Pie! Wait I mean Hi Museblogger peoples!
Oh gosh, that gravatar. THOSE EYES. AND ALL THOSE TEETH
Anyways, here’s the pie you exclaimed for.
And two more just because.

By the way, everyone, this is Areo. I’m not very good at introductions, but you maybe have heard of him as Swalot.
THE HORROR, THE HORROR!
The teeth drip with ancient drool
The monster rises from the pool
Filled now with age-old wrath
It’s been disturbed, the spell is cast
The massive jaws of terror clench
Its breath expels with awful stench
As as it looks into your eye
As its claw rises high
As you’re sure you’re going to die
It whispers softly –
“The cake is a lie.”
*hearts*
D’aww, thanks. I just spontaneously wrote that in one go. I love silly poetry. Er…I suppose that could be a song.
Hello! Are you Swalot? (how was that for a welcome, right)
Anyway, it’s nice to see new people.
Nice name, brobird! *fistbump*
I never learned the codes for the new smilies (lazy), so have a c+p’d pie from olden days. It’s a bit stale, do be careful.

Also, welcome! We’ve heard lots about you. You will make a nice addition to our
cultfamilysecret lairgroup of pie-throwers trying to take over the universe.Hello AreoSwalot. We’ve heard so much about you…
/notinacreepyway
Welcome!
Heya Swalot! I’m LBK. So nice to finally meet you!

Welcome to the world of MuseBlog, Areohawk!
I think your ‘Blog name is wicked cool. From what we’ve heard you sound like a wonderful, wonderful person, so we’re very glad to have you!
Hello, Aerohawk/Swalot! What a good name.
I think everyone’s going to call you Swalot. Sorry!
Hi, Swalot!

No need to apologize! I’m fine with being called Swalot.
Hey Areohawk/Swalot! Welcome welcome welcome!

Have a few more welcome pies. I’m sure there’s more to come, too.

Hi, Swalot! Welcome to the MB! Have some pies!

Hey, Swalareohawk! (Does that work?) Sign my face?
Hi, Swalot! If you don’t mind me calling you that, of course. It’s a pleasure to meet you.
Welcome! I’m Bibliophile, who will try to call you Aerohawk or Aero (We used to have a HAWK, so calling you hawk or Hawk would be confusing) rather than Swalot. My avatar is a tardigrade; in case you haven’t heard of them, they’re microscopic animals that can survive a plethora of amazing things. Is your name a reference to something, or do you just like air and hawks (as do I)? It’s good to see you!
When was RTH’s last appearance? It has been a while, hasn’t it?
Last May, I think.
Hello! Is there anything you would like to me to call you?
Tardigrades sound interesting, I may have to look then up to learn more!
As for my name, I just like wind and hawks although Areohawk was meant to be a hasmarish name originally.
Oops hasmarish is supposed to be gamer. I blame my phone for that.
You can call me Bibliophile or Biblio or Bibli. Did you know tardigrades have been to space? They lacked protective gear, but they survived! Some of them were exposed to ultraviolet radiation there and survived that, too.
O.O
Did you know that a human with an air tank could survive in space for at least as long as the tank held air? For the longest time I held the common misconception that exposure to vacuum meant simultaneously freezing/boiling, as temperature and pressure both drop to near zero. But there’s so little matter in space (duh) that it takes much longer for heat to leave your body, and a healthy body contains blood under pressure in the circulatory system/skin for some time. You will become painfully bloated and can feel water in your mouth coolly boiling, but that all returns to normal after you re-pressurize! After too long you’ll go blue as your mouth and nose freeze, then blind, but those too are reversible. Most of this hasn’t been tested, but NASA is pretty sure you survive at least up to a few minutes without oxygen, and perhaps longer with a scuba tank.
I HAVE BEEN DYING TO SHARE THAT.
THAT IS SO COOL
And makes 2001: A Space Odyssey… slightly less incorrect.
That’s awesome!
The tardigrades didn’t have an air tank, though; that was the point. And they’re much, much better at enduring extreme heat and pressure than we are, too.
Awesome!
Woah, that is awesome. NASA should totally test that, somehow….
Welcome to the ‘blog!
I hope you enjoyed the pie; it’s my secret recipie. *mischevious grin*
Hi, Aerohawk! I’m Kai, and I talk about astronomy kind of a lot.
Thats great! I have an interest on astronomy too despite my lack of knowledge on alot of it.
Thank you all for the warm welcome Musebloggers!
This may be odd to most of you but… *Noms all the pies and pastries and spikey stale pies, tarts, cakes etc! Then goes over and signs SBF’s face!*
Anyways, I’m so glad that I will get the chance to meet so many wonderful people!
Uh, I’m a bit late to this, but hi, Swalot! Wow, it’s kind of awesome to finally meet you at last.
Hello! Its a pleasure meeting you as well!
Oh space squids. I haven’t been on MuseBlog in far too long, and I entirely missed your arrival!
Would you prefer to be called Areohawk or Swalot?

Either way, you are very most certainly welcome to the Blog!
As you may have gathered, Cskia has told us all quite a bit about you. So we’re all glad to finally “meet” you. I am no exception! *more pies, and a few cookies*
Hello there, R101!
I would like be called Swalot!
I think it is nice meeting you all too! I feel warmly welcomed.
Anyways thanks for the pies and cookies! *noms the pies and cookies!*
That’s good because we all know you as Swalot. Here, have a pie. *pies Swalothawk with lemon meringue pie*
As I have seen on the posts. XD
OOOH lemon meringue pie! *is hit by pie, and tries to nom it off own face*
WAIT A SEC, Swalothawk?! So many peculiar variations of my name. >.<
I like them all. XD
Swalothawk is nice…
Areolot… Swareo…
No. I’ll stop now.
