Olly olly oxen free!
... which, after a little research, seems to be derived from Olde English all ye, all ye outs in free (or something similar), and which, if you've ever played the children's game of "Hide and Seek", you know it means that it's time to come in from your hiding spot and start the game again with a new Seeker ("It").
No, I'm not suggesting that we start a game of Hide and Seek, but it does kind of feel like we have been in the middle of a game lately with the very minimal activity in the Zantarni forums! (yes, I noticed. I suspect you guys have too)
So, I'm asking you to please check in... let me know you're here and what's been keeping you busy. I would genuinely like to know where everyone has been "hiding" lately!

I have been here all along after all these chains in the dungeon only allow me to travel so far. . .

Well, I just got back first of all ^^;
I'm currently suffering bad in a part time job that's taking a big part out of my time and sanity. When I'm not doing that, I'm playing Final Fantasy XIV Online, and trying to learn how to not be terrible at high level content.
Also, my family got a dog! It's a service animal for my mother in law, and she's a humongous Great Dane.

*Flits in from lurk mode.*
"Ollie Ollie Oxen Free!"
Hello. I pop in daily basically for a quick peek at what is new and to do some dailies.
I work in a cookie factory, so we have overtime for the Christmas order rush currently.
Plus I am usually using my on line time at gaia, dappervolk and youtube. That used to include solia, too, but they are currently down for a big update.
*Flits back to lurk mode.*

Rayven's got busy life squared, so that's where she is. Me... I'm here. Right now lurking more than speaking because of a massive stress headache.

LOL. Thanks for your responses over the last couple of days, guys!
Sir Scarz, I know you never left or managed to escape for long! The dungeon has been reinforced several times over the years! 
Chrys, I saw that you came back - welcome back! I'm sorry to hear that your PT job seems to be taking such a toll on your time and sanity.
aaaaah... I do seem to remember that you work at a cookie factory, Angel! That must get a little hectic around this time of year  Thanks for checking in.
Sorry to hear about the headache, Tam - I hope you feel better soon. Thanks for the update on Rayven, by the way - I guess you're in regular contact with her these days?
 So why are you guys doing so much lurking around instead of posting? I know we're not all extroverts, but...

Yeah, Rayven and I are mail stuff to each other friends, we're on several games together now.
And... for me, lack of brain function, mostly. And fixation on Go Bots and Jewel Atlantis Solitaire.

I... seem to never get a break for long. x.x Beginning of august my cat got sick (she's better now!) and then I had an annoying time with getting a dentist appointment. and then last week I almost fainted and fell in the bathroom when I got up in the middle of the night. I went to the doctor the very next morning and my tests came back basically normal. I'm mostly better now, but have a persisting issue. The hospital will be calling me to schedule some more tests.
I think it most likely won't be a big deal, but gotta be precautionary. *shrugs*
I've been trying to take it easy, but outside of that I play pokemongo a good bit, and also spend a good bit of time with my bf, we're watching Gotham. And I was starting to get back into doing more art. I was going to continue mini paintings of underwater animals, I only have a sea turtle done so far!

Thanks for checking in, Boo. I'm sorry to hear about your cat but am glad she's feeling better now! It sounds like you've had a couple of scares the last month or so - I hope whatever is going on with you is not serious and easily treatable (if it even requires treatment). What prompted the idea of painting underwater animals? *curious* It sounds like it could be an interesting thing to do!
lol - that's cool, Tam - there's something about the friendships that are made here... I'm sorry that you've been a little brain-foggy though

Yeah I also learned my poor cat had been buck shot when she was a kitten, so that's pretty sad. o:
I've been feeling a bit better everyday..and I have to go to the hospital for some stuff today but I feel like I'm better enough that it doesn't matter anymore lol.
umm.. well I wanted to do some mini paintings for awhile cause I thought they'd be cute and easy(hahaha they aren't). I was struggling to figure out what to do and thought I couldn't go wrong with animals. So I asked people for suggestions and someone said turtle and I thought a sea turtle would be more colorful to do. and then after I did that I thought about how it would be cute in a bathroom and more with it would be better. Boring explanation, but that's how it happened haha.

*peeks in*
Er, I was/am in the process of switching jobs and learning a lot of new stuff all at once between my new job and a new register system at the other job.
And I also just don't feel like I have that much to say tbh. >.>

So let Derpy talk, Kaderin.
Boo, if you made your paintings small enough, you could put them on brooches and sell them.
Queen Blaze, I have new reasons to be foggy now! Remnants of vax funk and dentistry freezing funk. Yey.

Lol Tam. If I could make a Derpy account here, that would be more likely to happen probably...
>.>
Unfortunately, the item I would need to make an avi for him is one I can't equip (because I can only access this site on my phone so the pet-type items don't work). Plus, unlike some sites, I don't think I can have a proper Derpy-only avi as the humanoid base here isn't unequipable either.
(I mean, separate account doesn't have to be how Derpy chats, but it's easier for me to keep straight tbh.)

I manage to sneak out of the dungeons sometimes, but without fail whenever I reach the end of my chain I always come back 
As for where I go, honestly I am a pretty big introvert so most of my 'social' energy is gone after work is done and I tend to watch youtube/netflix. I'm trying to force myself to catch up/do things I've been delaying - eye and dentist appointments and some creative things like finally finishing and putting out the beginning of a lets play video for youtube.
I do tend to lurk on Zan every once in a while but forget to log on sometimes

Amurita, which game?
Kaderin, I understand. Sometimes I'm surprised by how easily I can play with Weird on this account. But then the avatar is her, so.
Hmmm. I wonder if any knights have any ideas on how you could make a Derpy mule.
