Today I have selected a little thing I did a while back to share with everyone, Cats of Ulthar a horror story by H. P. Lovecraft. It might look a little weird because I adapted it from an accordion book format, but I think I did a decent job of adapting it.
And also, remember my last mega? Well, I did manage to finish the book, so I’m putting it here for you to download. I made a version for reading digitally, but the main purpose would be for printing, that’s why I stuck with A4 size. I can try to make instructions on how to make the printed pages into a neat book in the future if anyone wants it.
Well, if anyone has any suggestions on other short stories, specially horror stories, I’d love to make them into illustrated books, I love doing this and it’s super fun for me, so I’d like to keep going.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

I know I ought to do both, but right now I want more from my existing relationships, more than I want new friends. I guess I should probably just communicate that to them huh
As I’ve learned, if you like/really like/love them as friends, expressing in some way that you do, and that you want to become a bigger part of each other’s lives because you value your time together, is very important. Sometimes people are already looking for people who value time with them enough to want more closeness, and need a sign who of their friends is that.
I realized I couldn’t know for sure if my friend didn’t want the same. Just like you they could desire the same and have any number of their own reasons to not have transparently told you.
Remember capitalism creates atomization that makes people act anxiously distant in their own bubbles. It increases the number of times people think “If they really cared enough to bond more with me, they would’ve insert sign of interest by now.” I wouldn’t be surprised if this has applied to most members of the human race. In retrospect, many people really liked me but I wouldn’t vulnrably show how deeply I wanted more platonic intimacy, and it cost me(and still costs me) close friendships and lots of socializing experiences.
