[On the afternoon of the 1st, a disgruntled post goes up on the network.]

Did you know some moths produce silk from their salivary glands? Because I didn't until after I spat out a bunch of string this morning.

[He didn't make that connection immediately, mind you; after the initial utter bafflement, he took the time to go do more research on Fae and the insects they resemble. Nerd.]

Someone let me know if there's a market for organic fae silk. And if you could invent some kind of google or wikipedia while you're at it, that would be appreciated.

[Do you know how LONG it takes to look through PHYSICAL BOOKS]

For a while, I could pretty much do everything by myself, so I did.

[Except for the basic things he relied on his guardian for... and that sure turned out well, didn't it! (Spoilers: it didn't.)]

Now I just feel like I don't have much to offer anyone. Except silk, I guess.

"A lot" may be overselling it, but I plan to do what I can. It's just frustrating, especially along with everything else.

I'm glad you think so.
