Vis's surname at the start of TWOTM is Solus, meaning "one", "sole", "lonely". Presumably, this is a standard surname given to kids in orphanages.
Throughout the book are constant references to his identity issues: the constant lying, his relationship to his names and titles (Vis/Diago, the Telimus surname, the title of Catenicus), everything about the Suus beach episode, etc.
And in addition, the book ends with us seeing multiple versions of him across what seems to be different dimensions.
Here's the synopsis for the sequel, The Strength Of The Few:
Essentially, he goes from having a name that means "lone" to being more than one. I dig the irony (intentional or not.)
"dream job"? you misunderstand me. my ideal job is to dream. paid by the hour to snork mimimi. for as long i can remember i have had a passion for being snug as a bug in a rug
Obsidian is one of my longtime faves for planning and worldbuilding, and Ellipsus is very staunchly anti-AI! Here's a link to a post about it:
So because I got a slight amount of motivation for writing(wild what a lung infection will do to you) I've decided to take it up again. But I am not going to be caught dead using google drive/docs.
Are there any good alternatives? Cause when I tried to find a software that didn't train AI I literally only got results on how to avoid people detecting AI use.

bitch ass motherfucking piece of shit drone
god i hate writing for this stupid fucking fandom.
no one knows what the hell is going on. the timeline is all over the place. my favourite character (wet cat archaeologist with visions) gets taken into custody and we never see her again. Some Guy manages to stay young until like 2090. those Fuckass Drones break the laws of physics so hard I have to add magic into the worldbuilding so it doesn't all fall down
we're so normal

thank you lemon of snicket for permanently altering my writing style
the urge to design a logo for a Vietnamese space agency that only exists within the bounds of the PHM fanfic you're ""writing"" (read: Vaguely Thinking About) and will likely never show up on the fic itself

Hi I've been stranded on Mars for about the equivalent of 1 Earth week and my crew probably thinks I'm dead by now. It's really boring up here. Is Poob available in space? I have access to a computer but if that doesn't work I plan to dig up and refurbish a rover.
Poob is available in all planets, moons, and dimensions!
Grace is actually so yellow-coded. I mean it makes sense if you think about it; yellow can represent:
cowardice, one of Grace's main character flaws
stars and the sun
joy, curiosity and happiness, which fits his personality
hope (a key theme in the book)
and it is on the book cover! oughh colour symbolism my beloved <33
Grace: *exists*
The costumers, apparently: we are going to create a character that is so yellow-coded
fun, silly, OSHA-compliant.𖥔 ݁ ˖ ⏾teaching my future self the consequences of a digital footprint
