Challenge #04930-M181: Trees in the Way

Wraithvine suddenly loses access to all hir powers for no discernible reason right when it would be very convenient to have them, forcing hir to lean on an alternate source of power. -- Deathshead419

[AN: Considering how Wraithvine has had millennia to multiclass... I might go with anything. This is tangentially related to Important Developments ]

Good news, bad news, good news. Good news, the children were safe and far away from whatever this was by technicality. Bad news, ze couldn't open hir tower to reassure them that everything was fine. Good news, they had the charmed cauldron to make them porridge if all the other supplies and stock ran out. Bad news, ze would inevitably be coming back to a mess.

Good news, ze had centuries of experience in dealing with horseshit like this because bad news, hir magic was inexplicably beyond hir reach.

It was out of Bibrid's too, and the Silver Dragon was not happy with his circumstances. Especially since Dragons instinctually used magic to happily dodge the laws of physics.

Challenge #04929-M180: In Daydreams of Daisies

"I disassociate for one afternoon and now I'm MARRIED?!" -- Your Humble Author

Princess Felicitee Miette Trajydiegh Parleighview de Maunterazz had a habit of retreating into her rich fantasy world and letting her body do what Lithonesse trained it to do. It was much more pleasant in her fantasy world, where she did little more but weave daisy crowns for a long, long queue of creatures happy to wait for her next daisy crown.

Everyone who was schooled in Lithonesse had their

Monday, Shenanigannery

The backup reads [or bitch and share] are off because AMitA's showrunner is having another meltdown. Self-inflicted drama. Showrunner and Council have a knack for casting the worst possible light on things.

What they repeatedly refuse to comprehend is that the folks the Council have cast as irredeemable bogeymen... are the people making the most effort to try and help AMitA.

I am procrastinating everything that needs must be done.

In the agenda today:

  • Powerwash the last quarter of the patio
  • Today's

Challenge #04928-M179: Important Developments

Wraithvine and Bibrid take their two young family members to a beautiful lake for swimming lessons, and they get to meet the fly-dragon. Lilbit isn't impressed with water, but loves sunning herself. -- Bridget Kielas-Fecyk

[AN: Callback to Deserved Reward ]

Children need the best protection in the world - knowing how to survive various situations. How to find good food. How to cook it safely. How to preserve some for travel. How to truly use their gifts.

This day, it was how

Sunday, Stream, Unfucking, and Conflict

I think the fam is tackling the spare bedroom today. Which contains absolute years of hoarding craft supplies. Which Beloved promised, once upon a time, that she would organise.

Some of my SABLE dates back to the 80's.

See yesterday's blog about emotional attachment to things I spent a lot of money on.

There's also my job of moderating the Promptcast story stream. Which may or may not be a thing because the aforementioned clearing of the SABLE. Which promises to be

Challenge #04927-M178: A-Hunting They Will Go

There are ten stuffed heads in my trophy room right now. Two Game Wardens, Seven Hunters, and a Pure Bred Guernsey Cow

They say, when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. And it's a very apropos statement on the Terran Colony of Libertaria. Where every man is an island and all the homes are bulletproof.

They need to be bulletproof, because every spring is hunting season.

Where

Saturday, Unfuckathon

Can't mod today. The fam has come to evict years of packrattus. It's only now, hours after they arrived, that I have had the chance to sit and type anything about it because I also need the nebuliser.

I've been throwing out a lot of stuff I spent a lot of money on, but turned out to be useless. There's also been a huge amount of technoscrattle unearthed from the packrattus of ages.

My back hurts. My feet hurt. I'm almost certain

Challenge #04926-M177: Damned Foolish Stunt

Tilting at windmills -- Deathshead419

Kosh would have to apologise to Artie for insisting this mobile chair be disposable. Even though the autonomous automaton's face was immobile, it nevertheless managed o convey heatbreak and disappointment when he told it, "The chair won't last long anyway. Just make sure it will last long enough."

He'd have a lot of apologies to make if he survived this.

First and most importantly, to his beloved Cordelia, for making her wait nine months for his return

Friday, Everything is Sideways!

The situation in meme: New digs, who dis?

My compy has moved to the new computer room. I am currently tucked neatly into a convenient corner with everything set up nicely. Well. Nicer than a desk full of packrattus, anyway. Everything was working well, last night.

This morning, with very little changed in the way things were set up, the whole rig is no longer functional. All I did physically was add a few desktop gewgaws to my workspace. Make it homey

It's dangerous to go alone -- Spare AMitA Prompt

Pipi raised the sacred weapon and hollered the sacred vow, "I found a stick onna ground, an' now I'm gonna use it! All the power that I found, I don't wanna abuse it!" Their voice echoed in the streets and no other kids called challenge. Nobody else called dibs. The obvious next thing to do was become a Hero.

Which meant that Pipi needed to become a protector and helper to the poor,

Thursday, Physio and Shenanigans

I have a physio appointment this afternoon and a shopping list that is growing into arm length, and no car. Or at least, no car as I write these words.

Just a little stress. As a treat.

On top of all the other stress going on because - once again - the Archive is blowing up with DRAMA.

After damn near two years of being told, AMitA's crew has finally noticed that the numbers are dropping off. This revelation has absolutely nothing

Challenge #04924-M175: Trust to Not Fall

Leap of Faith -- Spare AMitA Prompt

For such a small stone, the Icon of Edass weighed heavily inside a fold of Kosh's gi. As he raced across the rooftops of Arbordeep, he had to wonder how much of the stretched truth he told to Xiolein was something he covertly believed.

It was so easy to believe the artifact was cursed. Those who sought it had killed so many of those who held it. As well as unnumbered innocent bystanders who had

Wednesday, The Unfucking Continueth

Got the soon-to-be-ex computer room's drifts swept up, had a sneezing attack. Keeping tabs on breathing ease for the meanwhile.

The Dutch Oven is coming good. Less rust happened after the second baking incident. After the first one, the rust had become kind-of... fungal shelf looking growths in the bottom of the pot. BUT applications of steel wool, rust eraser, and coconut oil are improving the situation. It is looking better.

I'll be applying extra layers of oil as the days go

Challenge #04923-M174: Monsters in the Night

Shh, they'll hear you -- Spare AMitA Prompt

In the Forest of Giants, a war has raged for centuries.

The Elves did not know that some trees were more alive than others. They did not have reason to ask before the first branch reached out and crushed the first Elf to bent a bivouac into someone's head. The actual war happened because they did not care to ask.

They were Elves. The first people to make civilisation as they defined it. They
