OHNO The worst has happened!

For those who don’t know, my 12-year-old gaming laptop -Beast- is in dire straits.

The soldering on the graphics card has cracked and the card has wheedled its way loose from the motherboard. This requires a tech to open her up completely and reset the card and resolder it to the motherboard, if there’s no other damage to it or the motherboard. I found someone who can do the work within basically walking distance. I just need help meeting the price, which is 200 USD. This graphics card is a necessary piece of equipment in Beast. It regulates everything from power management to sleep/hibernate/lock modes, and is the only piece of hardware capable of reading the languages needed for most games and programs, including Minecraft which (until now) has been my only source of income via customs and commissions. I make very little money outside of this, just barely enough to feed myself and my cat, and I am going to university, which eats up my student loans like no one’s business; this new semester cost me four digits in necessary textbooks and materials alone. Without the ability to actually play Minecraft or like-games, I cannot pay for Beast’s repairs. HOWEVER there is a workaround! I have a slightly outdated manor map I’ve been sitting on for some time; it’s made on a Superflat map so it is actually compatible with the recent updates to the game. Something like this that I’ve handmade from scratch USUALLY costs around 60-80 USD. However, just for this cause, I’ve decided to lower the price to 10 USD! You can see and read about the full map here, but I’ll include some screenshots below too.

Obviously, I can’t remake it custom without getting into the map, and that is impossible for me at this stage. But the map itself is easy to manipulate. It’s Java only, but there are multitudes of conversion programs out there you can use to port it to whichever version you need. I have another map I’m sitting on, but I’m saving that for when I get Beast back from being worked on, as a thanks. There is no cap limit on how many can buy this map, and any excess funds from this sale will go directly into more maintenance to keep old Beast still running hopefully another twelve years. In the case that Beast is unsalvagable, all funds will go toward buying a new laptop instead, so no matter which way this goes, it all goes to making sure I have a functioning laptop to continue regaling you with free content.

If you don’t want the map but still want to help anyway, bless your heart by whatever god or demon you worship friend, and I have a Ko-Fi account you can drop a few bucks into!

sorry for the copious use of beacons i’ve been sitting on this map since way before lanterns became a thing

Congrats to our map owners:

“There was something on your face, I had to get it off.”

Perfectly Platonic Starters

“I did? It musst’ve been from thiss morning when I made my breakfasst, I tend to get a little messy when I sspace out while cooking…and eatin’ at the ssame time.” nervously smiling, perking up a bit. “Thank ‘ye though, I knew I forgot to check my face. Thankfully, no ssheddin’ week yet….I get really bitey when that happenss.”

[stormhawksstork]

At THAT news, Stork reeled backwards. Dramatically so, as was his wont. Deep gasp and all.

“You shed?” He asked, eyes taking up a good portion of his face. After a moment, he looked more annoyed than anything, and face-palmed. “Of COURSE you shed. Why wouldn’t you. As if I don’t have enough –” He took a deep, cleansing breath, as Piper and Junko had been teaching him to do, and raised a finger, slowly pointing it at Soldan. “….I never thought I would have to say this to anyone in my lifetime, but…please….try not to leave your skin all over my ship.”

[serpentine-rogue-inactive]

“It’ss jusst the scaless that need it, sso I’m in my room half the time trying to claw mysself from the terrible itch…I got a few too many minor scarss already from doin’ that!” The side of her scaled cheek, preferably the left- had small clawmarks, faintly visible.  “Cleanin’ my own mess iss eassy to do, sso don’t worry too much! Stork, I can handle mysself pretty good here.”

[stormhawksstork]

Stork blinked at the scars. He was all-too-familiar with scars, having seen the squadron take on many of their own, as well as some he had gained over his lifetime.

“Don’t call me a doctor or anything, but I don’t think trying to claw your face off is a good technique for the itch, as terrible as I imagine it is. I mean, last I checked, faces were needed. But, hey.” He lifted his hands up in a surrendering motion, and used a phrase Finn had picked up recently from the latest Terra. “You do you, sister.”

After a brief pause, however, he put a hand to his chin and seemed to be thinking. “Hmmm...” That yellow, searchlight stare almost pierced into Soldan’s very soul as he looked her over. Plotting, perhaps?

[stormhawksstork]

❝ Okay, that makes my legs hurt just watching it, and my knees are meant to bend that way. ❞

Stork stopped mid-slink and followed Soldan’s gaze. Yes, his knees did bend a bit oddly when he crept about like he did. Everything about his body was wrong, if people decided to dare to look at it close enough. His figure seemed to get slimmer and slimmer as it neared his waist and belly, below his broad shoulders. His toes were like an extra set of hands. His face was long, with a sharp chin and a nose like a cat. And, of course, as Soldan had seemed to notice, his knees bent steeply when he stalked in his...what had it been called by the others? Oh, yes, his “mobile flinch”.

“Mmyeeeeeees? They do that.” Stork attempted to straighten into a more “perfect” posture, which gave him at least a few more inches of height. His back cracked at least twice when he did, in a painful-sounding way, though he didn’t seem to react. It was as if he were used to that, expected it, even. That was either disturbing, or sad. “Overall, this....” He slouched back down, gesturing to himself with the wrist that wasn’t pulled close to his chest, “is the posture I’m used to taking. Knees aren’t exempt from that. I’m....sorry that it hurts to look at? I guess?”

“Come on, sit down. It’s break time.”

That familiar set of green ears perked up at the gentle announcement. Stork paused in the middle of hammering a bolt into place for the Condor’s side paneling. He inspected it with a careful, critical eye, as he always did, and continued working for a moment, as if he didn’t hear Soldan at all. That was very much his way. His ship, after all, and he felt that sometimes the rules needn’t apply to him because of it. When it seemed that he had all but acknowledged her, the bolt was finally settled into the metal to his satisfaction, and he half-turned, clapping his hands together to dust them off.

“That should do it,” he rumbled, pleased. Eying Soldan, he gave a world-weary sigh. “Oh, I guess. But there’s still so much to be done.” But wasn’t there always? With a team of seven, Soldan included, of course, there were always repairs, cleaning, and casual tune-ups. “Five minutes.”

“You look like you could use a coffee.”

“Is that something you want to talk about?”

“Come on, sit down. It’s break time.”

“I needed that, thanks…”

“Here’s a blanket. You looked cold.”

“Thank god you’re back, I need to rant.”

“Is my sweater ever going to be returned?”

“Bad day? Emergency plans are in order.”

“Alright your ride has arrived, where to next?”

“I’m brushing your hair, it’s a mess.”

“You happened to go get lunch and ‘bought too much’ huh?”

“Your hugs are the best.”

“Hey. Hey. Heeeeeey. Come on. We’re gonna be late, get up.”

“I’m late, yes. You should be used to that by now.”

“How long as it been that we’ve known each other? Feels like ages.”

“There was something on your face, I had to get it off.”

“You’re sure people think we’re dating?”

“I think it’s hilarious people assume they’re dating just because they’re nice to each other.”

“I need to hang out with someone I like, can we pretend to be working for an hour?”

“Tea and coffee? What happened?”

“Here you go, one forgotten, left it at home in a rush, lost item!”

“I’m going for a walk, you want anything?”

“… sorry I took a nap on you.”

“I suppose I am now requisitioned to being a napping spot.”

“We could pretend we’re dating, but that might confuse your significant other, and then that might be a waste of petty effort for the sake of rumors.”
