Challenge #05059-M310: Heartfelt Effort

Master Twii's youngest student leads him to a room claiming there's an urgent matter that they need help with. When the door slides open to the massive cargo bay, a huge number of his friends, and those he views as family, shout surprise! They were not sure to the exact date of birthday so... close enough, right?

There is little more amusing than children attempting to be covert for a benevolent cause. There's an energy in the atmosphere around them, besides the fact that they're almost uniformly terrible at secrets.

Whispering too loud. Obviously going on tippy-toes to sneak around. Hiding things very badly behind their back. Obviously lying about what their stuff was for. And, of course, the Ssh-fights.

"No, you shoosh!" Adi insisted.

Friday, Teh PLN

I slept the night because melting in the heat of the day. And the heat of the day went on way longer than it needed to be.

So I am up and determined to get the writing done as soon as possible before the heat smacks me in the guts. The weather promises to be milder today, but nocturnalism is gaining appeal as summer looms.

It's going to be nastier weather as time goes by.

Onwards to the storytelling.

Thursday, Nocturnal Nonsense

I was fully awake all night. Which let me get two chapters in and write the tale for today. Huzzah.

I think I shall be out of it for most of the daylight. It seems to be working for me.

I now have the Astarion Audiobook now. I'm listening to it like it's a fanfic with a professional reader. Honestly, I just want to listen to Neil Newbon doing the voice some more :D

And it gives me something to listen to

Challenge #05057-M308: Gentle Reform

"I own no one, I don't need inherited slaves. But none of you know how to live free. So from this day forward, I'm going to live my life helping undo what my family did to you. You are hellkin, harukh'ai, and kobolds, true, but you're also people, not animals." -- BKF

It was not magic that ran my Unty's factory. It was Unwelcome People. Tethered with chains and contained by warding runes that would harm -even kill- if they set a

Wednesday, Fucked-up sleep schedule

Once again, I have not written a Weird Writer Wednesday in advance. I may be writing it today. I depends on how much I will be melting in my office.

The heat's destroyed my appetite, and I need to maintain tempting-yet-healthy victuals or suffer the consequences.

I may yet have to entreat my lovelies to look after me.

My agenda this morning is to edit the Promptcast thing first. Daily tale and Weird Writer Wednesday whenever I can summon the spoons.

I've

Challenge #05056-M307: Necessary Lesson

"Yes I am Pax Humanis. Yes I am dangerous. But as long as I'm just teaching you to hunt animals here on this world, we're cool. Besides, my prey is far more interesting with far more security. All you're doing is helping me make sure the local deer population doesn't get too numerous." -- BKF

Tuesday: A Quick One Before Summer Blast

Summer has hit like a ton of bricks and it likes to do most of its abuse in the middle of the day. So. Before I invest in a fully lychnobitical[1] lifestyle for the season, my main goal is to get the majority of my writing done before I drown in a pool of my own sweat.

Therefore, I'm avoiding most of the big distractions and getting on with getting on with things.

Wish me luck because I'm already in chat

Challenge #05054-M305: Please Take One

When I passed, I did so helping others, and begged the gods to let me continue. I am now an eternal, living, fireproof, self-repairing, house that can teleport to where I'm most needed. I can care for those within me, and expel those with cruelty and violence in their hearts. So, I'm content. -- BKF

Sunday, Stream Shenanigans Once More

Today is an Unsuitable Food Day. Because there's "Halloween Salad" on offer and I'm battling depression and fuck it, I want treatos.

Results for this past week of food monitoring indicate that I need more protein and less fat. So I shall be looking for cheaper sources of the stuff with a plan for Summer Biotic Protein Smoothies.

Newcomers to the Everdark are always surprised to learn how easily beasts can become Dire down there. Most commonly, the slugs often become Dire in the deeper caves and caverns. There's bats, too. Amongst many other creatures not also common on the surface.

There's just something about the fungi the grows down there. It does things to animals. And bugs. And other invertebrates. Oddly, though, the intelligent creatures are immune.

It might be luck.

Saturday, Stream Stuff and Nonsense

The Promptcast is doing another Booked For Friday. I actually have too much breakfast for breakfast this morning. A trial not helped by the Morbs weighing me down

I might end up throwing my toast to the birds.

Blargh.

I shall try nonetheless.

Challenge #05052-M303: Underground Business

Being a human that moved into an underground city of teufellen and other races that other humans treat as unwanted, I thought I was going to be mistreated as they are above ground. But they have treated me more kindly, more humanely, than any of my own race ever have my entire life. -- BKF
