I'm almost done with the series outline and it's only 62,927 words long.

The outline, not the series.

I think I've buckled myself in for a decade long adventure. Hope society lasts that long, I'm not writing this by hand.

No plans! Ever! No matter how simple my plans the universe always smites them. In fact I fully expect it to somehow smite my plan to have no plans. Don't let it hear us talking about plans! 😶‍🌫️

I'm disabled in a wildly unpredictable way. I could be fine or I could be unable-

That question always depends who you ask.

If you ask the Agency it began when Nina, The Shrouded Legend, started hiding fugitives from them and organizing the Tinorkk populace against them.

If you ask the Tinorkk they'll say there is no current war, but the conflict started-

3 out of 5 of the MC group are invertebrates. Mandy & Midas are sapient plants. Klaus is an ooze. He's neon green, translucent, & can decide to be liquid, solid, or somewhere in between. He can also choose his shape. Technically Kushim is also an invertebrate, as they're the energy-

Many humans who have seen Tinorkk decide they are demons, but no Tinorkk call themselves that. It's offensive to call a Tinorkk a demon, but in a more 'look at this ignorant moron' way than some other things. MC has been mistaken for a fallen angel by humans more than once.

The newest shiny thing I made. It's super shiny in person, the picture doesn't do it justice. It's backed in leather and has a nice weight to it. Did I mention it's shiny?🤩

It's the 4th beaded pendant I've made & though I'm improving it's a heck of a learning curve.

Are we sure no one wants to fund me as their personal art weirdo just to see what things I make? Preferably with the stipulation that we never meet? (I'm weird, I promise it's for the best.) I make shiny things! I need to be able to migrate with the weather I'm not built for snow I'm gonna freeze.🥶

Hey #glutenfree #celiac BlueSky! My gluten free bff is coming to live with me for a while. I do all home cooking because I'm allergic to red meat, but we're a carb heavy house. I know some things I can just buy, like pasta, wraps, & bread. But what's the best method for the all important roux?

Weapons like explosives or tanks would collapse an entire Tinorkk Town. Despite the Agency's many, many problems, they're not looking to wipe out Tinorkk. ...And no one is sure what would happen to the human city the Town is built under & through.

For Tinorkk...a chorus.

Tinorkk facts!

Many Tinorkk have face blindness when it comes to humans.

Most species have longer lifespans & reproduce less than humans.

Many Tinorkk species stay children longer than human kids.

All Tinorkk have a natural inclination to 1 type of magic. (Green, mind, force etc)

Agents have physical, magical, & historical (propaganda) training. Most can at least activate their magically enhanced gear. They have Cop City style Tinorkk Towns to train in, as they're different from human cities. There are a LOT of "which Tinorkk is this" flashcards.

The closest thing to a military involved is The Agency. The Agency has several divisions. SWAT teams for dangerous, violent Tinorkk (a label they apply widely). Everyday policing (harassing). Scientists to study magic & artifacts. Intelligence gatherers. And Max. Max handles-

Maximilian Maximoff is more of a symbolic leader than an actual one. He's the Golden Descendent, may times great grandson of Perceus of the Medusa legend. Immune to most magic, super fast, super strong, super durable...and a bit of a himbo who relies heavily on his sidekick.

There are many large mammal Tinorkk. Whales are Tinorkk. Their songs are slow magic & they have 2 legged forms to walk on land. Elephants also have a smaller, 2 legged form they can choose to better interact with other Tinorkk, though it takes their whole herd's song to change.

"Humanoid" is considered an offensive term among Tinorkk, as it centers humans as the norm. It'll get you dirty looks at best in a Tinorkk Town, possibly cursed. If you say it to the wrong person you might just not come back out. 'Noid could make a good Tinorkk slur for humans 🤔.

No small mammals of note in Drops of Gold. The smallest Tinorkk you'll see is about half the size of an adult human, not all are mammals, & all Tinorkk are sapient. Might add a background pet, but I have the No Animal Gets Hurt Rule, so I have to keep them out of big plot events.

Made a double batch of cranberry orange muffins in case of snow-poclypse, but misread 4 TEAspoons of orange zest as 4 TABLEspoons. The result: delicious, very moist, could use a more orange.

Which is particularly odd since I also used orange sugar. (Clementine peels blended with sugar & dried)

Sometimes, when you're disabled with chronic pain, you can have a Tylenol, as a little treat.

I mostly focus on my hobbies because I don't have anything new to add to the Big Events. But to be clear:

ICE is evil.

Trump & his cronies are too.

Trans rights are human rights. I'm agender

Queer people are here to stay & we've always been here. I'm asexual & aromantic.

No human is illegal.

Centaurs used to exist. When humans started to push Tinorkk out of their homes and into hidden cities, centaurs knew they wouldn't do well in tight places. Instead of trying to make do they fought back. Unsuccessfully. It's rumored a few clans are left, hiding in wild areas.

The Agency, who are more soldiers and police than most Agents would like to admit, have excellent healthcare. Countries without universal healthcare have their own Agency insurance companies that actually cover things instead of fight to make a profit. Every country also-

You hear maniacal laughter in the living room and come running in, wondering what wanna be comic book villain is trying to take over this time. But it's just me, smoothing a clay test tile, muttering "stimmy stimmy stimmy" between cackles, because my kiln is finally up and running.
