One had to know how to use one's tools…
Against the backdrop of our current stage, as we continue to turn the page, what would happen as the novel [and everyone!?] entered a new age?
Aultork Nowok - and others like him, of his particular kin - was proceeding with his political campaign…
Darken Mysterius was proceeding on a somewhat different lane - aiming to enact Operation "Unity of Thought" via LEAF 🍀 - but would this… actually eventuate, or would it come to grief?
Itvasme wanted to wait and see, even as she received the message from 'BG123', regarding the last remaining piece of the EVP Blueprint Technology…
Sally had received the message too, even as the sweetness of her inner world as Allie, and the… unique 'challenges' that… came with her being somewhat too amazing 🫢✨… grew.
Arroe Gant. Meatius Maximus. The PPV. This was also apparently a thing, that would be - literally - soon getting into full swing…
Valentine Richést was researching H2.0 💦- the Future of a Humanity, that wanted to know… where exactly should… or could Humans - as a species, and as People - go?
A certain… Lucy was helping him, whether he currently knew it or not… slowly but surely… come to a conclusion, even as she was clearing away her own personal confusion, regarding what it was she wanted to do, after taking time to think things through ✨.
Meanwhile… Mor Mun Ni was planning on making Lucy his… doorway, to daddy Scroogeux's empire, and with his expensive diamond ring, would love really be… 'such an easy thing'?!?!
A certain 'top Santa Claus' was also making his way, after literally upheaving his geriatric nursing home tray, and it seemed, that Nicklaus Claus might have something to say, about [almost…!] becoming a part of Mor Mun Ni's money-making schemes - and indeed, one might say that it had been a… rather close shave… 🫢✨🤭
Jake and or Judas had now completed the [Special Investigation] File save, and was heading to his 11am meeting with a certain… Fatteus Slacké, after which, perhaps, his life might, weirdly… hopefully… get back on track?!
The rotund Police Chief Commissioner in question, had, as usual, quite a fair bit on his plate, but dealing with the Dark Rizzards [and Ly Ly, who was, unbeknownst to him, gaining traction…] was of course, his current first course… of action…
and at any rate, speaking of first… surely a fairly fit officer called Phitnus Firsté would be the perfect fit to, as always, deliver the goods?
But they all weren't quite yet out of the woods 👀✨. A brilliant Detective, Carmen Composéd had seemingly, put together two and two… although the question now, was… what would she do!?!?
Even Author knew… little of what would happen, even as he, along with the Audience and the esteemed readers leveled up too!?!?
There were far more, besides, that could be mentioned in this aside, for example the ARSES, Tristen, Rowena, and Pope Doris and Reverend Eli from the Church of the Seven Deadly Sins…
Not to mention Hugo, Jill, and a particular [Aphrodisiac of Unlimited Potency 👀✨] pill… would they get their own particular wins?
Speaking of 'wins' 🤔✨, Desmond Potté had seemingly gotten his fill, although he had surely… foot-ed a hefty bill, but was there more to be written in his story still?? [… 👀✨]
Even a certain Yoga practitioner called Derek, and his journey to reach 'Inner Peace'…
Things seemed to be building towards a sweet release… !?!?
The edging and gooning to these multiple slowly… undulating storylines…
Surely, making the tease and buildup for this long was considered some kind of crime!?!?
Aah. And yet. Perhaps this was part of the fun, knowing that, one by one, the pieces would fit into place, to enjoy the journey at just the right pace… one should smell the roses along the way right, there was no need to race!
And this now brings us back to a certain place… indeed, the guy who was [allegedly meant to be] the very face of the novel…
Bob!!!!!?! Where was he and what was he doing?!?! Even as all these [admittedly yummy!?] ingredients were brewing…
