Monday, Day 0, Loooonnnng Monday

Plague News: Six new cases, all imports. There's thirty-six total active cases, twenty-five of them are in hospital. Australia's at 92.8% first vax, 88% fully vaxxed. Queensland's still tied for last with WA at 87% first vax, 78% fully vaxxed.

I have few plans for today bar catching up on my sleep -_- I woke up two hours ahead of D&D last night and I am wearing the heck out :P

If I write anything else today, it shall be miraculous.

In the news:

  • China playing wargames wrong? Maybe?
  • People in Aus are dying of silicosis
  • Omicron definitely making the kids suffer
  • People are tracking sharks now?
  • School shooter may turn against his parents
  • Alleged time traveler on TikTok makes super vague predictions. I can't wait to see which eight humans get super powers from the sun
  • Bob Dole, dead at 98
  • Volcano blows up in Indonesia
  • Emma Watson resurfaces
  • New landbarges for you to buy

I post story. I sleep.

Challenge #03236-H327: Centaur of Attention

The humans land in a world where the beings they thought were fantasy, are real. Unicorns and centaurs, sentient dragons and faerie folk, all living and working together in a society that had long since learned to put their differences aside. They welcomed the CRC representatives with open arms. -- Anon Guest

It seemed like a fairly agrarian colonial world, at least according to the scans. The first scout ship landed somewhere out of the way to meet with someone who may

Sunday, Day 0, Madness Soon

Plague News: Seven new cases, five local, two imports. Australia's at 92.8% first vax, 88% neat for fully vaxxed. Queensland's tied in last place for the race to 95%... for shame. We're at 87% first vax, 78% fully vaxxed.

Omicron's loose all over the world and I blame Capitalism and Selfishness. This is a disease that hits kids HARD and it's all because Humanity failed to unite and beat the first version over the head all over the world.

I am

Challenge #03235-H326: Pack Bonding Exercises

H: Taking advantage, after long resisting the idea, of their friend's offer, they quietly go into their companion's quarters and crawl in the giant, pillow-filled, nest next to them.

A: Startled, but speaking softly with a tired tone "Hey! What's going on?"

H: "I can't sleep, I had another bad dream, can I stay here tonight?"

A: Gently spoken they smile. "Sure, no problem, I said you could before, didn't I?"

H: "Yeah you did, but I didn't want to bother you.

Saturday, Day 0, Feast Day

Plague News: Six new cases, all imports. There's twenty-four total active cases, sixteen of those are in hospital. Australia's at 92.7% first vax, 87.7% fully vaxxed. Queensland's kind of neck-and-neck for last place with WA. We have 87.0% first vax, 77.7% fully vaxxed, while WA is at 87.2% first vax, 77.2% fully vaxxed.

I have carbs to consume today, part of a map to build in TaleSpire (ugh), and some delightful farting about to do today.

Challenge #03234-H325: Warrior's Honour

"Not like this... NOT LIKE THIS! If I'm going out I'm taking you bastards with me!"

They fly their small, damaged, fighter, the nuclear engine warning of imminent detonation, toward the large hulking warship. It'd been a massive firefight as they defended the escape of the civilians from the raiders.

They awakened in an ICU drawer recovering from radiation poisoning and major injuries. And a military commander's face congratulating them on a job well done. -- Anon Guest

Some lay down their

Friday, Day 0, Ho Boy

Plague news: Three new cases, all locally acquired. There's eighteen total active cases, fourteen of them are in hospital. Australia's at 92.6% first vax, 87% fully vaxxed. Queensland's at 86.8% first vax, 77% fully vaxxed.

I have starters to feed, bikkie to make, bikkie to consume, catbox to see to, more dungeon to build, and maybe some time to play.

Streaming my flash fictions is helping me stay on track, so I shall be keeping on with that through next

Challenge #03233-H324: Minor Disaster Control

A sleepy human child care provider is trying their damndest to stay awake while watching over a mixed nursery of kids, Havenworlder and Deathworlder, but they have another hour before the malfunctioning door is finally fixed and the parents can come in and collect the kids. - Anon Guest

One more Deregger colony had gone down in flames, as Deregger colonies were wont to do. Their installations would not be wasted, but they did have to be upgraded. People were still moving

Thursday, Day 0, Runaround

Plague news: Two new cases, both imports. There's sixteen total active cases, fourteen of those are in hospital. Australia's at 92.5% first vax, 87% fully vaxxed. Queensland's at 86.7% first vax, 76.8% fully vaxxed.

Experts are saying the symptoms of Omicron are "milder" but that's no true guide to how bad it is. I'm calling it now. Thousands of leaders are going to dismiss the potential threat of Omicron and then learn later on in the year that Long

Challenge #03232-H323: Close Encounters of the Absurd Kind

A level 2 Deathworlder looks much like the old lycanthropes of legend. However, Human children are entranced by their soft fur rather than be afraid. -- Anon Guest

She had heard a word so often that it may well be a slur. The Humans in her aura tended to call her a "werewolf". As far as Mani could tell, they didn't mean anything horrible by it. It was just a nickname. And anyway, Deathworlders tended to stick together with their odd variants

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Plague news: two new cases, both imports. There's fourteen total active cases, twelve of them are in hospital. Australia's at 92% first vax, 87% fully vaxxed. Queensland's at 86.5% first vax, 76% fully vaxxed.

The new variant, the direct result of first-world countried hoarding vaccinations, is now loose in the first world. Talk about reaping what you sow.

If only we'd done for the plague what we did for fucking smallpox. If only the orange canker sore hadn't decided his ego

Challenge #03231-H322: An Excellent Motivator

Human Ren had gotten out of the ICU drawer and was in physical therapy. His two new friends watched him like a hawk, taking shifts so one could rest while the other looked over him. It may've been a bit of a pain for the physical therapist, but it was astonishing how uplifting it was to have your own cheering section while struggling to regain bodily movement again.

Tuesday, Day 0, Patreon

Plague news: Five new cases, all imports. There's twelve total active cases, seven of those are in hospital. Australia's at 92% first vax, 86.8% fully vaxxed. Queensland's still second-last at 86% first vax, 76% fully vaxxed. It's looking like NSW will be the second to get to that precious >95% status. ACT was first.

I'm posting my bullshit on Patreon today, then working on Dungeon then farting about. Possibly a mix of Koshdelia and Satisfactory.

I'm having some fun with this.

Challenge #03230-H321: One Close Call in a Tourist Destination

The humans were laughing about something. That was, by itself, potential cause for alarm. The contents of their conversation, heard between bouts of laughter, was even more alarming.

"And then, he looked up into my eyes and froze."

"And then?"

"Then he turned, realized that he had to look UP into your eyes, and looked like he was about to mess his pants!"

"And he said something, right? I didn't catch it."

"He apologized for the inconvenience, said he didn't mean anything

Monday, Day 0, Long Day Ahead

Plague news: Three new cases, all local. There's seven total active cases, four of them are in hospital. Australia's at 92% first vax, 86.7% fully vaxxed. Queensland is still lagging massively behind almost everyone else at 86% first vax, 75.9% fully vaxxed. The only state/territory in last place is still WA.

I have few plns beyond getting some rest and attending the Tale Foundry read. Mondays are my low-stress day now. Mostly because I get all of my stress
