dinner, so that spared me an awkward conversation.

For now, at least.

It hasn't happened again, exactly. There's been nobody in to give a live statement in the week since Ren Definitely-Not-Diggity-Dog was here, so I haven't gotten a chance to experiment. It could have been some weird fluke. Sometimes you just stop being hungry!

But I don't think it was. I didn't just stop being hungry. I felt full. Satiated. You know that thing where if you've just eaten something delicious, the taste stays in your mouth, and you don't want to eat anything else for a bit so you don't lose it? I had that. I don't know how I had that, because all I'd done was listen to a guy with fake dog ears on talk about spiders, but I did. And I want it again. I want it back.

I tried reading some of the paper statements we have around out loud, while I was working this out, and I think I felt something from them. But it wasn't the same. I guess I might not have been hungry enough when I read them? Ugh.

If someone doesn't come in with a statement in the next couple weeks I'm going to go out and drag a random guy in off the street, I swear.

Aaaaand I think that's everything? Just gonna click this tape off and do my actual job now, I guess. This is all so weird. Pretty cool! But weird.

Notes:

this was one of the statements i've had on the list ever since i first started this series and it absolutely started entirely from the joke about grian not believing that's ren's real actual name. the backstory behind ren having a podcast is also very funny, i'm sure i'll explain it in one of these end notes eventually.

my dear cowriter zeph wrote the very last paragraph of this statement. specifically, they sent it in dms as a one-off bit, and i said oh perfect, can i please use that in a statement, and they said yes.

i don't know... how much posting i'm gonna be doing over the next two weeks since i'm gonna be on vacation, but i will be back eventually! i have a lot planned. i actually have a spreadsheet for planned statements now. it's color-coded. god help me.

uhh if u want to ask me questions or chat about this series i am on tumblr at sixteenth-days! and if u enjoyed please leave a comment!
