Challenge #03583-I294: Sufficient Motivation

A Tiefling learns how the people that some disparagingly called "Naga" all but worship Tiefling-kind. And eagerly take in any such children raising them well. -- Anon Guest

[AN: I'm moving this to Alfarell where the devilish children of "darkness" are called Hellkin]

Kala gave up on humanity at age five, when someone tried to chop off their tail for the eighth time in their memory. Having learned to read in the gutter schools, they sought any and all information about places that welcomed a Hellkin with open arms.

The mountains of Whitekeep were too far.

However, the steaming jungles of Brustraynia and the Sserith who dwelled within... They revered their Hellkin, according to the books. Treated them like gods. Kala had their doubts, but it was better than dodging cleavers every time some rich asshole upped the bounty on Hellkin tails.

Saturday, Unriddling Continueth

So the record player thing is turning into a bit of a saga. Whoops. Nothing is ever easy because snobs about audio stuff had to make things difficult.

The new power cord works, yay, but the speakers that should have been plug-and-play are incapable of anything more than a squeak. On one speaker instead of two.

We needed an amp.

Good news! We have one of those. Bad news! It weighs about fifteen hundred kilos [hyperbole] and bent the shelf whenever it

Challenge #03582-I293: Unlikable When Angry

Going aboard station, they took a deep breath and reported to security. They asked to see medical because they had a problem. A bad temper. They were normally very kind, but when they lost their temper, they had a very hard time stopping if they started to swing, and last time, they hurt someone very badly. They were looking for help, because they were afraid, if they got mad enough, it would happen again. -- Anon Guest

"Anger. Inhibitors," repeated Medik Fleam,

Friday, Unfuckening and Unriddling

The record player is now in its proper place! Yay. Now the problem is that the power cord isn't powering the thing. Boo. It's a hellaciously expensive record player, so I doubt the whole thing has gone to Silicone Heaven.

It's probably the power cord. And if it isn't the power cord, then it's the power plug. We shall be doing some investigations when both of us are conscious.

I really hope that we're not down an entire hellfuck expensive record player

Challenge #03581-I292: Weighted Memories

Other than times on official duty, our human often wears a backpack with small, but very heavy, metal balls. Especially when they were on the small exercise area set up for them that included some treadmills, exercycles, and other equipment. We wonder, why burden themself like that while exercising, especially since it's a normal 1 grav environment already? -- Anon Guest

Humans, it is widely known, are strange. Human Xia is stranger than most. When not on duty, she purposely weighs herself

Thursday, Rushed and Bamfoozled

I forgot about Wordpress Wednesday, yesterday. Caught up this morning with what it was likely to be anyway: another installation of the fanficcy version of A Devil's Tale. The pro version of which is going to be 111 chapters and is STILL nowhere near being finished.

I'm getting closer to individuating all the chapters for mum. I may change the folder name so it's more universal. And if the Master Document won't let me edit it any more, I can always write

Challenge #03580-I291: For Want of a Toaster

A person is watching some old, archived, videos of humans Pre-Shattering. Some videos showing a place called Amerikka and an event called "Black Friday". Where hundreds of humans end up trampling some others, injuring and killing some, just to get into a store to buy cheap, disposable, items. -- Anon Guest

The theatre marquee declared it to be Archival Footage Viewing and Classification: Pre-Shattering Terra. Which should be enough warning for anyone. Curiosity, an almost fatal Human flaw, drew Kam in like

Wednesday, Wordpress & Date Night

Beloved's plan for this evening is to Go Somewhere outside of our normal travels and see what we can see. It was my duty to pick out the place, so I chose one with a lot of parks and at least one eatery that wasn't Maccas.

I have no idea if this is going to be a majority of the day thing, or an evening thing. We shall see.

If it's in the evening only, then I have a chance to do

Challenge #03579-I290: Rewarded Benevolence

They'd lived most of their lives scratching up just enough Time to survive, even with the jobs they took on. Now they, and their beloved "fluffies" had incorporated because so much Time was rolling in by the decades they didn't know what to do with it. Then came the Idea! A charity, carefully disguised, siphoning time off to Dereggers who were struggling just to survive. Giving them a chance to escape the oppression they suffered.

It is from this. https://peakd.com/

Tuesday, Patreon + Shrink

I think I shall be kind to myself today. There's a lot to tax my energies in spite of my best efforts.

As the title suggests, I'm chatting with my Shrink, today. There's also the Patreon posts to do, as well as the chambering, summarising, tagging, and individuation to do.

On the plus side, I now have the shelf I got for my birthday installed. Well. Stage One.

I've yet to enquire about Stage Two.

Beloved has Wanderlust, so tomorrow's date night

Challenge #03578-I289: Creatures of the Night

Yes, we are vampires, that's true, but we do NOT take from the unwilling. No BUTS! Yes I'm aware of our nature, and that we must drink blood. We only take small amounts, enough to survive, and only from WILLING DONORS!

Fortunately, you left them alive. You will IMMEDIATELY treat their injury and we will make restitution. And if you pull this stunt again, I will, PERSONALLY, hand you to the Watch to be stuck in a sun-cage, understand me?? -- Lessons

Challenge #03577-I288: A Second Chance

Amatu, Wraithvine, and their friends now develop a plan to save Wraithvine's litch friend, frienemy? It may not work, but it's a solid plan. Between finding a willing necromancer, and Amatu's immense gifts, they may be able to save the dark one. But is Amatu willing to lose their mortality in the process? Will Wraithvine accept him as an immortal brother?

Sunday, Tale Foundry and Game Night

Tale Foundry has delayed to another day, so I'm filling in time until Stream O'Clock. Which means I might have time to resume some of my bullshit getting the entry done before the prompt is announced.

None of the folks who can share a game are able to play with me, so I shall be streaming more of the Cat Game. Yay.

The usual stuff will continue after I have a look at the poll on Tale Foundry's Patreon. The good news

Challenge #03576-I287: Close Encounter, Near Miss

The person LOOKS like they're a Knomira harassing a Havenworlder and grabbing at their child. Until, suddenly, another being is grabbed and restrained who had been stalking the Havenworlder, and the person admits they acted in that way to keep themselves between the stalker and the Havenworlder, who had been trying to kidnap the Havenworlder's youngster. They apologize for the scare, they had only been trying to help. -- Anon Guest

Roughgrit Station had only recently been cleared for Havenworlders. They were
