Hey it’s Monday!

So I’m in the middle of this story arc that features Big Oonch and it dawns on me how hard it is to write Oonch’s dialogue. I committed long ago to the gag that he speaks as though he’s constantly narrating his life. It works well enough in short doses, less so as the main character in a story line. His lines are longer as a result and I’m already wordy to begin with. In a medium where space is at a premium, long lines can be problematic. We’ll see how things go as the story develops. Maybe Oonch will evolve a bit.

I talked about diving into the rabbit hole last week. I bought a booster of the Cardcaptor Sakura expansion of Weiss Schwarz. I’d heard tell of the rarity system and it worried me. As it turns out though, the really rare cards all seem to be variants of the cards in the main set. One booster box netted me 88 of the 100 base cards and I can do without the variants, so this won’t be so bad after all. I can get the cards I’m missing for less than the price of another booster box. Problem solved. Woot!

In other gaming news, we lost the final game in our Too Many Bones campaign. We didn’t even make it to the final battle. The campaign card we drew for the adventure didn’t leave us a very big margin for error. We lost one battle and the next day’s even didn’t offer us the opportunity to gain a progress point so that was it. It was a really disappointing way to end things. Oh well. On to another campaign!

That’s it for this week! Have a good seven and we’ll do this all again next Monday. Carja V.
