Challenge #04741-L357: Precise Targetting

They are hunting their target on this stinking backwater of a rock, one whose actions caused many deaths on a world the CRC is only now able to start rehabilitating. A being that was heavily drugged by their target attacks Jay but, instead of killing them, Jay shows compassion for one who's yet another victim of the target, and only knocks them out so medics can help them recover. -- Anon Guest

It's the best thing to learn in Pax Humanis. If you want to be let out more often to hunt, you only got the bad guy. It was rare that the CRC decided that an installation was beyond hope of redemption, and set the indiscriminate murderers loose on a place.

Jay knew the look of an addict well. He'd gained familiarity with the look of the target's addicted victims over the time Jay had been hunting. He clocked it in a cold second.

Training took over Jay's muscles and movement. Avoid the weapon, use the attacker's imbalance against them. Disarm. Apply stun disk. Manipulate into recovery pose. Tag for the cleanup team to bag, rehabilitate, and release later on. Continue on tracking the target. He was getting closer. The target's victims were showing less debilitation under the effects of the drug suite. Which meant less time taking it.

::Singing:: Everything's falling apart and life sucks! (jazz hands)

My phone battery is inflating. My laptop is misbehaving. There's a threat to our economic stability that may or may not happen and our dear government is planning to make life more complicated and expensive for MeMum.

Hooray.

The laptop drama really got going yesterday when I dragged it and the keyboard to make it go to some Experts in Brisbane to see about a blood issue [I'm fine, my dosages just needed

Challenge #04740-L356: Unusual Analysis Procedure

Story told from the Point of View of a Vampire whose boring night job is tasting blood at the blood lab analyzing blood to determine various chemical details, diseases, etc. -- Anon Guest

My name is Tae Devereaux I am a Hematological Dilettante.

To be frank, there's not a lot of jobs that would welcome a vampire. Like, disposal services for Kosher or Halal butchers. Or helping out the blood spatter folks at crime scenes. Sure, we're fast and accurate, but we

Monday, Backups and Appointments

I have one eye on my (decaying) phone so that I know when I should take off for the medicos in the middle of Brisbane. Tomorrow, I'm offski for a Physio appointment. At least it's not too far to wander for that.

BUT I also have to wander into the zombie hordes in order to acquire a small something-something for Beloved.

And I need petrol. Bleh.

'Tis the season to be expensive, alas.

We will survive this. It just feels like I

Challenge #04739-L355: Birthday Wish

Visions guided Wraithvine to a village isolated on a forested island just off a wild coast. There ze finds a village where a fortnight before everyone over the age of 13 vanished. The children are distraught, food is running low, and the twelve year old girl who’s birthday is only days away cannot sleep.

What has happened to the adults and can Wraithvine get to the bottom of the mystery in time? -- Deathshead419

There was something deeply wrong with this

Sunday, Streams and Stuff

I shall be dividing up the spoils of the bikkie baking betwixt recipients, today. It's the last day I can do it.

There's also streams to attend and stories to write. Fun to be had with my assembled bits and bobs and making sure everyone gets a fair share of the spoils. With a few concessions regarding likes and dislikes.

Minimum of two of a specific type so the recipient can sample them and see WTF I was talking about.

Challenge #04738-L354: The Vanishing Mystic

A Spiritual Guru has been leading on her clientele with tales of a mysterious master who seems always just out of reach. Yet as her tricks of hiding cigarettes and magically “repairing” plates, she hatches a plan to have a fake “master” appear in the window to mollify her marks. And it works, his silhouette enough to keep them in awe and paying her. Only…the man she hired to do the deed tells her that he never made it that night…

Challenge #04737-L353: A Different Kind of Bull

A trio of elves are using their longevity to rig long-term investments in a rather prosperous region, pretending to be a family of knowledgeable businessmen by taking turns as son, father, and grandfather with magic guises. Needless to say, they have amassed a fortune immiserating the humans of these valleys for generations. Though if Wraithvine were to show up it seems unlikely that their scheme would go unnoticed. -- Deathshead419

It was the kind of thing only a long-lived being would notice.

Challenge #04736-L352: Not Another Faerie Tale

A chimneysweep out late at night sees the darndest thing: a carriage racing away from the palace as it turns into a pumpkin. Even stranger, a crystalline slipper falls from the fleeing vehicle, one that fits the chimneysweep perfectly. And then, word spreads through the city that the prince is looking for the lovely lady who wore a glass slipper to his ball. -- Deathshead419

Just like trusting government systems based on waterlogged women handing out swords, one should not chose eligible

Friday, UNFUCKING and other things.

The spare room needs a solid joosh. The house needs degarbaging and we missed rubbish day this week. So it's a derecycling.

And the day after tomorrow, I have to sally forth just to pick up kitty litter. Because Costco was out when I went to pick up other stuff and things.

Bleh.

I have put some laundry on, I have stripped the bed in the spare room and put some of that in the wash. At the expense of my sinuses.

Thursday, Shopping and Nonsense

We're running out of other stuff and I have to brave the pre-crimbo crowds just to get it.

...halp...

I have no idea how exhausted I'm going to be by the time I make it home, so if I am, the story for today will become part of tomorrow's twofer.

And on top of everything else... I need to make bread. Again. That will be starting tomorrow with the Grand Pre-Crimbo Unfuckening so MeMum can stay over for the big day.

Challenge #04735-L351: One Head Under the Crown

A long reigning king has reached the end. The eldest has the strongest claim, yet his rule is unlikely to last long. The middle son is inclined to autocracy, yet, deft in international politics and likely to keep the kingdom at peace. The youngest is quarrelsome with his peers, yet, sympathetic to the plight of his people. And there is the bastard, a playboy likely to leave governing to the parliament except when he wants to indulge.

Wraithvine is called to choose

Wednesday, Baking done with and Rant PLNs

I am DONE with baking for the meanwhile. Thank grop. The kids were left unsupervised with the second batch and accidentally invented something cool because they wouldn't listen to or didn't remember the original instructions.

The original plan: Dip the tops of some bikkies in treacle, then test to see if icing sugar or cornflour stopped them being sticky thereafter. The kids did the dipping and then covered them in caster sugar. AKA table sugar.

The end result is not sticky. Yay.

Such a shame, so YOUNG to be a mass-murder, they're only 10./ "Wait, they're still breathin', tho'."

What? But...such shallow breaths and restraints?/ "Th' nice cat lady an' th' scary guys say use this thingy an' th' bad men won't chase me no more!" -- Anon Guest
