God Damn It RIpta

I want to know WHY they keep sending drivers out on the 65X line THAT DON'T KNOW THE ROUTE THEY'RE GOING. The guy who drove the one home today tried to take us BACK TO EAST GREENWICH -- for those not in the know, that's the OPPOSITE DIRECTION from my house. And then he had to be basically walked through each stop by us passengers. . .so sick of the bus company's bullshit, seriously. I swear to God service has gone DOWN since they raised the price of passes. . .

Well, I made it home by 5:30 anyway, and I got my latest chapter up, so that's something. Here, have a virtual tour of Houndsditch followed by adorable children with angsty backstories:

-->On FF.net

-->On AO3

-->On my website

Hopefully you'll enjoy it -- it took some time to get together, but the finished product is pretty good in my opinion.

Not much else to say -- Pats had a shut-out win tonight, which is good. I've got everything ready for the DMV visit tomorrow (have to renew my ID -- and I can't do it at the local DMV because it's not open on Fridays for some asinine reason; fortunately there's one we can stop at on the way to Cape Cod instead) and the weather should cooperate for lunch and mini-golf on the Cape. Just gotta do Forgotten's queue, and then hit the sheets so I have some time to relax in the morning instead of rushing around like crazy. So yeah -- night all! Should have something more interesting for you tomorrow!

Is it intentional, an oversight, or a goof that there is a child in the painting with the number 13?

Other than that, I like the interaction with the kids.

I just had a thought. D'you think that some of the kids' "unfinished business" would be to see Bumby dead and would ascend at the end of the story when he's dragged Below?

Intentional -- the painting in canon has a child with that number. I hadn't noticed it during earlier playthroughs, which is why I chose it for Victor. I'm not sure if I should change it or not -- having 13 being Victor's "special" number is nice, but it also makes it easier for Lizzie and Bonejangles not to believe anything's up when Abigail tells them Bumby's busy with someone with that number. . .hmmm.

I'm glad -- I like the kids in general. They're cute and I feel bad I gave them such ignominious ends. :(

It's certainly possible, though I'm not sure I'd actually write it out. Feels like it might distract too much from Lizzie closing out that chapter of her life, and that's kinda the point of the story. . . We'll see when I get there.
