Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

Monday, Rain, Shenanigans, and the Leyland's Tour

It's absolutely PISSING down as I write this, so that just means super extra fun times on the Leyland's Tour today. Especially because one more stop means extra driving in the wet weather. Huzzah.

At least I know where I can get cheaper fuel now.

Nevertheless, it promises to be a long, and rather soaked day.

Added to the shenanigans are the back-up reads [I'm not totally ghosting the Archive as of yet] and the continuance of the Promptcast's readings. For which I moderate.

I shall have Mayhem with me to do the bending and picking up of heavy objects. With luck I shall get that knot out of my butt before the sleep study nonsense.

I need every luck today.

Today's story will be happening when I get back from the Tour.

Challenge #04886-M137: Go Back to the Fire

A devotee of Khasis and Gibil, the fire and the forge, arrives to give libations to the Divines. Only, the devotee becomes confused, as one God is singular non-binary and the other is a hypostasis of multiple divine aspects…

Offerings to gods can vary in substance, but agree on theme. Various deities all over Alfarell are offered various liquids to drink. Few take blood

Sunday, Stream Shenanigans

Yesterday's bed rest seems to have paid off. I have a bit more mobility than yesterday and the theory is that if I keep the problem leg wiggling, then I can maintain that mobility.

Either way, I can hope that full recovery is in sight.

Firefox has decided to devour memory, so I had to prune my tab hoard. Fingers crossed, I have established equilibrium.

Seems I can either watch videos OR edit something. FUN. Not.

Am now working on reducing the

Saturday, Desperate Measures

My ability to move around fades the longer that I sit put at the compy, and that's all that I do all day. So I am attempting to do my daily nonse whilst on or close to the bed. It encourages me to keep moving and thereby gently flex my knotted gleutes.

I have Mayhem doing everything else around the house that I do, and will be calling for breakfast and so forth at a later hour.

It's going to make taking

Challenge #04884-M136: Testing Ground

After a long, winding journey, Wraithvine approaches a brand new settlement along a trading river for a well deserved rest.

The point was that there had been a village in this location. Or within the same idea of the location. Fresh water. Arable land. Excellent climate. Wraithvine found it by memory, but

Challenge #04883-M135: Divine Real Estate

An older god. One who had been old when the world was new. From before even the time of the dragons, before the elves came into existence, whispered gently, and not unkindly, to Wraithvine. "If your body is ever destroyed, you, your home, and your cat, will be joining us in the immortal plains. So that your work in the world that you so love, will never end." -- Anon Guest

In the beginning, the legends say, there were Dragons. The Great

Of all the evils a modern world could commit, one of the top ten was dumping snare wire in the wilderness. Wraithvine considered it part of hir duties to find and destroy it whenever ze wandered through any part of nature. Judging strictly by the howling and snarling,

Wednesday, Still Catching Up

I owe Patreon stuff. I owe the rant installment. I did manage some other writing this morning. I dunno about putting it anywhere.

My right hip firkin HATES me today, so the spawn are taking over bread production.

I tried a heat pack and it did give some relief, but getting up to reheat that thing is promising a lot of pain.

I might have to get one of the spawn to reheat the heat pack for me.

I'll stick to moving

Nine Princes and Princesses from across the realms receive a mysterious letter, that they must attend an important gathering of unspecified content; one to be held in a peaceful land which has no quarrel with any of the nobles.

What unfolds next surprises everyone involved… -- Deathshead419

Eighteen letters. Each on high-class paper,

Challenge #04879-M130: Sad Beige Life

My parents were cold narcissists. As an adult, once they signed everything to me, I signed our entire solar system to the alliance. I have plenty to live on, my mansions, my gardens, and so much more. But now the halls are full of life and youthful laughter. It actually feels like a home, not a museum. My parents? They live in their wing, their own little world. I'm letting them live the remainder of their golden years in peace. Under watch,
