xx48.11.29 / 16:57 / Still Tuesday
I'm still at C2's house. I felt a little bit better after writing that last entry, getting everything out, so I've been helping Mrs Crescent with the household chores. At home we never had to do much, we've got Botler and a lot of automated systems, it's amazing how much work goes into running a household without those things, though. We put on another load of washing and brought the last load in, then we folded and put away, then she washed and I dried the dishes, then there was vacuuming which is actually pretty fun and satisfying, come to think of it the floor of my apartment is getting a bit gritty, maybe I should get a vacuum cleaner. If I do, I'm getting one just like theirs, it's shiny and purple and small and light and it makes this 'vhirrrr!' noise when you push it across the floor.
Then C2 came home with her dad, he picked her up from school, and they brought ice cream for everyone. Mrs Crescent and I were preparing dinner together (roast beef!) but we stopped and went outside to their tiny little back garden and all sat on a bench and had ice cream together.
I think that was one of the best moments of my whole life.
I'm staying here tonight. I don't want to go back to my little apartment and be alone. I still feel a little bit shaky. C2 said Veronica asked about me at self-improvement—I mean she asked EVERYONE, a big general 'does anyone know where Charlotte Powers is?'. C2 didn't say anything, which was definitely the Correct Choice.
I still haven't told them why I was so upset. They haven't asked. I feel like I owe it to them, though. They've been so nice without expecting anything from me. Now I have to do something not just for C2, but for her whole family. It has to be amazing, it has to be the best most appropriate most fittingly incredible thing ever.

So far I've just said "Thank you". That's all I can do right now. It's not nearly enough, but until I figure out how to properly show just how deeply I appreciate everything they've done, it'll have to suffice.
I have to go now, Mrs Crescent is about to take the roast out of the oven.
Families, even families that aren't yours, are more than just great. They're essential.

Binary Soul
So let's say there's this girl. A young girl who happens to be a highly-trained, psionically-gifted, nanite-infused, genetically-enhanced and emotionally unstable assassin that doesn't know the concept of 'mercy' or 'holding back.' Let's say she and her imaginary friend miraculously pass through the borders of reality into an alternate universe, crash landing into a world of swords and magic aboard a starship full of high-tech wonders. Now, let's also say the first person this borderline psychopath meets happens to be her doppelganger - a highly gifted mage who happens to have a few problems of her own, like a bad temper or a bad habit of chronic self-delusion. With me so far? Good. Now, what's the on the agenda for these two different people who happen to be the same person? Settle down, start a family and thoroughly enjoy life. Maybe get married and have some kids. How about befriending a violent alcoholic or defeating an ancient evil being? Perhaps kill a few dragons and wreck a city along the way. Anything can happen around the city of Runetap, after all. It's a place where bizarre and strange things occur on an almost weekly basis. The people living there have long abandoned silly things like common sense or minding the details. A giant flaming UFO streaks above the city in broad daylight? That's just another Tuesday. The City Guard even had the form for that, so believe me when I say this. It's your loss if you mind it. This is the light-hearted and fluffy tale of Ellie and Kira as they forge their own path of absurdity and crazyness across a world that often makes little sense. Loosely inspired by the Discworld series of books by Terry Pratchett, even though the author hasn't actually read any of them. Contains yuri, mature themes and the author's personal views on several subjects. Explicit content is kept to a minimum.Does NOT contain slavery, rape, drugs or any other similarly heavy themes.
