Challenge #04981-M232: Trade With Strangers

Odd comics with no words circulate on this polluted world. It shows people giving ones wearing colorful clothes of red, yellow, and black a wide birth, and yet give them aid when asked. The other images were of the ones with those colors, and people wearing more soothing tones, opening cage doors where people can run free. -- BKF

It had rained paper again. It had also rained rain, staining everything a muddy yellow. Muddier than the yellow of the clouds or the sky. Not as muddy as the ground. Everything was wet, yellowish, and difficult. Rinni had to use a shard of broken plastic just to pick them up. It gave him time to look at the pictures.

They were weird pages, the story was told four ways and it took Rinni a few goes to get it. One page was read top to bottom, the other bottom to top. On one side, they read left to right. On the other, right to left.

There were no words, which was fine because Rinni couldn't read.

Thursday, No PLNs

I might actually have nothing planned for today. Which means that I shall take what means I need to remedy my ailments [soup for the pre-lurgi scratch, rice for the intestinal issues] as well as taking my time with my daily tale.

But if I try to hurry it along, I have more time for de-stressing activities.

I'm up to coffee and pills, and it's half-past nine.

I think I might need some luck.

Challenge #04980-M231: Something Snapped

they say you give away what was denied to you. It’s all in the name, really- Mercy, at your service. -- Weirdlet

[AN: In relation to Two Things Most Needed ]

Two hours had passed, and two Hellkin were into their cups. Of course, it was illegal for Hellkin to drink alcohol in Kahamkross. Thanks to some folks' interesting reactions to bread and pastry, it was not illegal for anyone to be drunk.

Both of them could honestly say that they'd only

Wednesday, Shopping Again

I have fed the cats, my starter, and myself. Yay. Currently filling in the time until ten by going through my nonsense in order.

My lovelies are offski getting laundry sorted for the meanwhile. At some point in the future, there will be Wardrobe Filtering.

I have NO idea what we're doing for the looming Crimbus season. Hell, I've barely done anything for the short story cover.

Disorganised today, datorganised tomorrow.

The PLN, such as it is:

Challenge #04979-M230: Unfamiliar Carer

Calm down, I won't hurt you. Yes I have horns, but I promise, I will help you get well, but you need to calm yourself with no stress. -- BKF

Tamasin didn't know if the battle was won or lost. They barely remembered the hit that took them down. One moment, they were fighting for the righteous cause, dimly aware that the line had broken. The next, they were staring at a roof made out of whatever happened to be closest to

Challenge #04978-M229: Just Like Kids in a -- Oh Dear

A ship of pirates who think that human kids are easy to manage, figured just give them snacks, and they'd be calm. Except... they gave the kids lots of sugary snacks and learned a new word. Hyperactivity. -- BKF

It was a very simple plan with one minor flaw. See if you can spot it. First, conquer a scholastic transit vessel and send the adults off to their origin point with the ransom demand. Second, abscond to a secure location whilst keeping

Monday, Last Moving Day

Beloved is shuttling things up in the TARDIS car while Adorable packs, shifts, and chucks relevant objects. So I am pretty much stuck where I am for the day.

On the plus side, I did finally get to make an attempt at Centaur Porridge. Without cloves, because my cloves got chucked.

When I go shopping (likely tomorrow) I shall pick up some cloves, as well as apples, to try perfecting the recipe. Maybe. I made way too much this time and I

Challenge #04977-M228: New Dawn's Day

To celebrate the holy day of the Goddess of birth and renewal, people everywhere are called upon to show their children the way forward and share the day with them, teaching them, connecting with them.

The priests’ intention was a day of family bonding and learning for the next generation.

What they got was Bring-Your-Child-To-Work-Day for a fantasy setting. -- Tergon

Sunday, Mor Stream Stuff

Today, wheel of randomness willing, shall be the premiere of the fifth fucking WIP they're responsible for. Hope you tune in.

I shall be allegedly focussing on the daily tale and the stream moderation.

As for my lovelies, I do believe they are off in Brizvegas scooping up the last of the remaining nonsense over there. I hope it all gets sorted in time.

It's Beloved's Outaversary and once again, I can't get her anything special because all my energy is focussed

Challenge #04976-M227: Two Things Most Needed

Justice (the paladin) getting to know Mercy -- Weirdlet

[AN: Calls back to Made With Feeling ]

A wandering Paladin is not entirely commonplace, but they are a possibility. Usually before they adopt a pack of Adventurers for reasons that quickly become obvious, the more you know about Adventurers. The same holds true for a wandering Hellkin.

A wandering Hellkin Paladin asks and answers a lot of questions. One that remains unanswered to many is, Why would a god welcome a Hellkin as

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

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.

Onwards to

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
