    Conversations. Sometimes it’s too much, sometimes too little, formal, informal, clumsy, artificial, with another word: difficult. Let’s practice, Shall we? #253 Someone is on the bus. The guy beside them fidgets the whole time with an irritating tinkling bangle while telling them, it seems, their entire life story, including very personal things. It’s time to pop in the earbuds. When it’s time to get off the bus, the talker has disappeared and the strange bangle is now on th

Of Pride and Power Chapter 7 is live

Chapter 7 Well, the explosive sex scene at the end of the chapter hopefully will  be enjoyable for some folks, who have written to me about the need to explore Eli's innate Dom qualities. 😛 Those books I referenced are actually not bad reference material, slightly dated, but not bad introduction. The story of Siproites is an actual incomplete Greek myth about a boy being turned into a girl. The later storytellers and interpreters during the Roman era considered it a punishment t

Of Pride and Power Chapter 6 is Live

Chapter 6 This chapter explains a lot in terms of magic within this world but doesn't explain the reason behind it. It also expands upon Eli's abilities even further, he is not merely skilled at language and memory, but he actually has hidden knowledge based on interaction as well. Like Wikipedia, if you do not search for a subject, then you can't easily access that data. However, humans are not supposed to operate like that  (Spoiler Alert or False Herring  ) As for introducing Puck,

Of Pride and Power Chapter 5 is live

Chapter 5 An important character got introduced in this chapter, Francis Walsingham., the shadow of Elizabeth I  He is historically one of the greatest spymasters of all time, creating an international spy network that outmatched all of England's opponents and protected its Queen. He was fanatically loyal to Elizabeth. Modern intelligence agencies, UK's MI5, Israel's Mossad, US' CIA, China's MIS, and Russia's FSB all use techniques that Walsingham employed in the 16th century in a concerted

The Hunt for the Missing Pokemon

Room Excavation: The Hunt for the Missing Pokemon So, this all began when the new downloadable content/extension pack for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet was about to release. I thought to myself "My Pokemon Home (the app that holds all the Pokemon I've collected for at least a decade) is not up to date and organized. I can bide my time organizing it." The "organizing/clean-up" that I thought would span only about 2 hours at the most ended up taking days. The more I dug into each pokemon
