In the midst of getting frustrated at Dayne St. Clair's antics and my team's apparent inability to not bounce PK's off the frame, I finished writing a Locked Tomb oneshot yesterday. It's now up on ao3 if anyone happens to feel like taking a look. archiveofourown.org/works/73935216

Wonderwall is a good song, it made for a great reoccurring gag at Desert Bus last year, but by Tzeentch I do NOT want to hear the Minnesota fans singing it 2 hours from now.

Today is a day of Soccer & hobbies for me. A couple UK matches this morning and then 3 MLS playoff match-ups later. Looking forward to getting some crochet and writing done while the action happens on the various fields.

Spent my evening playing a World of Darkness mod for Crusader Kings, wherein I played an Angel of Death-turned Lust demon and conquered half of Russia while under the domain of Baba Yaga.
Fun times. Might try playing as one of the fae rulers next.

Two weeks later and the weird green peanut now has arms, a tail, and most of a cloak! This year's craft-along is taking a bit more time than previous entries, but it's on track. #DesertBus2025

Coming up on the end of The Shadow Over Cyberspace (It's amazing), and I find myself wishing we could see what would happen if @fictionfactorygames.com were given the chance to play around in the World of Darkness. Particularly with @jacobburgess.bsky.social lending his myriad talents to the effort.

It's time for a craftalong update! I may be too close to be a proper judge, but I feel like at this point it's fairly obvious what I'm making.

Submissions open for the Desert Bus Craft-Along!
Before I throw my application out into the ether in hopes of garnering PrizeMistress Erika's approval, here's the little progress I've made thus far, mostly working during DnD while waiting for my next turn in combat encounters.

Fired up MH Wilds last night. Spent too long on character creation and only did that Intro fight. I decided to try greatsword, and enjoyed it enough that it's now my third weapon.
