I was super excited as we reached the pokemon school. “There he is!” I called out to Papa who was walking normally, and not speeding up despite us almost being there!
It was such an adult thing!
“I’m coming, calm down Vicky.” Papa called out and I scoffed, we were almost the...

That was literally the tree we crossed like ten minutes ago.

2025-06-26 04:33:45 +0000 UTC View Post“Aaaand swim swim swim!” I called out. I was resting on an inner tube as my hands were held out, and I was urging Gible to swim as hard as she could.
I grinned as I kept my hands out, giving her little hands something to push against as she began beating her feet in the ocean.

It was bad.
Blegh.
I was rolled over by a giggling Milllotic and I saw Dratini beside me in the dirt. The echoing sound of his Devastating Drake sounding on the waves.
“Pfft.” I spit sand and then muttered weakly. “Th...
2025-06-24 04:13:40 +0000 UTC View Post“New Egg!” I cheered to Mama and Papa as I caught up to them. They’d been out getting lunch or something, but when they came back to our little spot on the beach, I’d stood up and showed off the incubator I’d been cradling.
“Oh my!” Mama cooed as she hurried over and checked i...

“Juuun.” I whined from the couch. I sat up and glared at him.
“What?”
“Don’t what me. I can hear that smirk on every word. I’m not giving up my Merc job.”
“Sure.” He said very much not agreeing with me, as he ...
I’d ended up kneeling down and writing in the dirt with a sort of clawed finger to talk to the boys.
“So you can’t see well either!?” Sammy yelled and I shook my head. “That sounds bad!”
I just nodded.
Irritating.
Thankfully communication removed mo...
2025-06-13 00:36:43 +0000 UTC View PostI ended up writing down everything I learned while waiting for my spell to end naturally. The length of time for my transformation was kind of important, you know?
But the longer that went on the more I noticed it was sticking around for a long time.

2025-06-10 23:58:26 +0000 UTC View PostBitey was back in his enclosure, and I was pacing.
Mana. Wavelength. Magic circles.
The concepts spun around in my head.
Mana was energy, but… Just on its own, it didn’t actually do much for me. I couldn’t really control it well because of my weak Wavelength. 2025-06-10 02:42:56 +0000 UTC View Post
The next day or so was mostly getting my baby Croc squared away, keeping him from escaping and learning how to feed him without nearly getting bitten.
As promised I didn’t give him any mana. Thankfully Uncle James finally came through.
“What do you think?” He asked, the wood...
With James' help the next day I had a wood block with the magical circle taken from the Giant Mouth Cat, etched into it.
Frankly it was a little annoying that James had made the whole thing look almost simple and it was even cleaner than the one I had written in my notebook.
With th...

The answer to how, came easily after that. With all the Harpoons much stronger now, there were less of them being broken. So we simply started having more and more excess Harpoons stored up. The teenagers had been granted access to some o...
2025-06-06 04:43:22 +0000 UTC View PostI raced out of the compound eager to find my group. The three boys thankfully weren’t hard to find. They were settled in the bend of the east section of the stream that passed by the compound just under where our little camp was located playing in the shallows.

“Hey Hiromi.”

I got home and flopped on the couch. That netdive had taken a lot out of me, and I honestly felt ready for a nap, but first.
I looked at my stat screen.
During the dive I’d destroyed so many Daemons I’d actually hit a level up.
Level up achieved!

2025-05-05 17:03:13 +0000 UTC View PostBack home I flopped on the couch to get some programming done. First step was to go over the obvious.
Programming 15 had come with a perk choice.
Considering the power of some of the programming perks I’d already taken I was going to need to go through the list.
