Unfortunately Not a Real Pony

Fragments of Caroc

The Watcher finds what remains of Devil of Caroc in the Deadfire. It brings both of them peace... eventually.

(Gen, teen and up, creator chose not to use archive warnings.)

Each of the seven parts of Wael's totem is an eye. D:

Was killing the bloodthirsty fanatic necessary?

...yes, yes it was.

Oh no, the nice city full of weird scholars burned. :(

Not completely, but still.

I've developed the wisdom to see just how deeply flawed humans are faster than the patience to accept them as is.

It's challenging.

A meeting discussing the project I've been leading for the last two years: awkward and uncomfortable.

None of the speakers know what my pronouns are: hilarious.

It's died down a lot since I hit my thirties, but there's this weird pattern where I mention that I did something and people will assume I did the version that requires the least amount of work on my part.

"I baked this cake." "From a cake mix?"

"I put gutters up on my house." "You hired contractors to do it?"

"I built this thing." "Out of a premade kit, right?"

It shouldn't bother me but it does.

I applied for a new credit card, and the bank asked me what credit limit I want to apply for.

IDK, you're the bank, don't you have an algorithm for this?

Listen, I tried so hard. So hard.

But I couldn't go more than a month without buckwheat.

Four days of progressively worsening leg pain, then nothing on the two days that I had a big lab project, then bad leg pain the next day.

Apparently I just don't feel pain when I need to not be in pain?
