Weekend, and a writing lull

Last week was immensely busy for me at Day Job, and then I topped it off by taking a 4-day weekend, 2 days of which involved company, and the other two of which involved recuperating.

Thus, my writing has been very slow for a week or two, and I'm just now getting my brain back into Writing Mode.

I'm still here, though.

How's everyone else?

Addergoole: The Web Page (Countdown to Addergoole)

As we get closer and closer to September (eep), I realize I need to get together a web page for this thing!

So, I know the original page had its flaws. What do you want to see in Addergoole: Year 9 for ease of following?

Be kind, please. Mean comments will be cried on.

Okay, Guys, what do you want today?

Want a character description?

Want to ask someone questions?

Want to know something about the school?

Want more Character Development Meme?

Ask, and you shall receive.

Don't ask, and nobody receives anything ;-)

Ask A Crew Anything: "Yep," + Yolanda

The Addergoole crew that calls itself "Yep" includes the following:

Arnbjorg - this tall, intimidating blonde cy'Doug daughter of Aelfgar was with Jamian for her first three years of Addergoole. She shows up here. She is in the 6th Cohort

Dyfri - this slender mer-creature is a beast in the water, but weak on land. He is in love with Evie, and probably always will be, but the best she will allow him is friendship.

Evie - this tall, slender elk-Change girl with golden eyes has never recovered from her time as Calvin's Kept. She is defensive and reticent, but learning to speak to people.

Dyfri and Evie show up here.

Reese - This hermaphroditic squirrel, Kept by Efrosin h' first year, has an attention span worthy of h'Change, but also has a vicious streak of cunning to match. Blonde, slender, and rather attractive, this 7th Cohort is loyal to its friends but trustworthy for no-one else.

Reese shows up here.

Eluned - this short, pale redheaded 9th Cohort, Evie's Kept for the year, can seem as fluttery as her Change. Some of that is likely due to her Keeper, however.

Yolanda - to fill out the 8th Cohort, I offer Dyfri's Kept from Year 8. Since she's a complete blank slate, in addition to asking her questions, feel free to suggest physical or emotional description, Changes, innate powers, or anything else.

And now you may ask Yep anything!

Entering Kitty Town, a story for the Rabbit Safari

For lilfluff's requested continuation of Down in Kitty Town, from then January 2012 Giraffe Call

Irena sank into the cushions of her seat, letting the slow hypnosis take over as a team of Agency cover-preppers worked on her. Her body was already beginning to change. By the time she woke up, her personalty would have been shifted as well. She cursed her supervisor sleepily. She always came back from these missions with a desire to scratch the linoleum and a month of panicked nightmares.

~

Rrrina woke up in a crate. How had she... oh. Her Master. Her stupid, mean, heavy-handed Master had gotten bored with her. "I'm sick of Siamese." Like she was a slipcover or something. She'd yowled and screamed, so he'd sedated her. Her butt and back hurt; he'd beaten her, too. She wouldn't be sorry to see the back of him, if only it didn't mean she was in a crate again.

Delfugiaran Bunnies, a story for the Bunny Safari

For clare_dragonfly's prompt


There were planets where you set down, built the first houses, and spent your four years of prep playing house like you were in the burbs back on Earth.

There were planets where you barely got the house up before the storms the weather satellites hadn't seen nor predicted blew over you, and you spent four years just trying to survive and get enough built so the colonists coming after you wouldn't die.

There were places where Murphy's Law seemed to be in full effect, you lost half the team, but somehow managed to present a colony that looked tidy enough, so tidy the company was left asking "so what was the problem again?"

And then there was Fuge.
