State of the Me

Finally working on my long-overdue Scum and Villainy recap, but I realized partway through it that recapping five adventures spread over six sessions is going to take quite a lot of typing.  I have Sumatran coffee to keep me motivated and Blue man group to keep me focused... or maybe that's the other way around.

Fiction-writing, in the meanwhile, is progressing at a frankly abysmal pace.  I will by applying caffeine and music to the problem until this changes.

Oat bread makes superlative cinnamon toast, and is perfectly serviceable as a platform for an ambitious tuna salad sandwich, but ia less exemplary as a basil-dill chicken sandwich supporter.

Also, one of my wisdom teeth has decided to make its perennial bid for freedom, shoving my large but crowded mouth into a sort of sore mosh pit on a dance floor of swollen gums.  I am making it sound much worse and more dramatic than it is; it's just an annoying bit of ache.

As ever, the offer remains open:  for 5 cents a word, I will write any commission from 100 to 10,000 words.  My student loans are nipping at my heels again.

Scum and Villainy.

Dramatis Personae

 

Felix – Toydarian Master of Disaster, a one-eyed pilot, sharpshooter, and shipjacker with a rangefinder in his empty socket. Light-hearted despite his perpetual bad luck, Felix has a goal – to steal one starship of every weight class.
 

Hajab – Cranky Mon Cal hyperspace engineer and former Imperial slave, Hajab's primary motivation is spite. He'll prove the academics who spurned his theories wrong... and he'll shut down the secret Imperial R & D project that taught him all he knows. Whatever it takes.
 

Ama – de facto captain, Force-using intrusion expert, disowned Miraluka aristocrat, and droid-building enthusiast, Amareyn is the longest-running member of the gang, there constantly since five intrepid grifters escaped the backwater of Kalarba.

 

Loren – Corellian archaeologist, consummate master of disguise, and gambler nonpareil, Loren's con-man skills, piloting expertise, and inventiveness always seem to plunge his companions deep into trouble's gravity well... but so far, he's always been able to fly them back out.

 

Jark Shakenes – omnisexual Zeltron gunslinger and amiable loudmouth, Jark would be considered a greenhorn if he wasn't so kriffing pink. Whether you love Jark or hate him (and everyone does one or the other), nobody is quicker on their feet or better with a distraction.

 

Missy – Farghul pirate princess, she's been stowing away on misbegotten adventures for years. Finally, her criminal-dynasty family bought her a pinnace (The Wardrobe) and a bodyguard to fly it. A Jill of All Trades, Missy eagerly seeks a gang who could use her skills... or yet another custom-fitted pair of pants. Her ship isn't called The Wardrobe without reason.
