Where The FUCK Did The Time Go Today??

crossover_chickI mean, seriously, I got up EARLIER today! I had breakfast earlier! I had lunch -- well, LUNCH was later than normal, but still! I feel like I intended to get a lot more done today, and then suddenly it's past time for me to go to bed! @.@
Er, anyway -- here's what I DID manage to get done:
1. Continue the FO4 Playthrough Progression and edits on Chapter 4 of “Londerland Bloodlines: Santa Monica’s Vale Of Tears”: Check – did the Playthrough Progression write-up shortly after finishing up my play session (below) – Victor and Preston are definitely starting to bond here, and they’re now working on how to help out the robot farm Graygarden clean up their water supply. . .which involves cleaning out a bunch of super mutants from the plant their water comes from. Eeep. At least Victor in the fanfic write-up dies less than in my actual game. . .
As for “Londerland Bloodlines,” got those edits done after supper – I have made it to page 31 of 46, and Alice has joined up with Mercurio to investigate Carson’s disappearance! They’ve searched his apartment, found where McGee was hiding, and called one Stanley Gimble, who is giving them both a rather “off” vibe. I left it off with them preparing to go to the studio itself – hopefully I can get through to the boss fight tomorrow!
2. Keep up with YouTube Subs, clear out the Watch Later, and watch Jon's F:NV "Utter Chaos" video of the week: 5/6’s check – I wasn’t able to watch both videos in the Watch Later at the time because of the fact that time just vanished today. Prioritized the longer one! But I got most of them watched, which is good –
A) Started this afternoon with the latest AT4W from Linkara – “Chew: Poyo Character Focus!” This is a look at a few different comics from the indie series Chew, which is a very strange comic about how poultry is illegal now after a terrible bird flu killed lots of people, the main character (Tony Chu) is a cop and has the ability to tell exactly where anything he eats came from and what they were like (this includes human, as seen when he furiously gnaws on a serial killer to get the names of every one of his victims), his partner ends up a cyborg after the first issue, the FDA is now the greatest authority in the land – and there is a rooster from a cock-fighting ring named Poyo who is THE MOST BAD-ASS CREATURE TO EVER EXIST. This bird can take down anyone, including ripping the still-beating heart from a North Korean general who shot him – and that’s BEFORE he gets cybernetic upgrades for his one-shot. Hell, we see a few shots of Poyo in Hell as he’s being operated on to save his chickeny life – and he TAKES DOWN EVERY DEMON, DOOM-MARINE STYLE. Linkara even quotes the opening of the 2016 game, and it is VERY appropriate. :D The comic itself is edgy, ugly, and kinda gross (what with the whole “there is occasionally cannibalism” thing), but Linkara says its a fairly compelling read, and of course Poyo is amazing. Too bad he gave Linkara’s own robot buddy Pollo a crisis when he finally realized that he is, indeed, a literal Robot Chicken. XD It’s okay, Pollo – that’s just all part and parcel of why we love you!
B) Then it was over to the Subs for James Turner with another take at the Sims 4 “Makin’ Money” scenario – people in the comments suggested flower arranging as a quick ticket to the necessary million, so James started up a new save with a new Semaj (this time with the traits of “Loves Outdoors,” “Loner,” “Perfectionist,” and “Muser” from the “Painter Extraordinaire” aspiration) in Evergreen Harbor and set to work! First thing first was to use the free flooring tool to set up the necessary four tiles for a micro home on his lot (which gives so many benefits I won’t list them all here, but important to know is that skills are earned at double speed), then go fishing to earn the money to get a flower-arranging bench. James was scanning the neighborhood for potential collectibles to dig up and sell as well –
When he spotted none other than Clement Frost, aka Father Winter, chilling by the NAP sign. Clement Frost, who, if you marry him, brings $500,000 to the family.
Naturally Semaj was all over that. And without Carl’s Gameplay Overhaul to make things harder, Semaj was able to woo and marry Clement in a matter of hours – even using James’s favorite photography trick to speed up the process! XD James promptly spent a bunch of money making a nice, eco-friendly micro home with a “car port” (a place where they could grow flowers if necessary – it wasn’t), a couple of flower benches under an extended roof, and a selling table, then set to work having both Clement and Semaj just make flower arrangements 24/7 to skill up. This itself provided some decent income (as the better they got, the higher most arrangements sold for) – but the REAL money started coming in when they were finally both level 10 and James had them start selling the most expensive arrangements at the selling table – at 300% mark-up. People were paying over 20,000 simoleons for these arrangements. Sure, James spent a bunch of money jazzing up the micro-home with loads of art to get aspiration points to buy a money tree, but it was very quickly earned back, and within four days – a quarter of the time he spent doing his “copypasto money fruit” run – they had their million. And that’s BEFORE they even played the lottery! Wild times. XD James has indicated he’s interested in seeing if this can be done yet quicker, or if there’s more ridiculous ways to make the million, so I’m hopeful we’re gonna get a “Makin’ Money” miniseries out of this. XD
C) Then, after supper and editing, it was time for Call Me Kevin and more fun with Minecraft mods – in this one, every time he jumped, he started jumping higher and higher. Simple mod – with EXTREMELY deadly consequences. The fall damage can kill you after only 19 jumps, as Kevin showed in the opening. XD At first, he took it very carefully around the world, trying to tunnel this way through ledges and stealing stairs and ladders whenever possible – but the jumps just kept piling up, because he’d hit the spacebar without even thinking. Also using ladders apparently counts as jumping. So he just tried to use it to his advantage – dropping into deep mines before leaping his way out – but that soon became unfeasible, just because he kept landing on hard grass and dying. And then dying repeatedly every time he tried to collect his stuff, because he wouldn’t find it all and then he’d jump again and – yeah. XD He EVENTUALLY managed to get his hands on it all again (with the help of some hastily-made stairs) and get it to his little cobble house, but by that time he was flying every time he so much as looked at the spacebar. So he did the only logical thing – tunneled straight down into a monster cave, filled the tunnel with water, built a NEW house at the bottom of the tunnel, and just – bounced around, content in the knowledge that his character would hit a ceiling and thus wouldn’t end up in space. XD By the time he ventured back up to get some wood, he was practically going into ORBIT every time he jumped – the only reason he survived was because he had the good fortune to land in a pond. So now that version of Jim is just a mole person. XD He openly called this one his toughest challenge to date, and – yeah, I think I can see why! XD
D) And then it was over to GrayStillPlays and more Happy Wheels! Among the highlights of this episode were “Bottle Flip Chaos,” where besides the Mighty Dorito and the stick of butter, Gray had to “ride the magical mystic Yeet Dragon” to win – LITERALLY, you flipped a bottle onto its head and it slid you down to an actual jet-powered Yeet Dragon (Gray was thrilled); two INCREDIBLY hard harpoon dodges (the trick with both being harpoons that shot UPWARD – the first also had a trio set up like spotlights to snag Gray shortly before the win); a glass break that also included a nice dinner with Timmy/Tom Hardy if you would prefer that (complete with drinks and smashed watermelon); a trip home from a camping trip where you had to VERY CAREFULLY dodge all the traps (including a piranha lake, a wrecking ball, and Florida Man); a meteor run that put you RIGHT in front of the meteor (Gray got minced the first time, but managed the “fly over most of the board” trick the second and made it); and a trip on a deadly school bus (which got stuck at an awkward angle over the win, forcing Gray to wiggle around inside to make sure it actually touched the winning area). As usual, delightful chaos, and I hope Yeet Dragon gets to join Gray’s stable of pets. XD
E) And, finally, of course, we had Jon and F:NV in “Utter Chaos!” And theme of this episode? Fun in the sewers! If by “fun” you mean “fighting loads of scary monsters and blowing yourself up a lot.” Because yes, explosions expert Random Jon did spend a lot of this episode blowing himself up (or at least crippling limbs) while he tried to blow up other creatures. Not that this strategy didn’t sometimes WORK, just – it was a constant struggle not to kill himself while he was shooting grenades at all and sundry. He did accomplish a few things though – such as killing Tabitha, whom – I don’t know who that is, but I’m pretty sure she’s not usually a Deathclaw whom you have to kill by shooting the far corner of the room with the gun Mercy in just the right spot so the splash damage kills her and not you. Seems to have something to do with the local super mutants? *shrug* I don’t know the quests, and I know them even less with this mod. But Jon killed her and I guess completed a quest for the super-mutant-turned-robo-scorpion Daniel. And then had to kill an invisible Nightkin Master while leaving because of course he did. XD He also found another Hoover Dam power plant room, fixed a bug where everything would turn to looking like you were underwater or in a cave if you waited (known bug in his mod set-up, there’s a patch for it luckily), found another Great Khan in their supply cave and blew him up, killed more monsters in more sewers, wandered briefly into Dead Money and its toxic clouds in search of doors, and – most significantly, at least in my opinion – got himself a stealth suit, with upgrades!
A very chatty, very ANNOYING stealth suit that auto-uses his stimpacks, because it has an AI that doesn’t like to shut up. Damn. I mean, he got it randomly off a Powder Ganger who foolishly pulled a gun on him, and he was able to upgrade it over in Old World Blues by cheesing all the infiltration tests via good lockpicking skills and killing some mantises one of the doctors sent against him, so that’s all nice and dandy, but – is it really worth the suit making random commentary and forcing stimpacks into you? Hmmm. I guess we’ll find out. Jon just bought a whole bunch of explosives, and it’s now time to take on the Omertas. :p We’ll see how that goes next week!
3. Play Fallout 4 and head back to Starlight before starting to move out toward Diamond City: Check, though I never actually made it back to Starlight Drive-In – what happened was, I got into the game, and Preston immediately triggered his first affinity talk, discussing his history with the Minutemen and how upset he was when the group broke down due to the infighting. Victor sympathized and said they were the good guys, which made Preston happy. :) From there, I checked my map to see about the best route back to Starlight –
And discovered that Graygarden actually wasn’t that far from ArcJet Systems. And that, in turn, wasn’t too far from Diamond City! So it made more sense to go ahead and hit Graygarden and start on their recruitment quest before heading down to the plot. :) So that’s what I did – Victor retraced his steps down the road to loot some corpses and before rain and tiredness had me set up camp nearby the raider camp that got killed on our way through with Danse. Next morning, after a VERY annoying fight with my port-o-potty (that damn thing has to be set perfectly on a flat surface, which I thought I HAD, but nope – and you can’t pick it UP if it’s not sitting up just right either, meaning I had to kick it for a while before it finally got into a usable state), Victor and Preston raided some old buses and checked out some Pulowski shelters before heading up the slope to Graygarden. Victor met up with Supervisor White, and to my delight there was an option to remember her creator, Edward Gray – apparently he was a senior engineer at RobCo, brilliant but eccentric. After explaining about the cryogenic freezing thing, Victor told her they were with the Minutemen, and she gave them their task – check out the Weston Water Plant and see why their water was so miserable. Victor and Preston headed out, and encountered some dead robots and some very ALIVE synths who had apparently murdered a camp of scavengers nearby. Victor did some cooking, I squeed over the brief appearance of Gene the dog salesman with his doggie, then Victor and Preston carried on, passing a dead super mutant before coming across the plant – and all the living ones. First attack did not go well, because among the super mutants is an asshole with a rocket launcher and a suicider, the latter of which blew Victor up. The SECOND attack went better – Victor was able to snipe off a couple of enemies, including the suicider by getting to high ground above him – but trying to move in closer just got him murdered by the other mutants. THIRD attempt had him circle the building – and get blown up by rocket launcher guy. *huffs* I shall have to rethink my strategies next Sunday when I continue my assault! At least I saved right after killing the suicider. . .
4. Work on tumblr drafts: Check! Did Smiler’s pictures last night, as I said I would, then put myself to it and got my entire Smiler Chill Save update, PLUS my gift fic for Wednesday, into Victor Luvs Alice’s drafts before lunch! :) And then I finished up the text for the latest ship meme afterward. So I’m looking pretty good for this week, at least on my main! :) And over on Valice Multiverse, we had two ask replies, so that was pretty easy, whew.
5. Get in a workout: No check – thanks to a late lunch and wanting to make sure I got all the longest videos out of the way tonight, I ended up skipping it in favor of watching James Turner (above). Just gotta get back on the bike tomorrow, I suppose!
Additionally:
-->Made a backup of my computer this morning before installing a load of drivers and testing my hardware through SupportAssist. Computer should be good to go for a little while now! :)
. . .okay, to be fair, updating my computer this morning probably sucked up more time than anticipated. As did getting all those drafts done. I mean, that's a GOOD thing, it's nice to be prepared ahead of the curve, but -- yeah. Really feel like this day got away from me. Meh. Well, nothing for it but to prepare for another Monday in the trenches -- night all!
Er, anyway -- here's what I DID manage to get done:
