Challenge #03483-I195: Don't Touch or Else

A very arrogant soldier in town shoves past Wraithvine and friends to scream at a person who was carefully packing some exotic pets into their carry cages to take them to the next town. Wraithvine warns the guard "Do NOT touch the animals!" The guard ends up with Wraithvine trying to save what's left of a badly poisoned hand. -- Anon Guest

It happened so fast. From, "Oi! Do you have a license to be doing that?" through, "Don't touch those!" to, "Don't tell me what to do, I am an officer of the LAW." And then the officer who apparently knew everything clamped his hand around a bright yellow microdragon with brilliantly blue spots on its hide.

Microdragons have a stinger at the end of their tails, and the blue-spotted microdragon's venom is the most potent of them all.

Wraithvine had to act fast. The blue-spotted microdragon, now free to go where it whist, flew directly for its handler and hissed at the officer. The officer who was still falling over. With millennia of experience at hand, Wraithvine's components pouch was more of a components backpack. Ze had it off and was searching for the right parts of the right spell before the officer had time to bounce. The stung hand was already starting to dissolve.

Thursday, Camp for Chaos

Today's the day that Chaos leaves for a grand adventure in the wilderness. She's been on one before and wanted to be on this one.

I get her back on Friday afternoon.

She's already dressed and ready for her adventures. Eager to get out there and enjoy the scenery.

I... am trying to be calm about it all. Again.

Today's focus will be on my usual content runs and attempting progress on my projects. Learning how to do a thing, perhaps.

But

Challenge #03482-I194: The Time-Out Chamber

A Knomira is locked up for throwing a very violent temper tantrum in a shop which caused a large amount of damage to property and some injuries to various cogniscents. Now they're throwing another violent tantrum, because they're still locked up, and being required to go to therapy. -- Anon Guest

The habitat was a pale and inoffensive grey. Every possible surface was padded with cellulose fabric and cellulose stuffing. It did not help Marciatrude's general mood to know that any surface

Wednesday, Date Night, and Wordpress

I think, at last, that I am ready to attempt codifying the rights and responsibilities of my pet universe. I will attempt to cover them from basic to complicated needs.

I hope to cover them all, but there's bound to be gaps. So I shall consider it a "living" document whilst I, at least, live.

Other than that, perhaps our date night should be cheap and at home so we can afford everything.

My phone bricked and my email decided to go

Challenge #03481-I193: Let's Dumb That Down For You

Despite multiple times being told NOT to do it, a Knomira ends up mixing multiple cleaning chemicals to "Clean their room properly." Ends up in an ICU pod with many in hazmat suits trying to clean the mess. -- Lessons

When she woke up, Iyn had the terrifying realisation that she was not breathing. She could glimpse the edges of some complicated machinery on her face and chest. She could not move. The screen above her eyes faded out from colourful blobs

Tuesday, Patreon and Content Creation

My kind Patrons are getting more storydump and world-building today. I am doing at least ONE more chamber in TaleSpire and one more thing for Alfarell, then I shall either sit and write or go make a thing in the Minecraft server or fart around.

Tale Foundry should be activating their writing competition at some point and I have a thing ready to go. You see it first on my Patreon if you're paying enough. Or if you're a part of the

Challenge #03480-I192: Same Song, Different Singers

A ruler had just ascended the throne, and began to look into the reports of what was going on in the kingdom. They knew some of it, but until their father retired, there was little they could do. Now, they were going to crack down on the mistreatment that so many, like the Tieflings, Kobolds, and other "lesser" races, were receiving at the hands of the authorities of this nation. -- Anon Guest

Being unwelcome is a self-defeating life. One is judged,

Long Monday, Low Expectations

The crew and I have attempted to play several games in one sesh. Rutrum got sick of Minecraft, and I get it. The game can get on your pecs if you're not careful.

But we had fun, anyway.

The remainder of my morning is dedicated to the story stream, then letting Beloved take over the parenting at least for this morning. Then I must discuss how to remove mods from our versions of Satisfactory. Or at least turning them off.

Because sharing

Challenge #03479-I191: Ring the End of Melancholy

See the comments on this link for the prompt? Long story short, he's been sent by the gods into the elf's life because Wraithvine NEEDS him.

[AN: The comment in question is, "The more I read of Amatu the more I really think his quest is to help WRAITHVINE bring the light back into hir life. I'm starting to think the poor immortal elf has endured so much pain hir heart is starting to

Sunday, Game Nite

We're still two more days away from payday, and squirming our way out from under the meteor of bills that have had us more or less hostage this past couple of weeks.

Life gets expensive.

Late stage capitalism bites big wind.

Come payday, we can get nice things. I might even be able to pay for Jolie's three-figure dental bill. I already feel guilty about waiting this long to get it fixed.

I'm also running out of pre-made meals and we are

Challenge #03478-I190: Staying Up For Storytime

It's late at the Inn, but Vee can't sleep so sneaks out of the room to go down to sit by the fireplace and get some tea. The child of a family that's also visiting sits near Vee and asks her to tell a story about her adventures. -- Anon Guest

"You do understand that I'm twelve," said Vee. "Twelve-year-olds aren't expected to be Adventuring very much."

The kid, half Vee's age and full of fanciful thoughts, scowled at this. "But you're

Saturday, teh PLN?

I need a wrist support now that I'm playing mouse-heavy games with my crew of international maniacs. Beloved might know where I can get one that has not been transformed into Anime Boobs.

I'm still calling it a tiddy rest. Because that's where my brain lives.

Today, I am actually going to learn how Unreal Engine works. Play around with it. If I can't make Kosh, I can at least make his brother. And then twiddle around somewhere else with the build

Challenge #03477-I189: You're Adopted Again

It is my honest opinion, reading your stories, that Amatu and Wraithvine are becoming as close as brothers. Even if they are not by blood, the bond is obviously forming. -- Anon Guest

[AN: Amatu and Wraithvine are vastly different in ages.]

Sometimes realisation creeps up on a mind like a nervous houseguest at a party where they only know a couple of people. Though in this case it isn't awkwardly asking where the bathroom is. In other times, just like now,

Friday, Unfuckening But Tired

I have a catio to clean, a bikkie to make, and I'm already working on minimum sleep. WHEEEEEeeeeeee....

Coffee is not working rn.

I might just do my stream and then slug off because so dang tired. Get to the other stuff when I'm properly rested.

This, naturally, is a cue for everyone with a dirt bike or a motorcycle to have fun times in a round-robin noise-off.

Challenge #03476-I188: Sturdy, Reliable... Ancient

They are stranded on a very primitive world, the technology here being pretty much obsolete. Good thing the friend they have with them still knows how to use this old tech. They'll need it to try to call for a lift home.

((Inspired by all the videos of teens and younger trying to use things like walkmans and rotary phones, and realizing these once very common pieces of technology are completely foreign to them.)) -- Lessons

They should not be here. They
