Jules didn't like the plan at all.
The plot cycle may have said it was the beginning of Rebirth, but there were other things to take into account—the vibe, for one.
The problem with players is that so few of them, even back in the days of rescues, ever truly experienced a doomed sto...
2025-09-09 01:14:54 +0000 UTC View PostI found myself hyper aware of the compulsions that had overcome me in my time within the Eternal Savers Club.
I stared at my cart with items literally stacked up over the rim, and while I didn't feel like I was under the effects of mind control, and if my infection indicator was going off, ...
2025-09-05 04:54:46 +0000 UTC View PostAs the sun rose on our second day in the storyline, I could feel an energy in the air that didn't match the beginning of rebirth. It felt like the end. It felt like the finale was about to draw to a close.
It was like when you had a three-day weekend, and you got to take Monday off, but the...
2025-09-04 02:16:45 +0000 UTC View PostAs we fled into the parking lot from our exclusive party within the hedge maze, we sporadically went On-Screen. That meant we couldn't just wait around; we had to actually stay in character, which meant fleeing.
The problem was that we had walked here, and while that was okay for us ...
2025-08-23 04:36:20 +0000 UTC View PostI will be taking a week off from posting after today's chapter.
I need to get caught up on some things and get the storyline straightened out.
I appreciate your understanding. I hope when you see where this is going, you will understand.
2025-08-23 00:16:21 +0000 UTC View PostWith the cloaked cultists surrounding all exits from the center of the hedge maze, all I could do was hide behind the ice sculpture of the angel with Kimberly and Antoine.
They were called Night Stockers on the red wallpaper, and as funny as that joke of a name was, they didn’t come acros...

2025-08-16 03:41:57 +0000 UTC View Post“But I don’t understand, if the title of the movie is Homibridal, won’t the audience know who the killer is?” The man asked, blank-faced, standing next to a pair of women who also didn’t seem to get the premise. He was a big movie producer asking me about my latest project.

We picked five players to go on the rescue in Eternal Savers Club.
The more players you had, the more characters you had to share screen time with, and because Bobby's rescue trope was about completing subplots from the failed storyline, I worried that we would be hurting for scree...

We stood in front of the flea market, which was the same place we had bought the painting that acted as an Omen for Stray Dawn. It was one of several destinations on our shopping trip.

Bobby Gill held the ticket in his hands all the way up the stairs. Backstage Access. A proper scouting trope that belonged to Lila, but she would let him borrow it at night so he could walk the dogs.

Instead, I got sunshine. It was nighttime at the end of the story, but that didn’t mean anything to Carousel. We got daylight, if only to allow us to watch as Carousel drained...
