@seventhsanctum liked for a starter with Armadia! (aND I SEE A BAYONETTA HOLY SHIT SO OF COURSE I’M GOIN’ WITH THAT hope that’s okay)

These abilities, which she had longed for, were now beginning to seem like a curse. ... No, curses were much easier to control when she first found she had that ability ... this was more akin to summoning, when at first she was accidentally creating absolutely useless blobs and monstrosities when trying to summon something intentionally. Why she was better at winging it than purposely putting thought into things was still a mystery ... still, the demon eventually got hold of summoning.

But how long would this take?

Walking around like a hallucinogenic chameleon wasn’t exactly preferable to being invisible, but if she chose to hide, she would not be able to interact with clients!

So, for once, she had to start wearing some real clothes as opposed to ones she composed herself. Armadia had stolen a very large black cloak and hood to cover her head, and a dark facial mask that would cover... well, the entirety of her face.

It felt much safer walking around like this... less insecure.

-- Wait, who was this?

She’d spent so much time self-reflecting that she hadn’t even noticed that woman passing by. ... And it was rather creepy how Armadia sniffed at the air, trying to determine if she was human, but with the scent being filtered incorrectly with that damn mask. Granted, it was all stolen, so she couldn’t determine where this fabric had been ... still, through what she could see, this woman at least took very good care of herself.

Perhaps up and murdering her wasn’t the best course of action to take yet. Tempting, but not the best course of action.

Armadia approached her, clearing her throat before asking, “Woman! I should like to know where I have stumbled upon. ... Thhhaaaank you. That’s -- that’s proper, right? Thank you.”

Why I Wrote It - Chance's Muse

(This column is posted at www.StevenSavage.com and Steve's Tumblr.  Find out more at my newsletter.)

Chance's Muse is my first book on my principles for creating random generators. I took what I'd learned over two-plus decades of running Seventh Sanctum and compiled them into a collection of guides and theories.

I created it because of my own sense of mortality.

Seventh Sanctum started in 1999 after I'd made a few random generators. At first, it was a subsection of my personal site, but it became its own thing due to popularity. It is one of the oldest random generator sites on the internet that I know of, and obviously, an older site means an older creator.

In 2018 I realized I had to ask what the legacy for Seventh Sanctum should be. Though I am in excellent health, I will age at some point, and I won't be here. Though I love the site, there might be a time of change that means I'd pass it on. I had to ask, "what should be next."

This resulted in a multi-pronged effort:

I identified an inheritor if I die.

I participate in a community of randomizer enthusiasts, so I have people that may help.

I am rewriting the site in a more modern code base for anyone that may come after me. Plus it helps me keep up on coding.

Third, I decided to write things up in a book. That became Chance's Muse.

Chance's Muse is part of my legacy, something that will be out there when I'm gone. I'm a writer, so obviously, that was one way to pass on what I learned to others. I am not sure how much good it will do, but then again, what is certain?

There will probably be a sequel or two for it, additional legacies for the future.

This is something I want to encourage in your writing - finding a way to leave a legacy. This is part of mine, but I have talked to other people about writing down histories or experiences - one did not live to do that. This is your chance to create something to outlast and to reach others.

The true reason why Futaba didn't trust Aketchi from the start... is because she found out Aketchi skipped parts 1 and 2 of JJBA and went right to Stardust Crusaders and onward.

Soo...

I was playing Duel Links the other day as Joey Wheeler, and beat Kaiba...

Best part is, I didn’t even take any damage, because I managed to summon Red eyes by turn 3! 

So then @seventhsanctum and I started talking and came to the conclusion if this really happened, Kaiba would go crying home to Mokuba, and get SO drunk!

Like the poor man probably would get drunk to the point he wouldn’t even know his name by the end of the night, and would just keep demanding Roland/Isono keep giving him more alcohol!

Headlines the next morning would be as follows:

‘Seto Kaiba hospitalized of alcohol poisoning 3am this morning. Sources say he’ll make a full recovery’

‘Kaiba Corp. stocks plummet as news and conformation of Seto Kaiba’s loss to infamous 3rd rate duelist, Joey Wheeler, hits the U.S.’

‘Mokuba Kaiba takes temporary control over Kaiba Corporation Until Seto Kaiba’s recovery.’

Followed several days later by:

‘Rumors of Seto Kaiba hiring a shrink confirmed.’

‘Seto Kaiba states in press conference he will be taking a break from dueling to ‘re-evaluate his strategies.’

‘Yugi Mutou had no comment on the current situation regarding Seto Kaiba’s recent loss.’

@seventhsanctum(Travis Touchdown) encounters Shimazu Toyohisa

Being a bounty hunter has its benefits, getting heads and money! All the while..this is an occupation he does best and most enjoyed.

Time to go work!

“Leave your heads here!” He told the minions of his prey as he cuts down them before they get the chance to land a hit on him. The henchman has no way to stop his onslaught so they fled, leaving their boss at the hands of this Shimazu man for the sake of their own lives. It matters not as Toyohisa leaps at the boss as if he was death itself, he slashes downward on his prey as he had his head off his shoulders!

Blood spill out onto the ground! Then the man grabs the head and claims victory!

Found out like an hour ago that one of the pixel artists whose games I played as a kid and really looked up to is a huge bigot and Drumpf follower so now I’m just. Twice as glad Steven Savage is a pretty damn cool dude.

Doodled a lil ghost boy from a prompt I got off a seventhsanctum generator:  “This ghost is cute, innocent, and apparently on a constant sugar high. His bone-white hair is bound by a single orange ribbon. His naughty eyes are like two tiger-eye gems. His outfits are artistic, and he has a thing for leather boots.”
