I'm sorry, I don't remember specifically which ones were yours. I do try and include what I can, so long as it fits into the story. Everyone here comes up with some really funny stuff.... But honestly, I just can't remember everything everyone wrote. And the story is constantly changing... For instance... take what @adsii1970 wrote: 10 hours ago, adsii1970 said: On 7/27/2018 at 7:25 PM, Just Jim said: "By the Goddess... Rasel... It's Bruberry... Bruberry Kerman!!!" Geschosskopf shouted as he ran up to the poor, long lost Kerbette. Oh, wow... had to go back a few chapters to find this one! What a nugget! Truth be told... I almost forgot about her. If you remember a couple weeks ago I mentioned something about totally forgetting an important fact... I can now tell you it was Bruberry. If the Kraken Handmaiden was possessing Sanny's body, then it means two things: Sanny/Saffron had probably left Saffron's body... and if the handmaiden took advantage and possessed it... then Bruberry would be free... I have plans for Sanny & Saffron... we'll catch up with those two soon... but I almost forgot about Bruberry... and that prompted me to totally re-write the desert part of the story... and I think for the better. I really like how that part played out. 10 hours ago, adsii1970 said: Cool, I've played around with the idea of having a decakerbol - ten sunrises as a week. Good to see someone else plays along with this kind of detail! yup... great minds... lol. I've been toying with what to do about a calendar for the longest time... and while I really haven't decided 100%, I needed something to represent a week... but like you, I decided on 10 days instead of 7... hence "ten-day"... nice and simple... and not Earth-like. 8 hours ago, TeslaPenguin1 said: Hey, @Just Jim, when can we expect the next chapter?

Ho Lam Kerman Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I wonder when the Grand Tour contract will make its way into the story, if you haven't forgotten. I think the Magic Boulder might play a role in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phase I: concoct much-loved zany fanfic to lull masses into false sense of security Phase II: get hired by the very same company, gaining access to SECRETS. Phase III: [ ] Take over galaxy and profit! Nah, this is awesome, and much congrats to @Just Jim (tho I think @SQUAD is getting the better end of the deal, here)!

HansonKerman Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Emiko is gradually becoming less and less poplar, I've noticed. Spoiler also Seeker isn't getting too many views but that's to be expected. Spoiler I think you should know, advances from this book are going to various underground charities somewhere on the Eastern Continent.
