As Shannon lifted his goggles she saw that Bevin’s experiment had been successful. They laughed tasting the substance on the wall. Quantum poultry acceleration actually worked! But where was Bevin? Shannon looked around the lab in horror and realized there was too much goop to just be poultry.

Phred hung his head as his branded prosthetic arm clattered against the plate. Sure his arm was shaped like a joint with a giant logo on it and it didn’t fit quite right but after his prescription one was repossessed it was his only option. Especially after the government shut down the Go Fund Me.

Nothing outside of the manor was affected. It's as though a curse was placed specifically on the folks - an adventuring party - inside. Their allies have been working around the clock for almost a year now, trying to free them. Thank goodness they have more allies than enemies... #TRWrites

He hadn't meant to bring down the mood so much, but losing all of that treasure down a seemingly bottomless pit due to a Nat 1 DEX save was a hard pill to swallow. His friends understood. The dice giveth... the dice taketh away. #TRWrites

I keep trying to communicate that I don't understand them, but no sound escapes my mouth. If only I had better control over the dream, but it seems that they are in charge of this one, twisting the landscape at a whim. I, unfortunately, am only along for the ride...

As a researcher, I found it fascinating, which is what why I studied them for years.
I remember how surprised I was when the oozes gathered, full of all kinds of creatures, then fell into a 30 day hibernation of sorts. Slowly, their food was digested as they grew in size, then duplicated.

I was staying at the local inn. I had no idea there was a massive festival occurring or I would have passed through. But there I was - a hoard of folks dancing with smiles on their faces - mouth agape. They were entirely synchronized like they'd been cursed...

Try as I might to befriend that star, it consistently twinkled out when I needed it, and burned far too bright when I didn't. Reason didn't seem to have an effect, nor did outlandish behavior.
So, I gave up and moved on with almost the whole sky supporting me. #TRWrites
