Today I focused on creating the skeleton. It was slow going and tedious at times. With just creating the foot each attempt didn’t take long, roughly the time it took for the larger hand on the clock to move one number. Creating the entire skeleton took five times that, per attempt. Despite that, it is still better than trying to work from the ground up.

I didn’t make as much progress as I would have liked today, though if nothing else I've gotten faster at mimicking bone. I feel like i’m missing something crucial with the bones, like a function I forgot about after reading the notes, whatever, I can always come back to it and change it when I figure out exactly how it will interact with the rest of the body. For now the most important function of the bones is a framework to build everything else on, and honestly, I’m probably overdoing it a bit with how much work i’m putting into it at the moment. What I have already satisfied my immediate needs, I can’t expect it to be perfect right off the bat. I still need to see how everything interacts before I can really perfect anything.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

Other than my work on what I have tentatively named ‘mimic’ life is pretty dull. When i’m not working on the mimic i’m either recovering mana or sleeping. All other tasks are carried out while I recover mana, even writing here.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
