Just an old gamer man looking to scratch out his own way of being remembered. Currently trying to get my book published so if you have a connection, please reach out!

Returning your shopping cart to the corral feels good, sure. But it pales in comparison to a stranger offering to take the cart off your hands since they’re headed inside anyway. That’s pure human coexistence.

Willow “Goldie” Songbird. Tabaxi songstress and headliner at the Glittering Starlight Lounge. She’s a head-turner and knows it, but has no qualms about lifting cash from patrons who see her as nothing but a pretty ornament. She’s also a prior client of Buck’s and remains a valuable informant.

Buck Piper, private eye. Following in his father’s footsteps, Buck joined the academy as soon as he was old enough and made Detective quickly. Frustrated by countless dropped cases due to shoddy police work, he struck it out on his own with his partner Sam and formed Gemineye Investigations.

This needs to be said, loud, and often.

Hazelnut Bushytail. A talented thief with a heart of gold, Hazelnut lives at the top of an apartment building with residents she’s come to call family. When her home is threatened, there’s no price she wouldn’t pay to keep them safe. Art by @ptgho.bsky.social

Krouri Kukri, heir to the Crier Dispatch newspaper fortune. The Crier has been around since New Warren City was barely a hole in the mountain. Krouri is smart, with an unstoppable desire to reveal the truth. She ventures far beyond where most reporters fear to tread.

Can’t believe I forgot to post this one as well. This is Sparks of Life, one of the characters in my novel. By day, he poses as a wealthy financier. Secretly, he’s an artistic arsonist with the desire to burn away the old so the city can flourish. The tiny blue kitten in his pocket is Kindling

This is Panda aka Trash Panda. Why the raccoon nom de plume? Because this sweet boy will find and carry home a piece of trash every time we go for a walk. Nugget boxes. Beer cans. Sandwich bags. Just now, he trotted home with a glass bottle of Franklin’s lime soda. Treasures exchanged for treats.

Gravity Falls is such a good show. Intriguing and mysterious with heartfelt moments and a hell of an ending. It’s only 2 seasons which ends up being the perfect length. Summer doesn’t last forever so make the most of your time wherever you are.

My phone has been lighting up all day from all these new followers

Medical debt has been paid in full! So tragic this is worth celebrating…

D&D session happened last night! Yay! Party spent an hour deciding how they would progress: fighting thru some slimes (the first of several encounters) or attempting to cross a 20ft pit. They ended up salvaging material from a ruined church above to make a bridge and cross the pit.

This is very important! Netflix is removing Monty Python and the Holy Grail as of 10/31. Hurry! You haven’t much time! There’s much peril to be had!

@aiko-asai-oni.bsky.social I’ve never had katsudon. Is it good? It looks delicious!

Sometimes a gummy is good to relax the brain and body after a stressful day. Other times it kicks the brain into creative gear and now I want to write another book

Been a while since I jumped on a bandwagon. To sweeten the pot, every game will come with a personal anecdote as to why it’s on my list.

Awful customer time: Customer needs a new internet line run. Approves the job but doesn’t want to pay for it. Claims to have had no internet for the past year. Demands refund for the year or no charge for line run. No record of any internet issues all year. Sorry. That’s not how this works

The curse of players no-showing for D&D continues…

Gonna use this space to shout out a talented artist who brought all these characters into life. @ptgho.bsky.social

Nom nom nom

Playing thru the Silent Hill 2 remake has been a different experience than when I played the original in my 20s. I’m picking up on a lot more of the environmental storytelling that went over my head back then, simply because I hadn’t experienced life yet.
