While things are getting better a lot of things are still a trainwreck on my end.
While my cat has responded to the thyroid medication, she can’t take it as a pill which is the prime reason for all of her side effects (including being vomity as all hell)
So the mighty 15 year old furball is going to be getting a topical gel in her ears, and is on anti-nausea medication and a reduced dose of the pills until she can get on the gel.
That’s one thing that’s getting better…on the other hand, the day after I posted my message about things going on pause, an elderly family member banged themselves up in a fall and is still recovering.
So we are still in wait and see mode over here. When we know more, you’ll know more. ๐
Glass is a Threllichock pilot and investigator for House Caladharas. His Threllichock name is unpronounceable to human kind: his human handle comes from his crystalline talons (A rare birth defect among his people, they are considered a mark of ill omen)
Thorondor โIanโ Caladharas is the 18 year old heir to one of the first of the Merchant Houses. An intelligent, independent teenager; Ian has a tendency towards irreverence and and frustration. In all honesty, he doesnโt care what his grandfather says he is heir to, he just wants to have a normal life. Or at least as normal a one as possible. (As my skills improved I made some revamps to this characters appearance to reflect aging and such as well. The top picture is how he is currently modeled. )
Illitock is the personal counselor to Jessica Tindal. Illitock is a member of an insectoid race called the Threllichock (at least as close as we can pronounce it). The Threllichock are the newest race to achieve full sentience and come from a society that was a communal hive. Approximately 7000 years ago, members of the race began to appear that were not members of the hive mind. More anomalies began to appear as the decades rolled on, and citizens like Illitock have begun to be fully integrated into House society. Several of them are now in highly placed positions throughout House society.
Spend any time around 5 year olds? A riddle, like humor, is understandable if you know the context.
On a side note, it appears that an important young man who inherited his position is about to discover that he’s directly related to the bad guys. How will this change his position within the House? It’s really going to be a negative situation – it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.
I would have posted this earlier, but my kitten insists that my keyboard is her personal butt-warmer
@Slamlander, I’m afraid its been 20 years for me. My neighbors son (I’m teaching him chess) is a bit over 5. It’s been … umm … educational and a reminder. ๐
The Kurshid left an unanswerable riddle.

@Ken, I have had kittens kill keyboards before. Cherry Coke and computer hardware do not mix ๐
@Slamlander, They’ll be discussing that, I promise ๐
