WHAT: hdu criticize my haunted house
WARNINGS: none!

Right, so, I have a favor to ask of you all. Viktor and I have been supplying a haunted house with plenty of scares for the month, and I asked my brother and a passer-by to test it out. They came away amused enough, so we figured that would be the end of it.

[A beat.]

Apparently our animatronics and special effects are, I quote, "too scary for our customers," which is a terribly ridiculous thing to say about a haunted house but. Anyone here willing to go through it so we know exactly how scary it actually is? I promise the realistic-looking draconic maw that welcomes you is little more than clockwork with cloth over it.

What: Carolyn got a surprise in the mail
Warnings: None

[The video turns on to Carolyns face close to the camera, visible bags under her eyes]

I don’t know why but for some reason ever since this cursed app showed up on my phone things that shouldn’t be possible or happening keep popping up. I get a package in the mail and I think it’s supplies I need for an experiment but no it’s this thing.

[She whips the webcam over and down, the oversized sleeves of her hoodie covering the camera briefly. When the camera is clear again it shows a ribombee in a tiny lab coat, sitting on her desk going to town on a pixy stick. The rest of the desk is littered with papers with formulas written on them and the remnants of a very large bag of assorted pixy sticks. The camera whips back up to Carolyns face.]

And as if the insect wearing clothes wasn’t enough there was also what I thought was a walking stick but the moment I touched it—

[The camera whips over again, this time in the other direction. As the camera refocuses it reveals a small teal wyvern perched on her shoulder wearing a tiny monocle.]

It turned into this. This goes against literally every law of nature. AND WHY DO ALL THE CREATURES SENT TO ME HAVE ACCESSORIES. I’m either in a coma or someone is pulling a prank on me. That’s got to be it.

[The camera goes to black as she keeps rambling to herself, the little wyvern nuzzling against her before the video ends.]

WHO: Venti and the Libra/Gemini Network!
WHERE: Libra and Gemini
WHEN: End of October
WHAT: Lo-fi beats to listen to while getting a prophecy for November.
WARNINGS: None~ unless you're scared of bears.

[In the background, characters can hear music playing. It's gentle and soft, not overwhelming Venti's voice as he speaks to everyone.]

Hey, guys~! I'm mid-stream right now, so apologies that I gotta make this short.

So the wind brought to me something interesting. Apparently, our dearest good boy, Lycaon, in his youth didn't know which mushrooms were actually edible and just... ate one. To find out. I'm certain you can connect the dots on what happened to our poor pup at the time~.

[He loves and adores you, Lycaon.]

But the winds have wanted me to use this as an example of family secrets coming to light next month. Those secrets miiiiiight not be as harmless as finding out the hard way to not eat unidentified mushrooms. Considering the holiday next month... that feels about right.

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

AWS outage

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
