Game Called on account of rain

[cornerofmadness]

I had planned to go to the botanical garden. Yesterday Accuweather and the weather channel said no rain today. this morning they said 90% rain which was MUCH more accurate. It rained way too much to go to a garden. I am a bit worried about my apartment because Gallipolis flooded. And I got multiple texts from the Jackson sheriff. FOUR culverts were burst by the flooding and one bridge is gone.


I did manage to finish the edits for one story (haven't sent in anything in 2 months) and will hopefully send tonight and edited partially through another.

I was going to do the sunshine thing tonight but I am tired and I've had lemon drop martinis and my tooth hole hurts so have the fannish friday 50 recs

I'm sorry you missed out on the garden and that there was so much damage from the rain! But yay for getting your stories edited/partially edited!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. The garden will be there but the temps...

Felt good to send in that story (it was for the Michelle Trechenberg memorial anthology)

Yes ...

Here it's been raining for hours. A beautiful day to stay indoors and write!

>>I am a bit worried about my apartment because Gallipolis flooded. And I got multiple texts from the Jackson sheriff. FOUR culverts were burst by the flooding and one bridge is gone.<<

O_O Yikes.

I would be happy with a nice gentle writing friendly rain but this stuff nobody wants and man in OH/PA at least (IN too I think) has had rain 3 days a week consistently since March. If nothing else our water tables are doing well

A couple of nights ago, there was thunder and lightning one night and then it rained the following day! So far as I know, only my dad noticed any of those things, but my mom and I didn't want to go walk around Eastbrook Park after that show (this is a usual thing for us).

And thank you for the Ace Attorney fic rec!

[cornerofmadness]

You guys could probably use the rain. Wish I could give you some too bad about not getting in a stroll after the show

you're welcome. I tend to just rec whatever comes thru my subs (since I figure those people are either friends or writers from other fandoms I liked) even if I don't know the fandom

[suzume]

Eh, it's been okay rain-wise. Less than last year, but that was a "big" rain year.

Ha ha, yeah, I didn't think you knew about Ace Attorney, but it is a much-loved fandom of mine, so there's that.

[cornerofmadness]

I see Ace Attorney around on the fandom challenges but no I've not seen it.

[suzume]

Okay, first Ace Attorney was a series of three games (and then a fourth) and they were SOOO fun!

And then they made an anime of it, which doesn't start out strong, but gets better as it goes on...!

[cornerofmadness]

okay good to know. I didn't realize it started as a game

[suzume]

Yeah, they were really fun. (and then a 5th and 6th game followed, but I'm not sure they were by the same writer, and Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright (which was waaay too difficult for me, so I had to play the entire game with guide at my side) and finally the Great Ace Attorney, which went back in time to the early Meiji period with the same writer from the first 4 games)

The gist of it all is this: Phoenix Wright becomes a defense attorney because his childhood friend (Miles Edgeworth) became a prosecutor and seems so different from how he was a child (all this stuff is basically revealed in the first game).

[cornerofmadness]

ah okay. it's an interesting setting. Ugh to that. I had a game like that where I needed the guide to do everything. That isn't all that fun

[suzume]

It was definitely an annoying experience! I would go through three pieces of dialogue and Professor Layton would say something along the lines of 'That reminds me of a puzzle!' And I'd be: "Not another one! Argh! >:O"

[cornerofmadness]

oh geez. in my case it was some hospital horror hidden object thing where you also had to solve puzzles and it didn't do hints and it was insane. L iterally had to keep reading the walk through and I'm like WHY am I bothering

[suzume]

I think I had gotten to a far enough point in the game where I felt like I just HAD to finish it. Definitely the Ace Attorney game I won't be playing again!

[cornerofmadness]

I feel ya. And I don't blame ya.
