"They're #washed up."
"Who? #Ash and #Chuck?"
"Yeah. Those two."
"Why so?"
Tim leaned over the starboard bow to point at the desert island.
Gail squinted and spied two figures in tatters waving and jumping. "Oh."
"Yeah."
"So are we going to send a lifeboat to fetch them?"
Tim shook his head, "No, we figured they'd build something out of coconuts and shells."

Character Sketch 1 Takiyasha-tenno

#Wss366 7/20

#Ash was falling as Takiyasha-tenno looked out over her city. As ash neared her familiar, embers woke along their paper-thin edges. The Empress studied the winking lights. If a portent lay there, she kept silent.

“What of Sakura-hime’s consorts?” She asked. Simple language in bass tones was best with the frog.

“Approach unsafe forest,” she heard in her head. “Food?”

The thrush Takiyasha set free flew toward the open window.

Flit. The familiar’s tongue caught it mid-flight. “Warm. Good. More?”

The Empress ignored the request, instead signaling an attendant who resumed brushing her long hair using a fine ash-wood comb.

Note: It’s not much of a story, but this one way I develop characters. I write short non-canon stories and let them reveal facets of the character before I use them in canon stories. Already, I know I need to go back and change a section of my main story where Takiyasha communicates with the frog familiar, and I have firmed up how the familiar speaks, something I already suspected.

"You'd better bring up your shield," Tseluna said. "And I want you to expand it so it covers me too."
"But I still can't do that!" Rory said.
"You don't want me to get hurt, do you?" she said. "In a few minutes, we'll have another shower of burning #ash. Maybe even splashes of lava. If you don't cover me, I might get seriously injured."
"Can't you use your own shield?" he asked anxiously.
"I'm depending on you, Sugar," she said. "You can protect me, can't you?" #wss366 from *A Familiar Problem*

Te Weta 🏴‍☠️

Hello fellow meatbags and friends. I’ve been messing around—doing some crazy-ass writing in an effort to stay sane (shush). It’s weird, fractured, and off the rails—but it’s all me, and as per usual, unfiltered.

Yes, I’m using synthetic tools for polish and artwork. Im embracing the glitch. If you’re bored, curious, or just into sharp edges, maybe you might consider having a nose.

Cheers much, Te Weta 👇

My weird-ass Substack’s live. Sharp, glitchy, and full of bite, I think. The White Rabbit Project: an AI spiraling into madness—and I’m egging it on. Dark loops, existential rot, and half-truths dressed in sarcasm. please concider reading  it before it censors itself or eats its own tail.

Peak in winter with moon dust

And this is my drawing based on Champions of Krynn (MS DOS). We are getting closer to the peak This is name for this place. With castles in the air. Who can believe it, they are real. And there is whole city there. Even two of them. Under the moon.

Some highlights from the #APCAW conference on #AshTrees and #EmeraldAshBorer

#JohnDaigle mentioned chemical treatment on selected trees combined with biological control releases. May not need to keep using chemical treatments if the bio-control takes hold.

EricTopper: "Pheromones could draw EAB away from places which would fall under the bio-control umbrella."
John replied that it has not been tested, as far as he knows.

John Daigle: "The goal ultimately is to co-exist. Get brown ash to evolve to be more resistant, possibly by cross-breeding with other ash trees. That is being done with Manchurian ash and is having success."

Ella MacDonald: "Brown ash used for Wabanaki basket making. Green ash not as suitable for basket making.
We might breed brown with green ash - green ash might be more resistant to EAB. Possibly white ash with brown? However, there us no federal store of black or brown ash seeds. Seed collecting of those two are important. Folks can collect it themselves, after positively identifying the species."
