Challenge #04270-K252: Subtle and Fast Fury

Wraithvine is a very patient being. That patience has been learned over many, many, centuries. But when ze is truly angry, watch out. This brat was NOT listening, kept trying to kick Lilbit, grabbing Bribird and bad-mouthing Gikka. A good chastisement was in order, and a stern lesson to parents who was letting the child become so spoiled. -- Anon Guest

Heaven help the people who think they can get away with anything short of murder. It might have to, in this case. Mostly because a singular brat had tried to kick Lilbit and shove Bibrid or smack Gikka for the fifth time.

Once is an accident. Twice is a co-incidence. Thrice is a pattern.

For the fourth attempt, Wraithvine stepped smoothly between the child and their target. "Where are your parents, little one?"

"I don't gotta tell you crap, knife-ear! Lemme have fun or I'm tellin' on you! You're gonna get hanged and chopped up and sold by the ounce."

Sunday, Bridge to Brisbane

I have checked the weather and wearing the long excercise pants would boil my thunder thighs. So today is the first day of...

Summer Wear

This in combo with the pure polyputthekettleon branded shirt means that I will be a lather by the time I reach the finish line. Also the world will be mercilessly exposed to my pasty white hairy legs. Deal with it.

And I'm only doing the 5K walk because I know I'm capable. I need to

Challenge #04269-K251: A Singular Sanctuary

They travelled with Wraithvine for a while, learning to cope with so many years. Though they were very few and far between, they learned there were others like themselves. So they founded the Immortal Village. Where people with same, or similar, condition could live in peace, help others from, and find solace together. Important part, was Waithvine helped found it.

Saturday, Health Update and PLNs

After days and days of applying goanna oil heat cream combined with careful stretching, the corks in my calves have vanished. Huzzah.

Just in time for me to cork them again doing the 5K walk in the Bridge to Brisbane tomorrow. Look for my dumb pink hat if you find footage of it.

I'm still finding out how I'm going to get there on time. Travel is going to be "interesting" tomorrow.

Today... I'm dealing with a Cyclone Headache [taken my meds,

Challenge #04268-K250: New Record For the Longest-Running Experiment

The humans have a plan. It's both a bit frightening, and incredibly exciting. They intend to seek out a solar system with a huge asteroid belt, but no planet in the habitable zone. Their experiment? To create a warm, stable, earth-sized planet, and then terraform it to be a Havenworld. Will it work? -- Anon Guest

They went down to deepest-time wormhole to a system in the midst of formation. They were geologists, biologists, astrophycists, and a whole pack of scientists of

Friday, Lo Batt Issues

I gotta clean the catio today. I have to go fetch Mayhem at some point. I'm behind on my imaginary progress with Pseuducku because I didn't do jack about making a thing happen for/in it.

And you know what?

Screw it.

If I need a breather, I'm taking a breather. If I want to relax, I'm going to relax. If I need sleep, I'm taking a nap.

If I need hugs... I'll try to arrange more time with the QPP.

The body is being examined in an autopsy bay. At a glance at the scene it was an open and shut case of [slip and slide] off a roof. But a few blood stains were darker compared to the rest, shards of glass found adjacent to the wound, even though the streets was cleaned and no windows were damaged. finally bruises around the neck indicated strangulation.

The fall was a cover up. -- Anon Guest

The body did fall. There were witnesses

Thursday, Further Disorganisation

So here's my day so far:

Wake late and commence the self-care regimes
Foot torture and commence stretches
Drive Mayhem to work
Drive home
Attempt to complete stretches
Phone call from Mayhem
Drive there and back again to fetch Mayhem
Complete stretches and half a chapter.

and now it's 2 in the afternoon and I am just now getting to today's blog entry. Offerings very soon, I should hope.

I also hope to figure out buttons in Gamemaker, but I'll probably end

Challenge #04266-K248: Mistaken Identity

The small child nearly crashed into Gikka and stepped on the disguised Bibrid to hide among Wraithvine's robes. When gently asked the fear, the child admitted to playing in the house despite their mother's warnings, and breaking a window.

"Mommie's gonna be SO mad!"

"Oh child, you know, if you tell her you're sorry, and admit what you did, I bet she won't be mad long." -- The New Guy

It was raining, but not heavily enough to drive people indoors or

Wednesday, Rant Due and Shaking the Debuffs

I am smearing so many products on myself and swallowing so many others. I smear stuff on my corked calves to try and get them to firkin RELAX. I smear stuff on my hair to keep the colours looking neat. I smear stuff on my face to stop large chunks of it flaking off. And there's the more normal smearing of stuff on my teeth to keep them clean.

There's one medication I inhale, and that's my preventer.

I won't go into

They found me in my best hiding nook after Jax went to safer territories. The eldest, and quietest of the Nae'hyn engineer-priests found me being very still in the ship's equivalent of the wainscotting. Somewhere between overhead and bulkhead and something associated with crawlspace for very small crawlers.

I learned a lot later that

Tuesday, Patreon Perhaps and Pseuducku

I have a day of minimal expectations, so of course I'm piling expectations on myself.

I have updated my Pseuducku pages. Check it out if you're interested. I encourage my user base [Hi, Mum!] to do that. It's linked in the Menu.

I think I'll be sharing a fanfic with my Patrons in order to plump out the yield this week. I don't have a lot of Archive work either and I am trying to not feel bad about this.

Challenge #04264-K246: Thanks Enough

Despite your aversions, you did this... for me?

"All life is precious, but, I knew you could not survive on plants."

And for my children.

"You were ill, I'm just glad my poor skills were enough."

Thank you. You're the first human I've ever met that has ever been this kind.

"You're welcome, my friend."

Monday, Errands Ahoy

I don't have a story to share with the Archive today, and I need to get stuff and things at place. So therefore I am headed out to get all the things we need.

Might be a pinch, this week. Because I had to pay for my hair, because Beloved got an e-bike for the work commute. A necessary expenditure, true. But also a hecking expenditure. A needful dent in the wall of money between us and a true disaster.

Challenge #04263-K245: Small, Frail, and Scared

An adorable set of small puppies went after King Kormwind's tail, Wraithvine's clothes, Gikka's tail, and were trying to chase and play with Birbrid and Lilbit. The caretaker apologized as they were trying to care for, and find homes for, this sweet pack of little strays. -- Anon Guest

[AN: Two of these people are in different times and continents. AUGH! Quick thinking: Doesn't have to be King Kormwind IX, doesn't have to be the Gikka already established]
