Challenge #03355-I067: Diminished Concerns

They asked only that their injuries be treated and they be allowed to be on their way in peace, after saving a Pax Humanis Sanctuary Planet. Nope, not enough. The Pax Humanis decides to send one of their more experienced, and gentler - by their standards, individuals to go and work as a permanent bodyguard for captain and crew, if the crew and captain will allow it, of course.

The Human was large, muscular, and possessed a stare that evaluated everyone and everything they looked at as a potential target. She looked like all she had to do was flex and the livesuit encapsulating her would burst. "You saved our world," said Human Daiz. "Many would've left us to die."

Not for the first time, Captain Gorx wished that ze could have been one of the many. Pax Humanis Enforcers were classed as divine intervention or elemental disasters. An entire planet full of them[1] boggled the mind.

Just one boggled the mind.

Tuesday, Anniversary Gifts

Today is our Silver Anniversary! HUZZAH! And I already have the best gift in the world...

My Beloved is back home!

Oh it is such a relief. She has new meds prescribed to her by the doctors [since you were worried about that, Mum] and a schedule of check-ups and experts to make sure those meds are doing what they should be doing.

As said in previous blogs, one of her diabetes medications didn't work too great with being on Keto. The

Challenge #03354-I066: Another Go Around

Kal awakened in a land of mist. Glowing spheres, representatives of the gods, with their verdict. They were going to be merciful. They were going to give this man, who worked so hard to undo the crimes he committed, a second chance. His old partner was writhing in hell, but he may yet escape that fate. Reborn once more to find the path as a healer, rather than a killer.

Blargh.

I can only try my best. It's all

Challenge #03353-I065: The Ravell'd Threads of Fate

Wraithvine learns that Ma has the ability COMMAND. The power to order people to do things when done in a commanding tone of voice, and they seem completely unable to disobey.

From this: https://peakd.com/fiction/@internutter/challenge-03305-i017-one-arrow-no-problems -- FightingFit

Wraithvine was drawing glowing runes in the air even as ze descended the stair, weaving hir memory of the event into the runes with the other hand. An Elf's natural grace saved hir from a far more ignominious descent. Kevin was

Sunday, Madness Day

Beloved is improving from the worst she was suffering. Yay. I did have to run a mission of mercy for her so she could have peak comfort in the temple of misery.

I may or may not be going back today. If Beloved does not stop me, I am GOING.

The good news is that she's getting better. The medication that caused all the problems is now off her health regime. So no more return visits for that. Huzzah.

I have been

Challenge #03352-I064: Just in Their Nature

Amatu and Wraithvine have a long talk about the enchanted bell and the fact it so badly affects wizards like hir, in addition to the fact it is one of the most powerful artifacts Wraithvine's seen in their very, very long lifetime. -- Anon Guest

Out of Amatu's hands, it was harmless. Nobody else could make it sound like he did. It was also resistant to any kind of identification, which made it merely annoying.

"I mislike it," announced Wraithvine, having exhausted

Saturday, Feast Day, Health Update

For those of you following the generic soap opera that is my life... it turns out that Beloved's diabetes medication and the Keto lifestyle do not mix.

We're going to have to make sure she has carbs enough to deal with the meds. Or get off the meds and stay on the keto. Whichever is best for her.

We know what it is. Great. We know why it is. Fantastic. I currently have no idea how long it's going to take to

Challenge #03351-I063: The Nature of Mothers

Ma Oxbrydl is separated from the others by a very arrogant warrior who intends to use her to lure her companions into a trap. But you know, never underestimate a woman who's skilled with knitting needles. -- Anon Guest

Her mouth felt like a century-old dovecote that had never been cleaned. Replete with the dead doves. Her head felt like the clapper of a bell. One of the big ones that had been ringing the hour in a clock tower. Her stomach

Friday, Disaster

Remember Beloved's crook tum? Turns out she's been throwing up what looks like blood for three days.

FUN.

We tried calling 13SICK, no medics available. Tried booking at the local quack - two appointments immediately, and the plague protocols meant we'd have to ring in. By which time the two remaining appointments would be GONE.

...hi ho hi ho, off to the hospital we had to go...

The hospital is currently under rennos. So first we had to locate the dang carpark.

Challenge #03350-I062: A Work In Progress

Hell is the last place anyone wants to be. I admit I've done a lot of horrible things in my life. In all honesty, I expected this. The Bible pretty much got it down. The Blazing fire, the screams of the damned, the smell of brimstone, and chocolate chip cookie? -- Anon Guest

My name is William, and I have devoted my life to chocolate. The flavours, the artistry, the wonders I could make with it. I may not have been one

Thursday, proposal, and shenanigans

I do not have much time this morning so I make an effort to be quick.

Bullet points:

  • Re-proposed to Beloved as part of the pre-anniversary celebrations
  • Beloved has a tummy bug. Not related
  • Mayhem has a job interview
  • I'm trying to build the Box of House as a base for my players
  • I still want to have merch but I have little in the way of time today because of the above
  • If I don't hurry, I won't get my story

Challenge #03349-I061: A Study in Paper Goods

What is it about toilet paper that people hoard it in 'lockdown' here? If not inspiring pick a place and find some other 'must have' to clutter up the place. -- KnitNan

Today's unit in Terran History is the Covid-19 Pandemic. An analysis of incompetence. Yes, yes, some of you are from the polities identified here and are taking offense. The point remains that mistakes were made and some of them were on purpose. People died. We are here to analyse the

Wednesday, Wordpress and Anniversary

Beloved and I will be celebrating our Silver Anniversary real soon now. Methinks today's date will be all about buying each other something silver. She's worth it, I know that.

For the rest of today, I am trying to gather peeps from the D&D game to help design the Box of House.

A brief explain:

  • Players got hold of an item called a "Folding Boat", this got quickly nicknamed "the box of boat" in game.
  • This INSTANTLY gave them the

Challenge #03348-I060: Morning Mayhem

Families are hard enough to get there on time. What about mixed group of small aliens, and Carer(s) taking them for an 'outing'. -- KnitNan

"Zolt, stop playing in your sib's livesuit, it doesn't fit," Pripa Lylon Kazemahou was still working on the lunchbox assembly line, but that didn't stop him from monitoring the kids' activity whilst his hands were occupied. Even a Gyiik's four arms were not enough to deal with such a full family. "Now put on the gloves
