The Period Distraction Is Setting In
May. 25th, 2023 11:53 pmEven if the period isn't just yet. . .I suspect I'm going to be in a similar situation in the last weekend of May as I was during the last weekend of April/first day of May. Which is not ideal, but maybe I can use it to catch up on the OXBox RE4 REmake playthrough if nothing else. . . Anyway, here's how my day went --
Work – Another mostly-quiet day at work spent mostly cleaning up duplicates, though there was some annoying stuff near the end – a missing pledge update (which we were able to do in the end, at least); another absolutely useless call with the credit card people (ugh); a whole bunch of people with the same last name that I cannot figure out the family relationships of (so I’m not sure how to clean up duplicates within them); and – upon getting out – having to work my way through a whole bunch of people coming into the parking lots for a graduation that was happening nearby (this on TOP of the usual shit traffic trying to get up onto the highway). Given I’m rather hormonal lately, none of this helped my mood.
As for beanbags, it was back to slog times, with only Dad throwing really well – though Mom still managed to beat him in the first game. *sigh* Final scores were me 2-2-3; Dad 3-W-W; Mom W-3-2. *shrug* We’ll see if I do any better tomorrow – and if my parents actually remake the game, since they keep saying they’re gonna buy new boards and then not doing it. *sigh*
To-Do List –
1. Get in a workout: Check – another night on the bike, another night with the Oxventure One-Shot Wonder “Dragonlance: Shadow Of The Dragon Queen!” Having established that the prizes included things like knit caps and possibly the Mayor’s cat, but that you could become famous in the town if you caught the biggest fish in the lake – Benabog, the Line-Breaker – the gang was into actually entering the tournament. Strife drew everyone in to explain his plan – namely, get a fish from the kitchen, hide it away somewhere, and then claim its Benabog when the competition is over. Harold was like “ugh, client wants what the client wants” and headed over to scope out the kitchen by leaning against the wall and listening in – while there was a lot of sound of stuff cooking inside, there was no sound of humans attending things. After all, the owner, the old man everyone calls Uncle, was out pottering about refilling tankards and such. Corvus, seeing an opportunity, got the two largest members of the team to cover him (Rage, six-foot-three, and Harold, he’s fairly tall – what, measuring himself has never come up for a job!) and told them to keep Uncle distracted –
While he shapeshifted into Uncle and made for the kitchen. Harold offered the coin he’d just gotten to Anitari to do something very distracting with his little mechanical cat Tiny – Anitari, eager to help, said that probably his other creation, Small, would be better suited to the task and called in a very large clockwork saber-tooth cat. Perfectly friendly, but VERY rambunctious, jumping about and knocking over tables. XD Unfortunately, this distraction ended up backfiring a bit, as Uncle, after offering the cat some water, declared the pitcher was in the kitchen –
Cue Strife taking over and – after some confusion regarding the way he was saying “Uncle” in a significant manner, and him smashing a Persuasion check while Johnny got a crit 1 – managed to convince the guy that he was his nephew. Despite the fact that Uncle had no brothers or sisters. XD With Uncle now overcoming with inelegant blubbering over finding his extremely-long-lost-miraculous family, Corvus was easily able to slip into the kitchen and find a good-sized fish – it had already been cleaned, but Corvus knew he had some time (what with Uncle sobbing and Rage throwing a wrench for Small to chase – and getting a nat 20 on it no less, so it bounced around the room in all sorts of fun ways), so he just stitched it closed before slipping it down the front of his shirt and transforming into a triton (a humanoid sea-creature, generally of dark blue skin) to hide the fishy smell as he exited the kitchen. (Harold announced this loudly to the room at large, with a bunch of old men sarcastically agreeing it was the triton that smelled fishy, not the fact that they were in a fish-themed tavern in a fishing village. XD) Oh, and if you’re wondering what Celena was doing during all of this, she was nursing her wine and talking to some of the locals about the kinds of fish you could find there (mostly carp and eel), and learning that the real keen fishermen in the area had numbered sections of the river where you might find the largest catches, with the fabled 20th area being where Benabog lived. I guess someone had to get the useful information!
Anyway – after getting a small net off Uncle and promising him to catch some amazing fish and restore the family’s honor, which he assumed had fallen away at some point, Strife came back to the group. Harold commented that there was really no need for them to do any fishing now that they had their “cheat” fish – rather, the thing to do would be to try and sabotage the other fishermen, specifically so they didn’t catch Benabog. Rage and Anitari were both keen on actually fishing, though, and Harold wasn’t about to stop them. So the gang all trooped down to the riverside, where the Mayor threw out the first line with a little whimsical pun about which of the kingfishers would be the fisher king (most people were just like “eeeh”). Johnny took a moment to explain they’d be doing the half-hour of fishing in three rounds representing ten minutes of whatever any individual character wanted to do – if they were fishing, then they’d roll to see if they got a nibble, then roll again to see if they could catch the specific fish against its DC for Wisdom/Survival. Anitari and Rage were both straight in with the fishing – Anitari sending Small and Tiny to catch fish for him, with Rage just leaping into the water to catch fish with her bare hands. Neither of them caught anything on their first go, though (Rage blaming the “murky water”). Harold forewent fishing himself to take a look at the competition, then maybe try to suss out where Benabog might be – despite using one of his special “looking around” abilities on the roll, he got a seven total, so he just ended up gesturing to the water. XD Strife nodded, ran to where he felt Benabog might be most likely to be found, baited the shoreline with bits of fish pie, readied his hand crossbow, and then used his bardic powers to shout Cutting Words at the river, demanding the fish show itself. Final result of that roll was a twenty-eight!
Cue Johnny telling him to make a Dex saving throw as Benabog the eight-foot-long fish himself leapt out of the water. Strife’s expressions were HILARIOUS. XD Even better, before Benabog could try to headbutt him, Harold threw himself in front of Strife with a buckler, as he has a special “Protection” reaction that allows him to fend off attacks for people he’s, well, protecting. Which forced Johnny to roll at disadvantage for the fish’s attack. Cue Benabog knocking itself out on the shield, and Strife poking it with his rapier to make sure it was dead (“It is now,” Johnny informed him). And just like that, first round, STRIFE HAD THE FUCKING BIGGEST FISH IN THE RIVER. XD Corvus immediately flung away the now-very-much-unneeded “cheat” fish and started making a big deal of it to try and do some pickpocketing –
Unfortunately, a combination of a crit one on his part and a dirty twenty on Johnny’s meant that he was immediately caught by the veteran fisherman whose catch he tried to steal. However, this was then followed by an amazing Persuasion check to butter up said fisherman, and suddenly Corvus found himself with a rather besotted fisherman named Mike making googly eyes at him. XD Corvus hastily said that his name was Steven and that he’d find him later, before making his way back over to Strife and babbling about how he had a date and how they had to get out of town sharpish. XD Celena, for her part, attempted to use illusion magic to make it look like Benabog was still out there in the water – I have no idea how well it worked, but she tried!
With that – well. Anyone who still wanted to fish could – the catch was measured on TOTAL length, after all, and if anyone had a total catch longer than eight feet, they could still come first over the sixsome. Rage ended up rolling two twenties in a row on her subsequent attempts to catch fish – as Benabog was already caught, Johnny ruled that she got probably the NEXT biggest fish in the river, two five-foot-long carps. Anitari, Small, and Tiny managed to get some smaller carps – three foot and a foot and a half – while Celena and Corvus, after a really embarrassing second round where they could not get the fish to bite, managed to catch a tiny foot-long eel each in the third. Strife, just for the look of the thing, did some random firing of his crossbow and stabbing of his rapier into the water, ending up with a foot-long eel of his own, and Harold stood around being stoic and probably wondering what he’d gotten himself into. XD We wrap up these fishy shenanigans, and this little one-shot sponsored adventure, tomorrow!
2. Continue writing “Londerland Bloodlines: Downtown Queensland”: Check – after discussing such important things as what Alice expects from her visit to Grout’s (she doesn’t think it’ll be fun at any rate), how spending time with Victor is really the only fun bit of her life anymore (and making plans to maybe see a movie if she comes home early enough), and getting a really weird look from Victor when she rebuffed his attempts to help her pay for fresh shotgun shells from Fat Larry (not being aware that Victor is VERY MUCH good for it), Alice is finally out the door! Gonna have her muse about what the hell was going on with Victor to set up the later reveal of how rich he really is, then finally cut to Grout’s and her arrival there – to see an unexpectedly familiar face. . .
3. Keep up with YouTube Subs: Check plus – everything in the Subs was short enough today that I could clear some stuff out of the Watch Later too! Which is always nice. :)
A) Started with a pair of OXBoxtra lists –
I. “7 Cancelled Video Game Movies that Were Probably Going to be Terrible” – Luke and Ellen reminding us that a lot of video game movies are bad, actually, and we should probably be grateful that a number of them didn’t make it to the silver screen to be bad, actually. From Fox’s The Sims movie going in the complete wrong direction with a game that can change reality and an out-of-nowhere villain in said game, only to languish in development hell before being taken out by The Mouse’s acquisition of the studio, to Microsoft sabotaging its own chances with a Halo movie by being the gaming studio equivalent of a helicopter parent and running up costs enormously in pre-production (though apparently District 9 recycled some of the alien stuff, so it didn’t all go to waste), to the sequel to the Assassin’s Creed movie wanting to do Cold War stuff (and thus not fun historical Assassin fiction, like the games) before, again, it was killed by Disney buying Fox, these video game films were almost sure to be disasters! So be grateful they never came to be. *cue me hoping nothing ever comes of the Alice movie/TV show rumors*
II. “7 Vehicles So Rubbish We'd Rather Walk: Commenter Edition” – Jane, Mike, and Andy taking us through more vehicles so terrible that just using your feet was seen as preferable, as suggested by the comments! Thought the Mako was bad in Mass Effect? Wait until you meet its hovering, even more unwieldy and fragile cousin the Hammerhead in the Mass Effect 2: Firewalker DLC (it catches on fire super easily)! Enjoy speeding around as a hedgehog with rocket shoes in Shadow the Hedgehog? Sorry, the game keeps offering you motorcycles that are slower than Shadow himself because it was the mid-naughties and motorcycles were cool. Want to actually enjoy being around the normally-dangerous Blooper squid in Super Mario Sunshine? Too bad, because surfing on one is an exercise in frustration, as either you’ll complete your lap too slowly to win a proper prize, or smash into something and straight up lose a life. Basically, this is making me realize that I should be very grateful that my Sole Survivor Victor in Fallout 4 has to walk everywhere. XD
B) Then it was over to the Subs for the latest from Josh Way – “SKETCHY: John Wick!” A quick two-minute video showing off three sketches of the titular character, played by Keanu Reeves, from the series that started out as a man avenging the death of the dog that brought him happiness after his wife’s death and somehow they made a beloved action franchise out of that. XD Josh’s art was, as always, very nice, and it was amusing to talk about him saying how John Wick wasn’t the kind of movie he usually likes (he’s not really a fan of more realistic violence), but something about it hit a sweet spot for him. Possibly because the violence is so big it DOES border on the cartoony. He also mentioned a Bill & Ted sketch from ages ago, so maybe we’ll see that in the future!
C) And finally, it was time for more GTA V mythbusting in the Thursday GrayStillPlays minisode, “Busting 5 Bizarre Myths in GTA 5 #shorts!” Myth One: A deer has the most powerful “tackle” attack in the game – true! Gray possessed Meaty Bits to show how a deer can just rip the door off the armored Insurgent car (the one that completed the wall course yesterday), no problem. Myth Two: You can actually outrun mountain lions on flat ground – true! For some bizarre reason, the cat just immediately gives up once you start running away from it – possibly its aggro range is smaller than we think? Myth Three: You can instantly hijack a blimp by standing on top of it and pressing F – true! You just teleport into the cockpit (or whatever the equivalent is on a blimp) and the actual driver gets flung to his death. Myth Four: You CANNOT destroy the snowman behind the slightly-open doors at the Fridgit Factory – true! Gray actually killed HIMSELF trying to show that you can fling stuff ranging from molotovs to sticky bombs to a freaking rocket at the damn thing, and it will be fine. Myth Five: You cannot kill a killer whale by running into it with the aqua car – the only false one of the lot! Apparently if you hit a killer whale with just about ANYTHING, it will die. Sheesh – killer whales be fragile in this universe, yo. Thank you again for your mythbusting services, Gray!
4. Get my tumblr queues sorted: Check, though it took a while – I just wasn’t vibing with any options for Song Saturday on Victor Luvs Alice, so I ended up doing a reblog of the 2009 “United State of Pop” remix, “Blame It On the Pop” (which I actually relistened to this morning, so that was handy). As for Valice Multiverse, that was completely dead, so I threw up another set of my Not-Incorrect Valicer quotes for tomorrow’s queue (the “Slightly Saucy” edition). That and some reblogs of Terry Pratchett/Discworld-related stuff for the Glorious 25th Of May from Night Watch was my tumblr day in a nutshell. *shrug* Could have been worse!
Yeah, the focus is just draiiiining away now. . .and I have to hit the sheets, as I still have a day of work to get through before the three-day weekend. Hopefully it (and my hormones) won't be too bad. . .night all!
