#WIPSnips "You've only been here a week and you're already causing trouble," I said. "Solving a series of murders is hardly 'trouble'." "Maybe not to you, but I've seen a few very nervous people." Arturo smiled and motioned toward the chair across from him. "Please, sit."

More and more, I want to base my main character from this story on Chi Cheng from Revenged Love. I love that show, lol.

#WIPSnips He clawed at me, crawling on hands and knees to get to me, leaving bloody hand prints on my shirt. "I'll fucking kill you, you miserable little shit!" I kicked him and He fell onto his back, a pool of blood forming on the ground around him. "No you won't." I brought my sword down.

#WIPSnips "I'm sorry. I built a wall between us to protect myself. I convinced myself that I could never love the son of the man who killed my family." "So you do have feelings for me?" "Yes, I do. I love you, in my own way. It's just different from the love I have for him."

#WIPSnips "You can't stay here," Arturo said. "You killed the king's generals. If I figured out it was you, it won't take the others long to catch on." "I need a little more time. I'm almost there. You're not going to stop me, are you?" "Why? You gonna to kill me too?" "Of course not, idiot."

#WIPSnips I was at the penultimate of my goals. All the men involved in the raid were dead. There was only one step left. Walking over to his desk, the purple rose in hand, I pulled the note out of my pocket. I placed the rose on top of it. 'I'm sorry. This is the end. Farewell.'

#WIPSnips "Kei, you don't have to do this." "This is the trail I've walked for six years. You would have me leave it behind and lose everything?" I snapped the stem of the rose and handed it to him. The petals were a deep purple. "I just wanted to be happy for a moment. But the moment's over."

Kei wants to get revenge against the man who killed family, even infiltrating his enemy's family to get close to the murderer. Arturo, a faithful bodyguard, is there to protect him, even if it's from himself. When love gets in the way, a risky plan becomes riskier. #QuestPit #W #F #LGBTQ #RF

#AwesomeCharacters I'd say there are three characters that are central to the story I'm working right now. Caught up in a story of love and revenge.

#NovemberWorldbuilders Purple roses. The represent finality or the end of something. Often it is life that's ended.

"Wait," he said. "I love you. I have a feeling you love me, too." I closed my eyes. I knew if I let him in I'd have to steel myself against moments like these. "I can't, if I loved you, it'd mean everything I've built would come crashing down." I turned to face him. "I am so close." #WIPSnips

@somethingamyss.bsky.social Did you get suspended on Twitter?

Lights are on but nobody is home. We have a broken Roomba for President.

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

Last year, I called my mom when they flew over. We used to go down to the river and ponds a lot and go bird watching. She was in the hospital at the time I called. It's been almost a year since she passed away.

Yesterday, I got lucky. As I walked down to the store, A small flock (probably the last one given the lateness) of Sandhill Cranes flew over. I knew what they were because they give a very specific trill that's pretty recognizable.

Just got a lengthy contract in my email. Things are looking up!

I dropped a piece of chicken on the floor. The cat is not sure what to make of it. She thinks she has to fight it before she eats it. 😂😂😂

Some part of me is glad my mom isn't alive to see what Trump is doing. Her last vote was for Kamala Harris and she passed away before Biden left office and that's for the best.

I was watching some scary videos, kitty came and poked my leg and I nearly jumped out of my skin! Silly kitty! Nearly scaring mommy to death.

I feel much better now. I wish I was doing better. The changes in the weather are causing joint aches and the acid reflux is causing headaches. It's so annoying.

My night was bad. Acid reflux, a terrible headache. I got up and took some medicine for it, so it's mostly better now, but OMG, I couldn't go back to sleep for the longest time.

A quick reminder of someone I think you should block.

Let me go! I won't be tamed!

A silent, inter-faith march near the ICE detention center in Portland, Oregon. The marchers held flowers. 💐

Suddenly getting lots of healing items at once in a survival horror game be like:

I know for a fact that Antifa is not an organization because I don't get emails from them asking for money.

Portland isn’t “war ravaged”. Chicago doesn’t need “saving”. Tylenol doesn’t cause autism. People still care about the Epstein files. Escalators breaking down is not news worthy or an emergency. Medbeds are not the answer. Keep resisting fascism. Ignore the distractions. Fight back.

someone i am professionally affiliated with made a “hot take” about the homeless issue in town on facebook … and someone else has actually compared the homeless to the deer problem in the comments akin to “we keep feeding them so they keep coming back.” and i hate people.

This is what he's wasting your tax payer money on. Gold in the Oval Office. Something no one needed or asked for.

What illegal things were they doing? They said order something or get out. Pretty standard for a restaurant. Or is she suggesting they're illegal because they're Asian? The racism just running rampant. Good for them for standing up to her.

Exactly.

This poor elderly man. Just looking out for his employees and they slammed him to the ground. I hope he wins his lawsuit.

It's not complicated

And prices are going to get even higher as Trump has ICE arrest all the agricultural workers.
