Starting an evil Durge BG3 run for the achievements, had to make it silly to make it palatable to me. Meet Perfectly Ordinary Human John Bhaaldursgate and his dream guardian, The Cooler John Bhaaldursgate.

My last few D&D characters, which now that they're all in one place, I realize they're all varying degrees of silly. Maybe it's time for a serious character again?
A purple play-doh in a yellow container with a cute smiley face An anthropomorphic turtle with goggles on her forehead and bandages wrapped on the first two fingers of her right hand. A pale green ooze/blob with a cowboy hat A pale elf with white hair and purple eyes drawn in a comical "gremlin" style. She has a rapier, shield, and breastplate. There is purple fire behind her.

My 18-month-old keeps pulling @yilinwriter.bsky.social's book off the bookshelf. She's got plenty of her own books, but nope her favorite lately is this one, followed by her dad's English-Latin dictionary. I might have a future translator on my hands.

My (belated) Inkfort Publishing Derby book is finally out now on Amazon! This was a tough one to write cause it's outside of my usual wheelhouse, so I'm pretty proud of myself for seeing it through!

You can check it out here: mybook.to/bodyoftheseus

The travails of having a sphinx for a roommate.
Sphinx: Beware, human, the treacherous road encased in ice, as was foretold. Tread cautiously or meet thy end for winter's wrath this night descends. Human: Would it kill you to just say "hey be careful, the weather forecast said there's ice rain tonight"? Sphinx: Mock not the ancient art of rhyme or a different roommate ye must find.

I made more of these.
He threw the match into the kerosene, watched as the house became a conflagration of heat and light. What magnificence. What beauty. One king commissioned a statue of himself that towered above his city. Another spent his gold on aqueducts, on medicine, on housing for the sick and poor. “No monument to preserve your legacy?” asked the first king. “No,” replied the second. “I want a legacy that lasts.” I know monsters who kill for sustenance, tormented by a hunger they cannot sate. I know monsters who kill for fear, driven by a terror that supersedes all reason. Me? I kill for the thrill of it. He swung his axe. Metal met bark. Sap oozed from the wound while the leaves cascaded down like tears.

This had better be made with 100% real organic free range unicorns.

Since I've been writing more of these vss365 prompts, I've been playing around with putting these in image form. Dunno that I'll continue doing these for every one, but they're fun.
Blood bloomed across her white chemise like the first flowers of spring pushing through the snow. She died as she lived — beautiful. #vss365 #bloom #microfiction Someday, conqueror, you will return in the guise of a savior. You will claim to fight for peace as you end the unrest that started in your wake. Someday, you will return, and I will greet you with poison and blades. #vss365 #greet #microfiction “My liege,” said the advisor, “the people won’t like this. They won’t support another war of conquest.” “So put a different spin on it,” replied the king. “Call it a war of liberation.” #vss365 #spin #microfiction “Not even magic,” said the necromancer to his student, “can create something from nothing. There is always a price, but it is not always you who pays it.” He waved his hands. Her carnations withered; his poppies bloomed. #vss365 #wither #microfiction

Some graffiti I found on a footbridge.
Bridge railing with graffiti written in Sharpie that says "Remember your worst day is only 24 hours long" Bridge railing with black graffiti that says "Don't kill yourself because you'll die" Bridge railing with turquoise graffiti that says "bravo les lesbiennes" and a small heart
