So, I had meant to keep this blog up like a good girl, but some things have happened recently that have made it hard.
My household has been cut drastically by things beyond my control - I lost both my dog Rowan and old cat, Yowler, within a week of one another. Both of them were getting on in years. Rowan had been suffering from various health problems that started with disseminated Valley Fever roughly a year ago, and ran the gamut through weight loss, IBD, and bladder issues. Yowler was quite old for a cat (17 years.) and was suffering from kidney failure.

Hypothetical Monday: Salamander's Choice
I'm gonna try this out, so I'm at least posting every Monday. Hypothetical Monday is a story telling sort of thing, and I'm going to give you a story. You tell me what you would do. It's somewhat like Kokology - but a little more wordy, and maybe less insightful.
There are no correct answers. There are however, outcomes. This isn't a reflection on you - this is actually how the story worked out. I'm mostly interested in seeing what people chose, since I agonized with them as well, either in writing or in dreams.
An Addendum: I will, for now, post the outcomes (along with my own decisions,) and other bits from interesting responses on Saturday. This gives you time to answer, and me time to post!
You are an elite adviser and confidant to the king. Through your actions, his kingdom was saved
from a terrible evil, and through your friendship, he has become a very beloved
king, and you an important bridge between his kind and your own. Your kind is long lived, but you are tiny in
stature in your current form. Should you
choose, you can transform into a salamander of fire, your spiritual form. This makes you somewhat larger and
formidable, but your fire cannot be controlled easily.
During the trials you faced with your lifelong friend the
king, you now hold the token of future kingship - a weighty medallion that is
given to the king's son when he is chosen to succeed his father. You cannot keep the medallion and become king
- it would be absurd for one of your kind to rule over his kind, and you have
no desire for the weight of kingship your friend took upon himself at the end
of your trials. You must choose one of
the king's sons.

Hen Apron
I wanted to spend some time with some friends today, seeing as my birthday was yesterday. But my dog has yet to really recover from his trip to the Veterinary Specialist (VSCT, in Tucson, I highly recommend them) after a 4th of July trip to the same hospital for an emergency visit. Poor guy is having urinary issues, and the main treatment is some drugs that also happen to make him very drowsy and clumsy. Since he fell twice this morning, and has been a bit incontinent today, I decided it was better to be home with him.
Which sort of works out, because I do have some things to work on. Like Hen Aprons.
