“…right behind Carl Anderson’s house, there, next to that eyesore of a pool that he put in last year.” Tom Esker was a very tidy white man, maybe in his mid-forties, wearing a polo shirt and chinos, pleats perfectly pressed, while he stood in his living room and kvetched about werewolves....

I have been considering my "Episodes" setting/story for... reasons... and today I realized I'd missed an episode.

The Agent Goes Rogue.

The Agency Disavows the Agent.

First Line of Yesterday:
“No way.” Holly stared at the screen.

Last Line of Yesterday:
"Tighty whities, I’m so disappointed.”

“Oh, don’t act like you’re surprised. Besides, they fit better.”

I wrote: 2027 words of Episodes yesterday, bringing my total (unsurprisingly) to 2027.
My target for yesterday was 1818; I am aiming for 40,000 over the 22 weekdays of the month.

So far so good!

40,000 words/22 days --> 1800+ words/daily or a 5000-word chapter every 2-1/2 days.

The kid Genius/Hacker/cleric
Holly (needs a last name)

No, sorry, it's not like that. But if you can show me proof to the contrary, I'll consider it.

Holly is a voracious consumer of knowledge in all its forms, and has been her entire short life.

Nineteen as the story starts, she was sat on her parents' laps in front of computers at the tender age of four, and has been at a keyboard ever since.

She denies claims that she's a prodigy, despite the fact that she is working towards her doctorate in robotics at the moment.

She found fandom and cosplay very early, coming by it honestly - her parents having taken her to Darkovercon when she was 2 months old. She enjoys anime as well as many of the modern sci-fi/fantasy TV shows, writes fanfic in her spare time, and has a vibrant social life online.

She identifies as bisexual but has yet to find someone who she values enough, whose sexuality lines up properly with hers, to engage in anything further than necking with IRL.

She maintains several discrete identities online and three IRL, not counting her forays into MMORPGs.

This is to [personal profile] ysabetwordsmith's prompt to this January card for [community profile] origfic_bingo.

It fills the "love at first sight" slot, and is in no established verse - although Holly MIGHT end up being in my Episodes 'verse

They first ran into each other at a tiny regional sci-fi con. Holly was doing her favorite Bleach cosplay; Grace was wearing an extravagant medium-length dress and a pair of knee-high boots. She had an overcoat atop, the yellow frogs standing out in stark contrast to the black of the rest of her outfit.

They observed each other for a moment between the roleplaying-book booth and the tinted-contacts table. Grace spoke first, a little frown creasing her white-powdered forehead.
