Only indigo for these figures. Creating new characters is magical. They are in form of a blurred idea in your mind and minutes later they are so real in front of your eyes. Fascinating!

Abstract Games
I recently discovered Tak and I’m absolutely fascinated by it! Its beauty, simplicity, and layers of complexity are truly captivating. I’ve even started crafting my own wooden version.
Back in the 90s, I played competitive chess (regional level). However, during my university years, I discovered GO, which was a refreshing change from the repetitive positions and memory-based openings in chess. Bye bye chess. But GO requires several lifetimes to master, and eventually, I drifted away from both games.
Now, I’m on the lookout for new abstract games. Tak is the only one I’ve found so far. Have I missed any great abstract games designed for online play? It could be a great combination for a game in the category.

Notes on brown paper
Mixed notes. I always like to write on this kind of brown paper. Far for being the best or even acceptable quality, but it creates the perfect contrast. A kind of dressing for the whole notebook aesthetic.
Mixed notes and Kuretake marker pen
That’s the only good marker I found, in orange color. Pigment and archival quality. It’s a little bulky to carry but it’s full waterproof. Not very easy to find. I also use it in turquoise color.

The expert
Draft. There was a time not too long ago when people watched TV (even believed what the news said) and listened to experts. Sir Arthur C. was one of those 20th century experts. He was a known top Egyptologist.
Now, at 140 years old, he is old and worried because his grand theory was never completed after many decades of research. He maintained that the passageways of the great pyramid pointed to certain stars, but in reality there was a small deviation. His theory didn’t work even with thousands of adjustments.

But one day he had a brilliant idea to fix it. Listen: At night and secretly he went there and placed several stones to tilt the great pyramid at the precise angle. Oh yeah! Now everything works!
Everyone happy. His theory is valid, they give him medals, he gives lectures and the students learn what he writes.
