So, a Chia-Pet is just a clay bust of P'Thok that you smear gel containing grass seeds on and it grows green grass like hair?
But that's stupid, P'Thok didn't have hair...

Apparently it's up and running, producing toys right now.
The four LawSec and two government officials received gifts that they're blasting all over social media right now.
The Treana'ad ambassador who arrived last week was just gifted a "Genuine BobCo Autonomous Animatronic Moomoo" by the BobCo AI. Not a digital sentience, an actual AI. The Ambassador is taking vids of him petting his Moomoo and having it do tricks. He's lording it over every other Treana'ad in existence by posting it to the Smokey Cone diplomatic site.
The Treana'ad Matron in charge of the diplomatic team received a P'Thok ChiaPet, a fishtank full of Genuine Sea Monkeys, a Robotic Nanite Circus of Wonders, two minature RealMoomoos, and a Genuine BobCo HoloHat.

She's currently talking to the hive matrons on Smokey Cone wearing the Holohat and petting her minature moomoos on the video conference to the other matrons.
I think one is frothing at the mouth in envy.
I better get a hand on this before there's a riot.

He's a little busy. The BobCo SolNet "Always Online" store is so overloaded it's actually reverted to a 2.5D storefront with limited interaction.
AHA!
They DO still sell Fantabulosa Pond Paddling No-Windup Squeaky Ducklings that sing over 100 duckling songs.

Dammit, there was 1.2 million left when I read that out loud, now it's "Temporarily Out of Stock".

Fateful
Edgar Vogel was a 30 year old underemployed veteran who dropped out of college. His life was comfortable but all ambition was lost. His plans, born of depression and anxiety, were to simply live out his life of mediocrity and enjoy what little he could. That all changed, all it takes is something small to change fate, in his case ice. Reborn into a primitive but fantastical world, full of magic and monsters, he may make something of himself. Oh and there's a massive war against werewolf hordes on the mainland. Edgar, now Jon, has a second chance at life. His previous life was reduced to fragments of technical knowledge that come to him in the form of visions. His new home, the Northern Isles, is far removed from the conflict of the mainland for now as he lives in the quiet frontier village of Terra. His new family believes that fate can be changed and destiny overruled but he has no idea. Whether that's true or not, being told by a crazy old lady that his fate starts with him sitting by a rock in the middle of a field seems wrong, but who knows? Maybe she's right but what's the bit about 'await the bite' supposed to mean? Jon soon learns and his life changes forever. What can a young boy who's gained wolven-blood do? Will he be a monster or will he find salvation? Jon was bitten. ********************************************************************************** Welcome to the Northern Isles. My first story posted on here! I already have the outline of the first couple of books planned out and will be posting a new chapter every Tuesday and Friday. The story will be dark at times but I intend to keep things fairly light when I can. I'm aiming for a world that isn't full of sunshine and rainbows but isn't as bleak as it could be. Focusing on friendship, camaraderie, sh*t talking, and adventure.
