"What do you like to play?" asked the bear.
"Four #square."
"We can probably do that."
Brunhilde looked up, eyes shining.
"Let's go replicate a ball," the bear said.
She waited outside the Workshop and he emerged a few moments later with a large ball. He bounced the ball to her. (2/3) #wss366

"Hey! Hey!" Brunhilde said to the bear. "How come you don't have any play stuff here?"
"This is the Volpex Picnic Park," the bear explained. "For play equipment, you should go to a Children's Park."
Brunhilde looked down and scuffed her feet.
"That's what my mom said." (1/3) #wss366

This comment is apropos this place my wife found today.

After dinner, we visited the Scantic River Brewery and I got a flight to try the IPAs. Both the DIPAs are quite good! #beer

General Mandarin's Pizza — chicken & broccoli with General Gao's sauce — a fusion dish at Parfumi in Wilbraham. Delicious! #WesternMass

This hiking trail would probably have been much better if it were cat-guided.

The crime scene investigators entered Club Bukake. Wearing special glasses and using an ultraviolet light, they checked carefully for clues.
"I'm seeing a lot of biological material here," one said, indicating stains on the furniture. And floor. "What do you think it could be?"
"I'm not sure," said the other. "It doesn't looks like blood. Or mucus."
"Saliva?"
"I don't think so. It's some other kind of bodily secretion."
"Take some samples. We can check when we're back in the lab." #wss366

The Butter Angels got up blearily and looked around in surprise, only then recollecting the events of the day before.
"C'mon, Angels," Susan said, sticking out her hand.
They made a circle and all put a hand in for their daily ritual.
"Let's get cookin'!" they all said in unison. (2/2) #wss366

In the morning, the sun shone in through high windows in the storage room and illuminated the space. Booboo groaned and rolled over in Zsazsa's arms. They always slept together. Zsazsa kissed her gently.
"Rise and #shine, Darling," she said. (1/2) #wss366

When the fruits open, there's a gush of liquid and these cool seeds come out.

Reflecting on how things went during the past month as we move into fall… https://stevendbrewer.com/before-and-after-the-fall/ #ScribesAndMakers #WritersCoffeeClub

Steaming and smoking, it slowly slipped below the waves.
"Which way?" Zaza asked.
"Bebe wants to go that way!" Bebe said, pointing at the tropical island that emerged from behind the SkyHopper as it sank.
Spectators at the beach resort cheered as they swam in. (4/4) #wss366

Zaza sprang to her feet and slapped the hatch control. She and Bebe leapt into the water. Tau hung back and whined.
"Don't be such a baby!" Zaza called.
Tau finally leapt and emerged sputtering and snorting the water out of his nose.
They swam away and looked back at the SkyJumper. (3/4) #wss366

She pulled one over Tau's massive shoulders and buckled the strap around his waist.
They braced for the impact. When they struck the water, the gravity generator could not fully compensate, and they were thrown forward against the bulkhead, but escaped with only minor bruises. (2/4) #wss366

Klaxons sounded in the cockpit as the SkyJumper, streaming smoke, rapidly lost altitude.
"We're going to have to #ditch in the ocean!" said Zaza.
Tau barked, nudging the life preservers.
Zaza and Bebe put theirs on.
"Bebe will help you!" Bebe said. (1/4) #wss366

The Better Angels are non-human biological androids that look like pre-teen girls. They were developed by the Magicorps corporation via a clean-room re-implementation of the human genome, but contain no human DNA. You can find the Better Angels on the Truck Stop at the Center of the Galaxy: https://truckstop.waterdragonpublishing.com/product/better-angels-tour-de-force/

It's a good evening for #writing in my tent. I'm working on *Tablelands* a new dark fantasy story.
