Sep. 24th, 2021 05:22 amThose PSX games and Mario Party are officially sold.
I messaged the person buying the former that he can expect them shipped out either tomorrow or Monday (depending on how long it takes me to finish Yoshi's Island; already cleared two of six worlds just yesterday). He asked me if I have any other games for sale, and I suggested he check my entire list.
He went on to offer $75 for the SNES, and $40 for my Playstation Portable, and I now have 9 hours and 14 minutes left before those expire.
Also picked up my two books at the library while Mom picked up a large flat-rate box at the nearby post office, tying in with a visit we had to make to Lowe's for some more fertilizer.

Mom had cleared up that she is actually planning to go see her family Saturday next week.

I have considered replacing Davì and his debut arc with someone in China. Even though I already have another arc centering around China later in the story, an idea had dawned on me to have someone who can cook, with their IQ stat enabling them to cook up new things as it increases, and would specialize in Chinese foods, in order to account for even more Chinese foods courtesy of Food Fantasy. As a bonus, such an arc might also allow me to send the party to one or more of its neighboring countries such as Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, or Singapore, in order to account for some stuff from those places.
That said, Brazil might still have still have some advantages of its own. For one thing, having been planned for so early on, it would be a perfect opportunity to showcase the equatorial difference in seasons, with summer approaching there while winter approaches back in Japan and Europe, similarly to how I had showcased the difference in time zones early in chapter 7 of the fanfic. In fact, if I still want an expy of Daichi from Popotan, he himself might be better off down there, since Daichi himself was dressed exactly for what was clearly spring or summer in his two episodes. And even apart from that, Namibia is the only other country south of the equator I currently plan for the party to visit, very late in the game. (Things are bound to change during development, but story changes should happen smoothly and for actual reasons.)
