Salutations readers.
It seems that my last post has proven to be a bit of an overreaction. It turns out that I am in fact not suffering from a fatal Earth sickness with my days numbered, as I woke up yesterday feeling absolutely normal. My hunch is that my adventurous diet here on this planet finally caught up to me, and my illness proved to be the effects of some odd creature I had consumed not agreeing with my several stomachs. Whatever it was however, I am grateful to have put the ordeal past me; I’m more than happy to leave “being sick” to the Earth beings.
While recovering from my illnesses, I only had the energy to laze about and distract myself from my aching body with the “The Internet”‘s pleasures. Upon my virtual adventures this time, I was introduced to the author FutureGamingPro. While I had no backstory or knowledge of their personalities, I was hooked by their adherence to the late Great Human Kobe Bryant, a being I myself addressed earlier and had great respect for. Future Gaming Pro went on to comment on Kobe Bryant’s great achievement, and was especially keen to highlight his unbending dominance in the game of this so called “Basketball”. It was from here, however, that his post went in a direction I am still pondering. FutureGamingPro started to liken Bryant’s dominance to several others I had never heard before, and constantly referred to… something named Super Smash Brothers. Now at first, I was under the impression that this referred to a pair of biological brothers. Perhaps they enjoyed to destroy things (Humans are quite odd in this way) Upon turning to the internet however, I was told there are actually many Super Smash Brothers; and each one fascinated me. What were these beings? The article I happened upon had a list of these Smash Brothers. Each one had a unique name, such as “Samus” or “Link”. One even looked somewhat like me! “Ridley” was its name, I believe. Along with names, I was able to see their appearances as well as read about their abilities, all of which related to some form of battle. These abilities ranged from weapons to forms of fighting to even supernatural abilities; I was starting to reel. From the looks of it, Earth was simply home to too many surprise beings; all of which apparently could decimate any of my people in combat if they tried.
Upon deeper research, much to my surprise, I learned that these beings were not physical beings. It seems that here on Earth, “The Internet” is not the peak of what human technology can do. No, they have managed to create virtual realities; one where these “Smash Brothers” being controlled by humans can battle with one another. It seems that this planet has no shortage of wonders. I mused to myself; if these “Smash Brothers” realities were present on my world, would my people still be at each others throats physically? Or would they simply funnel their destructive energies in these virtual battles? During my long days of sickness, these amusing thoughts give me some comfort.
Until next time readers.
