I promised we'd get back to this one, and so roughly 3600 words just went up on a fresh chapter. It's a little more serious than the previous portions, but it almost had to be: this is where Things Get Explained (Or At Least, Certain Things Do) and so portions of the talk had to be semi-solemn. But the next section will swing back to comedy, because our Hero has arrived -- and he may need a little time to adjust.
As also promised, this particular update comes with no post charge. The final new chapter of the month -- on Triptych, which will hopefully appear before local midnight on the 31st -- will.
And now for the personally annoying part: every time I update an ongoing story, I have to add the new https://ko-fi.com/H2H46PPO link to the long description. I'll have to do all the completed ones in bulk eventually, but -- for now, that's the final update of the night.
(I'm still debating on whether to add Patreon and Ko-Fi links to the Continuum's main TVTropes page -- a question which arose when I saw that other creators had their own links up. It seems like a natural addition, but... I'm hesitant.)
More writing over the weekend, and then we turn to January and all of those Blog Dictations.
Stay tuned. (Can you even say 'stay tuned' in an on-demand world?)
