Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

Saturday, Stream Shenanigans and Cough Cures

I have junk in my lungs that is not shifting easily, but is making my daily life a pain in the bum. I have things that will help shift it, including going completely off the Keto for a spell. It seems to be working so far.

My lovelies are off in Brizvegas finishing up the unfuckening of the old base of operations. As I understand things, this Monday is the last day.

I have misunderstood things before.

I should learn not to put entire-family plans down on this blog. They inevitably fizzle.

My PLNs can do that, too. But at least I can say why the hell that happened.

The Promptcast has already done their thing, so today's PLN is basically story, and carbs. Because carbs are the pln to clear my lung block.

Onwards.

Challenge #04975-M226: Timey Wimey

Scramble learns his time magic allows him to 'see' briefly through time. It's allowed them to avoid a lot of trouble. -- BKF

It took months to spot it, on their way from one place to another, because it was very subtle. And it's terribly difficult to spy other time magic when time magic is already employed. In the case of Scramble, it was reacting to situations slightly before they unfolded.

The gap between reaction and stimulus was getting lighter by fractions

Friday, Bad Air Day

We lost at Trivia Night. Whoops. Next week, we're calling ourselves the Bad Ass Losers. Might as well lean into it.

I'm dealing with some asthma shenanigans and a Cyclone Headache. I have no idea on what my lovelies are doing besides cleaning up their old base in Brizvegas, and I might be spending a majority of today horizontal in a dark room because MY FACE HURTS.

Yes, I have taken painkillers. I am waiting for them to kick in.

Challenge #04974-M225: Anti-Terror Campaign

You made a huge mistake. You hurt master Twii's young charge. He WILL be coming to talk to you. Firmly. -- BKF

There's always someone like the type in the Edge Territories. Someone's brat whose parents believe can do no wrong. The kind of kid who is endless torment to everyone in their general vicinity. The troublemaker, the prankster, the hangman... or the bully. Or any of the above, depending on their mood. The kind of kid who the N'Ozzies refer to

Thursday, Trivia Night

My lovelies are offski in Brizvegas, sledgehammering stuff and chucking it in the skip. There is no news on the appearance of the foretold van, but I am nevertheless on starter blocks about that if need so be.

I spent practically all of yesterday working on the Promptcast thing. There are now FIVE fucking WIPs directly related to the Promptcast's shenanigans.

Powers know when any of them are going to be firkin done, but they will reach that point eventually. Or a

Challenge #04973-M224: Hatchet, Interred

I am done. I've been a hired killer for over 20 standard years. I don't want to do it anymore. I'm tired of it. -- BKF

To quote classic literature: I am the best at what I do, and what I do ain't pretty. Not that I've read the works of Lee Kirby, I've just had it said to me by the people who have. Those sorts who can afford to learn how to read. When you grow up fighting for your

Wednesday, Locking In

Hocus pocus, I need to focus. Why? Well...

  • I have one less day to work on the Promptcast entry because of timing shenanigans last week
  • Beloved will be renting a van to finish up working on Adorable's ex-house
  • Which means I will have the use of my car for three days
  • Which, in turn, means that I can go on a run to MeMum's for tech support, taxi duties, and stuff delivery. Huzzah.

Mum? Write your agenda now. Further bulletins as events

Challenge #04972-M223: Like an Unwanted Cat

You're alive. How... unfortunate. -- Luna

Earl Valiant Stormwight Hallowfine Whitekeep was in the best place in his world. Respected by his Barons, absolute authority in his realm, and everyone in his power obeyed his every word. Everyone in his castle bent to his whims. His favoured son was just like him, even if the boy did run off to take the Grand Tour without Valiant's express permission.

The situation was still controllable. He had mercenaries on the case to track Spitebane

Tuesday, Census and Shenanigans

It's census day today, and the nosy buggers in the administration section want to know all kinds of things about me and my life. At least I'm on the rolls as an Enby now.

Noted on the e-Census:

  • No space for Jews in the religion section
  • Birth sex and gender identity are noted, as is sexuality
  • Birth sex is mandatory
  • They're really interested in how you get to work. There's tons of options including "Work from home"

We're getting it done early

Challenge #04971-M222: An Ash For Ashes

Due to a dryad's curse, an estate staff must tend the gardens with flamethrowers, lest the manor be overrun with foliage... -- Deathshead419

If there is a universal truth to society, it is that those with a lot of money and power simply have to show it off. Only the well off and the highest strata of the world could get away with building things just to look at. Artificial ruins of an imagined lost civilisation. False caves or hermit huts, replete

Monday, Urgent Shopping Nonsense

We need kitty litter. There's other things on my list, but the litter is the most urgent of them all.

And I get to take Adorable's Mum [I think I'll go with AM for short henceforth] out on my circuit to see where I hunt out the bargains. Which promises to be a fun experience even if it will wipe me out by the time I'm done.

Today's story will be happening after my post-shopping nap, belike.

I can try to get

Challenge #04970-M221: I'm the Badguy?

No more villainry -- Luna

Master of the Shadow Arts, Bai Niyurufanthur, had joined many other citizens of Wolklippenstadt in the circus' audience. It was a rather excellent show. Bai lingered for the sideshows and games, seeking some games to reveal as fraudulent or rigged.

A Master of the Martialist Art of Shadows could not fail at a carnival game unless it was truly rigged.

He never got to try them, since he found a scene that distracted him entirely. One very

Sunday, Slowly Slowly S-L-O-W-L-Y

No streams I wish to catch are going today so I have been taking my sweet fucking time.

I'll be working on my daily tale very soonish to now. Also maybe taking my sweet time. Depends on the whims of my muse.

Tomorrow, the story stream will be running from the Promptcast. I'll be modding there, writing my tale as quickly as I can, and otherwise getting on with my bullshit.

It's nice to take it slowly now and again.

Challenge #04969-M220: More Money Than Sense

My favorite obsession -- Luna

Fairytales always have things in three. The first and second son only exist in the tale to try and fail, whilst the third wins it all with his kind heart and willingness to listen to advice.

Horseshit.

It makes third sons believe in winning it all in spite of their brothers. That's not at all realistic. What really happens is that the first son gets everything, including the father's adoration. The second son is kind of... kept

Saturday, Ailments Ahoy

Everything intermittently wrong with me has ganged up on me today.

I slept on my left shoulder wrong. Some eyelashes in my right eye decided to stage a rebellion, but they're too teeny tiny to grab with the tweezers and pull out. My lungs want to go on strike and my knees are intermittently warping on their own.

I'm doing what I can to relieve that.

Making progress on cataloguing my comics, now. At last. I give myself one folder or half
