I just got to spent fifteen minutes entertaining my office getting a phone scammer to ask me to be his girlfriend when I threatened to report him to the cops.

The problem with my path as it exists is that there's nobody around who can really tell me "yes you did the thing." There's no external confirmation. I feel like the guy in Ultra-Spiritual Life saying, "Can you see how the moon and me are the same thing?" while he's getting his vine on. I have only my own confidence that I'm not flying away into space to hold me down.

I _have_ that confidence. I just wish I had more than that, sometimes.

When I originally settled on the title "magister" after http://orrery.prismaticmedia.com/2017/02/25/%cf%84%ce%ad%cf%87%ce%bd%ce%b7/, I chose it because I thought it a better alternative than "master," and "mistress" had kink contexts I didn't want to overload.

Tonight, reading old magical notes, I found Frater Pyramidatus' Glossary of Thelema. "Magister: The lowest Grade in the S⸫ S⸫ of A⸫ A.⸫ ... To attain this Grade one must swear the Oath of the Abyss."

Synchronicity is the universe's way of telling you to shut up and pay attention.

900 more words on this bit. I feel rusty and weak. There's a novel's worth of history to try to cover in a very short span so people don't have to have read the book to make sense of it.

I'm posting this as part one. Part two will have the scene I actually imagined, but hopefully with enough information to let it make sense. It's always hard to write around what people don't know, or think they know. That includes characters in the story sometimes.

OMG Noel Fielding is hosting Season 8 of Great British Bake-Off. =@.@=

1603 tonight. I'm going to leave this here and finish it tomorrow. I spent two hours doing research so I could rebuild my knowledge of Bonds' world. Tomorrow is Labor Day; I can finish this little bit then, and edit my CLAW submission next weekend.

Matska's grace, it feels good to be back in Baris again, but it's so hard to come home again.

"The ghost of Deterikh’s court alchemist roamed the halls of the keep. Some even said that it wasn’t Valentin who’d brought down Datsia, but his slave Taneh, secretly trained in the dark arts."

"It wasn’t Valentin’s rule that unnerved Justik, he decided as he walked his mount to the gate and showed his papers. It was the rumors. Whispers rippled through the streets of Baris, hinting at a story more grainy than Baron Valentin’s porridge-bland pronouncements. Loyalists to the late Captain gathered in every inn. Deterikh’s old diplomat, Dion, hid in half the town’s basements, or in an abandoned mine in the Estuzias, amassing an army of shadows.

"I keep trying to bang these two characters together and they keep insisting on having morals and emotions and stuff to talk about. It's like trying to mash two Ken dolls together and scream NOW KISS!"

"I need a name for that stuff that knights took with them on the Crusades. *wikipedia/startpage* Right! Panforte! Wait, that's Italian/Latin. I could translate, but I don't want to introduce a hapax for slang; nobody'll get it. I need a name. I know, road cakes! Wait, no, that's disgusting. That's actually terrible, buni. Try again."

"Ah, yes. I'm at Panera. I'm going to get some writing done for my Patreon. Wait, I need a character name. I know he has one; I wrote about him in Bonds. I don't want to search WP, but I have the PDF! Wait, I can use Kindle for context searching if I send it to my... how do I... oh, wait, I can upload this other file to my Kindle while I'm here, but now... it's not... okay, I'll just search the PDF. Hang on, I can just backport my content to Scrivener...."

Can we get "MANNING UP" or "ARE YOU MANNING ENOUGH?" on a shirt?
