Welcome Back!

Hello friends! Long time no see! And while that is entirely my fault because I am a horrible combination of kinda lazy and busy as snot with all my assorted life experiences, I’m back motha’ frackers! It’s good to see all your shiny, smiling faces once more as we dive right into this report. So join me, fellow space folk, as we boldly go where no space folk have gone before… wait… wrong series. Oh well! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

News

Brotherhood News

Quite a few things have happened Club wide that may affect you. Be sure to check them out.

• RoS: The Results!: The results are in! And in case you haven’t seen or heard by now, Arcona took a very close second to our best frenemies, the Odanites. Thank you all for participating where, when, and how you were able to. Even if it was just a flash game or a puzzle here and there, we couldn’t have done this without each and every one of you and your efforts.

• Your humble gaming overlord, Drac, is looking for two new minions magistrates to join his team! If you’re interested, check out the requirements in the latest P:FIST Report where you will find all the necessary koalafications and where you need to send them in order to be considered for the post. I encourage all of you to at least look into it. There are excellent opportunities all around you. Applications are due by the January 15th so jump on it, kids!

Clan News

With RoS wrapped up nice and neat with a pretty bow on top, be on the lookout for a wrap-up fiction for the latest episode of Sins, courtesy of Atty (Satsi) and Terran! We should be seeing that at some point in the future time. Probably after all the Life Day/Sithmas shenanigans. (Spend time with your families you two. No working. :p)

Q & A

This month on #AskTheBlueberry:

Wally asked:

What character traits does Leeadra have that you don’t see in yourself? Are they things you wish you were like, or are you content to subject/explore through the character instead?

The biggest thing that is she has that I don’t is her temper. She has a pretty short fuse when it comes to certain things and will explode in your face. That is definitely one of those things that I am satisfied to explore through writing. My massive amounts of sass are enough for me.

Xenna asks:

What are you going to do about the rumors going around saying that the berry is actually more indigo than blue?

I find the best way to stop the rumors are to cut them off at the source. So I cut the source. Who started this rumor? Just curious. whistles innocently

Skar wants to know:

Can I has food?

So long as you aren’t eating my people, that’s fine. Go find some of those Spectre Cell folks. I hear they’re pretty juicy.

Kord asks:

Any favors to ask of the Ryn? Anything for the Voidbreaker that’s necessary? Fresh towels? New uniforms?

I know better than to ask the Ryn for uniforms. That’s a trap. We would definitely appreciate higher quality food rations though. Tali gets grumpy when she’s improperly fed. I’ll double check with the rest of the crew and get back to you for more specific requests.

Qyreia wants to know:

How are you at planning large social and/or ceremonial events?

I feel like this is also a trap. WHY DO YOU PEOPLE DO THIS TO ME?!

Also:

What can your sister House do for you? I feel like we don’t interact enough on an official level.

It would be nice to do some cross-house fiction stuff. Perhaps that’s a thing we can do in the near future. Maybe poke me with a stick sometime and we can make it happen.

The End Is Nigh

Welcome to the end folks! It’s finally over! Sorry about the lack of things lately. I hope as the new year rolls around I’ll have a little more motivation to give you all the love and attention you all deserve. But in the meantime, enjoy your holidays, be safe, and eat all the food. As always, if there are any questions, concerns, or cries for help, feel free to contact me via email ([Log in to view e-mail addresses]) or on Telegram (@LeeadraHalcyon). Until next time. Merry Sithmas you filthy animals.

Stay beautiful,
