I put out water for the birds.

C-C-COMBO BREAKER! WITH JOON & SHION 331
Oct. 25th, 2025 09:47 am![]() | |
| Welcome back to COMBO BREAKER everyone! The ever lovely Yorigami sisters have returned to count your combos. How high has your combo managed to go? Joon is a brawler and and Shion is never far behind her in a fight (literally)! Joon is all ears for any new moves you might want to show her, especially ones where she can reap the benefits--because the two of them are misfortune goddesses and spending too much time around Shion might make your luck run out and end your sweet combo. | |
| Rules | |
| - Every week you will be able to pick a button, similar to how Pick a Color works. Every button can be either HIT or MISS. - The number of HITs in a row you accumulate is the length of your combo but the moment you get a MISS, you lose all of it. This means if you accumulate 3 hits, then recieve a miss, you CANNOT turn in those 3 hits. If you receive 2 hits, a miss, then a hit, You now only have one hit in your combo, not 3 not 2. - You don't have to play every week to build up your combo! Time that passes between your HITs doesn't matter as long as you don't get a MISS. Feel free to skip a round or two if you decide that it's too high risk or you just don't have time to play!

Database maintenance
Oct. 25th, 2025 08:42 amGood morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!
no thoughts just meme
Oct. 25th, 2025 11:52 amDo you know, I still have a half-written Mabon post somewhere in a tab? Yes I'm aware we're much closer to Samhain than Mabon these days, tl;dr (or more precisely tl;dw, too long, Kimara didn't write) - life very good, have a meme stolen from, among other people,
All links to Dreamwidth posts, as usual, yes this was an excuse to crosspost some more stuff. I had duplicates for a lot of letters, I just ended up linking either the first one I saw or one I thought people should read or the one let me have a slightly more representative spread of fandoms.
Rules: How many letters of the alphabet have you used for [starting] a fic title? One fic per line, 'A' and 'The' do not count for 'a' and 't'. Post your score out of 26 at the end, along with your total fic count.
A β as ice entombs lakes (elder scrolls online, freiwen/maxten)
B β breathing underwater (all elite wrestling, julia/kris)
C β carpet burns and carousels (dare me tv, addy/beth, addy/colette)
D β damaged like me (the locked tomb, cytherea/mercy, cytherea/loveday, cristabel/mercy)
E β eyes down for the casting (buffy the vampire slayer, drusilla/jenny)
F β future politics (star wars: bloodlines, carise/leia)
G β god feared in whose arms i'm sleeping (gentleman jack, anne/mariana)
H β how tall the trees (zone blanche, camille/marion)
I β in your garden, forever (star wars sequels, amilyn/leia)
J β just before a light (the closer, brenda/sharon)
K β katabasis (thoroughbreds, amanda/lily)
L β little red relish (critical role, cassandra/delilah)
M β more guilt on my hands (overwatch, ana/widowmaker)
N β not a song but a war declaration (critical role, keyleth/raishan)
O β or we both will break (fate: the winx saga, farah/rosalind)
P β palms carved on the altars of death (star wars: the old republic, f!inquisitor/zash)
Q β
R β running out of air (lord of the rings books, tom bombadil & goldberry & old man willow)
S β sub-zero, can't stand still (babylon 5, delenn~lyta)
T β tell me about your dreams (chilling adventures of sabrina, lilith/sabrina, mary/sabrina)
U β unfond of memories (true detective: night country, danvers~navarro)
V β vetiver (shirley 2020, rose/shirley)
W β what else is there? (wheel of time tv, lanfear/liandrin, liandrin~moiraine)
X β
Y β you will feed us little deaths (killing eve, eve/vilanelle)
Z β zoya no (zoya yes) (grishaverse, zoya, mal)
24/26! Actually a bit surprised I don't have any fic titles starting with 'quiet'? EXTREMELY funny to me that the only reason I have a Z title is because a decade ago I was too lazy to figure out a title for a 400w long humour piece! I have, delightfully, exactly 300 fics on Dreamwidth now, another, hm, call it a hundred fics on AO3 that still need to be crossposted? I had 420 fics on AO3 when I started crossposting, now down to 277, but there's some duplicates as I'm obviously not deleting exchange gifts, a few fics I decided not to crosspost, and some exchange fics that I haven't xposted yet.
And a textbox, for anyone else who wants to play:

Three-ply yarns where each single is a different wool variety since I was going through and spinning up some samples. Next up will be an experiment in dyeing.

Also, the next owner of this spinning wheel is going to have to live with the aftermarket addition of Warhammer 40,000 base magnets to hold the hecking orifice hook because I keep losing them (and having to DIY new ones out of paper clips - this works quite well and is easy but also, I'm running embarrassingly low on paper clips).
