《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 98
Advertisement
I had nightmares again last night. But they weren’t quite so bad as the night before. Tiddol would wake me when I got too restless in my sleep, and it helped. I feel bad for her though, she didn’t look very well rested this morning. If it doesn’t get better or it gets worse I think I'll use Dead Tulip pollen to help me sleep, that gave me a dreamless sleep.
I decided to experiment with that very same flower today. The first thing I had to do was figure out how to work with it safely. I tried using various objects to cover my face, getting Willow to make it rain a little over the flowers, and just holding my breath. Ultimately the solution was pretty simple, for me at least, I figured out that I was able to manipulate the pollen in the air the same way I could a plant, albeit with a tad bit more difficulty.
The most notable thing i managed to do was make a fruit grow from the flower, This fruit did the opposite of what the pollen did, making the one who ate it energetic and awake. The fruit, that has yet to be named, is similar to a peach in shape, but closer to a nut in texture, which is weird because it has a pit. The most interesting part about this discovery was that the Dead Tulip originally didn’t have a fruit, i made it myself using borrowed parts of other plants and a lucky accidental modification of the flowers’ sleeping property, i was trying to make it more potent and failed in an amazing way.
Other than that everything else I figured out with the flower lines up pretty well with what I thought would happen. Making an armor out of it causes a cloud of the pollen to follow me, and gives me the same basic benefits as most other plants, while nothing spectacular came about when I changed other aspects of the flower.

Oh yeah, I've decided to start recording all of my findings in a book, like the one Par showed me months ago.
Now that I think about it I forgot to mention something. A while ago, when they were getting back from one of their trips, Tiddol brought me a bunch of paper, the stack went well over my head. Hopefully, that will last me for awhile.
Anyway, Good NIght Diary. I hope I sleep soundly tonight.

Hack Alley Doctor
It’s 2034, and Derrick Yu is an apprentice mod-doctor at Hack Alley, a prosthetic modification shop in the ugly part of Chinatown. Or, what used to be Chinatown at least. Gangs from all around the country prowl the streets, robbing the locals and refugees alike, as the rest of America is torn apart by greed and poverty. And Derrick wasn’t always an apprentice mod-doctor; he has a secret that could put him in danger if someone found out, especially a gang like the White Leopards. Meanwhile, people around the world are realizing that something’s wrong with their mods. Mod manufacturers like Stoneridge Prosthetics pretend like everything is normal, but not everyone believes them . . . . As the bills pile up, and Hack Alley battles bankruptcy and gangs alike, Derrick’s going to learn to fight back and stand proud, all while installing mods for the community, and upgrading his own. Gangs, secrets, and conspiracies: what else could a Hack Alley Doctor hope for? ********** Vote for Hack Alley Doctor on TopWebFiction! ********** Cover image attributions: Photo by cottonbro from Pexels Hacksaw made by Icongeek26 from www.flaticon.com Blood drop made by Pixel perfect from www.flaticon.com
