The dehumidifier is blowing so the radio is off. It's a minimalist kind of music and tones down my tinnitus.

Survived the shiny metropolis, as did Busterson. No temperature this time just the declaration that he fights too much and is fat. These things I already knew. Yet again attempting to put him on a diet ... yet again Mr B will declare that only the first three letters of that word count (in his opinion) so I should really rethink my decision.

The 'fashions' in the charity shops of the shiny metropolis always make me curious as to the people who handed the items in. Biggest Dog is in the first picture ... if you look closely. Her reflection startled her and she was more than prepared to square up to herself.

In the second picture you can see the Emperor's new clothes. His consort is hiding at the back. I'm thinking of the naturists that I am assured reside on the Emerald Isle. Brave, brave people!

Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday ... a hint of sunshine, plenty of coffee, and the happy knowledge of hibernation as today's watchword ...

as a former escape room host i highly recommend doing an escape room as a first date. its a great way to learn how ppl react under pressure and how well they collaborate with you right off the bat. also more than once ive seen people enter an escape room as a couple and exit broken up LOL its a fantastic litmus test

Do not write fanfiction. One second you're normal and the next you're downloading a calendar from 2004 and tearing your hair out over what specific date every event in your fic happens

to me the appeal of pathetic vampires is similar to the appeal of stupid cats. you have the teeth and claws to rip through flesh to your heart's content, but here you are. paw stuck to a quilt. staring woefully with eyes the size of saucers to get someone to help. same goes for a vampire failing miserably to use a touchscreen because his fingers are too cold.

one thing that took me embarrassingly long to learn is "sometimes when people say things, they will not be true."

I used to tell people about this revelation and they'd be like yeah.....duh.....but like, why wouldn't my base assumption be that you're communicating to me in a straightforward manner. anyway, I get scammed a lot.

Darkest Night, Burns Bright: Prologue

AO3 here

The moon, waxing silently in its lonesome among the thousands of stars above, shone upon the pack as they slowly approached the edge of their territory. Cool spring air wafted through their fur, weaving in between the strands in an attempt to make them shiver. They did not hesitate to continue, following their Leader dutifully.

Wet grass, sprinkled with droplets of water, tickled his fur as the wolf followed slightly behind, ear flicking in response to the far away sound of birdsong.

His tail flicked as his nose picked up the concentration of scent up ahead. The scent of cats.

The line stopped, and he moved to find a place to see, eyes wide and alert as he took in the visitors. The trespassers.

There were only a few, but they stood tall, confident, and held their spears tightly as if expecting attack. That was smart, in comparison to the stupidity of going on pack territory, of course.

These cats were not normal cats, able to grab and weave much like man. These were from the Mountain Pass; the Clans he had heard about from his dam’s tales. They held honor quite highly if he was correct in his remembrance. Perhaps that was why there had been no move to swarm from the pack leader.

He never understood cats, the lazy, ferocious things. Then again, these cats were an exception to most rules he knew.

Pack Leader stepped forward silently, looking upon the Clan cats with deceptively flat fur as he regarded them. The things were small, barely reaching up to his flank from what the other wolf could see.

“You are bold to come here, Clan cats.” Their leader grumbled, his tail flicking in acknowledgment as his mate gave him a look. “I allow you to speak, so long as it is to the benefit of the pack. If not, turn tail and run.”

One of the cats, one with a bent tail and brown stripes, stood straight up and gestured as they spoke in cat tongue. Of course, most of the wolves did not understand, but they were surprised as another cat began to speak in Howl slightly after. “We extend an offer, one of mutual benefit to both Clan and pack.”

The pack looked at each other in surprise and suspicion, turning back to watch as the wolf leader spoke once more. “What offer do you speak of?”

“Our Star requests a favor, and in return we will craft and hunt for you for a time.”

The wolf snorted, swallowing as the attention was diverted to him before standing his ground. “We do not need charity, especially from you.”

“Silence, Holly.” Prowl growled, and Holly shut himself up, looking to the ground with a bowed head of apology. The leader looked back to the cats, humming. “We are curious as to your offer, Clan cat. What is it you wish for in the context of this… favor?”

The lesser cat translated the wolf’s words, before the leader cat spoke again, the lesser cat translating again.

“You are on good terms with others, yes? Eagles, Crows, Cats and Dogs of all kinds? We simply wish for negotiation help with a job, and we will repay you handsomely.”

The wolves muttered amongst themselves, and Holly looked to his leader, who was clearly contemplating the deal. He licked his chops, looking at the cat leader with a bob of the head. “Very well. We may discuss further at a later time, and we will spread word of your offer to our compatriots.”

As the cats translated, they watched as the leader of them puffed out his fur in satisfaction, rumbling his own halting purr while he nodded in turn. His voice was honey sweet and gleeful, contrasted by the hesitation in the voice of his translator.

“We will see you at the half moon.”

Blueblizzard inhaled silently as she looked up, watching the stars shine in pulses.

She thought of the small kittypet they had been seeing on their border, his ginger coat puffing with kitten fluff and his eyes wide with curiosity. The idea Loongloom had given about the kittypet had made her concerned, wondering why the Stars cared about something so small. Her ear flicked as the bushes behind her rustled.

With a blink, she turned to watch as her seer and deputy stepped up to meet her. “Loongloom, are you sure this is wise? I do not doubt you, but…”

“He’s a small one, that’s for sure.” Maplestep huffed, sitting next to his leader as his sister stared at the stars silently. “He has a spark in his eyes though, something real strong there. It’s not like he’ll take up much space either.”

Thunderclan’s leader hummed, her tail flicking to land on her seer’s, urging her to give her opinion.

“He will shine bright upon the Clans, like a star itself, Blueblizzard. The sky shines with want and desperation; this kittypet will decide the fate of us, with or without our guidance.” Loongloom did not look away from the sky as she spoke, and the leader swallowed thickly.

The silence stretched on, before Blueblizzard acquiesced. “We will wait until he enters the pass proper… No need to get close to the twolegs.”

Humming happily in response, the seer got up, silently leaving towards the Doctors den.

Maplestep stayed with his leader, and she exhaled as the moon shone among the stars above.

“May Starclan guide our choices, hm?”

“May Starclan guide our choices. How long have you been awake?”

Blueblizzard huffed a tired laugh, and that was all the answer her deputy needed. He flicked his tail to pat her back with it, standing and gently shoving her in the direction of her den. “Go to sleep, I’ll keep an eye on things.”

“Mm… Alright.”

Moving to her nest, the leader curled up in her nest and sighed, letting her eyes fall closed. Would this really be the right choice? Still, Loongloom had never led them astray before, but…

Best to think after a rest.
