I took a detour to stop and see if Mr. Petticord would talk to me. Even though I had lived with him for a few weeks it took the better part of two days to find his farm. Farm doesn’t sound right. Farms are big. Homestead? Squatter shack? I had to stop for directions a coupleContinue reading “Why indeed?”

Garment industry > necromancy
After I left it occurred to me that I never considered if Jackie was actually capable of reading minds. Does that mean I’m getting jaded? Doesn’t seem good whatever it means. I called Jackie’s contact who he said that his necromancy consulting fee is $800/hour. When I said I couldn’t afford that and he hungContinue reading “Garment industry > necromancy”
RIP Stella
T8 says she remembers being in a car accident in Hong Kong just like the police said. She didn’t see the other car coming she just remembers being thrown violently. The seatbelt breaking. The searing pain. She remembers being twisted in a way that her body doesn’t go. She said it felt like it tookContinue reading “RIP Stella”
The comeback
I don’t like noclipping. I haven’t figured out how to control where I show up come back to the real world. I don’t even know if it’s possible to control that. What if I come back and I’m in Peru? Or in the middle of the ocean? I need learn more about this spell butContinue reading “The comeback”
Anti-climax 3 – The Climaxening
The Redacted City Power Suit Gang isn’t happy. Even though I brought them back baseball boy without any violence or publicity, which is what they wanted. I should have lied about bringing in more help. I assured them that a mechanic in Iowa, a drunk old pawnbroker in Louisiana, and another wrestler on the roadContinue reading “Anti-climax 3 – The Climaxening”
Examining the lives and morality of young people at the dawn of the Jazz Age
I took Alpha Chi Delta’s keys and noclipped him. I told him his “brother” was around with food and water in the land of endless yellow walls if he could find him. I parked his Mazda CX-5 by a trailhead. While I was driving his car I thought that I should get a sedan or a vehicleContinue reading “Examining the lives and morality of young people at the dawn of the Jazz Age”
I bet urologists have seen worse
When I woke up Martynova was already gone. I picked up the tailgate special from Chicken Express. 50 spicy tenders, corn on the cob, cheese sticks, mac & cheese, coleslaw, apple pie, biscuits with gravy, and 2 gallons of sweet tea for 34 bucks. I hope some cold chicken is thanks enough for her help. IContinue reading “I bet urologists have seen worse”
Balance
Martynova doesn’t know anyone in the Russian mafia. She hates vodka. She does know a guy named Vadik. She referred to him her cousin but I think he’s really a friend not a relative. He has a farm up near Paint Creek. He was fine with us coming up there at 3 AM to threatenContinue reading “Balance”
Hot in Abilene
I don’t know anyone believed my bounty hunter story or if they didn’t care, or if they all went back inside to call the cops, but no one came out to do anything in response me choking out their apartment manager. Once he was out I went into the apartment and saw Rose Red’s sister slumped overContinue reading “Hot in Abilene”
Part 15 – Trouble with the curve
One time there was this book called Freakanomics. It made the claim that the drug trade is the world’s worst pyramid scheme. This book outlined that the street dealers, who take most of the risk of getting shot by rivals and/or getting sent to prison, make less than minimum wage while the bosses at theContinue reading “Part 15 – Trouble with the curve”
