Challenge #05059-M310: Heartfelt Effort

Master Twii's youngest student leads him to a room claiming there's an urgent matter that they need help with. When the door slides open to the massive cargo bay, a huge number of his friends, and those he views as family, shout surprise! They were not sure to the exact date of birthday so... close enough, right?

There is little more amusing than children attempting to be covert for a benevolent cause. There's an energy in the atmosphere around them, besides the fact that they're almost uniformly terrible at secrets.

Whispering too loud. Obviously going on tippy-toes to sneak around. Hiding things very badly behind their back. Obviously lying about what their stuff was for. And, of course, the Ssh-fights.

"No, you shoosh!" Adi insisted.

Challenge #04795-M046: Survived a Year

Humans everywhere love to celebrate new years. And to make sure their friends enjoy it, too, they have huge swarms of drones, and laser shows, rather than fireworks. -- Anon Guest

There was an alert on Companion Gorx's datareader. Human New Year's with further information based on locale as to what those crazed, balding apes were doing. It wasn't the celebration of one small planet's completed orbit, it was the celebration of every Human colony's new year.

Thanks to varying negotiations, the

Challenge #02946-H023: A Trail a Mile Wide

There were marks on the walls, on the low ceilings in the halls. A picture here, a quick search there, showed that they were the marks left by unprotected human feet. Feet too small to belong to adult humans. While this narrowed the suspects down to two, it also raised the questions of "how did they do it?" and "do I really want to know?" -- Anon Guest

In all the known universe, there is little more devastating to an environment than

Challenge #02015-E191: Party Time on No-Longer-Tranquil VII

On the wall was posted the human regiment’s code of conduct/safety instructions:

  1. Do not subtract from the population.

  2. Do not add to the population (looking at you Jared).

  3. Do not end up in the hospital, the news, or in jail.

  4. If you do end up in jail, establish dominance quickly. -- Anon Guest

It was a set of rules above the airlock door. Entitled, When Visiting. And could be summarised as, "No killin', no thrillin', just chillin'." Which every squad

Social Obligations

Chaos is attending a party, today. This is a chance for me to network with other Parentals, and social interaction practice for a chronic introvert. No, not Chaos. Think again. Yep. Me.

Chaos is going to be fine. She'll just leap in while I'm still solving five-dimensional social conversation math. I'll wear my little SPG gear pin just in case there's a fellow Steampunk nerd there. I always have high hopes of making a new, nerdy friend.

And if someone asks... and
