Hello!!!
If you're reading this, give me my journal back, I need it!
I'm Nem! I look for supernatural beings and creatures! I write down my findings to hopefully decrease the stigma about them, they're not so bad!
I go by she/her/they!

Werewolves
Werewolves are real!! I also met one :]
Werewolf Basics: They transform into wolves. Also known as lycanthropy.
Werewolves apparently can mostly eat like humans! They do consume more meat, though I’m not really surprised.
Werebutterflies don’t exist :(
A werewolf equivalent to a vampire sire is called a dire!
Werewolves have instincts, though they don’t seem to have much of an impact on daily life! They mostly just help Owen hunt, I think.
THE OMEGAVERSE ISN’T REAL!!!!!! :DDDDDD

*Nem sneaks up behind you and attempts to pick your pocket.*
ooc: OKAY HAIII IDK HOW I KEEP FINDING YOU hehe. in this one nem's just a random blue kingdom rogue :3
@nem-does-things
“4C, I swear-” *Owain turns around, then halts.*
“…You. I do not recognize your face. Identify yourself.”
"I'm Nem!" Nem giggles. They swipe a piece of gold out of Owain's pocket before tossing it back to him. "Doesn't that armor ever get sweaty?"
*Owain snatches back the gold from midair and eyes them suspiciously.*
“Perhaps. What’s it to you? And get out of my pockets! You’re as bad as 4C…”
"Curiosity!" she crows. "I remind you of 4C? I'll take that as a compliment!"
Despite that not, in fact, being a compliment, Nem preens while tossing Owain's farkle dice up and down in one hand.
“Give me that- Who taught you your manners? They did a poor job. Rifling through pockets and asking personal questions…”
"My manners are wonderful!" Nem darts around Owain, seemingly inspecting his armor. "Also, it's my job as a rogue, to... borrow things others probably don't need!"
She pokes at the Zweihänder, hefting it slightly. "Dang, how do you swing this? And how was it forged, it looks amazing!"
*Nem sneaks up behind you and attempts to pick your pocket.*

Also about the avid and marm situation, i know its tough rn but remember that we as a community, in vsmp, skyblock, the flight etc, did nothing wrong by loving their work, their characters, their stories.
No matter how many "i told you sos" youll see on twitter or anywhere else, please dont feel like you should've known better when the whole point of the shitstorm is that people got manipulated, intentionally. Youll see the sentiment of "dont idolise content creators" repeated, and it seems so obvious from the get go, but I know it often only hits once something of this severity happens in relation to a creator you love.
It hurts and it sucks and however you decide to react to it is your business and your business alone. Keep creating, keep loving, or take a break, focus on something else entirely, whatever you do, there is no correct or right way to deal with putting so much effort and care into stories of people who hurt others, not when theyre already off the cc sphere anyway.
I know i dont need to give my two cents on this, that it has all been said before, but just yknow. Support circle and a little empathy to my fellow mcyt fan compatriots bc yall are some of the most talented, passionate and creative people ive seen and its so easy to get lost in further discoursauce and let it get to you
Hey we do kinda the same things!! Except i dont do interviews i just kinda do a lot of breaking and entering and cyberstalking normal research!! and also im employed at the magnus institute thats also pretty different i think
- @arlointhearchives
WE DO?!?
It's so nice to meet people with the same interests as me :D
Have you met anything interesting? I met a super nice person who said he knew a werewolf once.
just the normal, you know, a few Leitners and general artefacts lol
a lot of dead people tbh its unfortunate
also that time with the weird worms...
Noooo, I'm sad for all the dead people D:
Ooo tell me more about the worms! Sometimes I eat the small ones that I find. I cook them first though! I'm not a barbarian!
they almost felt sentient...
The insurance guy said it was supernatural.
one burrowed into my cheek like it was trying to get into my brain...
wasnt nice getting it out tbh, haha. and the consussion from falling over from bloodloss... its fine tho
Oh no, I hope you're alright!
Sentient worms don't sound fun. I kinda feel bad for eating their brethren now.
its fine we killed them wirh co2
What's Co2? Is it some super-secret archives thing?
What are the archives, anyway?
It's like, evil air.
Also, the archives is a place where all the statements are filed in my place of work! i dont actually work there, im a researcher, but i thought itd sound fun :)
AIR CAN BE EVIL?! Well, I guess it's not all bad if it stopped my new friend from dying!
Oooh, so there's information there? Maybe I can stop by sometime! Or not. I have no idea how these letters are getting to you.
air can be REALLY evil :(
yeahh i dont think we're anywhere close by? I'm in london, anyhow. Your letters look pretty old tbh
also YAY FRIENDS
What does the evil air do?
What's London? I guess we're not close by :( it would be nice to pay you a visit!
YAY FRIENDS :D
kill you
London is the city i live!! and man. wish i could like. teleport
Are there any nice magical creatures in London?
You could ask a vampire! I think they can teleport to magical beacons. They aren't really easy to contact though, so I understand if that doesn't work.
Haven't met any! probably
haven't met any vampires either, i think... will keep that in mind though!
No nice magical creatures? That's a shame :(
I'll send you a plant sample with this letter though! The berries glow, and you can eat them too!
I wouldn't recommend planting them. They spread like mint...

Vampires!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vampires are real!! I met one.
Vampire Basics: They drink blood, are repelled by silver, turn into bats, and have claws. The one who turns the person is called a sire, while the newly turned is called a fledgling!
Vampires (I’m gonna start writing vamps, my hand is cramping) regard garlic as foul. As far as I can tell they’re not actually allergic to it, they just really don’t like the smell and taste. Eating a garlic clove to ward off vamps is pretty inconclusive, since it takes a while for it to get into the bloodstream and I think a particularly stubborn one could drink your blood anyway, it would just be nasty and an unpleasant experience for everyone involved.
Vamps are more durable than humans, and I think they’re generally stronger than humans? They’re definitely faster.
Apparently some vampires have the urge to count small round things. I don’t know, I don’t think they were listening when I asked them about it.
There is NO EVIDENCE that vampires are repulsed by holy symbols!! I asked someone about it and she said that you naturally start flinching away from them if they're held by people trying to kill you, which makes sense! Correlation doesn't equal causation!
Blood has different tastes depending on the subject! Animal blood is more metallic-y and has less flavor and nutritional value than human blood. Human blood varies depending on the age and diet of the person!
Forcing a turning is annoying…? yeah, annoying for the sire, I think. It damages the fangs. When I asked about the fledgling experience, he seemed to become hard of hearing all of a sudden. Do vamps get hearing loss?

"Abnormally? Eh, maybe." Nem's face drops as she registers Owen's murmur. "Oh, he's gone?! I'm so sorry for your loss!"
Personal space forgotten, Nem darts in to wrap Owen in a hug, then retreats.
"You don't have to tell me anything if you don't want to! But I know that people are so rude to things they don't understand!"
(ooc: ty ty nem is such a quirky goblin i love her)
*Owen bristles, slightly alarmed. He takes a step back once released.*
“I mean, I never told you he was dead… Whatever. He was a kind dire, that’s all.” *Something about his expression says that this person was more important to Owen than he pretends.*
Nem tilts her head, slightly confused. "You said he was gone?... whatever. If it's a sensitive topic you don't have to answer, BUT!"
They bounce up and down in excitement, and pull out a leather-bound journal.
"What was he like? A good person? He sounds like a good person. Do werewolves have to eat something different from a human diet, like vampires?!"
*Owen shifts.*
“…He was kind. Very kind.”
*He pauses.*
“…The kindest. His… His name was Louis. And he took care of me.”
“And not really. Though… we do eat more meat.” *Owen seems resigned to answering questions about his lycanthropy now that there isn’t much denying it anymore.*
"WE?! You're a werewolf TOO?!" Nem scribbles manically in her notes. "Do you have werewolf instincts? Are those a thing?!"
She straightens up and looks off into the distance for a second with a sour expression.
"Please tell me the omegaverse is fake. That has to be absolute bullshit. I don't think I could take it if it was real."
*Owen’s ears (hidden beneath his hair as they are) flatten to his head in that feeling of “are you kidding me.”*
“…Yes. I do have minor instincts. They mostly help me hunt for myself, now that… my dire isn’t around.”
*His nose wrinkles.*
“The fanfiction thing? No, not that I’m aware of. My dire never mentioned it.”
Nem sighs in relief. "Okay. okay. Thank you."
They scribble down... something. Her handwriting is completely incomprehensible.
"Hmmm... okay! Do you have claws? Are they retractable like a cats?"
Nem rummages in a leather bag next to her, pulls out a slice of bread, and bites into it.
*Owen peers at her writing.*
“…How do you even read that?”
*He leans back and sighs.*
“I mean. Yeah. I’m a werewolf, not a were… I don’t know. Werebutterfly. I guess they are sort of retractable, but that involves shapeshifting my hands to get the claws, so it’s up for interpretation.”
*He eyes her, silently judging her choice of snack.*
Nem continues writing. "It's my normal handwriting!" she replies around the slice of bread. The rest of Owen's statement processes, and she swallows the rest all at once.
"WEREBUTTERFLIES EXIST?!" they shriek, clearly missing the sarcasm.
*Owen jumps, alarmed.*
“No‽ I don’t think they do-”
“Your handwriting is atrocious, by the way.”
"My handwriting is awesome!!" Nem squawks playfully, writing a symbol that looks suspiciously like a curly fry Owen saw sold at the market once.
"You mentioned shapeshifting your hands, can you transform your body parts separately?" she asks, chewing on the end of a pencil.
