A safe place to blather

I love having this other blog. I can get my dork on without giving away any secrets to my livejournal readers.

I'm so ready to get to the end of Peculiar Book One. Not that I'm bored with Peculiar. Quite the opposite. I'm ready to end the first big plot arc and move to the next.

Book One will culminate with the death of Mother XYZ. The way I'm thinking of it now, it will be at the hands of Paul Tech 9 Pollinator. Paul Tech's history with Mother XYZ (in The Community) and having worked for her once on SimEarth makes him a logical choice to do the deed. He's fully aware of what she's capable of (and has a bit of an idea about what she's up to on simEarth).

Paul Tech's also in the perfect position. He knows Mortimer Goth, who's growing cowplants. He's also married to Aggie, who's quite the ametuer botanist and is close friends with Pascal Curious (who's also a bit of a botanist, what with his flower work). Preliminary thoughts have me getting Pascal to gold flower arranging, giving me the snapdragons. He'll realize the soothing effects (useful for raising his twins) and share them with Aggie/Paul (who also have twins). Paul uses "bad" snapdragons to poison Mother and then feed her to a cowplant.

Paul needs someone in the Alien Mansion to help with this. I need a rogue agent. Mother JKL is always available for the highest price. She's approached by nameless military men (who are working with Paul). JKL plants the poison snapdragons which result in XYZ's downfall.

The Government is REALLY who kills XYZ. They've gotten all they want from her and know she's dangerous. They want to remove her and put Circe Sunseri in her place (so Circe will need to make General).

Pascal Curious (who's in law enforcement) is approached by his superiors to spy on Paul Tech. Law Enforcement is more interested in Paul's stealing (he's helping Mortimer get supplies by stealing them from the Government labs) but they have a feeling Paul is up to more (while law enforcement is part of the government--along with the military--they don't work together and often work at cross purposes). Pascal, who never really wanted to be in law enforcement, refuses and is sent packing (with some hush money in the form of a severance package/bought out contract). That gives Pascal the time to dedicate to his flowers (he starts a small business) and raise his sons. He doesn't forget about the law's interest in Paul but doesn't care.

Pascal gets involved with Piquant Pollinator and Lunar Rockette Khillian (thanks to his interest in horticulture) and in a round about fashion becomes a criminal (which leads to him rising quickly in the ranks).

All of this snapdragon stuff has to happen after the next group of updates--the updates in writing will include:

1. Aftermath(tentaive title): Paul examines preggo Percy and Lazlo (which spans two evenings) and then discovers Aggie's pregnancy.

2. Aging: Apollo Khillian becomes toddler while Rocky introduces Piquant to her bubble growing venture. Sven Beaker becomes toddler while Zondek gets closer to his grandfather, Paul Tech.

3. Abe at The Club: Abe gets closer to Zephyr much to Don's ire. He plots a way to get rid of Abe which ties to. . .

4. Daniel Pleasant gets back with Frances Worthington. Miles and Lakishmi's engagement revealed through a meeting with Zoey and Jasmine (with preggo Percy and Lazlo). Plan for a reception once babies arrive (after M/L and Z/J married).

5. Mortimer Goth meets Bella Grigri. Bella is to work with Mortimer, helping him write up his research. Mortimer meets Bella's friends, twins Almeric and Aldric. Cowplants revealed. (this could tie in with #2--make it a horticulture themed update, with Mort's plants, Pascal's flowers, and Paul's involvement).

6. Kittens and aging: Piquant has to give away her kittens (which causes Albert to reveal his trauma to Pascal). Zondek and Robert age to teen (preggo Aggie visits Stella--see story through their convo). Apollo Khillian and Spencer Sunseri become children (and kittens become cats).

7. Births: final kitten becomes cat right after Percy delivers babies. Leads to births of all three preggos.

8. Abe arrives at PAP household (that's still shaky, but I want to end this round with him arriving, needing a place to stay).
