2024.05.09 14:33 Jackviator A Perfect Girl in an Imperfect Universe

Wanted to try something different today. This is a follow-up of not just one, but TWO previous one-shot (or so I thought at the time) stories of mine; if you haven’t already, feel free to read them first if you want a bit of background context, but it’s not necessary to understand what’s going on in this story.
As always, I hope you enjoy :)
——
Gakdra nervously paced in her transport pod, dreading the inevitability of the doors opening when she arrived at her destination. Then, she suddenly felt a familiar touch, and an even more familiar voice in her ear.
“Buttercup, at this rate you’re going to wear out your shoes.”
A weak smile crept onto Gakdra’s face as she glanced down to see Jennifer carefully hugging her from behind, placing herself perfectly to avoid her sharp quills.
Jennifer was a human who she had first met in the second year of what her adoptive human parents called “high school,” and had known for several years since as they both went through college and beyond.
A human her age who had tutored her after school, so as to help her overcome the difficulties her stunted education (courtesy of the chaos of the foster care system) brought her. Sessions that eventually became completely unnecessary as Gakdra caught up. …A fact that both parties were well aware of (and aware that they were both aware), but neither side made any attempt to acknowledge.
A human who didn’t seem repulsed by her quills, pitch-black eyes or needle-like teeth, much less the various chemicals deemed deadly neurotoxins by the galaxy at large that her kind both needed to breathe and produced from their very bodies.
A human who had insisted on getting the risky saryncite-inoculation treatments, after deciding that it might help Gakdra “learn” better if she was in the same room with her, instead of separated by sheets of diamondglass and countless layers of airtight filters.
…A human that had wasted no time in finding out that despite her inoculation against the toxins saryncites produced, her lips nonetheless still tingled when firmly pressed against Gakdra’s own.
Gakdra sighed and spoke, her auto-translator filling in the gaps for the unique language saryncites used, albeit one only the females of the species could speak audibly.*
“Force of habit/routine/tic. …You know how nervous/afraid/worried I get going out in public.”
She turned and embraced her lover back, careful not to pierce Jennifer’s skin with her sharp claws as she wrapped them around her waist. Gakdra murmured more than spoke as she continued.
“I still don’t know how you do/perform/achieve it. And in front of all those people…”
“Lots and lots of practice, just like we’re doing right now for you.”
Gakdra let out a reluctant groan.
“I still wish we could just have them delivered to our home/nest/safe-place…”
“And have you miss out on a chance to chip away at that agoraphobia of yours? No.”
Jen gestured towards the planet’s scenery as they flew over it at great speeds, from wide swathes of terraformed forest greenery to massive colony-cities bustling with busy inhabitants.
“You deserve to be able to enjoy the outside world just as much as anyone else, and that means practicing doing just that until you’re not afraid of doing it anymore. …Remember what your therapist said? You just need a few accommodations here and there. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Jen reached up and placed a hand on one of Gakdra’s snow-pale cheeks. An impressive feat, given Gakdra stood a head or two higher than her, at over two meters. Gakdra gently rested her own clawed fingers over it, her face gently nuzzling the human’s soft palm as their fingers interlocked with one another; one set clawed, one set bearing comparably soft and fragile nails.
“…Yes, I suppose you’re right/correct/factual. Doesn’t mean I enjoy the transition process of getting to that point…”
“That’s still not an excuse to put this off to the point you’ve only got a few days left until you’re completely out of your meds.”
“I know, but what was there to say/communicate/talk? It didn’t become urgent/necessary/needed until this week.”
“I consider it urgent. …You’re anxious enough while already on your meds; I don’t want to see you even risking the pain you’d go through going without them.”
Jen’s hand fell away from Gakdra’s face as the transport pod gradually began to slow, signaling their arrival. Gakdra peered out of the diamondglass windows at the pharmacy’s walls before the view was blocked by the pressurized tunnel the pod stopped in front of. It was one of only 40 pharmacies in the entire star sector with the proper equipment to facilitate servicing saryncites like herself; and given that this sector measured in the hundreds of light years across, that was saying something.
Gakdra took a deep, shaky breath before reaching for her environmental suit.
“I can/will/shall do this… I can/will/shall…”
“That’s the spirit.”
Jennifer’s eyes flicked up and down Gakdra’s body, and she spoke again; this time with a playful grin.
“…It’s certainly more fabric than I’d prefer you be wearing, but did you need any help with the suit?”
Gakdra couldn’t help but blush at Jen’s teasing as she fastened various seals and locks into place around herself.
“No, I should be fine/satisfactory/competent.”
Jen winked at her.
“Alrighty then; I suppose I’ll just have to help you out of it later…”
Suffice to say, Gakdra’s flustered cheeks were thoroughly flushed with her species’ green blood as she stepped out of the vehicle and into the pharmacy’s saryncite entrance, clad in the suit which kept those around her safe.
She shakily walked down the sterile white corridor, listening intently for any signs that her suit may have popped a leak, but she heard nothing. The silence offered little comfort; she hadn’t heard the ever-so-slight leak that had tragically claimed one of her foster fathers’ lives either-
Stop that thought. They have safeguards. I have accommodations. I deserve to experience all the galaxy has to offer, just as anyone else. They have safeguards. I have accomodations-
She continued the internal mantra her therapist had taught her as she walked until she had eventually made her way to the end of the corridor; a wall adorned with only a diamondglass window and a microphone.
Gakdra timidly rapped on the window. It took several seconds of this before she attracted the attention of the arthro* pharmacist standing at the other end of the room, whose name tag read “Zetzana Bik’du”; it was almost as if he was pointedly ignoring her. He glanced up from his tablet with an irritated glare.
Gakdra nervously swallowed.
“Hello again. I-I’m, uh- …I h-have a prescription to pick up/acquire/take-”
Zetzana dismissively waved a limb, cutting her off.
“I know, I know; this is the third time we’ve done this little song and dance. …To answer your question, no, we still don’t have it.”
It felt as though Gakdra’s heart sank into her stomach.
“W-what‽ But- …I-I reached out directly to the manufacturemakeproducer for a replacement order, and t-they-”
“I don’t know what they told you, but neither of your ‘scripts are here.”
“S-surely the medications must have b-been misplaced/misorganized/lost somewhere in the building, o-or-”
“Listen, we’ve searched this place top to bottom. The whole staff got involved. …I don’t know what to tell you, but if you want your precious meds, you’ll have to head elsewhere.”
His species’ equivalent of a sneer crept its way onto the arthro’s face.
“So go ahead and leave-exit-leave, or whatever the gobbledegook translator you’ve got wants to hear to let you know to get out of the building. …Every extra second you spend in here is another minute we have to get the air scrubbers to decontaminate the hallway.”
Desperation crept into Gakdra’s voice.
“The manufacturer s-sent/distributed/provided me video evidence of them d-delivering the order to you, and of the d-delivery of the replacement order I requested. P-please, I-”
“I could have the authorities remove you if you’d prefer, blight-breather. …Up to you.”
Gakdra was on the verge of crying, not least because of the slur she had just been subjected to, but she slowly, reluctantly turned and walked back down the hallway with as much dignity as she could muster.
…She had long-since crossed the point of tears by the time she made it back to the doors leading out to her transport pod.
As she pulled off her helmet to reveal a face streaked with the purple of her species’ tears, Jennifer looked up from her wrist-computer with alarm.
“Buttercup? What happened-‽”
“They- …t-they don’t have it again, and the p-pharmacist was- h-he…”
Gakdra started hyperventilating, stifling her attempts to explain. In an instant, Jennifer was in front of her, gently taking her by her face, forcing Gakdra to look down at her as she wiped the tears from her face.
“Buttercup. Look at me. Look into my eyes. I’m here. I’m right here. You’re ok. Look at me. Look into my eyes-”
Jennifer’s softly repeated mantra derailed Gakdra’s panic attack before it could get up to speed. It was a skill Jen had mastered early in their relationship, while they were still separated by diamondglass; her words alone were enough to calm her. …Yet another reason Gakdra was endlessly thankful for Jen being in her life.
Gakdra’s legs were wobbling under her as Jennifer led her to her seat in the pod so they could look each other in the eyes without Jen having to crane her neck up to look at her. She took a shaky breath.
“They didn’t give me the meds. They’re there, they must/should/HAVE-TO be, but the pharmacist clerk/spokesperson/representative keeps insisting they’re not, that they searched all over, a-and he w-was so unkind/mean/rude, and threatened to sic security on me, and he- …h-he called/named/insulted me a-”
Gakdra broke down into tears again. Jennifer gently wrapped her arms around her, holding her close in a comforting embrace, just being there for Gakdra while she processed her emotions. Eventually, she calmed down enough to finish her thought, albeit in a voice barely above a whisper:
“He called/named/insulted me a blight-breather…”
Jennifer’s arms fell limp at her sides. Gakdra looked up to see Jen staring at her in shock, her jaw only closing once she went to speak.
“He what‽”
“He called/named-”
Jennifer cut her off with a sharp gesture.
“Nonono, I heard you just fine the first time, no need to say that- that fucking slur again. I just-”
Jennifer faltered, her expression turning from shocked and furious to pensive.
“…What was his name, and species?”
“He was an arthro, and I think it was- …Zepzania, or something…? Why?”
Gakdra looked up to see Jennifer moving to the manual controls of the transport pod.
“…What are you doing?”
“Driving us to the pharmacy’s almost-universal species parking lot. …I’d like a conversation with a certain employee.”
Gakdra’s eyes widened.
“But-”
“Nope. Not gonna be dissuaded from this.”
Gakdra sputtered for a few moments before letting out a quiet sigh. She knew Jennifer well enough to know that there really was nothing she could say or do here that would halt whatever was coming next.
“…What do you intend to do/achieve/perform?”
Jen winked at her.
“Like I said, just a conversation or two.”
Gakdra’s eyes narrowed.
“Would this be a normal conversation, or a human euphemism for violence/hurt/pain-causing?”
“Do you trust me?”
“Completely. You know that. Even still, I have no desire/wish/hope for you to be arrested for assault.”
Jennifer chuckled as she pulled into a parking spot.
“Nor I, which is why I want you to take this.”
She held out a small tablet towards Gakdra, who glanced down at it with a confused expression.
“Your interview slate/tablet/computer? But why…?”
Jen winked at her again, a mischievous twinkle in her eyes as she did so.
“You’ll see.”
Her expression softened as she got up and hugged Gakdra again, before whispering in her ear.
“I just need you to keep something in mind for me; what you see me say and do next is not me, you understand? It’s a persona; one of countless others that I used to have to put on before the promotion, for my more investigative work.”
“…Ok…?”
Jennifer gave Gakdra a gentle kiss on the cheek, sending what could only be described as a warm chill rippling down the saryncite’s spine.
“Good. I’ll be right back.”
Jennifer pulled out a pair of sunglasses, and as she put them on and entered the transport-pod’s airlock she tapped a tiny, almost imperceptible button on the frame; nigh-invisible unless you already knew it was there and were deliberately looking for it. A video feed suddenly appeared on the tablet, and Gakdra’s eyes finally widened in understanding.
Jennifer walked into the pharmacy with a carefree air, looking around as subtly as she could, and allowed herself a smile as she confirmed that she was the only customer in the building. She casually walked up to the counter and rang the bell. Zetzana slowly made his way out of the back office and headed up to the register.
“Can I help you?”
Oh, can you, Jennifer thought to herself. Can you ever…
Step One of bringing about someone’s downfall: Get them to underestimate you.
With practiced ease, Jennifer put on her best “ditzy-airheaded-bimbo” act, passable valley-girl voice and all.
“Yeah, I was, like, wondering where the human painkillers were at? I’ve got a nasty hangover.”
…Back in the transport pod, Gakdra couldn’t help but descend into a snicker-fit at Jen’s antics.
Zetzana pointedly glanced around at the countless directory signs above the aisles and self-serve search terminals that could have easily prevented this interruption to his work day, then let out a weary sigh.
“…Aisle 5, second shelf from the bottom.”
“Like, thanks!”
Jennifer walked away and grabbed the cheapest store-brand meds she could find. As she went back and had the reluctant arthro begin to ring her up, she put on her best facade of innocence.
“Hey, I, like, had one more question, just cuz I’m curious and stuff; what’s the deal with that, like, weird extra entrance to the building, with the tunnel and stuff?”
Zetzana couldn’t help but let the subtlest of sneers slip onto his face for a moment before he remembered himself.
“That’s the saryncite entrance.”
Jennifer’s jaw dropped.
Step Two: Get them to think you’re on their side.
“You let those- …things into the store‽”
Zetzana’s eyss widened slightly in surprise, but he gave her an approving nod.
“Unfortunately. Officially, we’re not allowed to discriminate based on species. Unofficially, I completely understand your concern and wish it was otherwise. …If it’s any reassurance, that part of the building is brand-new, and completely hermetically sealed. It’s as safe as it gets.”
Step Three: After you help them take off their mask, plant the dagger you had behind your back in their hand and let them choose one of their own arteries to go for.
“But, like, you let blight-breathers into this place‽ Seriously‽”
Gakdra’s quills rippled in unease at this, but she just closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and remembered Jen’s reassurances.
Back in the pharmacy, Zetzana smirked.
“Not afraid to say the ‘quiet part’ out loud, I see. …Yes, ever since that portion of the building was constructed a few moons back, we do occasionally have to handle the blight-breathers. Though, thankfully, not that often so far, and I’m trying to make it as infrequent as possible.”
Step Four: As they’re bleeding out, let them keep digging their own grave.
“Like, how so?”
Zetzana smirked. They were alone in the store, he was the only one on shift, and whoever this was, she clearly wasn’t remotely intelligent enough to be with the galactic authorities; he could say the ‘quieter’ part too.
“Withholding medications, and- …other stuff like that. …I actually just had one of those animals in here about ten minutes ago, here for her precious anxiety meds. Told her the entire staff searched all over, and we didn’t have them.”
He theatrically looked from side to side before leaning closer.
“…Truth is, they were “improperly filed” straight into my trash can. ‘The entire staff looking for ‘em?’ Ha, I’m the only one who even knew about that prescription in the first place!”
In the transport pod, Gakdra felt as though her blood had turned to ice, and it only got worse as Zetzana continued.
“I’m fairly certain she’s not coming back this time; she was practically sobbing out toxins when I sent her away without her prescription. Hopefully, she’s run out at this point, and in a perfect universe she’ll off herself without them so no one has to look at her ugly, toxin-spewing face again. …Then again, the fact that her kind exist in the first place kinda disproves that notion, eh?”
Despite wanting nothing more than to rip his smug mandibles off his face and use them to gouge out his pride-filled eyes for what he had done, Jennifer smothered the inferno burning within her for the moment and just put on her best approving grin.
“Woah, that’s, like, super smart! …Is anyone else here doing stuff like that?”
“As far as I know, I’m unfortunately the only one here that’s done this so far, but at least no one else has caught on.”
Step Five: Twist the knife.
“Oh my gosh, this is all, like, so brave of you. Are there other blight-breathers you’ve screwed with like that?”
Zetzana felt a warmth in his chest at the skin-suit- or rather, human’s (she was clearly one of the good ones) kind words, and a thrill in his heart as he looked around the store to make extra sure he was safe. Finally, he had someone else to talk about this with…!
“Well, there is one other thing; the first time I did something like this.”
He leaned closer, his voice barely above a whisper.
“I had a blight-breather show up here a few weeks ago with a prescription for heart pressure medication. …I sent him home with a cocktail I whipped up myself based on my knowledge of their species that should send his blood pressure through the roof, without toxicology noticing anything amiss if he were to be autopsied. With luck, it should kill him, if it hasn’t already.”
In the transport pod, Gakdra was well into the beginning of another panic attack, and Jennifer nervously swallowed, but otherwise she held in her shocked horror and retained her composure as she replied.
“Like, nice! Hope so too. …Anyway, it was super good to meet you. I’ll, like, catch you later.”
As she turned to leave, Zetzana called after her.
“Say, have I seen you before? You look kinda- …familiar.”
Jennifer felt a slight twinge of worry, but she just gave him an innocent smile.
“I’ve been told I have, like, one of those faces, I guess?”
Zetzana shrugged.
“I guess. …Well, in any case, good to meet another kindred spirit out here.”
As Jennifer left the pharmacy and walked as fast as she could toward the transport pod without arousing suspicion, she gave endless thanks to whatever deities might be out there that his sentiment couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Step Six: kick them into the grave, and grab the shovel.
——
TWO DAYS LATER
“I’m, um… just glad that, h-he was stopped/halted/prevented b-before h-he, uh- …uh……”
Jennifer winced as Gakdra suddenly buried her face in her hands, motioning to the camera operator behind his diamondglass barrier to cut the feed. Gakdra stifled a small sob as she looked up to see the concerned face of her girlfriend staring back at her.
“I’m s-sorry, I j-just- …couldn’t I just give a written/typed/unspoken statement? I-I’m- …s-so, SO many people will see/observe/judge, and- …I…”
Jennifer kneeled down to take Gakdra’s clawed hands in her own, silencing her flustered sputtering.
“Buttercup, some statement being read aloud on a screen isn’t going to be nearly as effective at making people empathize with the story. There needs to be a person behind it- even if it’s just a blurred face with a voice filter, like we’re going to do- to show those watching that there are real people out here being hurt by him and those like him. …And we can’t exactly get a statement from the other guy until he’s stable enough to do so.”
She gently kissed Gakdra on the forehead, giving her a warm hug as a chaser.
“…Still, if you really, truly want to stop, I won’t push you; we can work with a written-”
“No.”
Gakdra took a deep breath, wiping her tears away as she shook her head and collected herself.
“No, I- …I can do/perform/complete this.”
“You’re sure?”
“Yes/affirmative/indeed.”
Jen gave her an encouraging smile.
“That’s my girl. …Ok, let’s start from the top…”
——
TWO DAYS, SIX HOURS LATER
“This is Collective sector 7B news; I’m your host, Jennifer Hill-Thruximoff. …Full disclosure, I’m personally involved in this next story, so to ensure an unbiased report I’ll have my co-host, Jundo H’rissian, step in.”
“Thank you Jennifer. …Thursday evening saw the arrest of a pharmacist in the colony city Clarity on planet Hreshlaka-9, located in galactic sub-sector Mu-4, for alleged hate crimes. The pharmacist in question allegedly deliberately withheld medication from one client, and poisoned another. These actions were apparently motivated by the clients’ nature as saryncites.
“Local authorities were alerted upon receiving a video from our Jennifer, who managed to coax a shocking confession of his wrongdoing out of the individual in question. The contents of this confession were seemingly confirmed when authorities found discarded medication in the perpetrator’s personal waste bin, and sabotaged medication in the home of another victim, who was unconscious on the floor when Collective officers arrived.
It was speculated by one of the paramedics on scene that if the officers had arrived even an hour or two later, it would have been too late to save the saryncite in question. Said saryncite is now stable and recovering in a local hospital, and was even able to provide a statement, which will be played alongside an interview with the second victim after the video that started all this, which will be presented now-”
Zetzana was passing his time giving a death glare from his jail cell at the projection on the holo-vid player. One of the sector security officers nearby, a bitis involved in his arrest, gave him a grin.
“Y’know, I do believe they’re talking about you. You’re downright famous!”
Zetzana’s glare only intensified as he glanced at the officer.
“Zip it, scale-tail.”
The bitis just laughed.
“Oh boy, you just don’t stop, do you? You kiss your hatchmother with that mouth? …Ooo, speaking of-”
The bitis glanced down at her wrist-computer.
“Was doing a bit of research for the case against you, and wouldn’t you know, something quite interesting turned up from a few years back... ‘Member of school board resigns in disgrace after video of hate-filled rant goes viral.’ Sound familiar?”
Zetzana let out an angry hiss, but otherwise remained silent. …This, of course, didn’t stop the officer.
“Mm-hm, I thought it might. Let’s see here… ‘Slurs were directed at a juvenile bitis, a human, and the sexual orientation of the parents of the former.’ To borrow from the humans, ‘the apple sure doesn’t fall far from the trunk,’ eh? …At least, I think that’s how that goes…”
The officer gave him another grin.
“What is it with you, lesbians, and secret recordings of your family’s hateful rants by quick-thinking humans?”
“Shut up. …Don’t speak of my hatchmother. It’s not your business.”
If her species had eyebrows, the bitis would have slowly cocked one as she looked back at the article.
“In a perfect universe, that would be true; but in truth, it is my business to protect people from those like her and yourself. People who do things like, oh, I dunno… To quote: ‘The incident began with the circumstances surrounding an altercation between the school board member’s teenage son and a student half his age, whom he assaulted.’”
The officer looked back up at Zetzana with newfound disgust.
“You really are just a bully aspiring to mass-murder, aren’t you.”
She glanced over once again at the holovid, which currently featured a recovering saryncite sitting upright in a hospital bed, giving an interview.
“Thankfully unsuccessful, but an aspirant to it nonetheless. …Just a sad little boy, whose only source of comfort is the lies you tell yourself about you being inherently better than those around you based on meaningless differences. Your mother must be proud.”
The bitis sighed as she began to slither away from the silent-but-stewing arthro.
“…But of course, the greatest proof we don’t live in a perfect universe and saddest part of this whole mess is that she probably is.”
——
3 DAYS LATER
Jennifer walked back through the hermetically sealed airlock to her abode holding a small package.
“Mail’s here.”
She winked at Gakdra.
“Package for you…”
Gakdra glanced up at Jen’s outstretched hand from where she lay on the couch, squinting at the label for a moment before her face lit up with a relieved smile.
“My medication! I was down to my last dose...”
She went to grab the package, but Jen held it out of her reach.
“Promise me you’ll let me know you’re low on them before you ever become that desperate again. Deal?”
Gakdra faltered, her gaze suddenly gluing itself to the floor. Jennifer winced, swiftly holding the package back out to her.
“Sorry; that was mean. You know I’d never withhold your meds from you like that monster in the pharmacy…”
Gakdra sighed, shaking her head as she took the proffered medication, the weight of guilt heavy on her shoulders as she shrunk into herself on the couch.
“…I’m sorry/regretful/bad-feeling too. I- …I s-should have told you. Moreover, I should have gone out with you again for these, to get them from another-”
“Buttercup, it’s ok. I more than understand you being reticent to the idea of walking into another pharmacy any time soon. There are plenty of other ways to help you get out of the house.”
Gakdra still couldn’t meet Jennifer’s warm gaze.
“…I’m sorry you have to put so much effort into me…”
Jen’s eyes widened for a moment, but she just sighed and sat down next to Gakdra.
“I’d move mountains for you without a second thought. You know that.”
Jennifer gently lifted Gakdra’s head from its place on one of the couch cushions and rested it on her lap, beginning to softly run her fingers through the quills on her back and scalp as she went whilst careful not to prick herself with the neurotoxin-coated barbs. The intimate gesture made Gakdra relax, but still tear up a bit.
“You shouldn’t have to. I should be able to move my own mountains. But I’m too weak/unable/feeble to move so much as a pinch of soil… I can’t even go outside without-”
“Accomodations. I know. …And for the millionth time, that’s nothing to be ashamed of. That’s like saying- I dunno, a species incompatible with an oxygen-based atmosphere should be ashamed of needing a personal atmosphere conversion apparatus on Earth, or your species’ own homeworld.”
“But it’s not just the suit! I mean- …you speak to millions every day, if only indirectly, and likely tens, if not hundreds face-to-face. Meanwhile, I’m afraid/fearful/cautious of leaving the house, even when I know I’m taking every precaution feasible, because beyond fearing for the lives of those around me I can’t even handle the most basic of social interactions without turning into a nervous mess! …Compared to you, I’m-”
“Perfect.”
Gakdra glanced up at Jen.
“What?”
“You’re perfect just the way you are.”
“Wh- …I’m an anxious/feardul/frightened wreck, a- …a danger to those around me-”
“And yet, you’re a perfect being in an imperfect universe, and I love you for it.”
Gakdra’s face screwed up in confusion, speechless at the idea, so Jen continued.
“So I can go go up onto the news studio set and speak into a mic whist looking into a camera. So what? It takes barely any effort from me; I’m not afraid of public speaking whatsoever. You want to know why? Because I didn’t grow up with the burden of having to avoid all but the most necessary of social interactions for the safety of others, and thus got the privilege of plenty of worry-free practice.
“…But you? You stepped up and did it too, even though you were inexperienced, even though you were terrified. You were fighting for every word, every breath. …But you still did it, because it could make a difference. That makes you a braver woman than I could ever hope to be, even if you had decided to take my offer to stop; because at least you were willing to try to win a battle against your fears, and that’s more than can be said for most.”
Gakdra just shrugged.
“None of that changes the fact that I’m still a dangethreat/hazard to those around me, not someone who can just walk around like you-”
“So I can go on a walk without a suit. Big whoop. You? You’re willing to sacrifice your own happiness in a million different ways so any potential of that danger whatsoever is completely mitigated down to every redundancy one can think of. Hell, your brain even conditioned itself to be scared of leaving the house, or being near other people, no matter how unhealthy that is nor how much I’ve tried to help you reverse it because you deserve better. …You possess a kinder, gentler, more selfless soul than I could ever hope to have.”
“My happiness is nothing compared to a life! I kill everything around me, unless they’re willing to risk their life anyway with an inoculation, like you did…”
“That’s not your fault. You didn’t wake up one day and choose to kill, like that psycho from the pharmacy did.”
Gakdra shuddered as she recalled the image of her foster father’s lifeless corpse on that terrible night, so many years and uncountable tears ago. Her next words came as an emotionally exhausted whisper.
“Perhaps he is right/correct/factual to fear and hate us saryncites...”
Above her, Jen let out a quiet sigh.
“God, I love you so much, but you are so infuriating sometimes… You’re too kind to disagree with even the worst the universe has to offer.”
She pulled Gakdra into a hug, albeit after carefully flattening her quills a bit first.
“If that repugnant, self-righteous wannabe serial-killer had to walk a mile in your shoes, deal with every restriction and burden you place upon your own shoulders, be they physical or mental? I guarantee you, he’d crack within a week and go even more crazy than he already is.”
“He doesn’t have to deal with that responsibility though. I do. I’m more dangerous than a thousand serial killers...”
The embrace around Gakdra’s form tightened, causing her to let out a small squeak of surprise, not unlike a dog toy.
“And that only proves your strength more. People like him? They could never bear that burden. They’d weaponize their nature, if anything. Barge into a crowded shopping center or something without a suit, killing all around them, because if the rest of the universe- in his eyes, his “lessers-” …don’t have to deal with the burdens he was born with by the cosmic roll of the dice, why should he?”
Jen released Gakdra from the bear-hug, instead choosing to gently rest a hand against her face as she continued.
“Did I ever tell you why I decided to tutor you in the first place?”
She winked.
“…Beyond being the prettiest girl in the entire school, I mean?”
Gakdra couldn’t help but smile and blush at this, despite the utter nadir of a mood she was in.
“Not that I can remembethink/parse, no.”
“I was in study hall with you, working on some math or science homework or whatever, and I happened to look over to your side of the room. Behind the barrier, you were messaging your parents, and I could just barely read what you were writing at that distance. I know I should have turned away, respected your privacy, but what you were writing only drew my interest more.
“You were arguing with them about the possibility of getting a tutor. You said that you shouldn’t get help with your schooling, no matter that you were years behind everyone else in some areas; that it was bad enough you were in school in the first place, that you were too dangerous, and it was unfair to whoever might teach you.
“…You were so, so willing to screw yourself over in the long run to keep those around you safe, to the point of risking not graduating on time. All so you could sit in your room completely alone for a few extra hours a day, and be less of a risk to people.”
Jen leaned in and gave Gakdra a long kiss, relishing the tingling, numbing feeling the toxins on her lover’s lips gave her as they were neutralized by her inoculation. When she broke away, she smiled as she spoke.
“I fell completely and utterly in love with you that day. Not who you were on the surface- no matter how drop-dead gorgeous you were, and remain now- you. The person. The kind soul behind that pretty face. And I vowed I would do everything I could to get you where you wanted in life, because it’s the least you deserve for being the kind, wonderful, beautiful soul you are.”
Jen’s eyes twinkled as she looked upon the pretty face in question, wondering for the millionth time how she had managed to land a girl so out of her league in every possible way.
“You’re the closest thing to perfection in an imperfect universe I’ve ever come across. …And for that matter, the best evidence for said universe being inherently imperfect is that everyone isn’t more like you.”
Gakdra was speechless for nearly a minute after Jennifer ended, with the pair passing that time just gazing into each other’s eyes.
“…I love/need/soul-match you, Jen.”
“I love you more, Buttercup.”

$28500
Is this a good deal? I also got a deal $65 bucks cheaper with lifetime powertrain warranty, 4 years maintenance free, tint floor mats, backup camera and blackout emblem package but it’s a hour away. Should I keep shopping a better deal or jump on this one?

2024.04.19 04:29 Scared-Tell355 FS: 58cm All-City Nature Boy

hey y'all, i'm trying to sell my 2014 nature boy. it's in excellent shape and i love the bike, but it's a bit too big for me and i've decided to let it go. it's currently got mismatched wheels but i can swap the rear wheel out with one to match the front(shimano r500). asking $800 cash, i'll consider trade+cash for a 56cm surly steamroller frameset though. thanks for looking :)
Parts:
-700×42 Wtb Resolutes
-Shimano R500 front wheel
-Aforementioned custom built rear wheel or Shimano R500
-175mm Sugino RD2 crankset w/42t chainring (18t surly rear cog)
-Tektro mini v-brakes with Tektro drop bar levers
-Nitto Noodle drop bars with weird fun bar tape
-WTB Volt saddle
-random unidentified seatpost
-Dimension stem
-Velo Orange Grand Cru headset (the poor man's Chris King)

2024.04.14 22:59 NYMeridian3 Seat Gap fillers for '24 Crosstrek

These Amazon reviews aren't great. Half the time they don't say what car they have and the "does it fit" filter is wrong half the time.
Can anyone recommend a seat gap filler that has a cup holder like this? I only want a passenger side one for extra storage.
Thanks, fellow 'Trekers!

2024.04.08 18:36 Severe-Mycologist-43 Technophobe question

I've done 4* Technophobe in Heavy, Antimatter, Evil, Magic and Standard. Now i start with 5 Soulgems, and my thermal collectors give 145. According to the wiki theres another increase to 6 soul gems, collectors to 150 and more custom race complexity.
Do i have to do 4*techophobe in micro aswell, even if it says i won't get credit for it? How do i get the final upgrade? As i said i even did it once in standard, which did nothing as expected.

Well..this sucks..
Context: I decided to boot up BL2 to eridium farm on my level 42 Gaige for Digistruct Peak. When I loaded into the main menu it lagged extremely bad for about 20 seconds before returning to normal. Out of muscle memory I pressed continue game. What I failed to realise was that the game gave me a level 1 Axton. I save quit then load my Gaige and accidentally load into TVHM (I was doing 100% completion on side quests in normal mode) and it sent me to the Claptrap cutscene in the beginning of the game. I decide to open my inventory and went to my BAR (badass rank) Turns out I lost EVERYTHING. My BAR was wiped as was my share locker and all unlockable skins for characters and vehicles(excluding my SHiFT code skins). While it could've been way worse like idk wiping everything it still sucks. I already save quitted and reset the game multiple times with no luck. Handsome Jack strikes again

HONG KONG, Feb. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NASDAQ-listed, AGBA Group Holding Limited (“AGBA” or “the Company”), the leading one-stop financial supermarket in Hong Kong completed a private placement (the “PIPE”) of ordinary shares of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) with an institutional investor, AGBA’s Group President, Mr. Wing-Fai Ng and AGBA’s management team.
The Company anticipates to receive gross proceeds of approximately $5,128,960 at the closing of the PIPE, in consideration of 7,349,200 Ordinary Shares, and Warrants to purchase up to 1,469,840 Ordinary Shares at a purchase price of $0.70 per Ordinary Share and associated Warrant.

The successful completion of the private placement is a significant milestone for AGBA. This demonstrates the trust and confidence that both external investors and our Management have in our company's franchise strength and growth potential. The private placement was particularly noteworthy as it was executed at a price significantly above the market price of AGBA ordinary shares.

The infusion of new capital at this opportune moment will put us in a supreme position to capture growth that we now see coming in 2024.”

2024.02.02 17:07 Regeneric KP Liberation doesn't work on Linux dedicated server, hosted locally, on Linux PC, works fine.

Hi,
I've got a problem with KP Liberation that I want to play with my friends. I use Linux dedicated server to host my game. It's an LXC container with Ubuntu 22.04. I also use LinuxGSM to setup everything.
The problem is: when I want to play KP Liberation on Altis, game says respawn disabled because Role unspecified and will be chosen automatically. Here's screenshot: https://imgur.com/LhE1l42 Also, it always gives me Picture res\flag_kp_co.paa not found in the beggining, and this points me to the conclusion, that the whole problem is about forward vs backslashes.
When I tried to host it using my PC, that also run Linux and Arma 3 works here via Proton, it works like a charm.
I tried 100% vanilla server install, without any mods but with no success. Any ideas what's wrong here? Do I have to use Proton to host my game?
Script to rename everything to lowercase letters: ```bash

!/bin/bash

depth=0 for x in $(find . -type d sed "s/[/]//g"); do if [[ ${depth} -lt ${#x} ]]; then let depth=${#x} fi done
echo "The depth is ${depth}" for ((i=1;i<=${depth};i++)); do for x in $(find . -maxdepth $i grep [A-Z]); do mv $x $(echo $x tr 'A-Z' 'a-z') done done ```
My startup command: bash ./arma3server_x64 -cfg=net.cfg -config=server.cfg -mod=mods/we/want -loadmissiontomemory

Haul from a few places in my school’s town. Lots of very pleasant surprises.
Picked these up from Walmart, Big Lots, and Kroger. Kroger not only had a pleasant surprise with the premium Batmobile, but also five TH Time Shifters. Picked up two for myself and my brother, but the other three are still there for the taking. The gold Lambo Gallardo and moving parts Corvette were sweet finds too, courtesy of Walmart.

1. News From BC and About BC Transit & TransLink :
Bus strike started in two Vancouver Island Transit Systems
Campbell River and Comox Valley ( Unifor Local 114 )
Based on similar bus strikes over the last two years it looks like
It will be a long strike. Residents should contact their politicians
ASAP and maybe we will have a short strike??
Buses serve the City of Campbell River and Strathcona Regional District (Area D) along the Island Highway between Ocean Grove and Oyster River. Buses serve the City of Courtenay, the Town of Comox, the Village of Cumberland and Electoral Areas A, B and C. of CVRD

3. From The Past :
Evolution of a transit authority ( Vancouver Sun Feb. 13, 2014 )
https://vancouversun.com/news/metro/evolution-of-metro-vancouvers-translink-transit-authority
George Puil was wrong. GVRD-Metro Vancouver should be in charge like they did from 1979 to 1983.
Like every major Metro Area in canada-US where regional or city governments are in charge.
The Regional District of Nanaimo ( RDN ) has been in charge since 1969.
TransLink is not a regional government; it runs like BC Ferries.
Without proper governance, $Money is being wasted by TransLink and its 10 operating companies..

1. News From BC and About BC Transit & TransLink :
Bus strike started in two Vancouver Island Transit Systems
Campbell River and Comox Valley ( Unifor Local 114 )
Based on similar bus strikes over the last two years it looks like
It will be a long strike. Residents should contact their politicians
ASAP and maybe we will have a short strike??
Buses serve the City of Campbell River and Strathcona Regional District (Area D) along the Island Highway between Ocean Grove and Oyster River. Buses serve the City of Courtenay, the Town of Comox, the Village of Cumberland and Electoral Areas A, B and C. of CVRD

3. From The Past :
Evolution of a transit authority ( Vancouver Sun Feb. 13, 2014 )
https://vancouversun.com/news/metro/evolution-of-metro-vancouvers-translink-transit-authority
George Puil was wrong. GVRD-Metro Vancouver should be in charge like they did from 1979 to 1983.
Like every major Metro Area in canada-US where regional or city governments are in charge.
The Regional District of Nanaimo ( RDN ) has been in charge since 1969.
TransLink is not a regional government; it runs like BC Ferries.
Without proper governance, $Money is being wasted by TransLink and its 10 operating companies..

1. News From BC and About BC Transit & TransLink :
Bus strike started in two Vancouver Island Transit Systems
Campbell River and Comox Valley ( Unifor Local 114 )
Based on similar bus strikes over the last two years it looks like
It will be a long strike. Residents should contact their politicians
ASAP and maybe we will have a short strike??
Buses serve the City of Campbell River and Strathcona Regional District (Area D) along the Island Highway between Ocean Grove and Oyster River. Buses serve the City of Courtenay, the Town of Comox, the Village of Cumberland and Electoral Areas A, B and C. of CVRD

3. From The Past :
Evolution of a transit authority ( Vancouver Sun Feb. 13, 2014 )
https://vancouversun.com/news/metro/evolution-of-metro-vancouvers-translink-transit-authority
George Puil was wrong. GVRD-Metro Vancouver should be in charge like they did from 1979 to 1983.
Like every major Metro Area in canada-US where regional or city governments are in charge.
The Regional District of Nanaimo ( RDN ) has been in charge since 1969.
TransLink is not a regional government; it runs like BC Ferries.
Without proper governance, $Money is being wasted by TransLink and its 10 operating companies..

3. From The Past :
Evolution of a transit authority ( Vancouver Sun Feb. 13, 2014 )
https://vancouversun.com/news/metro/evolution-of-metro-vancouvers-translink-transit-authority
George Puil was wrong. GVRD-Metro Vancouver should be in charge like they did from 1979 to 1983.
Like every major Metro Area in canada-US where regional or city governments are in charge.
The Regional District of Nanaimo ( RDN ) has been in charge since 1969.
TransLink is not a regional government; it runs like BC Ferries.
Without proper governance, $Money is being wasted by TransLink and its 10 operating companies..

2023.12.04 15:33 Nyxie_RS My Runescape Wishlist for 2024

Hi everyone, now that it's the Xmas season, there's no better time to wish for the things we want, to come true. Here are some updates I'd like to see in 2024, to keep the game we know and love going strong.
Since I mostly play the game for PvM and fashionscape, I'll split the categories in terms of Cosmetics, Combat/PvM and Other Gameplay (for all other things).
 
A summary of things I'd want to see in 2024 (you can read below for more elaboration on each point):
 
== Cosmetics == 1. More ability overrides 2. Direct sale of cosmetics without gambling/lootboxes 3. Less bulky outfits for female characters 4. More keepsake slots
== Combat/PvM == 1. Minimally 1 Epic boss release per year 2. Necromancy expansion - a different approach to the combat style 3. Bleed fixes for group encounters 4. Improvements to Melee 5. Invention perk diversity as an approach to substyles 6. A rework of Vorago's loot system (possibly controversial but I really want some changes to this) 7. A proper public grouping system
== Other Gameplay == 1. Reduce tedium in clue scrolls 2. Bik pages drop rate adjustment 3. Consumer-friendly hero pass system as an incentive to PLAY rather than to pay 4. More skilling methods that trade resources for speed
 
// ============================== Okay here's the long read for all of the points listed above. I would appreciate your reading, but if you don't feel like investing the time, I understand. ================================ //
 
== Cosmetics ==
1. More ability overrides Sell me more ability overrides. I love customization, I love how it adds flair and expression to how I want my character to look and feel and I am so down bad for it. I would love to see different transmogs for living death because right now, transforming into a scrawny skeleton feels so anticlimactic when you're suppose to be really powerful while the buff is active.
2. Direct sale of cosmetics without gambling/lootboxes Maybe it's time to rethink how sales are done. Build more goodwill with your players and they'll be more inclined to shell out for the game. Sell more risque outfits if need be, bundle it with runecoins/keepsake keys/whatever. If a vice needs to be monetized, I would rather Jagex go down the "sex sells" route than the predatory gambling/lootbox system.
3. Less bulky outfits for female characters A market for more casual cosmetics definitely exists looking at how many players go for the default clothing look. I like mixing and matching outfit pieces, and bulky outfits not only look bad on female characters, they also tend not to go well with pieces from other sets.
4. More keepsake slots More keepsake slots please! I've been at 100/100 for years now and I've been increasingly reluctant to buy more keys because it's doubly expensive knowing that I will have to remove one of my old keepsakes to make space for a new one. Sell me more slots, sell me more keys. This is a missed opportunity in my opinion.
 
== Combat/PvM ==
1. Minimally 1 Epic boss release per year I would love to see a new boss every year with a good mix of mechanics that requires players to do things. The boss should also drop a multitude of broadcastable items to create hype. Big ticket drops should be consequential to gameplay so that even if the boss fight experience falls short, there is an incentive to grind the boss out for strong rewards (think Telos/Zamorak/Solak). Even better yet, I would love to see a female boss as the next release considering that most of the recent bosses have been male for some reason. Let me fulfil the fantasy of fighting a really strong witch/centauwhatever, for a change.
2. Necromancy expansion - a different approach to the combat style I hope for the release of some new branches of the necromancy talent tree that makes better use of spirits. The bulk of the combat should be through controlling spirits to do different abilities. Necro abilities should direct spirits to do different things rather than have the player directly deal damage themselves. Otherwise it just feels like magic with extra summons. Spirits can also be used more actively to fulfil certain tasks in encounters. Imagine being able to sacrifice some hp to conjure a tank type spirit to act as a base tank, provoking the boss until its hp has been depleted. Solo Vorago could potentially be more fun for more people this way. What about a shielder type spirit that does defensive abilities in your stead. Instead of using reflect like any other combat style, you're able to call your spirit to dash in front of you to reflect damage away with its shield (like Braum from League of Legends).
3. Bleed fixes for group encounters Fix bleeds such that bleeds of the same type doesn't override another player's. Maybe make it so that bleeds of the same type compound (e.g. if 2 players use the same bleed, the bleed's damage is doubled until it expires). Maybe have additional bleeds refresh the duration too.
4. Improvements to Melee Part of what makes me feel that melee is clunky to use is that in many boss encounters it is difficult to do damage to a boss simply because of how dangerous standing close to a boss is. One example is at Seiryu where you have considerably less reaction time to move away from the moving black hands that spawn close to the gap. At certain encounters, there are also areas where it is dangerous to stand at (e.g. Vorkath's poison pools). It feels a lot harder to do consistent damage when you have to keep moving about, sometimes out of melee distance for an extended duration. I would love for melee to receive new dash abilities promoting a hit-and-run combat style. Make melee hyper-mobile to make up for it's short effective distance to deal damage. I don't melee much, but one instance where I enjoyed using melee was using bladed dive with a scythe to clear all the pools at Raksha. There's just something spectacular about zooming around and making things explode wherever you go. Now imagine, if melee had more abilities like that, perhaps even one that allows you to dash in a line, dealing damage to all enemies in your path, how fun it could be.
5. Invention perk diversity as an approach to substyles More perk diversity would be nice. Currently, there is literally only 1 meta set of perks to use everywhere without much opportunity cost. The only decision-making a player would have to do is choosing between the different X-Slayer perks depending on the situation and that's about it. I would love to see a larger variety of perks each with their own opportunity costs. For example I could choose to invest in poison enhancing perks, at the cost of a lowered crit rate because there wouldn't be gizmo slots for crit bonuses and that should feel okay. I want to see players given the agency to build different substyles of combat (e.g. lowered cooldowns, increased mobility, crit-focused, poison-focused, bleed-focused, extra tankiness). We could even have different perks compounding to give a stronger effect than the sum of the individual perk bonuses. Basically, let players build towards a specific combat focus, and I think invention could be a good avenue to make that happen.
6. A rework of Vorago's loot system I understand that this might be a controversial take, but I do feel that Vorago's loot system is quite clunky for the less experienced players. I'll explain why here.
At the moment (normal mode) Vorago has 5 loot piles, each going to different people based on a set criteria. Even though there are 5 piles to roll from, there are instances where not every person in a 5-man team will receive a roll due to being a learner (therefore not fulfiling the role or Dps criteria). In my opinion, I feel that a learner shouldn't be punished for being inexperienced and not get even a single roll due to being lower dps or not taking a tank role. Being ineligble to receive a drop after spending 10 minutes or so in an encounter is very demotivating.
I would also like for the Vitalis rollover mechanic to be changed so there isn't a preference to duo with only Vitalis owners to maximize drop rate. Maybe give Vitalis a more balanced threshold so people aren't so incentivised to save time through gimmicks like these?
Based on the above scenarios, I would love for the loot system to be changed to something like this: - Limit the max number of players in an encounter, but guarantee everyone a roll for drops, just like at Solak. - The total number of tectonic energies should be the same as current, but split among the players in the encounter. - Weapon drops should be based on a fixed probability per encounter, so if a seismic wand is a 1/200 drop, in a 5man encounter each person has a 1/1000 chance of getting one.
I'm aware there will be a fair few people who will not like this system, but yeah feel free to express why you like or dislike this idea. It's just something I would like to have, and most likely won't happen in reality.
7. A proper public grouping system A proper public grouping system for bosses that allows players to join community teams based on their own defined skill level (e.g. learner, hobbyist/casual, professional). Having to join multiple external discord servers to form teams doesn't feel right at all. We have a grouping system in the game, but it's so horribly implemented that it's been relegated to a glorified makeshift friends chat system. I'm not confident that Jagex will do anything about this since the solution has already been externalized, but I can only wish.
 
== Other gameplay ==
1) Reduce tedium in clue scrolls To be perfectly honest, I don't do clues very much. But I definitely welcome more QoL changes to clues, in the event I decide to chase clues someday. Pretty sure the Clue Chasers discord has a whole laundry list of things that they would like to see implemented. (Elite clue improvements anyone?)
2. Bik pages drop rate adjustment Possibly improve the drop rate of bik pages from Croesus. Make it so obtaining 420+ points guarantees a page. Incentivizes small teams and helps the present supply crunch.
3. Consumer-friendly hero pass system as an incentive to PLAY rather than to pay In all honestly, the current (now past) hero pass is not a bad idea. Selling speed-ups is okay but it should not be obscenely time consuming to grind out the pass without buying boosts. Rewards should be entirely cosmetic, and there should be no infinite lootbox system at the end after completing the pass. Having something to encourage gameplay without making players feel like they have to spend extra time to grind-or-miss-out is definitely a boon in my opinion.
4. More skilling methods that trade resources for speed More skilling methods similar to herb farming where more resources are used for marginal xp rate improvements. Good item sink and respects players' time investment. An example could be a sort of "ignition firemaking", where players use fire runes to burn multiple logs at a bonfire at a time. XP rate should be less efficient than burning 1 log at a time, but overall rate per hour should be higher.
 
// ===============================================
== Conclusion == I'm aware that not all of the ideas on my wishlist are good for the balance/integrity of the game. At the end of the day, I just want to see more updates that impact the game in a positive way. Feel free to comment if agree/disagree with these ideas. Perhaps even post your own wishlists too. Maybe some of these ideas are good enough that Jagex will actually implement them for next year. We can hope!

2023.11.07 20:05 eugeniox AI + NoCode: I build and deploy a Library Management System from scratch, without coding [full tutorial]

Hi,
I've just published a video tutorial https://youtu.be/iRLCns6T7Ps where I show the creation, customization and deployment of a Library Management System using AI and NoCode tools.
The app is created in AppifyText.ai and then DaDaBIK is used to further customize it and deploy it to a domain I registered for this tutorial: dada-library.com (the resulting app is still live there).
I hope this can be interesting for this community.
There will be other episodes, I will improve the app. Any suggestions for features to implement or particular aspects to discuss in the next episodes is very welcome.
Eugenio
